Humanistic Studies
Humanistic studies are a new subject to me in this third semester. Many imaginations in my mind about what will I learn on this subject. For example, introduce and study different ways of others life or tell in detail how we should behave as a human beings and living creatures. The lecture gave me a question about my expectations for this subject. I was thinking more and deeply about it.
Bhinneka Tunggal Ika is the principle of Indonesian people. That means different but still one. These words appear due to the diversity of Indonesian. Multicultural is a breath of Indonesian. Differences of religion, ethnicity, race and customs are a real part of my life. Life always besides differences and nationalism make it become one.
Based on these differences can I expect that Humanistic Studies will clarify how to live peacefully with differences? I just remember, do not avoid the differences that exist and still keep my own identity.
Another important thing is that the dispute also occurs from similar community in people in a single equation not differential community only. As a future English teacher candidate, how can I relate between English and Humanistic Studies. I was thinking about this question.
I am proud being Indonesian. Let me introduce myself, I am Sundanese girl. Even I proud more because I have many friends with different backgrounds. In fact, I am not only friend of Indonesian but also some people from other countries.
Humanistic Studies remembered me that God created human in order to know each other. Through Humanistic Studies, I want to know the real situation from the real resource person. It will be more logical and reliable.
These differences make life more meaningful. When we have something, we are not only enjoying it by our self, but share it with others. How wonderful a difference is. However, my great hopes on Humanistic Studies are introduction of unique culture in detail and know the opinion of others who differ with me about me.
The last but not least, I want to know why do people classify others people by class stages or caste. I also want to know more is there any advantages of the classification of human groups, such as the upper, middle and lower classes. I am very sad for this classification. So, a true humanity of human being is still questionable. I hope from this subject I can get the answer and apply it in the real world.

Hmmm, so you are proud to be Indonesian, huh?:D so am I. But how can you deal with the real condition. does it work if it is only by saying? because your reflection tells that we can avoid the differences. so only by saying with doing nothing will work? If yes, tell me the reason why?
