Helloo!
Welcome back to the blog spot! Yeay! Haha

To be honest, I feel guilty for leaving this blog in a long time. Not only a week or a month, but more than 5 months. My last article had been posted last August. Then, where have I been a few months later?

Throw back to my last post, I wrote about my feeling after the Graduation Day. Yes, my feeling was so mingled. I couldn't identified the thing I want, or maybe the thing I need. I was distracted between take a job or continue my study. Then in the middle of this confusion, I decided to try a new experience. I have been asked to join IOP (International Office and Partnership), Universitas Airlangga. Mbak Ratna is the one who offered me this opportunity. Of course, I didn't need so many time just to say YES for the invitation. Since 2013, I had a desire to join IOP, but the thesis took my full attention. Then, now, I get the chance I'd wait for.

I knew IOP since 2012, when I tried my luck to set my foot abroad for the first time. I asked IOP to assist my team in the administration stuff related to international conference that we wanted to join, and IOP helped us a lot. That's why, I looked this organization could run the work well as part of our university. IOP is a great yet dynamic organization. Believe me, you will see a bunch of chance to international exposure here. Sound interesting, right?

I have been volunteering at IOP in 2013. I assisted them two times in the special event called International Office Meeting (IO Meeting) on March and October 2013. This occasion gave me a space to know more about IOP and the people in. I started familiar with some people in this organization. So, when I joined them again on Sept 2014, I just need a moment to adapt.

A few months to be part of IOP, a lot of memories has been created. IOP has change as a new family for me. The people, the working environment, yes, everything is great. Unlucky me, I need to say good bye to them a few weeks later. Other challenge has been waiting for me (I'll tell you in the next post :p). But, although I only knew them for a short period, I still would like to say thanks for all the togetherness, all the love and laugh, and all the lessons they give to me.
