the author


herdinda erudite rizkinya.
my name determines what i have to become.
herdinda: sister
erudite: educated
rizkinya: a godsent
i can briefly portray myself as a mirage;
both in positive and negative way.
i can be a pleasure that every people should have.
yet, i sometimes can be the heat that every people should stay away from.

in such a blank space like this, who doesnt like to talk about themselves? well, these examples of my routines probably descriptive enough to bring myself in sequence of words.
i am currently a Muslim doctor ‘in training’, studying in Padjadjaran University, was studying in 81 High School Jakarta, 109 Junior High School, and Labschool Elementary, was an exchange student for AFS Indonesia to The States and am volunteering for the above foundation. (and i certainly dont use the phrase ‘big city girl goes small town’ to describe myself). these would explain :
i prefer reading to shopping.. always
i’d rather do my-boring-routines than do something new [like going to some random places, to do some unclear random stuff]
yet, i love meeting new people, new area, new life, new adaptation. my favorite quote is “hi my name is dinda. what is your name?”
i read books, novels, any written things which talk about real life better than higly imaginary novels aka harry potter, or any kind of magic, supranatural, not-make-sense other stories.. [i hardly try to understand why people do like it]
i am a ’schedule-ly’ freak kind of person. i am literally dead without my agenda, i dont like a hurry sort of situation and am not flexible enough with my time and life.. this is the way i appreciate time and life is short, dude!
i think this on-time, on-schedule habit now grows like a mental-ill.. like, i HAVE to be on time, and i even dont tolerate myself, how spooky would that be?
probably the only reason why did i decide to become a physician is i love to see smiles, and people let me know that i make them happy [simply by giving me a smile]
this is a life [it might change], no one could predict what is ‘the next’.. that is why God create the word FAITH and what implies from it..
do you understand who am i now? i do not.

2018. fallen in love so i started to write again

i am a mother of one, trying to endure pain as obstetrics and gynecologist resident hoping that Allah give little mercy so i can survive. the only female obsgyn resident from 6 in my batch, so i must be stronger. recently experienced sparkles that worth to write as reminder that God have sent me many littlehappiness that i might forget to acknowledge. i write those down so i can remember, so i can keep going.
