PATIENT

Everybody has the important thing in their life. Either it is about something special that can change their life like motorcycle; they can go anywhere they like and perhaps their life become easier than before because of motorcycle or about somebody who give some inspirations in their life, it probably change the way in which they think about life. It may about an event that has changed somebody’s life or unforgettable experience that it is the beginning of their success in their life. Some people assume it was a good reason to change their life better than before. For me, the important thing in my life is my mother. It was the day when I was fail in the university entrance examination and she taught me about life.

One thing that I want to show lessons from my mother is become patient. All of this began when I graduated from Islamic state senior high school of Gondanglegi. I actually did not want to continue my education life because I wanted to earn some money by myself with work but my mother always supported me that I have to continue my education. She said that knowledge is very important because if I had knowledge, money would come to me automatically. It changed my thinking about education. Then, I was so interesting become a student of university. I planned to enter state university of Malang and become an English student. I was so confident that I could pass the national university entrance examination. I studied every night and my mother always sat side of me. When the examination began, one day before I asked my mother to give me some motivations and I wanted she pray for me.

In the day of examination I tried to relax, I just believed that I could do this. I always remembered my mother’s words that a success came from us; if we work very hard we will get whatever we want. I remembered when the examination started at 7 am until 11am. The examination did in two days. The first day started with English and social sciences. I could do this absolutely but I did not know how many numbers I could not answer. It was time for mathematic and Indonesian language in the second day. I was so confuse with mathematic but I attempted to answer the test with my ability but it was the beginning of my doubt. I was afraid I could not pass it. After a month, the results are out. I had to browse the internet if wanted to know my results. Unacceptable, I was fail. I was so frustrated in that time but once again my mother gave me some supports. She taught me to become patient. She said that everybody had a second change. She gave me an advice that I had not to become a student of state university of Malang. There were other universities in my country. Thus, I tried to enter state Islamic university of Malang and I passed the test successfully. I was so thankful with my mother because she taught me everything.

    From this experience, I realize that everybody has to become patient in everything. Even though we fail, we have a second change. We just have to believe with our ability and we have to work very hard if we want to reach our dreams.
