2015+1=2016

2015 have been an important year for me, my life probably.
I've started 2015 as a highschool student trying his best to get accepted at his chosen Institute of technology. That moment probably is one of my most ambitious moment in my life.
before this year I am:
  • A lazy kid who doesn't keep telling himself that he is smart enough, even though he have an awful record on most of his exam
  • a person who will go home at 5 PM at straight to playing games
  • a person who will go to sleep at 10 to 11 PM no matter how hard the test will be
  • somebody doesn't have any clue what kind of that he wanted
  • somebody who will not even think to be a staff participant at an event
  • somebody who doesn't care on how to actually write a report or proposal correctly
  • somebody who never even think on writing a paper
Well, this year have been AMAZING to me. I started to actually work and study really hard for my test and task this year. this might seems like something that most people do, but not for me. I do everything carelessly, before this year that is. I actually sleep at 1 AM to actually study. I've stopped playing my games and start doing my job. 
I actualy DO those things
I even remember when I got sick from "to much studying"

Even better, I basically evolve (pokemon kind evolving, not those evolving over generation thing) from a highschool student into a College Freshman. I'm currently studying at Tenth November Institute of Technology in Surabaya. I actually move from my comfy home to Surabaya. And event better, I choose one of the most dreadful major, Engineering. not just that, I actually have the courage to follow my passion and choose Engineering Physics as my Major. most people would ask me 3 times to makes sure they hear me. And most shocking of all, I actually volunteer myself to take care of some events. If future me tell past me that I would VOLUNTARILY take care of an event, I would have laugh for hours. 
And as an engineer, I started going home between 9 PM - 1 AM from my campus. That is a lot of improvement, 1 year ago, I would have nag for hours if I went home at 8 PM from school. I basically have submerged myself in a sea of task and deadlines.  

2015 have been a big game changer for me 
I hope 2016 will show me even more surprises and positive changes

Introduction

Hey humans, engineers, and creatures!
my name is Theodore Gautama Chandra, Theo or Theodore for short.
I'm Currently studying as a freshman at Institute Technology of Tenth November (ITS), Majoring in Engineering Physics. My current interest is in energy engineering, especially in renewable or sustainable energy. I'm currently hoping to be able to work at Chevron GE, especially here, at my country, Indonesia, is at the top of what geologist called the "ring of fire" which is loaded with Geothermal Heat. I have been my dream to be one of the initiator for Sustainable Energy or Renewable Energy.

I hope trough this blog, I would be helpful for people who just want to read random stuff on engineering or me.
