Scholars Rebellion
Look at the pictures I display here.
I captured them while I was listening to the Senate’s graduation speech that extraordinary boring. Graduation’s speech? Yup!
I was graduated last week, again for the second time in two years.
This is my friend Mahd, 25. 
She’s same like me, a doctor at the moment.
She knew that she was gonna be graduated, but she didn’t wanna bother to call the beauty-shop to make a date for tying up her hair.
Sinlessly she came to the graduation with her hair waving on the air, and in her hat, her hair is definitely moist.
This is Rhien, 25, 
and she was noisy all day long, bothering all the people for borrowing hair clips.
She just made a small snail on her hair and because she didn’t use hair spray, her hair kept loosing and she had to clip it on the whole of her head.
Shan, 25, our friend, absolutely didn’t care at all about any clips.
She just came with binding her hair like a ponytail. 
End of story.
The next is Jay, 25, too.
Two years ago she was graduated at this place in cum laude status.
That was the year when she got up early, went to the beauty-parlour, made up her hair, very neatly. And this year, she didn’t give a damn at all with her hair.
Well, not like my friend Drye, 25, who was still interested to blow up her hair in the morning.
They all broke my heart.
If I knew this from the start, I wouldn’t tie up my hair on the graduation day, either.
D’ya know, if you don’t get up earlier only for going to the salon, maybe you could sleep longer.
I remember several years ago, graduation always makes the students busier than anybody else.
Much long time before, we’ve been confused to determine what kinda kebaya we’re gonna wear.
Early in the morning, even before our father’s chickens awoke up for cocking, we had sat down on the salon, tortured to tie up our hair.
And along the day, we have to sit on the whole ceremony, while the kebaya that we’ve prepared long time ago, had to be covered in black robe.
And no time to go to the rest room for just peeing, rubbing our lipstick, or even smoking.
Now the hectic days start to move on. My friends rebel and refuse to tie up their hair.
The reason is, “Why must we tie up our hair for the graduation?
The rule says that we’ve gotta wear the national dress.
If we don’t tie up our hair, then does it mean our hair isn’t patriotic?”
Coz, tie up or not tie up, the Dean would still give us the Graduation Folder.
Sorry, I mean, the graduation folder with the writing inside, “The certificate and the transcript are still in process.”
If the students are already brave to get graduated in loose hair, then it’s just the matter of time until the day is come when I’m brave to come to my magister graduation with only in a sexy silk gown that covered with toga.
I hope the day is coming soon. Amien!
