Spooky and Funtocber in HIMSI, from Conjuring to TKH OMNIS 2021

Two months left for 2021 to finish its unfinished business. As for HIMSI 2021 Board of Management, they have a few months left before they need to step down from their position. We arrived in November, and said goodbye to October, but before we embrace the new days in November, let’s rewind a bit. October had been a bit busy for all HIMSI’s activists. From watching together event, or what we usually called nobar, to the first official welcoming party to B25, or what we know as TKH OMNIS, this is the October rewind.

HIMSI started its October by introducing the three presidential candidates for the next period. Handiko Wijaya, Radikha Freya Anjani, and Jie Adi Julius. They fought hard during the campaign. That was during the early day of October. Time flew really fast, right? New people that would lead HIMSI in the future have been selected, so what is next for HIMSI? Well of course the preparation of TKH OMNIS 2021.

The team consisted of many second year (sophomore) students (B24). M. Ardan Abdilla is the Head of Event, while Shania is the Secretary and Fiona (B22) is the Treasurer. We also have Suryo Darundio, Handiko Wijaya, M. Alif Hidayat, and Belsa Azalia. Yup, you’re right, the committee mostly consisted of the Human Resource Division staff. The preparation began in September, and went on till the end of October. No specific theme was added for TKH this year, but HIMSI has finally dumped Discord, and moved to Zoom for its TKH.

Since TKH will be conducted on October 30, it means we still have time for many interesting events, and you’re right. On October 16, FARCO, an organization under SCAC, conducted an event and they sent an invitation to HIMSI. The delegates of HIMSI were Adhitya Fajar Ramadhan and Handiko Wijaya. Not only from FARCO, but HIMSLAW also invited us to join their 9th anniversary. Wow, so many invitations in October.

Now, we have reached the last week of October, and you know what it means, Halloween! Since all the hectic schedule that HIMSI had this month, the Human Resource Division decided to celebrate this year’s Halloween pretty small. With the committee that consisted of Handiko Wijaya and Shania, the HR conducted a watching together session, Conjuring 3! The event was held on a Discord server owned by Bilal Raditya, a first year student (thanks Billy). There were approximately 15 people who attended the event, and based on a survey that was given in the attendance form, those people want to see more nobar sessions in the future!

On the next day, October 30, TKH was finally conducted. The event started at 2 PM, with Pieter Bagaskara Astadiningrat and Handiko Wijaya as the MC for the event (and with a bit of help from Adit!). TKH lasted until 4:30 PM, with the first session in order was questions from the MC (Pieter). He asked some questions regarding the first month of college to some B25. Next was the Gartic.io game. Then a break of 20 minutes for those who need to pray. After it was a main session of TKH, which was a sharing session. Handiko asked some questions regarding the importance of HIMSI, time management, and many more to the committee, so the freshmen could gain something useful.

At the end of the session, an announcement was made that HIMSI open recruitment will be held soon enough in December. People who want to be part of HIMSI should register themselves by joining the Line group that was shared by the TKH committee. If you’re a B24 who wants to join HIMSI, please ask your friends for the link to the group.

With this news, October is finally over. May November shine brighter than ever. See you at the next events people!
