Reach For The Sky -SS



Watch you waste away
You were born to shine but left behind
Slowly fade to grey
Yet, you say you are fine but I fear you are blind.

How could you believe that you done wrong
You don't believe in yourself

So reach for the sky,
I would pick you up if I could
Open your eyes,
I would pick you up if I could

Listen to the sound
Of your days passing by while you live a lie
Why'd you turn around,
Why'd you say goodbye, was there no reply?

How could you believe that your not strong
You don't believe anything

So reach for the sky,
I would pick you up if I could
Open your eyes,
I would pick you up if I could

And then I saw your face, you're left alone
But you're not alone, you're not alone, you're not alone... ...

Reach for the sky
I would pick you up if I could,
Open your eyes, I would pick you up If I could
You're not alone,
You're not alone,
You're not alone,
You're not alone,
You're not alone....

Because You Love Me

Dear Mama,



For all those times you stood by me
For all the truth that you made me see
For all the joy you brought to my life
For all the wrong that you made right

For every dream you made come true
For all the love I found in you
I'll be forever thankful, baby

You're the one who held me up
Never let me fall
You're the one who saw me through
Through it all

You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldn't speak
You were my eyes when I couldn't see
You saw the best there was in me

Lifted me up when I couldn't reach
You gave me faith 'cause you believed
I'm everything I am
Because you loved me, ooh, baby

You gave me wings and made me fly
You touched my hand I could touch the sky
I lost my faith, you gave it back to me
You said no star was out of reach

You stood by me and I stood tall
I had your love, I had it all
I'm grateful for each day you gave me

Maybe, I don't know that much
But I know this much is true
I was blessed because
I was loved by you

You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldn't speak
You were my eyes when I couldn't see
You saw the best there was in me

Lifted me up when I couldn't reach
You gave me faith 'cause you believed
I'm everything I am
Because you loved me

You were always there for me, the tender wind that carried me
The light in the dark shining your love into my life
You've been my inspiration through the lies you were the truth
My world is a better place because of you


You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldn't speak
You were my eyes when I couldn't see
You saw the best there was in me

Lifted me up when I couldn't reach
You gave me faith 'cause you believed
I'm everything I am
Because you loved me

You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldn't speak
You were my eyes when I couldn't see
You saw the best there was in me

Lifted me up when I couldn't reach
You gave me faith 'cause you believed
I'm everything I am
Because you loved me

I'm everything I am
Because you loved me

Schlumberger Vacation Trainee 2011 (Chapter 2: SIPP & QHSE Training)

Assalamualaikum..

after a looong time, and now finally i had a chance to type the 2nd chapter of my VT story. *while everybody busy eating, chatting etc etc cuz its Hari Raya Haji, people! :))

the 2 nd chapter will talk more on my 3 days training in jakarta, exactly in The Park Lane Hotel, Kuningan. before i went to jakarta, Bu Kris reminded bout the ticket and the date via email and phone call *the phone call was when I was in Semarang for NUEDC, before semifinal -.-"* . then, aby *yup another thing to be done with my big black baby all time fav team mate* and I went together to jakarta, of course by the tickets and taxi paid by Schlumberger. hhe

and this where the story of 'super minder icha' started again *after NUEDC*. only God knows how i felt was. there were 20 degree and 20 diploma students from all over Indonesia who passed the final selection. and for me, an average student from a nowhere college suddenly came up to join this training. everyone kinda like 'where on earth are you from'? yup, whatever it is, im already there, meeting those people from well-known universities and colleges, so just do what i suppose to do in Park Lane, which to prepare myself before the VT.

well, lets go to the serious matter. hhe the training objective is to prepare all the VT students regarding the safety, injury, health, quality, and also environment. which suppose to be very important when you would like to join this 'The Blue' company and also any other company i think. safety first, people! :)) the training started with brief explanation about what we gonna go through for 3 days ahead, about the Do's and Dont's and some important reminders before we go to our base assigned. then, the training continued with Pak Yayat from Transportation and HSE Management of Slb, and he explained about QHSE Induction and etc etc every single details bout QHSE matter. but still in the end, a VT student like us will never be allowed to do anything because everything seems to be dangerous especially when you're assigned as FS or FE and even MT. beside pak yayat, there were also bu aprilia who helped to explained bout the safety thingy.

rite i think that serious matter will never be that attractive. haha i got more experience about meeting new people *though am this 'minder parah' getting know new people made me realize how life is all about. yup, life doesnt evolve only about 'me, myself and I' but also people around me. here goes I got 39 new great friends *though they still hardly remember which college I came from, hha* and spent 3 days with them, all seems good. my room mate was Fida, from UPN Yogya and she was very MEDOK -__-a

well, the most important facts about my friends in this VT is most of them are javanese and speak veary medokly! hhe another friend was assik and yoga from malang and wanto from jogja. and aulia a surabayan but studying in samarinda. all of them ever communicate using javanese in front of me! im not bening racist, but i just dont understand what they are saying somehow, it sounds so damn different with my indonesian tounge. but then, i still appreciate them as my new friends, and hope this friendship last forever. :)

but then, the most important part of this training was the hotel and the food! we got times to pamper ourselves and eat as much as we can! like bu kris said, this is the time for 'perbaikan gizi' especially for those who are staying out of hometown, far from enough nutrition by their parents. haha

well, not much to be told for this few days of training, but still another good experience, though. :)

