It was Friday, 11:42a.

It was a clear afternoon and also end of the month. A day that probably, most of employee will love it (what could have been more fun for an employee than having the salary transfered into his account in the weekend? Perfect day for shopping). But, never mind about the shopping-day…

It’s July and no news from Monbukagakusho scholarship. I think I can say that it’s unsuccessful…

Third strike… And I won’t give up.

Ph. D before 35. Professor before 40.

I wrote this short posting last year and it was never published. But now, after it’s over, I boldly publish it.

July 2008:
I was awarded as Lecturer of the year 2008. I, then remember a quote from a famous movie long time ago…
Uncle Ben: “Remember, with great power. comes great responsibility“. [Spiderman, 2002]
Awarded as LOTY 2008 doesn’t mean having great power, but I sense that the same level of responsibility comes like having great power. It’s not easy, thou.

This year, 2009, the award for Lecturer of The Year 2009 goes to my other colleagues. They deserve it… I’m happy for them. I’m also happy that everything is perfect… All the awards go to whoever it supposes to be awarded.
Congratulation for everybody at UMC who win the award. You are the man…!
(dan saya sungguh menikmati bahwa akhirnya semua berakhir dengan indah dan seperti sebagaimana mestinya…)
