Experience

GOOD EXPERIENCE

When I first entered the world of college and become a college student I feel that my world was only after I had previously sat dibangku elementary, junior high, and, in high school. Now I was growing up and it was time I was standing alone and reaching their highest citaku for all who have given everything my parents were not in vain, I'll be studying in earnest for the sake of seeing my parents are proud to have a child who intelligent and have a high science.

i'm very proud to have both parents and has a brother and sister who always encouraged me, I will give the best for their family proud of me for having the determination to be the best of the good.

And while the introduction of a new student I have many friends all welcome when they met me and they were all good to me, after almost 1 year has passed I'm very pleased and proud to have good friends and smart. It was not want to part with their very good and very close to me, but in fact at the time of semester 2 we all separated and put into different classes. I was very sad when the later had to part with my best friends.

It's beautiful times of college to get a lot of experience and a good lesson I had to take, hopefully college 4 years was worth it to me because I just want to keep learning and learning for science that I can be useful for my future later.