Schlumberger Vacation Trainee 2011 (Chapter 1 : Recruitment)

Assalamualaikum..

finally, after a long long time, I had a chance to type everything about my VT experiences! :D

rite, a Vacation Trainee is a program from Schlumberger *an oilfield service company frome France* or in another name could be considered as an internship program. the objective of this program is to give a general preview and real experience of how the lifestyle of Schlumberger would be. the trainee was given a chance to be part of Schlumberger for a month, do exactly what the employee do and the progress of the VT is being observed by the Field Service Manager (FSM) and also being help by the mentors assigned. but before I was assigned in this VT program, I have to go through the interview first. the interview that I never thought gonna be that way! well, it was an interview for the future employee of SLB, yup the VT interview was exactly the same level as the employee! and for a person like me, who never had any experience or even being taught about how an interview would be it was a very full of luck of me that I successfully pass the interview!

the interview was divided into 4 main section, where in every section there is elimination for the applicant who failed in that section. means, they should go home with empty hand if they do not pass any section. and me, without any preparation at all and just go for the interview only to gain the experience of what exactly a job interview is, successfully pass with flying colours in every section. :)) I never expect I would even pass the written test furthermore to be selected as a VT. hha anyway, the first interview was about a question in english. where you have to pick one card and answer the question. i think the purpose of this section is to know that the applicant have the ability to speak in english or not. an me, Alhamdulillah, went through it smoothly. and I still remember that I have to answer the question in front of Pak Arief Darmawan, SLB Prabu Well Services ex-FSM.

then, i have to wait for the announcement and lucky me i was in. its kinda sad of seeing many applicants for employee have to go home because they failed in the first section. next, I have to sit for the written test. if I not forgotten, the written test includes, applied maths, engineering maths, applied physics, electrical physics, IQ test and english test. when i openend the question book, i kinda cant stop staring at it. hha me answering those hard question?? Alhamdulillah i manage to answer, though not all of it. and after almost an hour sitting for the exam, i have to wait once again. and without expectation at all, again my name was in. and i have to be ready for the 3rd section, which was the group discussion. if i not mistaken, there are almost 20 individuals who get into the group discussion and we were divided into 3 groups.

i was in the group with another 5 candidates for this VT program, include my old time favourite team mate, M Syallaby. we were asked to design and create a prototype of a vehicle that could be used in the pole and the desert. by that time, my creativity was challenged, and i have to think hard with my group what should we create. and what's more interesting, we have to communicate in english. if the recruiter (Bu Kris n Pak Wijaya) heard that we use Indonesian or palembangnese, we were scolded. hhe after 30 minutes of designing, we have to present our prototype. the presentation have to be done by each individuals from the group. and this one i dont exactly know what is the purpose. hhe :p then, after all of us finished the presentation, we have to wait some more for the result for the final interview, which was held the next day. while waiting, i spent my time having conversations with my seniors who applied to be the employee and kinda sharing things. but what's weird was it was me to share with them about many things. see, i think am a story teller. hhe then, after quite a loong wait, finally the announcement was published and guess what, am the only female candidates (for VT and include employee) who successfully to be given a chance for the interview. once again, Alhamdulillah. :)

the next day, the time for a real job interview for a newbie like me. before that, i never mention that i brought any documents right for my test? hha yup2 i only wrote down my GPA in the registration form and thats it. haha then, for the next day, which was the interview was held at the Novotel Hotel Palembang *starred hotel, mamen* I have to bring my CV, which I just prepared it during the night by copying the sample of CV from kak oim. -.-" then, i went for the interview with aby, yup he also got the interview chance. see, can i do things different with aby? debating with him, and now interview also with him. hhe :P okeh, aby and I were the first candidate to be scheduled for the interview. I was interview by Ibu Krisdiana Wardhono and aby was interview by Pak Wijaya Chendra. and guess what, I took more than 30 minutes for the interview. a smooth long conversation with Bu Kris which i never prepared for. because kak oim said the preparation was only to pray before the interview so that i can be calm enough to answer the questions. for me, the interview was a conversation between a mother and a daughter. i was asked about many things and Alhamdulillah I can answer it smoothly and seriously never expect that I can do it. at that time, I never really care whether I pass or not because the most important thing for me is the experience. for a 3rd sem average college student, what else i can expect from myself? am doing things to gain the experience, of course. :) and yup, i never expect at all to be selected. and 4 moths after that, I was called by Bu Kris and tole Aby and I have to go through the MCU for the final test. Alhamdulillah :)

*to be continued cuz this thing should be divided into chapters* hhe :P
