Di semester 5 ini saya mengontrak satu mata kuliah di luar Bahasa Inggris, yaitu Seminar Pendidikan Agama Islam (SPAI). Dosennya bernama Dr. H. Endis Firdaus, M.Ag, yang agak-agak nyentrik dan pemikirannya aneh. Ceritanya, di SPAI ini kami harus melakukan kegiatan observasi dan menggelar seminar hasil observasi tersebut di kelas setiap pekan. Dan jreenng.. ternyata kelompok saya harus melakukan observasi tentang agama Kristen Katolik. Akhirnya pada 26 September 2011, meluncurlah saya, Hasah, dan Ryan ke Gereja Santo Laurentius yang beralamat di Jalan dr. Setiabudi. Gereja ini gak jauh UPI, cuma satu kali naik angkot. Semua orang yang kami temui di sana sangat ramah meski saya dan Hasah berhijab. Dari mulai satpam, ibu sekretariat, sampe bapak pastor. Kami kemudian berkesempatan untuk berbincang dengan salah satu pastor (nama dirahasiakan). Tema yang kami angkat adalah ajaran berpuasa dalam Kristen Katolik. Tenyata dalam Katolik pun ada istilah dan anjuran untuk berpuas...

Dalam mata kuliah Liason Interpreting, kami, seluruh kelas 5B Bahasa dan Sastra Inggris 2009 UPI mengadakan kunjungan ke Kedutaan Besar Amerika Serikat (AS) untuk Indonesia di Jalan Medan Merdeka Selatan 5, Jakarta Pusat. Peraturan di sana amat ketat. Kami tidak diperkenankan masuk dengan membawa ponsel atau barang-barang berbaterai lainnya sehingga kami tidak dapat mengambil gambar saat berada di dalam. Masuk ke dalam kedutaan pun cukup sulit karena kami harus menjalani sejumlah pemeriksaan. Di dalam, kami dikumpulkan di sebuah aula kecil tempat kami menerima beberapa materi dan penjelasan mengenai AS. Pemateri adalah seorang native speaker yang berasal dari Amerika, dan sedang mengikuti program pertukaran pelajar di Indonesia. Setelah sesi materi dan tanya jawab berakhir, kami dipersilakan mengunjungi perpustakaan yang ada di sana, Kunjungan yang berlangsung selama dua jam itu memberi kesan yang amat mendalam. Selain bisa lebih mengenal AS, kami juga diberi tahu ...

Place: Amphitheatre Building, UPI, Bandung Date: Sunday, 5 June 2011 Cast: Agil Purnama, Yoga Brahma, Sofyan Widianto, Muhammad Arizal Rukmana, Prita Annisa Utami, Fira Nursya’bani After we performed “the bear”, it was our second performance in AECS 2011. Talking about the concept of this dramatic poetry reading, we tried to show the audiences how technology has changed people's life. First, we acted like children, playing traditional games, singing traditional song. And it slowly changed. We still acted like children but with modern stuff. The girls were busy with their cellphone and the boys were busy with any kind of modern games. Thus, we began to read the poetry entitled Notasi Kecil Anak-anakku by Saeful Badar. It was about the children’s life that changed from traditional into modern, the children that forget what they should defend. This performance was success and got a lot of attention. Saeful Badar NOTASI KECIL ANAK-ANAKKU, 1 Telah punah anak-anakk...
