Hi readers :). 

It is been a long time that i am not continuing this story while i am in busy mode (I have final oral examination, so i must study hard, LOL). Anyway, like usual, if you still not read the previous part, you can read it by click here (part 4). Thanks for reading!

After a long culinary journey, i and my friend continue to go to UPH (Universitas Pelita Harapan). FYI, i never go there before and i am very amazed (really) because the rumors about this campus is true actually.

UPH is a campus that famous with its facilities that support the student and the environment. It is been one of the top rated campus with complete facility. They have around 6 - 8 sky building, almost complete sport facilities (swimming pool olympic size, football court, basketball court, jogging track, many more), and a nice and green enviroment that designed in the middle of the campus.


We are going to UPH through Times Book Store that located in the Karawaci Main Street. Times Book Store is the book store that located in front of  UPH. It has a Starbuck Cofee inside and the Library so UPH's student can have cozy and relax study there. After we pass Times Book Store, we are going to one of Twin Building of UPH.

1 of the twin building is for the Rector and Lecturers and the other is for Library, Canteen and The Famous UPH Grand Chapel (I forgot what again inside it since it's too much information for me, sorry:P ). Inside this, i can see that the facility is built with really high valuable material in UPH. Unfortunately i cannot go inside the Library or Grand Chapel so i don't know what is inside it. From there, i can also see outside view from the Grand Chapel floor. So beautiful :)




From twin building, we are going through the UPH middle courtyard where student can enjoy the green and natural enviroment from UPH. This feeling is created because of many Trees and Grass planted around UPH. There is also a unique regulation for the students to not stepping by the Grass or they will be Dropped Out from Campus! ( Seriously strict :O ) For myself, it is also surprisingly that there is a regulation like that in UPH. That's why some student says (Just a joke) that Grass has Higher Pride than the Student of UPH, LOL :D :D

UPH also known as a Christian based Campus that's why we can see a lot of Holy Bible verse being written in the building wall or stone. For myself, the verse really tell the student to depend on Lord and not their strength since we are human with limited power. This makes UPH known also to adapt the Holistic Education.

Then we can see the Basketball Court, Gym and Swimming Pool located nearby each other. From there i have been invited to see the Building (I forgot the name of the Building) for Social Faculty like Economy, Management, Public Relation, International Relationship and so on. It is also a tall building built with many classes for every floor. Every floor is already dedicated for certain major and there is a Wall Magazine that post news and the Organization Members of that Major. I think it is so unique and nice like in Highschool :). Because it is is closed, i can only see the classroom from outside (Lucky the classroom's door is made by glass)

Finish from the building we go through the Football Court where there are some students still playing football. It is so big, i think it is the Olympic size of Football court (CMIIW :D). Around the football court, there is jogging track also and a building to watch the game when any. There is a verse from the Holy Bible attached in the building outside, this supports UPH as an Holistic Campus also. We saw also some people enjoy the view, taking seat there, relax and took pictures there (I think they are outsider, not the student of UPH). It is nice!


Finally since we have a long tour of journey (It is almost evening already), we get hungry already so we fasten this tour up to search dinner. We go building in the middle of the UPH courtyard. The building contain hotel rooms and restaurants that runs by Hospitality students. This building often used for the Hospitality student to practice but for people that wants to stay in the Hotel rooms, it is also permitted.
