My Autobiography
I am who I am
I
was glad started my life in a lovely family with my father, my mother, my
grandmother, and my two siblings. My father is a successful businessman who has
a quite big building supply store. My mother, the one who always takes care of
me is a hairdresser and has her own beauty center in front of our house. My
grandmother is a strong woman. She is 72
years old now but she is still able to help my mother to do housework. I am the first child in my family and have a younger brother and a younger sister. My younger brother was born when I was two years old. When I was a child, I used to quarrel with him. We fought like cats and dogs. Sometimes when no one was around, Ryan approached me quietly and suddenly punched my back for no reason. However, he is kind and I love him because he is my brother. My younger sister is the youngest one in my family. Putri is a cute and pretty girl. She is still at junior high school now.

My childhood was very interesting
for me. When I was about 5 years old, I got my first bicycle from my father. I
was very happy but I was afraid to ride it. A week later, my mother tried to
teach me how to ride the bicycle. However, I ignored my mother, then, my mother
forced me to do it. I was crying while I was riding it. I also felt embarrassed
at that time because our neighbors laughed at me. I fell so many times. Every
morning, my mother spent her time to teach me until I could ride it. About 5
days later, I could ride my bike and I was very happy. Moreover, my father gave
me a funny bell for my bike as a gift. That was a lovely moment for me. There
is another story I have when I was a child. When I was 9 years old, my father
invited me to go fishing with him and my brother on the river near my house. He
taught me how to fish with fishing rod. It was a funny moment because when I
tried to use the fishing rod, suddenly it was off from my hand and washed away.
My father ran to catch it. Fortunately he got it and brought it back to me. He
wasn’t angry at all. Those are my childhood stories I can remember until now.
I am a student of Ganesha University
of Education majoring English Education. Before I study at the university, I
took several years to study at elementary school, junior high school, and
senior high school. In 2000, I went to Raj Yamuna Elementary School in
Denpasar. I spent 6 years there and went to SMPN 1 Sukawati in 2006. I went to
my junior high school by bicycle. I took 40 minutes and passed by a long narrow
way, rice fields, and the main street of Sukawati to get there. Three years
later, I graduated from the junior high school and continued my study to SMAN 1
Sukawati in 2009. I went to school by motorbike. I got my first motorbike when
I was at senior high school. It was Honda
Supra 125R which was given by my father. Senior high school was a wonderful
moment for me because I got a lot of experiences. I started to learn how to
manage my time. I was a coordinator of Art Development and Appreciation Sector
in student association of my senior high school. I was very busy to do my job
in the organization. It made me forget my lessons in class and always got low
marks in class. Then, I tried to manage my time by spending more time for study
and less time for the organization. I always studied hard from 9 p.m. until
midnight. As the result, I reached top 5 in my school. At senior high school, I
also got my first love. I was known as a student who’s not easy to fall in love
but there was a girl who made me fall in love. She is cute and nice girl. Ari
used to wait me at parking area after all of my lessons ended and backed home
together. However, when I graduated, she left me with no reason.
In
this life, everyone has their bad experiences. I faced the worst experience
when I was graduated from the senior high school. My mother wanted me to be a
doctor but my father forced me to be an architect. I felt really confused at
that time. Eventually, I decided to follow my mother’s suggestion. The reason
why I followed my mother’s suggestion was because I also wanted to be a doctor.
In addition, I was also good at biology and physics. Therefore, I joined SNMPTN
I (via invitation) and selected Faculty of Medicine as my choice. However, I
didn’t make it, I wasn’t received. I didn’t give up, my spirit was strong as a
stone at that time. I joined SNMPTN II (via exam) and selected Faculty of
Medicine again. Unfortunately, the announcement said that I was not received
and I failed again for the second time. I feel desperate and depressed. Some of
my friends at school already passed the SNMPTN and were received at the
university they chose. About a week later, I heard that there was an
examination to get Faculty of Medicine called PMDK examination. I enrolled myself
and ensured myself to be well-prepared for the exam. After the exam conducted,
the staff said that I passed. I was really happy because I could pass the test
and made my parents proud of me. However, he said that I had to pay 600.000.000
rupiahs for the administrations and other things. I was shocked to hear that.
My parents weren’t capable of paying for the fee. I felt really confused and
almost decided to take a break for a year. My mother said, “It is not the end
of your life, you still have tons of chances to reach your dream. Maybe this is
not your way, I’m sure there are many universities you can try. In addition,
you can’t just give up like this, you should get up! Remember what I told you
before, failures are part of success.” Those words made me get up and changed
my mind. I decided to enroll myself to Ganesha University of Education and
joined the PMJM exam. After the announcement appeared, it told that I passed
the test and was received at the university. I felt very happy even though I
couldn’t reach what my parents want. Now, I really love English.
For me, life is like a war. If you
give up, you will never get your independence. To get your dreams, you have to fight
every single challenge in your life and live your life. Failures are not the
end of this world. I have failed many times but I believe my failures will
bring me to success. That’s why I am not afraid of failures. -Hendra-
