Today was though. I have to count every credit I’ve took for 11 semester I did at Unpar. I did well, but actually I could do better. That’s what I call “close, but not close enough”.
Not only that, but a friend of mine asked me many times. “Are you sure that Mathematics is mandatory?” he asked. “Yes, I believe so. If you’re not sure just ask the coordinator.”
And so he did.
Why did he asked that question? Simple, because he didn’t took Mathematics for 11 semester even though it’s a mandatory course. Do we have a solution? Could he graduate?
The thing is, he couldn’t. He already did more than 144 credits, more than enough to graduate, but can’t. Just because a 3-credit-course called Mathematics.
That’s the real “close, but not close enough”.
I couldn’t even imagine being in his position. That was tough. If I was the one in that position, I’d gone home and cry all day. It took every effort I have just to graduate before the university drop me out.
That’s the thing about life.
Sometimes it takes patient.
Sometimes it takes hardwork.
Sometimes it takes precision.
Sometimes it takes a loooooootttt of effort.
Sometimes it hurts so damn badly.
But if you go through, if you’re not quitting, in the end it’ll be worth your while.
The thing is, it’s hard not to quit. Every obstacle that’s been thrown at you make it hard. Very very hard.
But sometimes, you just need to believe.
Believe that you could do that, even though it’ll take longer than usual.
Believe that you could go through with it, even though it’ll hurt like hell.
Believe that after everything, it’ll make your life more meaningful to you, and to others.
Believe that you could change the world.

A very special thanks to all my friends at Universitas Katolik Parahyangan: Novarine, Sendhy, Yoshi, Fanny, Ichel, Stephen, Gladys, and Willy. Without them, it’ll be a hundred times harder to graduate. Thank you for being there.
A special thanks to my best friend: Raisa, Ray, Michael, Soraya, and Evy. For being there, listening, cheering, and supporting me throughout the whoooolllleee thing. It took 5 1/2 years.
