WEEK 1: The Familiar Cold Breeze

       I made a promise last October that I will go back to Indonesia three years from that moment, but I never thought that the promise I made would be fulfilled in just three months. Joining this SEA Teacher Program was the best thing to start my 2024.        The first week of my stay was the lightest week I had in this program. My heart is in awe, for my soul is at home again. Last year my fellow student teacher from Central Luzon State University was a man, that's why it's either I am alone in a room, or I am with another woman that I barely know who happens to be a foreigner too like me, but now my fellow student teacher from CLSU is a woman, so now I have a Filipino I can be with whenever and wherever I will be. I think the Lord blessed me now to have her with me in UPI for I really felt lonely last year, now I have a friend I can talk to anytime. Furthermore, Regular Batch is different from Pilot Batch, Regular Batch is composed of different Universities in Southeast Asi

Sweeter Joy

Hello, Mabuhay! They say, love is sweeter the second time around, and I can't agree more with that, for I have experienced that sweeter love here in UPI. Three to four months ago, I was also here in this building with the other SEA Teachers of Regular Batch 9, silently wishing and hoping that I can still go back here again in UPI. That's why when the application for SEA teacher Project for Pilot Batch 3 started in CLSU, I didn't hesitate to apply hoping in my heart that I can still come back here in UPI. And I think God hears my prayers, for once again, I have accepted to be part of the SEA Teacher Project, though we are not the one who will choose what country or university we are going to, but you know what the exciting part here? I got chosen to go to Universitas Pendidikan Indonesia for the second time around. So coming here, being here   is not really intentional, for it was a pure destiny for me to be here in UPI. For almost a month of stay, UPI, Indonesia nev

WEEK 4: Tell me it's over without telling me it is

     We're now on the last week, and this is the longest and undeniably the best week of this one-month program.      On the first day of the week I finally saw my previous mentor accidentally on my way to Labschool, Dr. Eka, we're actually surprised to see each other, though I am really planning to meet him when I get back to Indonesia, it's just that I don't know where to see him, and I think the heavens made a way for it, and that's it. We had some short chit-chats and he offered me a masteral scholarship in UPI, telling me to send to him my credentials right after my graduation to apply for the scholarship he is trying to tell me, saying that he will push me through it. This is one of the great fruits of this kind of program, it gives participants doors of opportunity in international programs, and this offer is something for me to consider.  I also met my previous co operating teacher, Ibu Lissiana. These two people are great people because they made me fal
