Internship

Today, I was shocked by the news that we, the International Relations students, will have our internship program on January, yes January, which means we only have about 6 months left to live as the real college student. Actually, there is rumor saying that the program will start on March or April, but then it's going to be January!!

I already feel scared just by imagining the life of the intern. I'm not ready yet, and I think I will never be... I am afraid of meeting new people, new environment, and new society. I wonder if I could be able to adapt and make friends. I wonder if there is a phobia of such thing. If there is, I am a hundred percent infected by it.

Right now, I already browse about the internship program and I focus on the Korean companies in Jakarta. I write down the list to make it easier to go any further into details later on. The reason I choose Korean companies is I want to make use of my ability in speaking Korean since I will be attending a summer school program next month. I am proud to myself since I can speak several languages; Bahasa, English, Mandarin and later-on-Korean. I believe this will be my plus factor in my CV, I hope.

The 23rd International Youth Forum


On behalf of the National Council of Youth Organizations in Korea (NCYOK), I am very pleased to inform you that you have been selected as a delegate of your country to the 23rd International Youth Forum. 

This morning, I got an email coming from the NCYOK telling me that I've been selected as a delegate of Indonesia to the IYC, yeay! well actually, this program will be held on 22-28 August, which means that I will participate another program just a week after the Summer Program ends. I believe this will be my exciting year ever. Going to Korea for the Summer Program and the IYC at the same time seems like a dream to me. I had been participated in Indonesia Youth Conference before, and it was just great. I just can't wait for the day to come since it will also be my first time going abroad ---and my first flight eveeeeer! Nervous and exciting at the same time. Hope everything will be okay. See you soon, Korea.

한국말

안영하세요. 나는 기나입니다. 나는 대학생입니다. 네대학교는 President University 입니다. 나는 한국말을 공부합니다. 한국말이 어렵지만, 너무 재미있습니다.

I have been learning korean language for 3 weeks. It turns out that my third language will be Korean and my fourth will be Mandarin since I will have Mandarin I, II, II as my subjects for the upcoming semesters. Although, Korean is not one of the official languages of the United Nations, I found it interesting to be learnt since I love watching korean TV and dramas. On top of that, it is my dream to work in Korea, South Korea. So maybe from today onwards, I will be using Korean a little to improve my language skill. Fighting!!

a little chit-chat here

it's been awhile since my last post long ago although the internet service is always available. i don't know why but nowadays i don't feel like to socialize through the social networking. i seldom to to check my neither facebook nor twitter and of course not to mention blogging. then what do i do now?? whenever i click my safari, the first address i come up with is dramacrazy.net or hancinema.net or myasiancinema.com ... as you have already known before that i addicted in watching korean dramas and movies.. so all of this time, i am watching korean drama..

the currently airing dramas that I like the most are Lie To Me, Baby-faced Beauty, 49 Days, and Can You Hear My Heart
not only dramas, my environment here make me to watch some variety show.. Like Idol Army, U-Kiss Vampire, Star King, Running Man, We Get Married and many many others. I was wondering how come the Korean Wave can so successful in influencing teenagers and young adults.

Still, regarding to the word of Korea matter, i think i haven't told you yet that i was applying to the Kyung Hee Fellowship of Korean Studies 2011. it is an opportunity to study Korean (language) in Kyung Hee University, Seoul. And the most important thing is that it provides scholarship. Having that kind of information, my desire to go to Korea attack! haha so, to make the story short, i applied the registration with the hope that i can be able to get the scholarship so that i can fly to Korea!!! DAE~HAN~MIN~GUK!!!

aah! all of the korea matters forget me of telling you that right at the moment, i am in my third semester of my college studies!! yippiy! As you noticed that I take International Relations as my major and I choose Strategic and Defense Studies as my concentration. The subjects is killing me. there are a LOAD of assignments, papers, essays and presentation. I hope I can be on the "safe" zone this semester. Pray for me!!

new year, new life, new story

I know that this is my first writing in 2011. Therefore, first I'd like to welcome the year of rabbit!!
happy new RABBIT year and welcome 2011
. It's been a while since my last post .. you know why .. I will always blame those ASSignments for making me totally tired. And then, I have a LOT of things I need to tell you, lovely readers (but I don't think there is a single person who'd like to read my blog since I know no one here, except my bestgirls).

FIRST, I have been working at Kompas Gramedia as a sales and marketing assistant. How cool is that?? hehehe. But it's not exactly what you think. I don't go to the office and do something that it should be. So what am I working? Well, it's so simple, I just have to make customers to subscribe newspapers and magazine monthly as many as I could. And that's it, nothing else. The fee? It's really appropriate :)) aaah you should be wondering why did I come up with the idea of working.. It's because originally we (Shabrina and I) want to have a trip to South Korea at the end of the year.. But later on, we found out that there is something "wrong" with the visa.. So I don't think I can make it this year, huhuhuhu.

