Muhammad Kalvi Tadjoedin

My name is Muhammad Kalfi Tadjoedin. I was born and raised in Indonesia’s capital city, Jakarta. I grew up an only child who lived in the streets of Menteng Jakarta Pusat since I was a young boy and lived there with my beloved family.

Growing up in Indonesia for the most part of my life has been some what a hell of a ride. Many stories from my years before kindergarden through highschool right now that is fill with precious memories that will remain forever in my heart, like the time I have my first crush on a girl name Tisa in kindergarden!

One of my best year was maybe 2011 when I won the O2SN (Olimpiade Olahraga Siswa Nasional) and blessed to be a part of the Jakarta state team and making history for being the first Jakarta state team to win the O2SN championship. The next year, 2012. I won my first trophy with my basketball club IM (Indonesia Muda) winning the State championship and got the change to represent the Jakarta state team in the KEJURNAS (Kejuaraan Nasional) event at bali and it is regard as one of the biggest basketball championship in Indonesia. And thank god we won it that year!

2013. maybe I can say that 2013 was my down year, I was hit with an ACL (Anterior Cruciet Ligament) injury that kept me out from basketball for almost a year. It was very painful for me psycologicly because I have to do therapy almost everyday to revive my muscles, I can only sat on the bench whenever my team or my school plays, and the most painful part was seeing my team losing on the Nasional  championship game against East Java and there’s nothing I can do about it.

Motivation was the key for me to get back up and try to comeback playing basketball ASAP and Alhamdulilah eventhough my recovery takes a long time but it is damn worthed.

I can say that 2014 is my comeback year the year where I turn the cards around and forget the bad memories of 2013. Jakarta team went strong and went on a mission to beat East Java, we succeeded and became champions again beating them in the final at there home crowd in Surabaya. It was fantastic feeling and and I’m greatful of making J-City proud again. And in that year I was so pumped of the event that i participate such as Skylite (being the cast as Benjamin), Lalinju (being a part of OSIS Batrawala Dargasatya as the Ketua Bidang ll).

And I hope there are still many more stories awaits in the future.
