Suggestions and Offers dialogue

 Jack: Hey, you're Minerva right? Do you remember me?

Minerva: Ah, are you Jack from H-University? I remember you!

Jack: It's been a long time huh? How have you been and what're you doing here?

Minerva: Nothing much, I'm currently pondering over my life situation right now, how about you?

Jack: Good! Woah, didn't expect it considering how calm you look, would you mind sharing with me? I could probably help some way.

Minerva: Yeah sure, recently I got into a car crash, my car is totaled, and the other driver has the audacity to ask for money to compensate the dent on his car! I swear it's the other driver fault and I even have evidence!

Jack: Oof, sounds rough. If you have evidence, I suggest to search for a lawyer to sue him and make him to compensate your loss.

Minerva: That's a great idea... Unfortunately I don't know any lawyer.

Jack: Hmm, you probably don't know this but I graduated from law school and even had a couple of cases before this. I'll be your lawyer if you don't have one, consider this for an old friend. 

Minerva: You're very generous Jack, thank you. I'll probably accept your offer, can you share your phone number with me?

Jack: Sure! Here. I gotta go, see you soon!

To Harvard University

I am writing this letter to you for recommending one of my best students. He'll be a great addition to your collections of assistant professor. His name is Daffa Nabil, he has great ambitions to become a lecturer, or a doctor which I believe will be the best for his growth at Harvard University. I'm one of the oldest guidance counselling mentor in Indonesia, and my eyes searching for potential in students seldom failed.

Daffa is an honest, active, and a hardworking student. He'll always try to achieve the maximum score for all of the teachers assignments. He's very active, almost all the organizational activities at school known to students, he'll always be there being the leader. Even if he can't be the leader, he'll be the next position of leadership after the leader. He'll work very hard at the organizational activities, not even sparing a wasteful break. All of the organizational activities he's been in always result in success, thanks to his charm and leadership.

In classes, Daffa is liked by everyone. He'll always be there when you search for him and answer all of his classmate question regarding school, and subjects he's good at. Not all of his friends at school only consist of his classmate, students outside of his class know about him, some are his friends. Not only he's active at organizational activities, even in extracurriculars he's in.

I believe he'll be a great help to your circle of assistant professor, he's very curious and I believe he'll study and searching for knowledge outside his area of expertise when he's given the chance at Harvard University. 

Sincerely,

Hasbi Huda M.,
Guidance counsellor.

MY FUTURE, MY AMBITION, AND MY GOAL


    Future is what everyone worrying about. Although you shouldn't worry much about the future, because the present is still important, still, we should plan ahead and have a bright future.

    Living with joy, dying without regrets, is my go-to motto. Once I saw someone working very hard in the present for the exchange of bright, relax future. The person I mentioned now is very rich and have a happy, relaxed life for her youth. 

    When I saw what she accomplished, I thought "That makes sense, I should do that too". But after thinking it again, that is a very risky move. Will I be able to diligently work very hard and not even a second take a chance to have a long break? Is there a guarantee that I'll live long enough to enjoy my hard work?

    And even if I work very hard and there is a guarantee that I'll live long enough to enjoy it, when should I stop? Is it when I get Rp. 1 Million? 1 Billion? or when I get that wage per month? When do I stop? Or specifically, How do I decide when I am satisfied?

    That's why I will get a stable job, no risk but high guarantee. But there's no point in getting that job if I'll just work hard and not enjoy it in the slightest. So a job that's suitable for me, what is it?

Well for starters, I'm good at technology, English, possibly entrepreneurship. What do we get? First, a developer profession. The one that makes software and stuff, it's a stable job and I like making software for enjoyment. Unfortunately, it's a high bar job. Only the best of the best can make the cut, and the best university for that in Bandung is ITB at STEI major. And I heard it's very hard to major in STEI, and I even haven't talk about getting into STEI.