SECOND, right now is my second semester here in PresUniv, it means that there are 8 semesters left to graduate. And my classmates are still the same with the previous one, and I take Defense Studies as my concentration while the majority of our class takes Diplomacy. I hope we do still see each other in other class till the end of our study here because You all are WONDERFUL! (like our beloved lecturer, Mr. Makmur, said to us)

THIRD, I had a wonderful event that held by International Relations all batches. It is gathering party and the theme is Hollywood. This gathering party is held in order to give a warm welcoming to the new batch, my batch, batch 2010 of International Relations students. Although we just have 2 classes. The party is so fabulous and not to mention that we paid so much money on it.. but well, it's worth it! That was the first time attend the most fabulous party in my life hehe. And aaah! I like someone there, he was so charming when he performed at the stage haha xp

FOURTH, the night after the gathering party, I was invited to attend "Gebyar BCA" at Indosiar Studio 5. Of course this is my first time too attending an event like that and be inside the television and aired all over the world, I mean Indonesia. hihihi. I saw so many famous actor and actresses that night.

FIFTH, it happened not along time ago, actually, a couple of days ago, there were a celebration ocassion, birthday party. The three of my friends have the same birthdate, and they planned to celebrate it together. They are Cornel, Nike, and Ekky. We had so much fun. We had dinner at nike's house and did karaoke till after midnite. That was so much fun guys! thank you for your entertaining :))

Maybe this post ends here, because I need to study for midterm next monday and do ASSignments again. See you soon xoxo

rutinitas liburan sebelum liburan

liburan sebelum liburan maksudnya jadi belum waktunya liburan tapi gina udah meliburkan diri. hahaha. selama seminggu kurang sesudah ulum tepatnya.

Tiap hari pasti buka laptop, tiduran di atas kasur terus buka facebook, twitter, plurk, blog, ym, mangafox sama browsing drama asia (korea kalo ngga jepang).

Emang ngga ada yang bisa gina kerjain lagi si di rumah. Selama ada internet pas liburan, jam tidur gina berubah. Yang tadinya tidur jam 10 malem bangun jam 5 pagi jadi tidur jam 6 pagi bangun jam 12 siang. Jadi berasa kaya batgirl ni. (hahaha)

Sekedar untuk review beberapa drama yang berhasil gina tonton selama liburan ini adalah

1. HANA KIMI

hanakimi

The drama is based on the popular manga of the same name by Nakajo Hisaya, which has already been dramatized in Taiwan. Horikita plays the protagonist Ashiya Mizuki, a Japanese girl in the U.S. who one day sees the young athlete Sano Izumi (Oguri) compete in the high jump on television. She begins to idolize him, and decides to move to Japan to attend the same school as him. However, Izumi goes to an all-boys school, so Mizuki disguises herself as a boy to achieve her dream of being with her idol.

Review:

Ceritanya lumayan lucu. Tapi potongan rambut Oguri Shun di sini sangatlah menyakitkan mata. Kalo nonton film ini pasti mikir ini mirip sama SHE’S NOT THE MAN. Emang si engga beda beda jauh, tapi yang ini lebih lucu.

2. COFFEE PRINCE

1stprince

Alternative Title: 커피프린스 1호점 / Coffee Prince

Genre: Comedy, Romance

Film Date: July, 2007

The life of Go Eun Chan (Yoon Eun Hye) is not easy; she works many jobs to pay off debts and even gave up her feminine image. Choi Han Kyul (Gong Yoo) is the heir of a big food company, but his grandmother wants him to settle down, so she arranged many dates for him. After Eun Chan bumped into Han Kyul and was mistaken for a boy, Han Kyul decided to hire Eun Chan to be his gay lover in order to avoid the arranged dates. Desperately in need of money, Eun Chan had no choice but to accept. Han Kyul’s grandmother also made Han Kyul in charge of a filthy coffee shop in danger of being bankrupt. Eun Chan begged to work at the coffee shop, and not long after, feelings start to spark, except, how would Han Kyul accept his “homosexuality”?

Review:

Bisa dibilang karakter Yoon Eun Hye sangatlah bagus apalagi ditambah sama kecantikannya. Tapi gina masih bingung, menurut gina Go Eun Chan masih terlihat perempuan (mungkin saking cantiknya). Pas gina nonton endingya, disitu mereka bilang “sampai jumpa” (dalam bahasa Indonseia), menurut gina bakalan ada coffee prince kedua atau dinamain coffee princess. Soalnya Choi Han Kyul membuka kedai kopi tersebut untuk Eun Chan. Semoga aja beneran dan pemainnya tetap. Yeah!

Review: cerita dari drama ini sama kaya meteor garden sama hana yori dango. yang beda ini versi koreanya. dibandingkan dari kualitas gambar, menurut gina lebih bagus hana yori dango. jelas sekali jeleknya di biagian awal waktu Go0 Jon Pyo turun dari helikopter dan masih banyak lagi.
