"real" University

Staying 2 months in new city, new working athmosphere, new people around remind me of last conversation with Pa Keith McKinley last august in Bandung Alliance International School.

That day I told him about living and working in a remote-area Public Health Center in South Borneo, completing my mandatory government service. How people's characters, how they live, how they describe and perceive a sickness and their appreciation to health worker. Also about how the government take over the poor-society health coverage system that still, seemed complicated and needed to be improved, about the people who keep pretend their complaints of sickness thought nothing serious happened, just because thinking that everything is their right and the country paid for that.
All things that I could'nt get in the university.
Literally, it is what we called as Public Health. I got 4 CSU of it in Univ and another 6 week of internship in Public Health. But when I got involved with it in real world than I found out that it's not even 10% of what we have in fact.
Shortly.... We learn each things, each single day, from everyone, in any places.
