The Master's Lecture Note
Chapter 20 We’re a the winner
28 July 2016 we were expelled from interndorm, because indeed we did not extend the interdorm rent to be paid for one year, because we only had to count the days of stay in Thailand, because we only had to count, we just wait for the black book or theses we finish, after that we wrap with some form.
Our gratitude is that our entire generation is declared to pass even if the condition that the publication must still be fulfilled, it means we will not get a diploma without a sign that we have been published.
And in these last months I, Mas Saiful and Bang Wira almost every week celebrate this separation by eating KFC half halal tesco lotus, why is it half halal because said Bang Wira who has a Muslim farm in Hat Yai, based on that we follow Bang Wira fatwa that KFC Hat Yai is half halal, there the three of us as usual joked and reminisced about the past in Hat Yai.
“It's been two years yes you guys ..”
“Iya Bang ... already bosen here.”
The words we used to say were actually just for joking but the love with PSU bag a second home for us, I remember first setting foot on this campus, meeting Mas Saiful, I remember, Mbak Koming, Cinta, and other friends really be a moment that I remember forever, no more morning activities to reading room, overnight in LRC, waiting for the shuttle bus, no more activities, shop at a fresh market and buy food in Rongchang.
After returning from KFC I and Mas Saiful returned to shinton or our boarding house, but before that Mas Saiful brought a motorcycle to the campus, and took me on the terrace of building 1.
“Ngapain, Mas?”
“No one, right?”
“No.”
In front of the terrace of the building 1 Mas Saiful looked to the left right of the bag maling who wanted to make sure that the night situation was safe, then he took off his color pants and ….
Ser!
He peed right on the floor of the stairs of the office entrance where we often took time to the reading room and tutelage, knowing it was all I laughed out loud.
“Crazy you, Mas!”
Mas Saiful fulfilled his vows if he graduated he would pee in front of the building where we have been experiencing various struggles and trials during college.
Because my laughing voice was loud enough to wake some sleeping dogs asleep on the porch until they started barking and we rushed home on a motorcycle.
On August 8, 2016, Mas Saiful and I went home together to ride a phi boon tuktuk with some suitcases and tote bags, it turned out to be the date of my last meeting with the loser.
...****************...
Graduation is a happy moment for the students who study and it also applies to us master students who have completed studies at one of the best campuses in Thailand, there are some unique things that we can get in the graduation procession in Thailand, namely graduation is only done once a year regardless of the number of students who are in graduation, not because of efficiency or inadequate budget because it is the rules in Thailand that are entitled to emissary is the royal family, we at PSU who will emigrate like a king or princess of the kingdom, he said, this year PSU students will be graduated by Royal Princess Somdet Phrachao Nong Nang Thoe Chaofa Chulabhorn Walailak Agrarajakumari in thai ⁇ ⁇ or commonly known Princess Chulabhorn was the son of King Bhumibol Adulyadej.
We can only take part in graduation in 2017 or a year after graduation because graduation last year we were hampered by publication requirements. Graduation preparation is always done with great care ranging from dress rehearsal to graduation procession which up to spend approximately one month, security is very tight, the main streets around the campus are closed for the safety of graduates and princess of course. for the clean gladi itself takes one week and the graduation procession is carried out for three days, that is the reason why the graduation procession in Thailand the graduates went quickly because the princess herself moved the toga rope of the graduates who this time around 10 thousand people who graduated.
We FON 2014 were all present in the graduation procession except for the loser Mas Saiful, when I contacted him he replied
“ Events not important .. just spend money.” While giving a laughing emoticon he answered a message, after which he sent an old photo wearing graduation toga clothes that he deliberately rented and took pictures before returning to Indonesia.
Basis Mas Saiful, he remains as he always considered something important to be trivial, FON 2014 get the opportunity to graduate on the second day, after the procession, there is also an award for both Thai students who excel and international students.
In addition to the highest GPA there is also the best dissertation and thesis award, and when the thesis turn is best.
The Dani Master of Nursing Science
The rumbling of the convention hall room congratulated me and the FON friends also looked at me, not believing that I was the one who got the best thesis title and when the MC directed me to move forward, I realized.
In front of thousands of graduates I got the award which was directly given by the dean of graduate school Prof. Damrongsak Faroongsarng, Ph.D. who had previously argued with me and Mas Saiful about international journal publications, he smiled gently at me and I returned his smile, too, it also appears that the leaders of FON who gave me applause there I also saw Ajarn Nai and Ajarn Chin who seemed to have seen my success at this time.
Especially Ajarn Nai this time is the second time I made him cry after practice in songklanagarin hospital, all of us can finally graduate still time and maybe that makes him touched because we can all attend graduation even without the loser Mas Saiful.
I also thought that maybe this was the gift of my crying during the final defense and also the prayers of my father and mother at home, I was very moved by today's moment, the moment where the struggle for two years ended sweetly, he said, I also remember the words of Mas Saiful who again proved by getting the best thesis award made the sentence he delivered when I failed in the final defense that I was the best.
The third day I took the time to stop by the campus and the places on campus to reminisce a little after a year and as usual visit Ronchang, Mak linda, Mak cayen, and, the bus driver and everyone I met must have asked ‘Where is Saiful? no exception Ajarn Nai, the loser is still remembered even though it has been a year never visited this campus when I heard that I just smiled answering ‘Indonesia’, , even until the next three years when I came to PSU brought my students to exchange students the name Mas Saiful is still known there.
From him I learned that intellectual intelligence is important but emotional and spiritual ingenuity is also important so that our existence as a human being is always pleasant, appreciated and remembered at any time, it is no exaggeration to mention that the secret of his success is only two intelligences that are sometimes forgotten.
