2 weeks ago, with my friends, I went to Dukuh Puthon. Yes, Dukuh Puthon, a place that can't be forgotten because I had been here for about 2 months. 2 months without thinking about college, mark, assignment and anything. 2 months surrounded by warm friends and people. 2 months doing whatever that I really want to do. And, 2 months for life process to grow.
Before, I had a friend who offered me to join her group -she's going to go to Lombok. I do remember, it was ago when I was on a train from Jakarta, there was a message "Dar, lu kkn dimana? Udah bareng gue aja di Lombok". Hwah, it was hard to say no. "Kapan lagi ke luar jawa kalau nggak pas KKN". But because of some reasons I choose to KKN at Karanganyar, not too far and I have known about the cost, way of living and others. Despite the fact that I really wanna go to Lombok, but yeah it's okay to say no.
KKN is one of my favorite subject at college. Because of KKN, I have new kind of friends, new warm family, cute kiddos and life learning. I do remember how it feels to be hugged by kiddos when I was standing in front of the class. A child suddenly hugged me followed by another kiddos one by one. I couldn't breathe and move even for a centimeter, but it was too lovely. Then waiting kiddos on a mosque to learn Iqra, having a ride while laughing on the end of the day after learning Iqra, those were so fun. Even I couldn't make a call because of the signal problem, couldn't make my phone online, trapped in coldness every day, I was still happy. I do remember, one day I wanted to make a call for my mom and my friend. It was not easy to connect the line. I have to go to another dukuh, but unlucky I was, my friend didn't answer my call. Then on the way of going home, I fell from my motorcycle. Yes, it was so complete. When I heard my phone rang, I had to run outside rapidly to get the signal. Oh my, it was. Yes, it was. KKN... plus and minus are melted to be one word "HAPPY".
Lucky I was, I got a solid group. Everything was done together. In so, nothing felt that hard. How about the projects? Because the aim of our group was "improve the youngster's motivation on education field", we played more in education fields like forming group study, making alat peraga pendidikan for elementary students, teaching Iqra also several subjects in a fun way and etc. Beside that, we created papan pengumuman warga and signs. Then we went to Karanganyar and Semarang participating on an art festival that I forget the name. We joined every youth meeting on Dukuh Salam and Puthon. Ah, there were many programs that I can't tell one by one. In short, I had 10 programs there. And my friend also had programs around 7 to 10. And there was a moment where all of us got sick. We got influenza, headache, sinus, and others in a same time.
I have mentioned before that we went to Puthon, 2 weeks ago. We decided to see our parent there, Pak Podo and his family. Everything is still all the same, warm and lovely. We slept over there for a day, on a same room when we were kkn ago. We were heading to the elementary school where we taught ago. And I still found my wall magazine over there, nothing changed except the color that's going to be pale, scraped by the time. I met the students who wrote letters to me. Then we went to Ndoro Dongker, seeing tea plantation while enjoying a cup of a warmth green tea. Cold weather, warm friends and good mood. After that we went to Candi Ceto. But unlucky we were, the weather were so cold, and thick fog made us couldn't see anything. Then we decided to go home, pack up our bag. We met kiddos at home and found our rent car was drawn and doodled by the kids "Mba Mas KKN" "Mas Adit and the blabla blaa.." . Yeay, see you some other day kiddos, wishing you all the best. See you my dearest friends, see you on top! Me loveyy yaa :")
