After The Programming Contest

Just like I said before, my team won the third place in Joints Programming Contest. After that, I told my parents about that. They were looked very happy. After that, my mother told about that to all of my families. After that, my mobile phone was rained by congratulation SMS. I felt happy and also confused. Hehe.. In the next morning, my friend from church sent me a congratulation SMS. She told me that my brother told her about that. I think my family is like a gossip machine. Haha.. Finally, I arrived at home. In there, I felt strange, because I was threaten very nicely. I don't think I would be threaten like that. Hehe.. After talk for a while with my parents. They told me to got the medal in International Olympiad, because if I get that, I will get a scholarship until I graduate from university. So, start from now, I will practice my programming skill more harder. Because I don't want to burden my parents more with my school fee. I hope I can get the medal. Hehe.. ^^V

My Trip To Jogja (Day 2)

On 29th March, We prepared ourselves for the final session of Joints Programming Contest. After we had prepared all things, we went to UGM for the final session. In there, all of the chosen 16 teams include us had prepared for the final session. Then Sir Indra and Ma'am Lenny left us when the contest was almost started. Then the final session was started. After 2 hours thinking for the solution, we felt very stress. After that, we were all joking and laughing for the rest 3 hours. Other teams were confused when they saw us. Maybe they thought that we were crazy. Haha.. After the contest finished, I got stomachache, so I went to the toilet. But the toilet was very horrifying. I felt so scared to go to that toilet. From the toilet, I joined them again and ate my lunch. Then we had a chat while waiting until half past four, because at that time the result of the test will be announced. When the result was going to be announced, I thought that my team won't won the final session. So I played games in my mobile phone. You know what happened next? My team won the third place in that contest. I was shocked when my team's name was mentioned because of won the third place. I almost thrown my mobile phone away. Hehe.. ^^ After that, we went back to hotel. We prepared ourselves to go for a walk. Then we went to Ambarukmo Plaza. We had dinner at Pizza Hut there. After that, we went for a walk again there. Then we went back to hotel and took a rest for a while. At half past ten, we were checked out from the hotel and went to the railway station by taxi. Then we were continuing our rest in the train to Bandung.

My Trip To Jogja (Day 1)

On 28th March, I went to Jogja with Sal, Que, Sir Indra, and Ma'am Lenny. We went there for the final session of Joints Programming Contest. We went there by train. We must arrive at the railway station at half past six, because the train departed at 7 o'clock. In the train we must wait for 8 hours until we arrived there. So I had a chat and listened to the music with Que while on the train. Poor to Sal.. He took a wrong seat. So it's hard to have a chat with me and Que. That's why he was looked so stress in the train. Poor Sal.. In the train we got free lunch. But it isn't delicious. So, we ate bread that I brought. After that, we arrived at the railway station in Jogja. Then we went to hotel by taxi. Sir Indra checked in for 2 rooms. 1 for the boys. 1 for the girls. The boys' room was in front of the girls' room. When we arrived there, my computer teacher told us through SMS to practice our programming. But we didn't do that. So, we played card together. Hehe.. ^^V Then, after Sir Indra and Ma'am Lenny came back from the UGM. We were told to take a bath. After that, we went out for dinner. At that time, I ate with double portion. Hehe.. ^^ After we had dinner then we went back to hotel and took a rest.

Horaaay!! My Team Passed The Qualification.. ^^

Finally, the Joints Programming Contest has announced the result of the qualification. And the result is.. My team has made it to pass the qualification and face the final session 2 weeks later. We were in the 16th position and teams that pass the qualification are only 16 teams. So, my team was quite lucky. Hehe.. ^^ Finally, after many times I join some programming contest, this is the first time I pass the qualification. I feel so happy, although i didn't pass the Maranatha Programming Contest. Then we got a special training from my computer teacher. The training was hard. I got headache several times because I was being ill when we were being trained. Poor me.. T_T We did this training until 27th of March. In the last day, the training wasn't take long time, because we must prepare for the next day. In the next day, we were going to Jogja.

Joints Programming Contest

Yesterday I and my team have faced the qualification of Joints Programming Contest. For this contest, my school send 3 groups. Each groups must have 1 until 3 members. The first group is Reinhard alone. He is the one that got the bronze medal in the last OSN(Olimpiade Sains Nasional). The second group is I, Que, and Sal. The third group is Jansen, Anam, and Jason. The qualification test was held online. So, we all met together in labkomp SMAK 1 BPK Penabur to do the test. To do the test, we only get 2 hours. The test is very hard. But my team had made it to finished 58 questions from 60 questions. Unfortunately, Anam's team had made all the questions. But they had no time to input the answered to the computer. So, they only answered 20 questions at all. Group that make me surprised is Reinhard's group. He had finished all the questions alone in just 100 minutes!! He is really genius. I hope I can be like him. Hehe.. ^^ The result of the test will be announced in 3 days. If I pass this qualification, I can go to Jogja to take the next test. I wish I can pass it. ^^

Training for Programming Contest

I feel happy and confused now. I am happy because I am registered to join 4 programming contests. There are Joints Programming Contest, Maranatha Programming Contest, ITHB Programming Contest, and OSK(Olimpiade Sains tingkat Kota). But I am confused to arrange my school schedule, because of my programming training. It's really make me stressful.. @_@ But I keep pass the day until now. I have done some training last Tuesday, Wednesday, and Saturday. This 3 days-training was done to prepare me to faced Joints Programming Contest. I think the training will be stressful like other training before. Fortunately, it's not. The questions given in the training is need a logic. So, I really need to use my brain to think of the solution. I really like that kinds of question. Some of the questions are funny too. So, I feel happy in the training. Hehe.. ^^

My Class Activity

Last Monday is a national holiday. My class takes this chance to do class activity. My class teacher, her husband, I, and all my classmates except Dion, Aki, Josephine, and Debora are taking parts in this activity. We were planning to go for a walk in PVJ. Then I ask my parents' permission to go there by motorbike and I get the permission. So, I go there by my motorbike. When I arrived there, there are still some of my classmates who didn't come yet. So, we waited until all of them arrived. After that, we went to Jonas to make a class photograph. Then, we went to KFC for having lunch. After that, we could have some free time until the movie that we want to watch was started. I used this chance to go to Gramedia. Luckily, I met my girlfriend, Que in Gramedia. Hehe.. ^^ Then we spent time together until the movie almost started. The movie that we watched is Pink Panther. It's a great comedy movie. I almost laughed along the movie. After that, we all go home. That was a great day. I felt so happy that day.. ^^

I hate anti-BOT!!! Grrr...

In RO Zeus, the online game that I am playing now. There is an anti-BOT. It's a program to detect if there's someone who is using BOT by giving them a colorful picture that form 3 digits of number and we have to guess what number it is. BOT is a program that we can set to play our RO character without touching mouse and keyboard. It is set automatically. So, if the anti-BOT is checking the character, the BOT can't pass the anti-BOT test and that account will be banned. Unfortunately, when I was playing my character at mid night. The anti-BOT test suddenly appeared at my monitor. But I failed the anti-BOT test, so I have accidentally banned my account. It's really made me down. After that I went sleep with stressful mind. In the morning, I make a new account and started to play again from the beginning. It's really wasting my time. I really hate anti-BOT. Grrr..
