THE RECTOR'S APPEAL FOR NOT SMOKING IN CAMPUS, DEMAND MAKE A HEALTHIER UNPAR


On November 5, 2013, the rectorate issued a letter of appeal for an appeal not to smokin on campus. Unpar’s Rector publishes this policy with health reasons and also makes Unpar better, other campus policies that have banned cigarettes within the campus are also the reasons that motivate the rectorate to publish the policy. This policy is spawned positively from various circles, although there are some refusals than some students who claim to be smokers.               

The rector is very seriously eager to implement this policy, where the circular letter published on November 5, 2013 informs us that this policy will take place 1 week after this letter is circulated, more precisely on November 11, 2013. The rectorate seriously wants to keep the policy which is still quite new in this Unpar scope. One of the seriousness of the rectorate is the direct coordination with security in the implementation of sanctions for violators of this policy.               

Most students claimed to have known about the issuance of this policy. Students respond with different response. For students who do not smoke tend to agree, and the tend of smokers do not agree. The disagreement of this smoker student especially because rectorate reportedly will not provide a smoking room area that is expected for the students smokers to support their needs. The MFI itself agrees to this policy as the usage brings Unpar towards the better, but the MFI is very unfortunate that the non-smoking room area is actually provided for in the regulation no. 51 of article 51 on non-smoking for public places.

Stress in a Capitalistic World, Part II : Value in Society, Value in Yourself

Most of the articles I relate to call what I'm experiencing a "burnt-out". It's different from feeling tired after working 24 hours on a useless paper or homework. It's not something that can be alleviated with relaxation. Although the term is mostly use to describe fatigue simply caused by overwork, some psychologists disagree and so do I. The easiest way to analyse this is finding the root of why people push themselves to prioritize work over all else anyway? Why can't they relax, meditate, take a vacation, and why are all those solutions  useless ? It's because they literally can't . If they do, the attempts will only make them worsen their anxiousness of possible repercussions. There's this compulsive desire, an overarching anxiety that whatever you do, however you improve, you are never satisfied. Got a promotion? There's a higher position. Became the CEO? You have to expand the business. And so on, and so on, and it never stops. And ...

Why I Started Writing Again

PROMPTS :: Your writing journey. Since I started high school I stopped writing, I got too busy preparing for the 6 rounds of exams I ended up taking. And when I started Uni, things just got busier. Such a big difference from my junior high days, I wrote 4-7 journal entries for English class, much like this one. And I found that I miss writing, though I couldn’t say that my pieces are anything life changing to the readers, but to me it means something. Because with writing I get to say things I don’t usually get to say out loud. Be it because I was too shy, I was insecure about my position, I might hurt the person I was speaking to, or I haven’t got the words at the time. Writing gave me so much freedom in terms of access to my own brain. Because when I write I’m usually not doing anything else, and I get to focus on my own thought. Like having a conversation with yourself. And this opens up so many sides of yourself you don’t normally get to know. It’s liberating in a w...
