Motivation Quotation......

Aku meminta kepada Tuhan setangkai bunga, segar, Ia beri kaktus berduri. Aku minta kupu-kupu diberinya-Nya ulat berbulu. Aku sedih dan kecewa. Namun kemudian, kaktus itu berbunga indah sekali dan ulat itupun menjadi kupu-kupu yang sangat cantik. Itulah jalan Tuhan, indah pada masaNYA! Tuhan tidak memberi apa yang kita harapkan. Tapi Dia memberi apa yang kita perlukan. Kadang kala kita sedih, kecewa dan terluka. Tapi jauh di atas segalanya Dia sedang mengatur yang terbaik dalam kehidupan kita.............................................

exactly i can't tell much.
but probably something that i can share. When i was in my first year:
- i know nothing about what i'll be doing. techniques, fundamentals, etc (where here i am working with dynamic systems, human-robot interactions, cognitive modeling - i had zero knowledge)
- some people are a bit straightforward, some of them even had gut to tell straight to your face "you know almost nothing, and why you're here?"
> to face those challenges, i did boldly enrol for 8 classes - resulting me almost nothing during my first year (but i managed to grab the foundations of it).
> i am not saying i did cope well, but this a matter of interpretation.
> PhD research is a serious business - it is related with several skills, and something that we are trying to get.
> Ups and downs are common in life. But, the most important part is - trying to stay focus, istiqamah, and see things in a different perspective.
> After all, try to see phd as your work (and your passion), insya' Allah, actually you will define it in a very unique way.
> Try to get to the core of the problem, not the symptoms.

*insya' Allah you will.
