Sasynchronize is an exhilarating event assembled by the batch 2023 of the English Literature Study Program with the aim of strengthening the connection with the batch of 2024. It was held within a span of two days, from the 23rd to the 24th of February 2025. Inspired by My Little Pony, this year’s theme highlights the magic of synchronizing through friendship. During the first day, freshmen formed a momentous fellowship with their seniors via a special talent show, as well as by playing challenging games in a treasure hunt.
After the official start of Sasynchronize had been marked, the day began with talent show performances. Freshmen were put into certain groups randomly, alongside their seniors as Friendship Guardians. Various performances were carried out, with every single group coming up with their unique style to brighten up Soegondo’s 7th-floor auditorium.
The treasure hunt was the second major segment of the event. Each group was given a clue card that described a senior with whom they were supposed to take a picture as a token to get to a post. These posts were spread throughout the Soegondo building, each containing a game that rewarded the groups with envelopes containing a clue card and a possible letter for the word puzzle, the result of this segment. The games really brought out the group spirit since they require tight-knit teamwork and energy to voice out their group jingles. In other news, the tagline made up from the word puzzle was the cherry on top for this event. With it being “Every Group Holds A Magic Spark Among Their Heart,” it firmly recapitulates the very soul of Sasynchronize 2025.
Sasynchronize 2025 successfully captured the essence of unity and friendship, bringing freshmen and seniors together through creativity and teamwork. From the spectacular talent show performances to the exhilarating treasure hunt, every activity fostered a sense of bonding and collaboration.
On the following day, both batch 2023 and 2024 of the English Literature Study Program are back in their class again. However, their day did not end just yet. After their class was finished, they marched to the Soegondo’s 7th-floor auditorium to attend the second day of Sasynchronize 2025.
Contrary to the first day of Sasynchronize 2025, which was an informal event and had a cheerful vibe, the second day of Sasynchronize is a more serious event because the lecturers also joined this event as speakers. The lecturers who joined the second day of Sasynchronize 2025 are Hasyim Kurniawan, S.S., M.App.Ling., Alvanita, S.S., M.Ed., and also Adiba Qonita Zahroh, S.S, M.Litt.
The second day of Sasynchronize 2025 begins with a performance from Vari and Lugas, members of Kombantrin. Afterwards, the lecturers explained the agenda of the English Literature Study Program for this year. The students listened respectfully as the lecturers gave their explanation, proven by how active the discussion session was. After the main event, Sasynchronize 2025 was finally closed by the excellent performance from Icety.
As the two-day journey came to an end, Sasynchronize not only fulfilled its goal of synchronizing the students but also reinforced collective teamwork based on a sense of togetherness that will continue to shine throughout their academic journey.
