Ep. 3

There was a quote that says “Road to success is always under construction”. I do believe in that phrase. As I put my name in Emirates mailing list, on 27 March 2010 (my sixth semester), Emirates sent me an invitation to attend their recruitment in Indonesia. Unfortunately, I’m still hesitating to go. I still have my study and my responsibility to finish my study (remembering what daddy has gone through to put me in that school). So, with a broken heart, I didn’t attend the recruitment. And yes, I regret it, for since then, Emirates haven’t come to hold any recruitment in Indonesia yet again.

BUT, I guess God has another plan for my life. Another better, greater, and even spectacular!

By the date of 4^th December. 2010, I tried my luck to attend the walk in interview of Singapore Airline. Although it was stated clearly that they required any applicant to have their degree certification (I was on my 7^th semester, and of course I don’t have my bachelor certificate yet), I came. And that was the first time I got my shock. Many pretty girls, smart looking, great appearance, and yet SAME dream. We are (no doubt) each other’s contender. And that is the point where I realize that to become a flight attendant is everybody’s dream job as well, that’s not only my desire. The moment before I entered the room, I was praying to God (it become my signature same prayer that I always asked to God). “God, if this is for me and destined to be mine, please put me through all of the process, but if it isn’t, please failed me on the initial process so that I won’t expect so too much on this”. (God Lord Jesus is always GOOD to me, as for me, He always answer my prayers in his own way). As expected, I failed the recruitment in just a few steps, within a few hours. I was a little bit hurt, but at least God gave me the answer.

Well, knowing it was me that we are talking about, one failure doesn’t stop me to get my dream. On 19^th April, 2011, another Singapore Airline recruitment was held. This time, I was less nervous than before. I came to the same venue as on December, waited, pray (the same prayer ever), got to the registration table, weighted, measured, BMI calculation, waited, introducing ourselves (10 person at a time and only 4-5 will proceed), group discussion, and if you’re successful, you’ll have to come the day after to proceed the recruitment process. And AGAIN, I was failed, I do really think that my to be achieved bachelor degree certificate is a real big deal for them. So be it, rejected, gone home, and surprisingly, I was not that “down”. (God worked on it that time).

One thing that I forgot to mention is, I still do not tell anyone of my family member except my aunt (my truly supporter) and my big brother (I need him to take me to the venue). I don’t want to tell my grandma or my dad, coz it was still, uncertain. I do still working on my dream, as hard as I can, collect all the info and I believe that one day, God has His own better plan that will come just on the right time.
