After reading mba
Ola’s post here, i became a little-bit tickled, want to follow BEC, but because
i was still hesitant, finally distracted by itself, hehehe 
Continues with blog walking,
because I don’t have any idea, don’t know what I would post. Because mba Ola’s
post also here, so idly want to know how SEO work on my blog. Again, i idly
typed my name in SEO and here it is, appeared some of my post through socmed, college assignment, college library, my final assignment, blogs, etc. And what makes me surprised was I found my first letter I wrote
using English language. Oh, how nostalgic! I can’t imagine how desperate
and how curious i am at the time, with the limit time pressure which I think is very short for
my brain that
is under average, still wants to complete the task from my lecturer.
As a
graduate from the Department of Statistics,
i do like programming, but
just a little bit. In computer programming
class, students are
required to not only rely on software toolbox
in solving problems or tasks assigned by the lecturer.
With limited capacity of my brain, I want to try my skills
in terms of programming, how
great I am, how much
I can count on
my right brain.
But it turns out I
was not that great to be aligned with
some of my friends who is good at programming.
Alright! Recklessly, desperate and
curious, I ventured to send an email to admin, owner of
software used on my college. Unfortunately it must be written
using English, which
I do not believe
in myself, no guts for it. But what can I do, my curiosity has
passed the threshold I could bear, using google
translate to improve and grammar in a few
sentences, finally I hit the send button
steadily.
Hours passed and the days passed, the email reply
did not come, while the deadline is getting closer, and I was getting
anxious waiting. At
the last second of the deadlines collection, I was surrender,
my brain really
dead end to find the
answer that is impossible produced by my brain. Luckily, my lecturer said that it was only as an exercise for students, not included in the assessment.
What? are you kidding me?! Is it true? I just said Alhamdulillah.
Maybe it's just me wanted to get it done by then or maybe I was too excited back then.
After a few days, I forget exactly
how many days, as I recall, is past the
deadline, appears a reply from
the owner of the software, how pleased I am, although it has passed from the time of the task given my lecturer.
But at least the software
company kindly
enough to reply emails from
troubled students like me at the time, which also shows
that they are
willing to help users who lose their way. And i
should have said thanks to them at that time, but i forgot whether to thank you
, and I regret it.
My experience of my English letter reminded me that I really like English. Although
I forget whether to thank you, but I am
glad I found it
yesterday, as memories
to remember, that I've ever been in that situation, pressed until no
option other than English. It
reminds me of the passion that I have had to
continue to learn English.
So , What do BEC mean for me? Its rediscover the spirit of writing using English.
Wassalamu’alaikum!
Note:
I would like to say thanks to Matlab Team for answering my question years ago, even it's late.
Just want you to know that I'm very grateful
