My Uni'
23:25
Yes! My Uni'. Thats how they called the university in here, not university but Uni'. Like I mentioned before in my previous blog that now I am attending Leeds Beckett University for my master degree. I have lecturing three days in a week. I am studying 4 modules. I am taking Strategic Communication Planning, Global Business Environment, Corporate Communication in Intercultural Context and Research Methods. My classes on Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday so I have long weekend from Saturday to the next Monday, sometimes I use it for travelling especially on my first month in UK, I am travelling quite a lot.
Anyway after the news about me moving to UK, I got a lot of questions from my friends in Indonesia and even from here. So here it is.
Why are you getting Master?
When I was doing my research for my undergrad. Mom asked me what I am going to do next? my parents suggested to continue my education. I haven't thinking about it seriously at that time because all the hectic activities, doing internship and the thesis in the same time while still having class to attend. And when I almost finish my thesis, I made my decision to continue my degree and all the process went on.
Why study abroad, not in Indonesia?
Well, at the first time I have thought about several university in Indonesia but then why not going abroad?
Why UK?
It's always been dream to be in UK. Before moving to England, I was studying french for a short time. Thinking about how beautiful this country made me eager to come here. And to studying in international country is a great experience.
Why Leeds?
To be honest, I didn't put too much attention about choosing the city. I chose based on the university. And here I am, in Leeds. The cost of living in Leeds is cheaper too than in London so i guess being here is not bad at all.
Why Leeds Beckett University?
I did a lot of research before, I am not just randomly chose the university. There're dozens reasons I am studying in this university now. Google it and check their website then you'll know!. But from what I see, Leeds Beckett is an international university, they have a lot of international students in here. Students are coming from China, Thailand, Nigeria, Spain, Bulgaria, USA, Netherlands, India, Malaysia, Mexico and many else. In my class, there are more than 24 nationality.

Why Public Relation and Strategic Communication?
I graduated in Bachelor of Communication. My concentrate was Public Relations maybe this is the main reason why I chose this program again and the other reason I already explained it in my personal statement when I applied to uni.
So do you have any relationship now? LDR?
Yes, I do. I have a boyfriend in Indonesia. We're still together now. I believe our relationship is not to interfere my education but to support me. And I knew he did. As long as they communication still exists, I think there will be no problem with LDR. We have 7 hours different time within UK and Indonesia but until now we can still manage to chat and videocall.
When will you come back?
My friends are expecting me to come back for christmas or holidays but NO. I will be back next year at least after I finish my course. While I am here, I guess its better to use the break for travelling around rather than going back to Indonesia and the tickets are freaking expensive to go back.
