22 Years 6 Month

hey folks,
as usual, being an owl who stay up untill morning because of morning coffee and some dream that keep goin on my head.

so this month i officially 22 years 6 month old.
quiet old but does it matter?

if i think about 6 years ago, i always dream about meeting some of people that doesn't even know that iam exist LOL. i used to be a kpop fans, yes those girl who scream whenever they saw videos or photos of their bias *Idol*..
i always dreaming about going to korea "someday",
and god already answer my young long ago prayer..

i go to korea

but it's not for just a vacation, i have choosen to be the representative of my university that bring my country names Indonesia. i know, it's not only our university but still i feel so proud to join this team.

almost 2 month struggling with all of the preparation, paper, meeting and all of those sleepless night being paid off. we finally go to korea

 it takes around 7 hours by using garuda indonesia. good we go to the event of garuda indonesia so we get a reasonable price with a good quality flight.. bye jakarta it's time to fly to incheon..

as we arrived in korea we feel that there's no big differences between the weather in indonesia and korea, but lol i was stupid because its indoor and they have a heater..

of course we are hungry because soon after we landing, we need to take bus to gwangju which is take around 4 hours from seoul... our first meal in korea was bibimbbab, or mixed rice. i like the food but not the price.. it's quite expensive for me, because usually it takes around 7 won for bibimbbab but this one was 10 won or 130.000 rupiah for one person..

forget about the bibimbbab, we need to install our products yeah, just a 15 minutes after we arrived in our hotel, we need to walk around 25 minutes to the convention hall with all the stuff and heavy products in our hand #die

it's not the end, we need to install it as fast as possible... noooooooo

look at our so not ready face kkk

we have 2 hours to install it and of course its not enough, in the end we bring all of our stuff back to hotel, yes we need to repair our motor stepper and some coding in the arduino because of some problem, that's mean 25 minute walk in the cold air with this heavy product. noooo~~

after we arrived in hotel we stay up untill 3 am no it's only me my 2 teammates still up untill 5 am to finish the product and wakeup at 8 before we go to the convention hall again, but thanks god they provide bus so, we don't need to walk again kkkk...

ah i forgot to write about it, before we arrived to our hotel we visit a traditional villages which is so crowded with some of korean people using traditional clothes called hanbok.

they are so pretty and its kind of remind me with drama that i used to watch..

it's my lecturer who has a cute face taking a photo infront of a building that seems quite old, and i will show you how crowded it was.

 ah no you could't see the crowds but the picture above show how pretty it was, i love the weather and also the lighting. it so pretty.

talking about prettiness my friend took a picture with some korean who is using hanbok, a lot of korean also having vacation in here, paying for using hanbok and walking around the village to enjoy the authentic of old korea..

okay back to the competition..

so the first day of E2FESTA in korea is beginning, i feel abit of nervous but it still goes well..

let just check the documentation of that day..

this is it, our lovely aquaponic that will help you to plant without sunshine, in easy and efficient way.. hehe

the first day schedule was quiet busy which is starting from opening, to presentation day.. btw i took some of the picture bellow from jonghyun kim..

okay i think i uppload too many pictures but that's not the point lol, i was talking all day explaining about the products and answer all the judges question. i feel like i do my final presentation for graduating again.. iam exhausted .. seriously..

but iam happy because my teammates yusi, nida and bella always standby helping me answer all the question and always makesure that our prototype is working. and also my LO/supporter junhee and hyojeong that is super kind who always helping us making our first day so memorable and happy ^^

yeah the day is already passed and night comes,

we go to a traditional market at midnight when almost all of the store was closed, so sad.. but that's fine.. take a looks about it

this market is quiet old and almost closed but they do some collaboration with a big companies and it works, the market is now being famous again and they alive..

we go through this market, buy some omuk or oden, and we go back to our hotel to sleep, because all of our energi is being used all day... i almost fell asleep during the presentation. kidding...

ah i will continue the blog in korea part two.. wait for it! ^^
