The Edge of Glory

"I'm on the edge of glory and I'm hanging on a moment of truth"

Thursday, 15th September 2011 is both historical and hysterical. In fact the whole week was magical. I can still recall the atmosphere in Grand Kawanua Convention Centre the night the medals were given away. It was the most awesome feeling I have ever experience.

Yes reader, finally my hard work had been repaid. I present to you this silver medal! I ranked 11th overall and ranked 6th among the other silver medalist. I was a wee bit disappointed though that I didn't get a gold medal because everyone was already kind of hoping so. But it's alright, thinking that I get to experience Pelatnas is good enough for me :) I must fight though, because this time there is only two slots available and I want this thing. So bad.

Anyways, I had a lot of fun with my friends from DKI Jakarta for the past couple of weeks. Meet The 12 Happy Contestants and our co-ordinator:

From left to right, back to front: Matthew Billy, Janice Tanumihardja, Meva Nareza, Bu Naniek, Nazmun Lailah, Alvin Sanjaya, Bu Yus, Tazkya Amany, Elva Vidya, Meutia Admiralda, Afandi Charles, me, Nobian Andre, Fahmi Ahmadi

Oh and the biology team of DKI Jakarta brought home 3 gold medals, 2 silver medals, 4 bronze medals, a best experiment trophy and an absolute winner title. So proud of them! God, I miss them already :')

Award Night at Grand Kawanua :)

So, what's next? Next is pelatnas satu which will be held on 5th of October at Wisma Kartini Bandung. This is a training and selection for Indonesia's delegation at International Biology Olympiad 2012 Singaporee!! I will be rejoined with most of the DKI Jakarta biology team except for Nazmun, Elva and Fahmi. I will miss you guyss :") Please do not forget me okaay.

Oh and before I forget I'd like to thank these people:

Biology most legendary couple: Harun Reza Sugito (Gold IBO Korea 2010) and Marsha Christanvia (Silver IBO Taipei 2011)

Thank you for your kindness and patience during the training week at Belleza and also for everything before and after that. Thanks for the chocolate, and your faith in us. I hope you'll like the present we gave youu :)

Alright, I think that's a wrap. Oh and last last request, please always pray the best for me. I am nothing without you ;)

Torang samua basodara!!!
