In May I got my acceptance letter and scholarship offering at Aarhus University in International Business Communications in Corporate Communication, Master Programme. So yeah, I'm finally on a right track on my five-year plan.
So far it's been so fucking great! I arrived on Tuesday, August 18th and move to my dorm, Vilhelm Kiers Kollegiet at Aarhus V and for that I feel blessed. It's because my neighbourhood is simply nice, safe and green :) I heard a lot of newcomer students are getting place at Brabrand and they said it's not that nice.
The people? Oh. My. God! my friends on my floor are simply AWESOME. Mostly Danish but I have seven international students and they're so nice and friendly and I feel at home immediately.
My classmates are also nice, not instantly "clique" like my friends from my dorm but still very nice and friendly.
The city? Aarhus is simply beautiful. It's different from Jakarta because it's so small compared to Jakarta but everything seems and looks nice and I feel there's always something new around the corner :)
Aside from awesome things that I mentioned before, I'm still at overwhelmed-and-dazzled phase. Everything's new to me and a bit confusing. This is my first time being alone and far from home thus I can't be a spoiled brat that I used to be ;p because I need to do everything and survive here by myself.
So far, the most difficult thing is to adapt with the way they're studying here. I really need to change my usual way of thinking and start doing critical analysis of everything in my study. I also need to read long lists of books that help me with my study and try my best to really understand it.
And.... I'm seriously miss talking with someone using Bahasa Indonesia. Sumpaah yaaaa, kangen banget banget ngegosip dan ngecengin orang pake Bahasa Indonesia :(
However, there's always ups and downs in every phase in your life, I know it and I'm currently at best to survive it.
That's it. That's the news I wanna share with you.
Have a nice weekend guys :)
CARPE-FUCKING-DIEM!
cheers,
