Source text - Indonesian Menunggu Hujan Lara Reda
Aku berjalan ke arah kelam lalu bertemu awan hitam. Aku menyapa keheningan dan bersiul penuh debu. Kelam menggaris malam. Awan hitam bermain duka. Keheningan menggali sunyi. Deru menguliti hati. Darah di ujung arteri. Menunggu instruksi tulang. Sel-sel di luar kendali. Kemudi diserang antibodi.
Aku melirik kelam. Kelam yang menghantam sel. Hening semakin diam. Imun melekat darah. Malam semakin dalam. Air mata melirih duka. Menerawang pada kemudi. Putar balik arah. Atau terus perang! Melawan arus kehidupan. (Si Hidup)
Akhirnya, aku memutuskan untuk hadiri seminar yang disarankan Dokter Amay. Seminar “World Lupus Day” atau hari lupus sedunia yang diadakan pada 10 Mei 2006. Aku kalahkan ego demi penyakitku. Demi mencari informasi yang lebih lengkap mengenai penyakit yang kuderita ini. Jalan masih panjang Sinta, masih banyak waktu yang mengharapkan kehadiranmu, bisik angin di telinga.
Seminar yang bertemakan lupus ini diselenggarakan oleh mahasiswa jurusan Farmasi ITB, bertempat di Aula Barat kampus ITB. Pagi ini masih berseri, kala aku melewati pintu besar yang kedua sisinya diapit oleh dua meja pendaftaran. Aku terus melangkah menuju ruang bagian dalam. Di sana terlihat barisan meja yang di belakangnya telah duduk berjajar beberapa dokter spesialis. Ada spesialis tulang, mata, kulit sampai darah. Sepertinya semua dokter yang bersangkutan tersebut bersedia datang untuk menjadi narasumber seminar. Sebelum acara utama dimulai, mereka mengadakan konsultasi gratis kepada para peserta seminar—rata-rata mereka adalah penderita lupus juga.
Kumanfaatkan kesempatan berharga ini. Kesempatan yang kumaksud adalah layanan konsultasi gratis oleh para dokter ahli. Hanya dengan membayar lima puluh ribu rupiah, termasuk uang pendaftaran sebagai peserta seminar juga. Sebut saja meja-meja tempat berkonsultasi dengan dokter itu adalah stand konsultasi gratis. Dalam stand yang berjajar rapih—lengkap dengan dokter spesialisnya—memberikan ruang khusus untuk membahas keluhan para pasien. Aku melihat meja paling ujung adalah tempat untuk membahas tanda-tanda dan gejala yang dirasakan sendi-sendi dan tulang-tulang, baik di kaki, tangan, dan seluruh tubuh. Dokter yang berada di belakang meja itu adalah ahli rheumatologi, aku membaca papan nama yang menyebutkan spesialisasi dokter tersebut.
Translation - English Until the gloomy rain subside
I walk toward a bleak side to meet the dark, unlit sky. I embrace silence occupied with dust. The bleak streak the night. The dark, unlit sky manipulates pain. The silence digs quietly. Clamor breaks the silence. The cell in my body is beyond control, waiting for the antibody to finish the rest.
Deeply I breathe the air on the bleak side corrosively running through my vein. Silence stops digging. Immunity leeches blood. As the night sinks deeper, the tears river still. The tears seize the steering wheel: divert or hold fast, toward the drift of life.
I decided to attend the seminar which Doctor Amay suggested me, the World Lupus Day Seminar. It was held in May 26th 2006. I forced myself to come for the sake of my health, to search for weakness points my eternal enemy would have. There are still roads not taken, Sinta. They are waiting for you discover, whispered the silence to my ear.
The lupus seminar was organized by Pharmacy students of Institut Teknologi Bandung at West Hall of the campus. The sky was shining brightly as I moved my feet pass a main door intercepted by two reception desks. My mind kept telling my feet to walk to the main hall. I saw physicians gluing themselves behind each other’s reception desk, creating one solid line. There are rheumatologist, optometrist, dermatologist, and hematologist. It was clear that the doctors were invited as speakers in the seminar. Before the seminar began, the doctors held free-charged consultations for attenders which by no surprise were mostly lupus patients.
I took this opportunity to my advantage. It was one of rare occasions to consult with professional doctors without getting charged a fortune. Including the ticket, the seminar only cost five thousands rupiah. Just consider the reception desks as free health consultation with certified doctors. Each stand provided enough space for patient to consult his/her medical worries. My eyes were caught in a view of reception desk which its doctor was consultant of joint and arthritis. I learned the doctor sitting behind the desk was a rheumatologist as I studied the term printed below his name.

I am a keen worker and diligent learner. I am productive in writing and scrupulous in reading texts, mainly narrative and argumentative ones. I have a considerate amount of experience in writing academic and argumentative essay, since most of my final assignments in my major deals with writing essay, so that there is no doubt I am fully trained to translate in such field. I can work individually under pressure and tight deadline or cooperatively under certain circumstances in a team. I always count every piece of experience to shape a better me in future.
