My name is Pujiati Sari. Puji for short.

I am in my senior year of the mathematics education


study program of Tadulako University. I was born in Jakarta, November 2nd 1990. On 1995, I
and my family transmigrated from Jakarta to Palu. I think, life in Palu is better than life in
Jakarta. I thank to god because I can study here. Study here is cheaper enough. I think if I was
still living in Jakarta, may be I could not study to higher level.
I have five old sisters and a young brother. I am sixth from seven generation. In my family,
Just one old sister who had graduated at bachelors degree whereas other of 3 old sisters just
graduated from senior high school, and they had merried. So just I, one of my old sister, and
my brother who still continue study until now. Those are the reasons which make me to have
dream, to study at higher level.
My fathers name is Abdul Rahim. He is a tailor at our home. My mothers name is
Tjasminah. She is food seller at Tadulako University. My parents salary is a little, certainly it
is not enough to finance my life and others. We are a simple family, but we are rich because
peacefulness and happiness. Sometimes life gets hard and I do need shoulders to learn on,
when it comes to this, nothings better than having my family on my side. I am happy to have
a big family, and I really love my parents. They are inspirator for me and my brother-sister.
They always teach me about the value of life: living together in peacefulness, appreciating
otherss works and helping people. I thank my parent for all my achievements. My parents
are the greatest motivator I knew. They always support me to do something impossible.
People wonder, how could I could continue my study while our parent still did not have fix
income. My mother always said we may not have money, but it will not stop us to get
knowledges. God will always help people searching for knowledge.
I am a Muslim, believe in one almighty God, life beyond, and my duty as God servant to do
righteous deed in this world. I live in one simple reason, I was sent as human to be blessing
of universe (As my religion taught that Islam and its people should be the blessing of
universe, because they have duty to make the best system civilization). My religion view is so
related with values and life of my parents. They are so obedient muslims, and taught their
children to be good people, helping each other and life in the right path.
Since I was child, my parent has been teaching me to be a stand alone and to be a hard
worker. When I was student both elementary high school and junior high school , I sold cake
at my school. I did that because I want to help my parent. Overeas when at senior high
school, I helped my mother to sell food after finished my school.
I knew that my parent did not have much money to buy me some tools which needed, such as
mobile phone, computer, etc. My parents salary just enough to eat daily. So I must get them
by myself. Once upon time, I took the initiative to get whatever that I want. When I was
thirdth at senior high school, I got inspiration from my teacher and my old sister to study
about writing. I saw that writing was activity which very useful for my future. I wanted like
them who had many achievements in writing. I just have dreamt that I can be like them.
Actually, I studied hard about writing. After a few months, I joined a writing competition. It
was organized by Radar Sulteng newspaper. The theme of writing competition was Guru
professional. Finally, I was the winner of writing competition, and I got a laptop as gift. It
was ungorgetable experience. I throught it is the most uxurious tool which ever I had. Until
right now, it is still on. I always use it to write, and now many articles, papers, and essays that
I made. Moreover last October 2011, my writing had published in Antology book Secret of

Writing. I am very happy now because my dream come true. I can be a writer at local and
national level. Honestly, I just want to say thank to god for this fortune. I hope I can go at
international level via international journal.
Since 2008, I have been getting the village develop academian scholarship from Eka Tjipta
Foundation (ETF). I have been getting full scholarship. But I throught it was not enough. So I
took initiative to be a private teacher at Madani Private Course (MPC), Ibnu Sina Private
Course (IPC), and also make private class by myself.
Right now, I am joining many organizational activities. I am still to be active member at three
groups. First, at Unit Pengkajian Islam Mahasiswa (UPIM) organization. It is organization at
university level which movement in religious activity. My friends believe me to be a
treasurer. So, for 2 periods, My position in that organization is a treasurer. I am very happy to
work together with them because they always give me inspiration and knowledge about many
things. Second, I am active at Unit Kegiatan Penalaran Mahasiswa (UKPM). It is
organization at faculty level which movement in skill activity such as writing and operating
of computer. Here, I am to be a coordinator of Pekan Ilmiah Mahasiswa (PIM). Thirdth, I am
joining Forum Lingkar Pena (FLP) Central Sulawesi. Here, I am to be a staff of writing and
publication sector.
Since I was teenager, I have always dreamt to be a mathematician who also have good
writing skill. I hope all of my dreams to be come true. I always pray to Allah about that.
Dreaming, believing, and I will make it happen.

Pujiati Sari. Begitulah orang tua menamaiku pada 20 tahun silam. Alhamdulillah orang
tuaku memberi nama yang sangat indah buatku. Setelah nanya sama Om google, akhirnya
kutemukan juga makna dari namaku. Puji artinya Doa/harapan/pujian. Ati artinya memberi.
Sedangkan Sari artinya Bunga-harum/taman/yang penting, yang bermanfaat. Jadi, kalau
diartikan secara keseluruhan, sekiranya bermakna: Harapan agar menjadi seseorang yang

dapat mengharumkan dan memberi manfaat. Subhanallah manteB (diakhiri dengan huruf B

kapital sebagai penekanan makna hehe

Atas izin Allah dan ayahku Abdul Rahim, aku dilahirkan oleh seorang Ibu bernama
Tjasminah tepat hari Jumat, 2 November 1990. Hari kelahiran yang insya Allah penuh
berkah. Aku lahir di pinggiran Kota Metropolitan yaitu Tjg. Priuk, Jakarta Utara. Kata Ibu,
aku begitu cepat keluar dari rahimnya. Nggak dirasa aku sudah merojol dengan mudah di
rumah sakit. Suster yang menangani Ibuku pun kagum ketika aku lahir tanpa adanya rasa
sakit yang diderita Ibuku. Ya mungkin lantaran aku lahir pada urutan ke 7, jadinya semakin
mudah saja Ibuku melahirkan. Aku bersaudara 8 orang, namun 1 orang kakakku telah
meninggal pada usia belum menginjak 1 tahun.
Aku menghabiskan masa balita dan batitaku di Jakarta. Berhubung rata-rata keluargaku
tinggal/menetap di sana. Sebagian juga ada yang menetap di Bandung. Meski menetap di
Jakarta, bukan berarti kami penduduk asli situ. Ayah dan Ibuku berdarah Jawa-Sunda. Namun
mereka dipersatukan karena cinta di daerah Jakarta, berhubung kakek dan nenekku juga
menetap di sana.
