Episode 1: An Introduction

photo by: Asia Exchange

Hello,

My name is Ulfa Latifa Hanum. I came from a small city in Indonesia.

This is my first time writing for this Blog, and yes – I am thrilled to see how will it go. As a normal person, leaving the comfort zone would never be a pleasure. But here I am now, trying for the first time to write a post and leaving my comfort zone is both exciting and uneasy. I was awoken by this amazing post from Medium.com, entitled: You Will Always Suck at What You Do, Until You Do This by Cammi Pham. Better check that out if you need some intriguing motivation to try something new.

I would not limit the topic that will be posted here, but these might illustrate what you'll find:

  1. Scholarship - Right, a scholarship hunter! I've tried 3 Scholarship in year, KGSP or GKS, POSCO, and BK21. I will talk about Scholarship on Study to Korea, because I have dream to continue my master degree in South Korea.
  2. Language - Love language, no barrier to communication - Bahasa, English and Korean
  3. Indonesia - Home country, always stays in my heart
  4. Research, Biomedical, and IT Convergence Engineering - Research anytime, forming hypotheses and testify it
  5. and some other else

Hopefully, the stories here could give you information and motivation about the path of life you choose.

But definitely,  I don’t hate research. Instead, I’m craving more of it now when I have finished my Master degree.      When I did my master degree, I could see the passion burning within myself whenever I do trial and error in my experiments, synthesize my own materials, do the analysis, and I feel the heartbeat rushing while waiting and reading the result. I was not sure whether those symptoms were just because I have the urge the graduate. But now after the graduation and doing my doctoral degree, I realiz...
