Jasinga Nightmare


2012 was a year to remember. Because in that year I had an extraordinary experience. The great experience was KKN. I got a lot of experiences in KKN, starting from how to survive and make something meaningful for the society. It was not easy for me to give to the community and the heavier condition how to be at home with people I've just met. There were jokes, and also conflicts. All united, making it anticlimax at the end.
