Challenged by Innovation
Hi!!
Maybe it’s been a long time you don’t hear any update from us. Actually, there
are so many things we have to do. So, I don’t have enough time to post this.
I’m very sorry about the delay and I hope you enjoy our new update. Ok, now
let’s start with August 30, 2012.
That
was Thursday evening. We gathered on Microsoft Indonesia Office, our lovely
place to meet amazing people. I was thinking that day would be our usual weekly
meeting but my opinion was wrong as I heard what Mas Yustinus (he and Mbak Lisa
are our mentor since Mas Resha moved) asked something to the receptionist. We
were going to present in front of The Director of Genuine Software Initiative,
Sudimin Mina.
Surprised and nervous. Yeah, we were going to present without any preparation. However,
we were happy that finally we could meet him. He is very busy so it’s an honor
for us that he gave his valuable time with us. Surely, we don’t want to
disappoint him.
The
meeting was begun. And based on what I see, he was challenging us (the kind of
person that I never thinking before). He asked all of us to present in English.
That was good idea for our preparation (it shows us his awareness). However,
I found that it’s a little difficult to stay calm. What inside my head are he
has a great position and I can’t speak English very fluently. I was afraid that
I disappoint him.
He
appreciated what we’ve been presented and he motivated us. Moreover, he gave
his tips how to present in English and dared us to present creatively. After
about 3 hours of meeting, we note a few points that we have to think again. And
we didn’t forget also for taking pictures.
That
day I got a lot of lesson. There are still a lot of amazing people out there.
So, what all of us have to do are keep learning and never give up.
Ok.
Deeply thanking for Pak Dimin and wishing you every success.
