First of all, my apology as I am pretty late in updating this blog as you already know I am busy, not busy but literally superb with my studies. Every day I am tired and exhausted as my class schedules change each week and I have evening classes even though I did not enroll evening class. Yeah, I have to commute to reach my campus, give it 1 hour. I have to change the bus once and then take a tram. Further, I have started having assignments. For me having a bunch of assignments is not a big issue, but my concern is when I need (no choice) to work with a person who wants to stand out among others and doesn't respect how to work as a team. This makes me more tired😒let's say it experiences as in the workforce, we encounter the same situation. Forget about it anyway, because I am lucky as I have met new friends and they are nice people so we can support each other!👌😍

Anyway, last week on 21st October 2023 my dearest friend Riche sent me a message that Suci and Uun came to her house and got their monthly money. And the next day Novi came and received her assistance as well. If you are following Ichikraft, I mentioned that Novi takes an internship for 2 months. And now her internship has finished. She told Riche that she wanted to meet me someday. Oh...dear...that's a very hard wish to fulfill....😢 one of my friends also has been saying the same thing many times about visiting his hometown... In another article, I mentioned that some years ago somebody said to me that what I have been doing to help those kids is silly and just to show off. Yet in reality, I do not know those children, and the kids and their families also do not me either. My friends on another hand, also have no idea about my Ichikraft project. When I want to help there is no reason to just do it with the hope Novi, Uun, and Suci are able to change their fate by breaking down the chain of poverty in their family through education. Well, what can I do right now is to do my best at studying, have a great job to earn more money, and travel to visit those kids and best friends. Yeah, now my best friends live in three different countries; Indonesia, Singapore, and Japan. But someday maybe I will travel around the world as now my new friends come from many countries😄😊

Speaking of which, this month Novi got IDR 300,000 for her school assistance while Suci and Uun received IDR 175,000 each. Additionally, each one of them got IDR 100,000 to support their family. My message to Uun, Suci, and Novi has always been the same, "study hard at school, and never give up on whatever you want to be." I am really proud of them as three of them have been working hard to show me their courage.

Welcome back to our update! It's been a while, how have you been? I hope all of you are sound and safe!🤗 Today I am going to share one of my happiness with all of you! Indeed, for you who are following our update,  would notice it's about Ichikraft's school assistance!😉

On 22nd September 2023 evening, my dearest Riche sent me a message that Novi, Uun, and Suci, came to her house and finally took their monthly money! I am happy to see it as Uun and Suci looked great, meanwhile, Novi was absent because she took...I do not know how to say it, however, it is more likely an internship. Wow, I feel great with a lot..a lot of hope that after graduating from high school she will manage to find a proper job. Exactly, I want her to continue her studies at university. However, this way it is not as easy as you think if we are born in a poor family. Therefore, one thing that I want to see is that Novi will be able to upgrade her life by finding a job. The key to breaking the cycle of poverty is education. Do you agree? Well, I have a class that is called Development Economics; let's see how to help people who live in poverty. In my view, the first and beyond everything is to give those people an education that is the only reason why I have been working on the Ichikrfat project. Maybe some of you will think, "It is only 3 children, what is a good thing about the Ichikraft project?" Who knows, the future is a mystery!😊

The school assistance for Novi this month is IDR 300,000, while Uun and Suci got IDR 175,000 each. With an additional IDR 100,000 for each one of them to assist their family. As I mentioned before, even though the situation of COVID-19 crisis is over... I want to keep my decision to give support to those children's families. Not much, but I do hope it's helpful.

Thank you for reading my article. I know it's kind of late to give an update because it has been a week since the children received the money. Well, my day is busy as my class has started on Monday. I am still learning and making an adaptation and observing anything about the education system at my university including the tools, assignments, and exams. One example: take-home-exam. I had never heard of it before as I studied until my first university in Indonesia. "Do I need to make a paper and submit it then I sit down at home and have an online exam for 2 hours or more?" What an idiot I am, right, with those questions. Exactly! In the class, as I said, I am still making an adaptation.
