Cerita #1; There are something they do not know.
âKenapa kamu masuk Polman?â
That was the first question that made me think for awhile since i chose this school on my own. The motives? idk.
I was so eager to pursue art, but in the middle i got distracted and chose engineering instead. My grade was not the best but it was not bad, and it seems that i had to take the engineering in order to get my grade as handy as possible. I was aiming for something i was not sure.
I was thinking of taking Geology Engineering or Material Science. But my mother never really agreed for choosing Geology, her major, as my major. She said the field work was already giving her a hard time and did not want her children felt the same way. In short, i was on the right track with Material Science.
Enrolling in University was hard as i thought it would be and i was holding on a backup plan, enroll to Polytechnic instead. I did not do my paper test well to go to Uni i was aiming, ITB. Deep down in my heart, i already knew that i was never meant to go to Uni. Gratefully, my high school grades were good enough to make me go to the Polytechnic.
I was taking the Precision Tools Design, and did not take any second choice major. It was either âIâm in that majorâ or âI wonât go at allâ, even âtake itâ or âleave itâ. And again, gratefully they took me in.
I never told my parents that i enrolled to Polytechnic. Literally none information until i got my first announcement to go to the physical-health test, and that was when i told my mom. The next few weeks i got a news that i was one of the lucky students that they accepted.Â
My father, who never had a good terms with me, got angry because i chose the Polytechnic rather enrolled to Uni. He said bad things, some word that other parents would not say to their children. I was pretty pissed off, like hell. But who cared? I still went to this major.
The next question that made my heart went shrinking was:
âApakah orang tuamu mendukung kamu kuliah disini?â
âYa, mereka mendukung saya sepenuhnya.â
While in fact, i was in fight with my father and he did not want to give any money for my first tuition. He said worst things about me that even were not relevant to the case. He just blew things off really bad until my patience worn out.
What if i answered it with the truth? Would they accept me in any way?
Because there are things they do not know, and i am glad that i said that.
