How I define my success?



Being an educated woman and become a policymaker in the energy sector is my dream. I always believe that the best way to empower women is to be the best version of myself and inspire others. Education has opened an opportunity for me not only to get a career and cut the poverty line in the family but also to broaden my horizon about the world and how complex the societies are. There are so many things that can be done better with the right knowledge, and that’s why I am working hard on my next education, the nearest one is a master's degree. Talking about a master degree, I was really close to this short term goal, I got the scholarship and admitted at the KTH Royal Institute of Technology, Sweden. It was really exciting to see the result of 2 years’ endeavor, however, the Covid-19 just makes me need to postpone my study. Policies differences between Sweden and Indonesia make it worse, seems deferment can’t be done and I need to reapply next year without guarantee. Of course it just a gentle reminder that there are always obstacles to pursuing something, in the past, now, or later. Obstacles will keep coming, but opportunities are also available if we searching for those. I decided to try as hard as I can to save my place in that university if it doesn’t work then how? Well, I believe there will be another one accept me, it is just a matter of time if I keep working on that. It is a step to start my journey to be a policymaker in Indonesia when I achieve it later, there will be more obstacles and challenges. Success is when I can keep my effort no matter how hard it is and how the end result looks, as long as I am doing the right things. There will be more and more goals to be pursued as well as more works to be done in order to amplify the impacts on the community. With always chasing goals, we will be a successful long life-learners.

Motivations and Expectations of Study at Electric Power Engineering KTH

This essay was made for Sustainable Electric Power Engineer assignment at KTH           Coming from Indonesia, an archipelago country with more than 17,000 islands, I see different challenges on electricity generations and distributions faced by my country. Indonesia has achieved a 98.86% electrification ratio since 2019, but regional disparities of electricity access are still happening. Many electrified regions, especially in Eastern Indonesia, have not had access to 24 hours electricity [1]; this impedes the development of other sectors such as economic, education, or health.  Therefore, I am motivated to pursue a career in the energy sector to take part in improving the life quality of many Indonesian citizens by providing more reliable energy access for society. By studying in the Electric Power Engineering [2] program in KTH, I wish to have a solid understanding of the electrical system, its operation and planning that will be beneficial to dev...

Cerita di Bawah Langit Senja Pulau Nyamuk

Pernahkah engkau melihat hamparan laut biru yang begitu luas dengan kerlap-kerlip airnya terpapar sinar matahari ? Bagaikan kristal-kristal permata biru yang begitu indah, gemericik arus laut dengan ombak yang begitu tenang telah membuatku jatuh cinta pada lautan ini saat pertama kali menaiki kapal dari Pulau Karimunjawa menuju Pulau Nyamuk. Bisa dibilang ini adalah pengalaman pertama bagi saya menaiki kapal kecil untuk membelah lautan, tak urung para perempuan anggota Tim KKN Pulau Nyamuk menjerit-jerit dalam perjalanan setiap kali kapal mengalami guncangan-guncangan yang belum biasa kami rasakan, meskipun pada akhirnya guncangan ombak telah menjadi hal yang biasa kami alami selama KKN di Pulau Nyamuk. Ketika kapal yang engkau tumpangi semakin mendekati Pulau Nyamuk, maka akan bisa dilihat lautan dangkal yang begitu bening dan bersih. Dan dapatkah anda lihat, ikan-ikan karang warna-warni yang seolah-olah melompat di antara rerumputan dan karang, anemon laut yang melambai-lambai...
