Monday Meetup! I have the super lucky chance to catch up with fellow @iaasipb alumni in campus today ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜ something that can rarely be done in this age (hahahaha)…

On the left is @erik_mulya aka #erikneverstop my senior in AGH who’s travelled Europe and US plus he’s already finished his Master’s Thesis on time.
Next is the new drh @rioang89 who’s just finished his DVM comprehension test and now a legit vet! He’s going away for Master’s in Edinburgh on Friday. On the far right is @annisaa_potter my senior since junior high. She just launched her book Student Traveller about her adventures travelling. She’s been to 21 country in 5 years! (Review of her book coming soon in blog ๐Ÿ˜Š)

All of them are super inspiring in their own way. โค It doesn’t make me jealous though, it makes me more motivated to do something great in my own field of work and expertise. Since the best thing we can do for others is to support and inspire each other in life.

September has begun! Now there are only 4 months left in the year. Time to step on the gas and finished what needs to be finished this year so that we can focus on bigger and better things in 2016.

Work hard, play hard, pray hard. Bismillahirahmanirrahim. Hope all goes well.

Dirgahayu Republik Indonesia yang ke 70 ๐Ÿ˜Š

Mungkin sekarang Indonesia tidak berada di kondisi yang terbaik. Masih banyak yang harus diperbaiki, masih banyak yang tidak sesuai dengan aturan, masih banyak rakyatnya yang belum memiliki rasa nasionalisme + cinta tanah air, masih banyak hal yang terbengkalai, dan masih banyak hal yang harus diperhatikan oleh kita.

Tapi mengeluh tidak akan menyelesaikan masalah. Masih banyak juga kesempatan untuk memperbaiki negeri, berprestasi, membuat terobosan baru, dan membuat perubahan positif demi Indonesia yang lebih baik. Hard work and good prayers never betray. Tetap semangat meneruskan perjuangan para pejuang, even though the battles we’re fighting now are different. Selamat Indonesia, semoga Allah tetap melindungi kita semua โค โ€“ View on Path.

โ€œBecause people with money will not wish to show it. If your childโ€™s best friendโ€™s parents go unemployed, you donโ€™t want to buy a car or anything showy.โ€ – Johann Rupert, the chief executive of Richemont, which owns Cartier and other big luxury brands. http://www.washingtonpost.com/business/economy/louis-vuitton-and-guccis-nightmares-come-true-wealthy-shoppers-dont-want-flashy-logos-anymore/2015/06/15/e521733c-fd97-11e4-833c-a2de05b6b2a4_story.html? …

In one study from 2006, psychological researcher Shelly Gable and her colleagues brought young adult couples into the lab to discuss recent positive events from their lives. They psychologists wanted to know how partners would respond to each otherโ€™s good news. They found that, in general, couples responded to each otherโ€™s good news in four different ways that they called: passive destructive, active destructive, passive constructive, and active constructive.

Letโ€™s say that one partner had recently received the excellent news that she got into medical school. She would say something like โ€œI got into my top choice med school!โ€

If her partner responded in a passive destructive manner, he would ignore the event. For example, he might say something like: โ€œYou wouldnโ€™t believe the great news I got yesterday! I won a free t-shirt!โ€

If her partner responded in a passive constructive way, he would acknowledge the good news, but in a half-hearted, understated way. A typical passive constructive response is saying โ€œThatโ€™s great, babeโ€ as he texts his buddy on his phone.

In the third kind of response, active destructive, the partner would diminish the good news his partner just got: โ€œAre you sure you can handle all the studying? And what about the cost? Med school is so expensive!โ€

Finally, thereโ€™s active constructive responding. If her partner responded in this way, he stopped what he was doing and engaged wholeheartedly with her: โ€œThatโ€™s great! Congratulations! When did you find out? Did they call you? What classes will you take first semester?โ€

Among the four response styles, active constructive responding is the kindest. One of the reason why relationship last. It’s not just about being there during the bad times, but being there during the good times too. Which one are you?

When the Earth has given so much for us, it’s our duty to help conserve and protect it from harms that we often make ourselves. As future agronomist, horticulturist, plant breeder, seed scientist and even farmer, we are trying our best to feed the world and help protect the environment at the same time. Finding new ways to help both the population and the environment now sits in our shoulders. Whatever the outcome may be, hope it benefits both human and Mother Nature. Happy Earth Day.
