Yeah. Tadi pagi Prototype Design Contest yang disponsori oleh Autodesk telah terselenggara dengan baik tanpa hambatan yang berarti. Perahu pengangkut sampah yang telah karatan, telah kami poles selama kurang lebih 2 minggu. Setelah mengalami perbaikan, penambahan bodi, serta pengecatan di sana sini, perahu ini telah siap untuk dilombakan. And, this is our boat eventually.

Yah, walaupun perahu kami bukan pemenangnya, tapi setidaknya kami telah berusaha. Dan kami merasa senang telah dapat berpartisipasi di lomba ini. The winners deserve the win because of their effort. Selamat ya kepada para pemenang. Terimakasih juga kepada seluruh anggota panitia yang menyiapkan segala persiapan dan perlengkapan lomba dengan baik. Thanks all!
… has happened in Indonesia. >,<
