Where are you?
Ke trigger lanjutin cerita karna keinget masa-masa sekolah yg suka nunggak bayaran SPP wkwkwkwk
Dari SD-SMP-SMA, selalu bermasalah setiap kali mau UTS dan UAS karna nunggak trs bayar SPP sekolah. Entah disebut namanya di kelas, ngga dapet kartu ujian atau ujian di koridor kelas. Kocak bet kalo dipikir2, bener2 ditempa mental sedari dini lol.
Setelah pengumuman ditolak SNMPTN, Ayah beneran ngomong serius supaya aku masuk kuliah di negeri karna ekonomi kita lagi gabaik2 aja. Alhamdulillah keterima di UI. Tp ternyata di tengah2 kuliah, Ayah ninggalin duluan:(
That was the turning point. Inget bgt di akhir semester 2016, tetiba tagihan UKT sm denda nunggak 12.5 juta. I vividly remember, 3 hari setelah hari berkabung, aku ke lantai 4/6 Rektorat UI, ke bagian keuangan, nangis2 minta dikasih keringanan gegara gapunya wang wkwkย
Dan setelah itu bener222 jadi scholarship hunter. Setiap malem di asrama UI, *selalu* buka website beasiswa.ui.ac.id buat daftar semua beasiswa. Selama kuliah S1, aku udah ditolak 17 kali oleh berbagai beasiswa dan dapet 4 beasiswa. Cerita lengkapnya ada di blog aku. Aku mau re-post cerita yg masih relevanโฆ
“Udah, kuliah yang bener, belajar yang bener. Urusan yang lain, urusan Ayah”.
That was his response when I asked him whether I could earn money myself by being a private teacher; since my family has faced serious financial problems. Yes, my dad’s taking education seriously as something he values the most. Which is why he always wanted his little girls to do well in their study, without any distractions.
I know how much Ayah struggled by his own to make sure we could access the highest quality of education. If there’s a saying that a dad would do anything for his daughters, yes he does, definitely.

Thank you for teaching me how to fully take my responsibilities in the best way.

And yeah, look at me Ayah! Alhamdulillah I made it to Harvard!!! I know you see it, and you’ll always see me grow up every single day.
I wish you the best place besides Allah SWT there; and please send my sincere shalawat to Rasulullah SAW๐ธ
