Abstrak

Penelitian ini bertujuan memahami dunia kehidupan (lifeworld) mahasiswa STP St. Petrus Keuskupan Atambua sebagaimana direfleksikan melalui pengalaman menulis buku harian di era liquid modernity. Penelitian menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan metode fenomenologi interpretatif berdasarkan perspektif Alfred Schutz dan konsep liquid modernity dari Zygmunt Bauman. Subjek penelitian terdiri atas 14 mahasiswa aktif yang dipilih secara purposive berdasarkan kebiasaan menulis refleksi pribadi. Data dikumpulkan melalui wawancara mendalam semi-terstruktur dan dianalisis secara fenomenologis-hermeneutik melalui reduksi fenomenologis, identifikasi tema, interpretasi makna dan refleksi teologis. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa kehidupan mahasiswa tidak hanya dihayati sebagai proses akademik, tetapi juga sebagai pengalaman eksistensial yang ditandai oleh kelelahan fisik dan emosional, kecemasan masa depan, tekanan sosial, distraksi media digital dan pergulatan identitas diri. Buku harian dimaknai sebagai ruang refleksi eksistensial yang membantu mahasiswa mengelola emosi, memahami diri dan menemukan makna hidup. Penelitian ini juga menemukan bahwa relasi keluarga, solidaritas komunitas asrama dan spiritualitas keseharian menjadi sumber ketahanan batin mahasiswa dalam menghadapi tekanan kehidupan modern yang cair dan tidak stabil.
