The second semester of college has ended.  Although the final score was not as good as my expectation but I still thank God anyway. At the end, the most important thing is not about the final score, but the lesson I’ve got behind – the lesson I’ll never get in any courses.

Honestly, I feel 2nd semester was harder than the previous semester. There are many more assignments and tests in various ways. I also had to adapt with new lecturers and new environment in every classes. I almost never passed a day without doing assignment or studying. Some seniors said “Welcome to the real university life”. Time and creativity became so important here. But I shouldn’t care for what people said. No matter how hard it would be, I would face it.

When I was in the way, I really felt the struggle. Surely tough. Seems like you easily can give up on the situation or can be dropped out. I tried so hard. Gratefully, half of second semester could be passed well. I got good score overall in my exam. I became more confident to get a good final score at the end. But suddenly everything was changed. As Indonesian proverb said “Setitik nila rusak susu sebelanga." I obtained a very low score on my mass communication final exam. The result really lowers my masscom final score on transcript and more than that, lowers my whole second semester score.

I have tried my best. That’s all the gift from God. If I don’t get a very high score, maybe God wants me to see things from the other side.

By now I am not trying to change the score anymore. The score was just what people can see, but I’ve learned more than that. I learned to see things objectively, not only from my side. I learned to work with people who are not match with me. I learned to admit my fault. I learned to not obtrude. Those lessons are invisible but so valuable.

I hope the next semester will be better. Fight!! ;)
