✨ About Me ✨
Hi! My name is Celline. I'm a grad student at Harvard University :) I'm originally from Indonesia 🇮🇩 I'm also a mother of one very lovely (and active) one-year-old, you can see her cuteness constantly in my Insta stories. I love sharing about my experience balancing studies and family, being an international student at Harvard, and my tips on getting into universities in the US (I was accepted at Columbia and Johns Hopkins as well, but I chose Harvard).

Hi! Anything you have time to show, but I actually wanted to know your story how you became a doctor and why? And why you and your husband chose Harvard? And do you plan to stay and practice in USA as a doctor after Harvard? Etc etc maybe what they call a Q & A vlog…take care and thanks!

[@14.gitalokatrirahayu97]

Kak Celine anak orang kaya ya

[@Zhafiraiha]

Ugh so inspiring 🥹

[@ItzIzaan8]

[@chefzakirhasan299]

[@meeiimeeyy21]

Gonna be a lifetime precious story for Alma in the future. Even though it seems so hard, I know that this is just temporary. Keep shining Ka Celline and fams, better days will come 🎉❤

[@nobodyinnowhere444]

I don't know how to express my feeling with my poor English. As a Turkish high school student who is aspiring to become a doctor and have a public health and microbiology degree, you are inspiring me!!!! Ah, i hope you can achieve all you goals and wishes❤ Glad to see you. Greetings from Türkiye❤

[@leapanne1769]

I just found your channel, because I thought that it was impressive how you're a mom and a Harvard student at the same time. As I watched, I was shocked to see two (Zhafira and Tricia) of my role models in the same vlog! Now, I have three!

[@CellineWijaya]

Thank you! Zhafira and Tricia are one of my closest friends here at Harvard. I'm so grateful that by going here, I got to meet and get to know them 🥺 And Tricia is the best! She inspires me too✨

[@serotoninsomnia3783]

Aku while nonton ini kaya: kurang bersyukur bgt gw. Gw lpdp awardee DN di bandung, kampus deket sm kosan, makanan dimana2 deket, gw masih sendiri jd gaada tanggung jawab apa2 selain diri gw, cuaca disini baik, gw ga perlu jalan sejauh itu dan nerjang salju buat ngampus. Tp gw masih suka ngeluhin ini itu. Masih suka bnyak protes ini itu sma jalan Tuhan. Masih suka nyalahin ini itu. Dan masih bnyak hal2 yg gw keluhin😢 But after nonton ini ak mau bilng Thanks k Celine. Makasi udah nyadarin aku. U r so inspiring❤

[@ellie7103]

Had no idea that you can still acquire student housing with a family. One year down in my education and Harvard has always been my dream. Decided to finally give college a try after over a decade from graduating high school. Best of luck in your educational journey. Much love from LA!

[@CellineWijaya]

Harvard has a lot of housing options! They have several apartments and houses too for students, faculty, and staff, and a lot of them are child friendly and even has a childcare center integrated in the complex! And yayy, best of luck for your educational endeavours ☺✨

Hello Celline and Doc Tricia (Robredo) 🌸👋🏻💕 watching from 🇵🇭

[@cindyt6909]

So you sleep at 2am and wake up at 7am every day?? How do u manage to focus on schoolwork when you don't get enough sleep? Also, what happens when your friend can't babysit in between your class?

[@midkort]

This is a single day. Everyday will not be the same. There are probably days when she sleeps at 11 pm, days when they pay a babysitter, etc.
