[I’ve just made a shocking revelation that I’m a true yapper. I have a lot of writings that are scattered everywhere. “Transferred” posts mean that it originates from another place. I retrieved this one in my “Jurnal IdupMati” that I saved on google drive with gdocs format of a 2 columns journal, idk why i am the way that i am]

Yesterday I finally got my driver’s license, my first ever motorcycle driving license. I am so happy about it. Two days ago my mom decided that she was gonna give me some money (350k rupiahs), thank you mom. I am so sorry for writing about you a couple days ago. It took 650k rupiahs to make the license (well it supposed to be under 200k but this is Indonesia, where everything is di cuanin :)) So I made it in satlantas Depok, because my father said that it is cheaper there then in Daan Mogot for ‘nembak’. So at thursday morning we leave for Depok from 7 in the morning, it took us an hour to get there, then when we arrived, my father started conversing with a police that was about to enter the satlantas complex, then He guided us into a small room and said “Harganya 650 ribu tanpa tes tulis tes praktek jadi langsung jadi tinggal nunggu aja.” My father tried to bargain but can’t go lower than that, and since I’m actually from Jakarta so maybe that’s why the police made the price of 650k. Finally we agreed and it was all done, I just had to wait to take a picture of my face (which turned out awful) and wait for the license to be made.
I got the license at 1 pm, and we went back home shortly after. It was quite amusing seeing all the people that took the practical test, because almost all of them fail. Well to be honest, the tests are really hard, but it is a lot harder in daan mogot. Hm, almost all of the people that made the license yesterday, had it in a ‘nembak’ way. I mean I am already used to Indonesia’s culture so there is nothing to be shocked about or to be criticized because it is all corrupted from the root. Seeing this, makes me more hopeless in this country but life is life eh.
Anyways, I tried to learn to ride the motorcycle on the roadway for the first time today. Oh boy it was frustrating and scary, all the vehicle runs very fast. It is like I could be hit from any angle at any time. My father annoyed me, he taught me to drive and he was very keen about me letting the gas go, which I already did, but he insisted that I didn’t. Well first off, my motorcycle is very heavy, and I got my father on the back which is heavy too, so It felt like I don’t have any control over the steering bar. The spion was also off so I spent much of my time worrying about if there is a vehicle behind me or not. I plan to master driving the motorcycle as soon as possible so that I can go anywhere that I want by myself. I hope luck is always on my side, amen :D.
Oh and there was also a forum, which discussed the twtw task. Apparently there are 51% of my batch that didn’t reach the target of 26 kating and I’m included in it hehe. I mean, why are they forcing us to interact with people, why did they force something that is very personal. The whole IKM concept is confusing me. If they want to keep the prosperity of their members, then why are they forcing things to us. Like.. I didn’t choose to be in this organization, I chose to enter electrical engineering in University of Indonesia without knowing about this shit. It is all bullshit anyways, they made their members into statistics, they just made us their proker with parameters, they just care about whether they’ll achieve their parameters or not. Fuck this system I’m tired of it. I might not finish twtw just for the sake of proving my point. YOU CAN’T FORCE INDIVIDUAL TO CARE. Why do they always put the blame on collective indifference when it is clear that it is the individual that made up the group. FUCK I HATE THIS VERY MUCH FUCKKKK. [20:36]
