3rd day of e.COM 2004

In the wee morning I sat at the e.COM Security Check Table at the
lobby waitin' for my Dad to bring my laptop and some clothes to
change into (I ran out of clothing when I slept over @ Nindya's
place). Orang2 yang gak tau gw lagi nungguin Bokap, pada absen ke
gw gitu. Yang lewat lift juga (lift berada di dalem sedangkan gw
berada di luar) keluar doeloe tuk laporan ama gw bahwa mereka gak
telat... Gw yang, "Ya udah langsung ajah ke ruang 311, nanti gw
nyusul." Cuz my dad was running late, I went upstairs to do the
briefing and stuff like the days before. After the briefing then
my dad came, so I went downstairs again to meet him. I feel bad,
for my dad was late to the office just cuz he had to stop by at
my campus to give me my laptop >,< I'm sorry Daddy...
It's a Friday, and all the activities which usually end at 12PM 2day
ended at 11:30 AM...so we started the entertainment earlier than
usual, and for the guys who had to pray, they went to the mosque.
I met my friend Ninta, who substituted for Dian who fainted on the
1st day of e.COM (refer to the entry on September 1st). Ternyata
dia jago nyanyi!! Padahal doeloe waktu di Amrik biasa ajah dech
nyanyi-nya...ternyata kata ade2 kelasnya dia menjadi juara 2
Smunsa Idol (SMUN Satu Bogor Idol)!!! Ya udah, I asked her to
perform for the lunch entertainment thingy, but she didn't want
to..so I just went downstairs to the lobby by myself.

Suddenly Mentari (the Head of Event Handler for the Opening and
Closing Ceremony plus the lunch entertainment) said that the UKM
Band BiNus Syahdan couldn't come and that we didn't have anymore
people to fill in for the show...then *ting* I got an idea!!! Gw ke atas
dan gw seret nyang namanya Ninta yang lagi ngejaga tas2nya
temennya yg pada lagi sholat dengan LO-nya A'Aming. Gw minta
A'Aming ngejagain tas2 temen2nya, en gw seret tuch anak ke
lobby!!! huehehehe kejam yak?! But at last she wanted to sing for me
on my request, and good thing Adisti is a good piano player so she
could play the piano part of "Valentine" that was the special song
that Ninta could do best! Before Ninta started singing, she had a li'l
interview wit MC Pops (Eko) and said that she's only singing cuz the
Project Leader (that would be me) told her to do so... (T_T)
kesannya kayak gw bersalah bangeeett...

Well, everybody liked the lunch entertainment 2day, there was a big
crowd at the lobby, and also on the 2nd, 3rd and 4th floor all staring
down at the lobby. And I just ate my lunch at about 1 PM when I
actually promised Adisti that I would watch the semi-finals of her
division, Spelling Bee Competition, so I came late for the semi's. I
only got a chance to see a small part of it, cuz then someone called
me through the walkie-talkie which was on the lowest volume, the
Spelling Bee neeeded silence. But then I was happy cuz the Spelling
Bee was my idea and I just made the basics of it, but Adisti and her
team mewujudkannya melebihi apa yang gw perkirakan!!! Gw
terharu! Thank you Adisti and friends!

Seperti biasa gw bersih2in 311 tapi kali ini dengan bantuan Faustina
dan orang ISS. Ada sebagian anak2 yang langsung ke STC tuk beres2
di sana, dan sebagian masih di kampus JWC tuk ngeberesin ruangan2
yang dipake semi-finals-nya Debate. Setelah yang di JWC selese gw
& Nindya kan mo pulang ke tempatnya Nindya, jadi gw minta Karim
tuk nganterin, eh pas udah keluar kampus dia malah belok kiri di
pertigaan, bukannya kanan! Ternyata ada masalah di STC...the
chairs that STC ordered from the supplier were late, and we didn't
know what time the chairs were gonna come...it might be possible
that the chairs would come on Saturday morning...which means that
we only have 1 hour in the morning to take care of THREE FLOORS
in a mall!!!

Ya udah, Karim was the first to break the bad news to the others,
then I continued it to tell them to go home cuz it's already late in the
night, especially for the girls. When I was just about to finish my
part, suddenly Karim got a call and Heaven (I mean it, there's a guy
named Heaven at my campus) shouted, "The chairs are here!!!" And
right at that moment I hugged Nindya who was closest to me and
cried...I assure you those were tears of joy and thanks to
Allah SWT...tangisan lega gitu looohhh >_< Eh malah si Heaven
nanya gw, "Kenapa Mut? Lo takut e.COM ini gagal?" No! I was not
afraid that this e.COM would end in a disaster, cuz I trust my
friends and I trust in God, I was crying cuz I felt relieved that
everything was gonna be OK... Then it became a li'l circle of me,
Heaven, Karim, Nindya, and Edo, Edo says that, "For every door
that closes before us, God will open a window..." Then I stayed a
while to see the others lifting up chairs, and after that Nindya
and I went back to her place, but this time with Vera.
