A-C-H-I-E-V-E-M-E-N-T-S

Achieving higher level of education has been my goal since I was little. I don't want to only have asssociate degree. I simply want more, simply because I trust my capability. Besides focusing on my academic, I want to be a bussinesswoman. Well, lacking of my bussiness education, I do have my dad and my brother with entrepreneur background, so they will always have my back. Coming from a family who excells in cooking, I'm growing the sense of it. I love to cook, especially baking. My grandmother and my mother don't bake. They love to cook traditional food which what I lack of. So, during holidays, we'd love to cook together, share the knowledge that we have about food, since we have different style of cooking. 

1. Graduated from Medical School with honors.
2. Nailed clinical rotation. Pleased the residents and the attendings. I want the honor to watch amazing operations, or assisting them ( this one is pretty impossible, but, oh well...... )
3. Passed the board exam, take the doctor's oath, I'M A MEDICAL DOCTOR Y'ALL !
4. I want to live up my life, I promise not to tie the knot yet, cos I earn it this far. I want to enjoy all the accomplishment in my life before sharing it with other person. I want to travel as far as I could with my savings, getting wasted ( in a good way, duuuh...... ), and do other stuff I have never done before. 
5. Internship. Well, of course, if you wanted to be a specialist.
6. Work it out! I'm planning to work at a hospital for 2 years and save some money from it for enrolling specialty.
7. Nailed the Admission test for my residency program. Y'all know that Obstetrician Gynecologist is really what I want to become. Please if you happened to read this part, say "amen" to this :D Thank you!
8. 4.5 years of residency completed and I'm becoming an OB-GYN
9. Working in the hospital as a fresh OB-GYN
10. Continue for being a consultant in Reproductive Endocrinology and Infertility ( this one focuses in In Vitro Fertilization ) or Maternal - Fetal Medicine.
11. Own a "calorie friendly" bakeshop next to my own-built-maternal clinic. I also want to add Yoga Class for the pregnant women which will train their muscle during in labour. 
12. I want to be an intern in a short period of time in WHO, focusing about maternal care
13. I also want to earn a Ph.D focusing in Maternal Health from Yale University, United States of America
14. To be honest, becoming a sexologist is a spin off aside being an OB-GYN.
15. I want to be a speaker in any International Medical Conference.
16. I want to do the ROUND THE WORLD TRIP !
17. THE LIST IS ENDLESS AND I JUST WANT TO TYPE OTHER 100 THINGS I WANT TO DO AND BECOME......................................................

You guys probably realized that I haven't listed " Getting married with the loved one and have beautiful and smart kids ". Yea, I WANT TO GET MARRIED SO BAD! But, looking up on myself, I just don't know when. To be honest, I'm just scared that I have to start another chapter of my life with other "human being". I'm scared that my marriage will be screwed up, and I'm also terrified that I will be so selfish to achieve many things that pleased me which will put my family aside. Especially when I have newborns and my career is rising up like crazy, can I manage both simultaneously? beacuse I don't want to have a nanny to take care my kids. I want to make my kids strong and independent, even when their mother is not around. Besides that, I'm just scared of being myself this ambitious, it's just hard to find a perfect husband that will accept the way I am, I think, I behave. There are still many husband who don't allow their wife to work. Imagine that I asked my husband that I wanted to enroll residency ? Even me myself, I'm just not sure. Actually, there are bunch of list actually that scares the shit out me of starting a family.  BUT, I DO WANT TO BE SOMEONE ELSE'S WIFE though :D

Anyways, thank you for reading it. I'm aware that this blog is "dusty" due to the lack of commitments to publish routine posts. 

2015 in a Nutshell

Resolusi yang bener bener dibuat untuk 2015, seriusan ini bukan akumulasi dari resolusi tahun tahun lalu. Semoga apa yang aku tulis disini selalu jadi motivasi dan pacuan buat jadi lebih baik. Walaupun mungkin terkesan ambisius, tapi gapapa lah, terkadang kita perlu dorongan yang kuat gak cuman lisan aja, tapi dari tulisan supaya kita bisa tetap teringat buat jadi lebih baik. Let's go !

