A Clear Morning Sky to Jakarta


After several days of continuous rain in Semarang, the morning of November 29, 2024, finally greeted us with clear skies. The air was cool as I headed to the airport for my 07:00 AM flight to Jakarta, a nice little break before diving into my busy schedule in the capital.

As the plane took off, I couldn't help but glance out the window. The sky was absolutely clear, with soft blue gradients meeting wisps of white clouds. Below, the ocean stretched out, calm and vast, reflecting the sky above like a giant mirror. Here and there, small islands popped up from the water, like green dots breaking up the endless sea of deep blue.

The morning light was warm, yet not blinding, and from above, I could spot little boats moving slowly across the water, as if they too were savoring the peaceful start to the day. After days of rain, this clear sky felt like the perfect way to begin a flight—simple, serene, and refreshing.

Dulce et Utile: A Quiet Reflection on Our Mustard Yellow Attire

Dulce et Utile: A Quiet Reflection on Our Mustard Yellow Attire In our English Literature program at Unimus , we have a cherished piece of attire—not an official uniform, but a garment reserved for special moments. Its warm mustard yellow hue and the inscription “Dulce et Utile” serve as a gentle reminder: life, like literature, should be both sweet and useful. Each time we wear this outfit, it invites us to pause and reflect. It’s a subtle prompt to blend beauty with purpose in all we do—a quiet nudge to appreciate the simple, yet profound, moments of our shared journey. Do you have a symbol or word that helps you reconnect with what truly matters? 

What is English literature?

A lot of people starting to learn English literature often ask how extensive English literature is. It is not something not useful to ask about it because there have been various answers as well as different opinions about it.  We have to admit that most of common people knowing nothing about literature believe that English literature is literature written and/or published in the UK and US. Meanwhile, many other people consider it as any literary work written in English language. It makes sense but is not a totally accurate perception.  First off, English literature MUST BE WRITTEN in English language. The language is a key to defining English literature.