Secondly, what my mother suggested is Digital Marketing. It requires marketing skill and technology skill, and as luck would have it, I have the qualifications to even dream about taking the job. For now, my ambition is set on taking digital marketing, now I need motivation to diligently study hard.  


We should have ambition, and no repentance when we are at our dying breath.

Thank you for coming to my TED-Talk. See you when I see you

Padri War

Hasil gambar untuk perang padri

The Padri War 

Was a war that took place in West Sumatra and its surroundings, especially in the area of ​​the Kingdom of Pagaruyung in 1803 to 1838. This war was a war that was initially a result of conflict on religious matters before turning into a war against colonialism.

The Padri War is actually the resistance of the Padri against the dominance of the Dutch Indies government in West Sumatra, then there is a conflict between the Padri and the adat which led to the entrance to Dutch interference and this war was divided into 3 phases, and that was :

  1. The movement of people who was attacking the posts and the prevention of Dutch patrols (1821-1825)
  2. The Padang agreement (1825-1830).
  3. Dutch strategy of ''Winning The Heart'' and ''Long Placards'' in Padri War (1830-1837 / 1838)

Background of the War

The Padri War was motivated by the return of three Haji from Makkah around 1803, namely the Haji Miskin, Haji Sumanik and Haji Piobang who want to improve the Islamic Shari'a which had not been perfectly carried out by the Minangkabau people. Knowing this, Tuanku Nan Renceh was very interested and then supported the wishes of the three Hajj people along with other ulemas in Minangkabau who were members of the Nan Salapan Tiger.

And then Harimao Nan Salapan asked Tuanku Lintau to invite '' Yang Pertuan Pagaruyung of Sultan Arifin Muningsyah'' along with the Indigenous people to abandon some practices that were contrary to the teachings of Islam. In some negotiations there was no agreement between the Padri and the Indigenous Peoples. Along with that, some villages in the kingdom of Pagaruyung were turbulent, culminating in 1815, the Padri under the leadership of Tuanku Pasaman attacked the Kingdom of Pagaruyung and war broke out in Koto Tangah. This attack caused Sultan Arifin Muningsyah to be forced to flee and escape from the royal capital. From the records of Raffles, who had visited Pagaruyung in 1818, said that he only found the remains of the burning Pagaruyung Royal Palace.

Strategies that has been used by Indigenous Peoples and the Dutch

Strategy of the Indigenous Peoples and the Kingdom of Pagaruyung: Ask for Dutch Help


The Indigenous people was began overwhelmed by the Padri. The Padri continued to attack the Indigenous Peoples. Defeat after defeat suffered by the Indigenous Peoples. Sultan Arifin Muningsyah is nowhere. Everything is bad for the Indigenous people. They also negotiated to resolve this problem. Until finally a solution was obtained, which was to ask for Dutch assistance.

Sultan Tangkal Alam Bagagar led the Indigenous People to negotiate with the Dutch. Although the original Sultan of Tangkal Alam Bagagar had no right to act in the name of the Kingdom of Pagaruyung, they still insisted on signing the agreement. Because of this agreement, the Dutch considered the Kingdom of Pagaruyung surrendering to the Government of the Dutch East Indies. At that time Padang was led by Resident James du Puy. On the advice of the resident, Sultan Tangkal Alam Bagagar was appointed by the Dutch to be the ''Tanah Datar Regent''. This alliance opportunity is too dear to miss because the Dutch are also very interested in Minangkabau because it is suitable for planting coffee. Coffee was an important trade commodity for the Dutch in Europe.

The Dutch, who were invited by Indigenous Peoples to interfere in West Sumatra's affairs, began to act. They attacked the Hard Water and Simawang areas led by Captain Dienema and Captain Goffinet. Then Lieutenant Colonel Raaff helped the two captains and managed to drive the Padri people out of Pagaruyung. Then the Dutch built the fortress Fort Van Der Capellen in the Batusangkar area.
