Webinar : Be the tolerant Millennial

 

On Friday, December 3, 2021, the English Education Study Program at the Indonesian Christian University held a webinar Be the tolerant millennials which was held during the noon, from two in the afternoon to 4 in the afternoon with Iman Setia Harefa as the speaker and moderated by Wira Diw Silitonga. The speaker is a student from the UKI English education department  from batch 2019 , and he is also one of the people who successfully passed one of the Merdeka Campus program, namely student exchange.

In this webinar, Kak Iman, as the speaker, shared hir experiences during the student exchange program. Starting from how he had to adapt to a new environment, time differences, different ways of learning because he had more classmates and other things. Here he learned how to appreciate differences.
Everyone is different even though twins must have differences, differences are not a reason not to be united but make us rich in these differences and can make us stronger with it.
He also did not forget to give tips on how we can appreciate differences such as accepting and appreciating any differences that exist, not seeing these differences as a problem or a barrier in one way or another.

Consequences

 

Consequences must exist in every existing life. The consequence I got was that I couldn't get a state university because I wasn't serious.

Achievement

 

The achievement in my life that I have ever received is that I was once trusted to take part in a Bible reading competition in the local language when I was in 4th grade at church and thank God my group won 3rd place.

Lifestyle

 

My Lifestyle that I have as usual without anything special in it. For finances, I am used to saving more and if I spend money I usually spend more on important things in my life such as buying books, writing books, and others. For things outside of my needs, I usually buy them infrequently and prefer to just save the money.
For a healthy lifestyle I like to eat vegetables, fruit and milk. But to be honest, I don't like to exercise, I rarely do sports, I can even say I never do it. The reason is that I don't really like it, and neither can I.

Shopping for clothes

 

Clothing is a basic need in life that must be met. Usually I buy the clothes directly at the shop even though I'm in a pandemic like this, because I'm afraid that if I buy online, the item isn't as good as the picture given or there are other shortcomings. Even so, I once bought clothes online and luckily the goods according to the picture, but still I'm more comfortable shopping directly at the store because I'm used to shopping for clothes directly at the store instead of shopping online.

The future

 

My dream for my future is that I can become a more confident person, can be useful and be a blessing to many people, can help people and so on.
I really like writing, that's why I have a dream to be able to publish and publish my own works. Besides that, I also dream to be able to have my own songs because I really like listening to music, especially pop music. One more thing that is my dream, I really like languages, so I have a dream to be fluent in many foreign languages ​​and I want to teach English to many people so that the knowledge I have I can pass on to others because I have a dream that is not only I can but everyone should be able to. That is my dream for the future.

Communication

 

Actually I have a problem in communication with people or public speaking. There are several reasons, such as I am not able to express it to others, sometimes it is difficult for me to build good communication, especially with people who are not close to me. So I am often considered arrogant, do not want to get along, difficult to approach and so on. Even though I really want to be able to communicate smoothly with everyone but I don't know why I can only be really cool only to those who are close. I'm the type of person who when asked a new answer because sometimes I feel lazy or even afraid to say the wrong word and give a bad impression on people. I'm also the type of person who finds it very difficult to start new conversations with other people, therefore since childhood I have had few friends, but I'm not sad because even a little I am very grateful they are very kind to me and accept me as I am and dare to give me advice, opinion, criticism, input, advice so that I can be myself, and what I am instead of being someone else. I am very grateful to be around good people.

Destination

 

I have many destinations which I have ever visited. The area that I most often visit to spend my vacation time is Bandung. Why? Because from the time I was in junior high, high school, my family would definitely go to Bandung. The tourist attractions in Bandung that I have visited are the Maribaya Lodge, Dago Dream Park, Booscha, Floating Market, Saung Angklung Mang Udjo, Asia-Africa Conference and others. I visited some of those tourist attractions when I was in junior high and high school. An unforgettable thing for me in Bandung was when my family and I were on vacation in Ciwiday to pick strawberries directly. It was an unforgettable time apart from that when I was in my Lembang for the first time riding a horse accompanied by my mother.

Sport

 

Actually I don't like all kind of sport, I just like to watch match about sport. The kind of sport which i like so much to watch is Badminton. I ever joined to badminton community for 3 month when I was in Junior high school. The reason I like badminton because for me badminton is one kind of sport it's easy to play and people can play anywhere
