Dream, Believe and Make It Happen with Agnez Monica @atamerica

On the first week of May I got an email from U.S Embassy Jakarta. They sent me an invitation to go to an event at @atamerica Pacific Place Mall in Jakarta. The event called “Dream, Believe and Make It Happen.” It remains me of one of talented and famous singer in Indonesia, Agnez Monica’s quote. I have no idea that this event is gonna be all about Agnez Monica’s experiences until I got her write something on her twitter about this event. No wonder the event called “Dream, Believe and Make It Happen.” So I reply her tweet. I said “ Hey Agnez Mr. Arend Z stole your quotes for his event at @atamerica. And here’s what she replied me : 

So I came to this event at @atamerica. I was totally late but lucky me I came right at the time Mr. Arend about to started. It begun with Mr. Ambassador Scott Marciel gave his speech in front of us.

After that my senior from AFS-YES program Kak Aline and ka Ayumi gave a presentation about their experiences in the USA during their exchange year with AFS-YES program. It’s about 300 people came to this event. 

After that Agnez Monica came to the front and started by yelling "Hello everybody here!!” . She said again “What? I can't listen your voice. Hello everybody??”.

Here’s the summary and quotes from what she shared to us at Dream, Believe and Make It Happen at @atamerica :

"Thinking that my life is perfect, huh? My life is not perfect! I do have problem like you. If you have problem, you have to thankful for that... I am not born strong, like you. I also cry”

"There was someone message me on twitter like this, 'the people is not lucky as you'. What? It is not about luck! Everyone has talent. It grows from very small seeds. So, you have to be ready for that... Success is the meet of opportunity and readiness”

"Never stop to dream. Does it a matter to have a dream? Noo....Changes in this world are made controversially. Well, people call your dream weird? Ya! Cause people don't like change! They live and love comfort zone. Any type of change about to make out of comfort. Then, convince your self about your dream, believe, and make it happen. You have to work real hard, consistant, and smart. You know, even stranger try to make you give up. You have to survive”

"The biggest of yourself is the biggest power of the world”

So the main point is she also an ordinary person like us. What makes her different is her spirit to get her dreams and her faith to lean on God. There is no such thing as luck it is all about working hard to get our dream come true. Everything started from a dream. We also have to believe in ourself. Noone can believe it but us. There also will be a lot of haters that might bring you down. Keep on moving let haters hate and us win. To make it happen we need skill we need to work hard we need everything.

At the end of the program there were 3 lucky student had been choosen to asked question. Agnez Monica answered it all, it also funny because she was teased on of the student, a young lucky one that seemed so nervous be close to her.

It was such an AMAZING event with Agnez Monica. She is an inspiration. She is not only an expert in singing and dancing by got a LOT of awards from all over the world but she is also smart and she just proved it in front of us today. Thanks you so much sweet heart !! Love.