1. Jadi Asisten Mahasiswa untuk Skills Laboratory. I love anything practical, especially when it comes to deal with patients. I got an A for my OSCE so I have been really thrilled to prepare the selection. Finger crossed !
2.  Ngga munafik samsek, aku juga pengen banget IPK ku naik, which semester 4 ini IPnya diusahain banget 4. It has been ups and downs for my GPA and I just figured out the best learning style that suits me. JUST FIGURED OUT. Like c'mon Mitha, you're already a second year med student. Well, later is better than never 'aite ?
3. Khusus untuk Januari 2015, #HolidayBakingProject bisa menghasilkan keuntungan sampai 300ribu ! Jadi berawal dari hobi aku yang suka masak, terutama bikin cupcakes, iseng aja waktu itu jualan, eh gak taunya laku banget ! Ditambah kemarin pas World AIDS Day, aku bantuin danus dengan jualan Red Velvet Cupcake with Nutella Filling langsung ludes des des des dan alhamdulillah untungnya 190rb :D 
4. Berat Badan : 60kg. I have never been skinny after 20 years being alive. NEVER. Well, these past 2 years was really challenging. I did lose 7 kilos, but it was like "yo-yo" kind of weighing. So, I'm still looking for other losing weight alternatives, besides using certain product. This semester's holiday, I'm trying to drink 2 litres of water everyday, eat plenty of fruits and sauteed veggies ( the veggies part are kind of hard since I'm really picky of choosing them to eat ), and exercise ! My goal is not only losing the amount of fat in my body, but also keeping my body in shape. So yeah, holiday is the perfect way to apply those stuff, however, the challenge raises up when your mom suddenly cooks something really exquisite above 6 PM. For some girls, 60kg is still A LOT, but not for me. I want to take it slow and try to maintain the weight. Later on, i'm going to lose it up again. 
5. Ikut Summer School di Eropa. WHO DOESN'T TEMPTED TO GO LIKE SERIOUSLY ? Netherlands was my first choice, but as I search other schools which provide summer course as well, like Norway, Denmark, Sweden, and many unexplored countries, I want to go to places I have never been before. Karolinska Institutet in Stockholm, Sweden provide an excellent summer course since its reputation as the leading medical research in europe. Lund University in Sweden is excellent as well, and so does University of Groningen in The Netherlands. It's a lot of choices ! My objective of choosing the school is based on their theme. Nowadays, they offer tropical medicine as the main theme. Of course, most of south east asian students are pretty much up to par in terms of their comprehension in that field of study and will contribute a lot during summer course. Banyak banget yak mikirnya, hahaha, iya tapi kan emang harus dipilih dengan bijak juga, mana sekolah yang gak terlalu mahal juga nge-charge harga coursesnya. STILL, I HAVE TO JOIN THE SUMMER SCHOOL THIS YEAR !
6. Daftar jadi NCORA (?). Kenapa ada tanda tanya-nya, soalnya aku masih bimbang. Setelah gagal nyalonin jadi VLE di CIMSA UGM, bukan berarti aku gak aktif lagi di CIMSA UGM dong. Aku jadi lebih introspeksi diri dan tentunya bisa lebih aktif di SCORA. Alhamdulillah aku pernah jadi Project Officer juga :) bcos organization experience wasn't my thing until High School. I didn't even join student council at that time bcs I was too lazy. Di kuliah, aku gak akan pernah nyangka kalau aku bakalan seaktif ( dan SIBUK BANGET YA ALLAH ) gini. Jadi sie. acara itu udah jadi kebiasaan aku dan aku seneng jadi "otak" dari suatu acara. Tahun ini, CIMSA UGM nge-host national meetingnya SCORA yang namanya NATIONAL PEER EDUCATOR WORKSHOP, dan aku dipilih buat jadi Koor. Acara. Proud and burdening at the same time. Tapi aku gak mau ngambil pusing juga, that's why aku milih anak anak yang kompeten dan asik juga tentunya. Well, wish me luck !
7. Semester 5 udah nulis skripsi. Really ambitious and bold. 
8. Ngunjungin tempat - tempat hits Jogja. Sekarang Jogja bukan cuman Prambanan ataupun Borobudur ( duh bahkan borobudur itu di Magelang, bukan di Jogja. ) Sekarang ada hutan pinus Imogiri yang jadi sasaran foto hits anak gopro  jaman sekarang. Terus, gumuk pasir di Parangtritis, lava tour, dll. Pokoknya harus disempetin :) 
9. Got another A for my second OSCE. Kalo yang pertama bisa, kenapa yang kedua ngga bisa ? :) 
10. Ikut exchange-nya SCOPE. Nope, I probably wont choose mainstream european countries. I want to go up north, probably to Sweden? Actually, I wanted to apply to The Netherlands, but since CIMSA Indonesia doesn't have the contract and Holland IFMSA only allows EU citizen to come, well.....what a shame :( Well, let's see the countries that have contracts with Indonesia, and i'm good to go ! 
11. SAVE MY MONEY FOR TRAVELING DURING SCOPE EXCHANGE. Sebetulnya belum tau sih aku bakalan diterima di SCOPE atau ngga, tapi semoga aja ya :) Amiiin. The perks of being an AFS alumni is the endless list of friends that we met during exchange. Kita selalu bilang kalo janji bakalan ngunjungin satu sama lain di negara masing masing. Some of my friends already traveled to Indonesia and it felt so great to see them after 3 years ! In return, I'm planning to visit my AFS friends and what exciting is they live in big cities, like Oslo ( Norway ), Zurich ( Switzerland ),  Hamburg ( Germany ), Turku ( Finland ), and many more. I just can't wait for the big trip. I also add Athens and Santorini in Greece. Now, imagine how much money I need to save ? tee hee.
12. Bikin cheesecake. I KNOW IT'S HARD AND KIND OF EXPENSIVE TO BUY THE INGREDIENTS. It will worth the financial pain tho  
13. Nonton pemutaran film film asing. Kemarin soalnya ketinggalan nonton film prancis di XXI jogja. Semoga tahun ini ada pemutaran film-film lainnya !
14. Explore Indonesia's great cities. Last August I went to Bali for the first time after 10 years, and I was astonished upon the airport and the entire island ! Modern and culturally preserved at the same time. I also went to Semarang last year, however, three days were not enough. I'm planning to re-visit Surabaya and Madura for their famous Bebek Sinjay and Sambal Bu Rudi this year ! Medan and Palembang are also my dream destination. Yes, it's the food that i'm aiming. 
15. The lucky 15, which is the highlight of the year : The Better Mitha. 

What a quite list !
