My Experience at PNUP

Introducing my name is Lulu Yulianti Pangestu, I will share a little of my experience

during semester 1 in PNUP. Before I entered PNUP I went to 1 PALU VOCATIONAL
SCHOOL, then I chose to enter PNUP because in PNUP there was a study program that was
exactly the same as what I took while in Vocational High School, namely computer and network
engineering. I entered PNUP through an independent route because when I followed the writing
path I had no chance to graduate.

I am grateful to be able to enter lectures at PNUP in 2018 yesterday. Like most new
students I am still shy, scared, and have to adapt to new environments, new friends from
different cultures, new learning systems. When entering the first lecture many lecturers were not
active. Well, that's where empty hours are used to adapt to friends. When entering the second
week of the lecture the lecturer has begun to be active and give a lecture contract after his course.
But when I entered the lecture I admitted to being late entering the class from the appointed hour
at 07.30. After the courses began intensively I experienced a little problem with the frequency of
my delays, there was a lecturer who said that I was well-known by the lecturer group, so I made
sure by asking some lecturers "is there something that is a problem with me? they replied that
"there was no problem with me, there was only one lecturer complaining to the other lecturers
because of the frequency of my delay" well from that I began to introspect myself and get rid of
my habits. I also explained that my reason for being late was why and the lecturer gave me a
little tolerance. And also the other problem is the theory course, I find it hard to understand if the
course theory is different from the practice, but I think that this is still the first semester so all the
subjects are just basic and the introduction can all be learned if I want to be serious. when there
is a course that I myself don't understand but I am not worried that my friends around me are
ready to help whatever difficulties I am facing and they teach me so that I can finally and
understand.

Seconds before the midterm exam at the beginning of the first semester is very stressful
because the first time the exam on the lecture bench is certainly very different compared to when
in school. Many fears that I worry about later, I am reminded of the terms of the uts explained
by one of the lecturers that the weight of the scores in the midterm is very large and affects
the GPA later. If my score in the midterm can be D, then it is difficult for me to get a GPA above
3.00. I don't want to disappoint my parents for the umpteenth time they have enough to bear the
feeling of disappointment that I instilled for them. I hope that there will be a lot more in this
lecture than to make my parents happy, I also want to improve myself so that I become more
loving than before so that everyone can see that I am also capable and can become successful
later. Then I put together a plan and strategy for what I should do so that the midterm test scores
will be at least B / C. After everything passed, the lecturers took out one value, see, I was very
worried about the value that I would get later, while I grouped whatsapp my friends gave info
about the value they got, and finally after all the values came out. Dooorrr ... the value is quite
satisfying hehehe.
 And a lot of the experiences that I have felt in this semester I have never stopped to thank
GOD Almighty for giving me fluency, ease in going through all this. I think in the first semester
yesterday, I was not maximal, but I will correct my mistakes in the second semester, God
willing, no matter how heavy the journey of our lives, but there are facilities that we can achieve,
but before we reach it we have difficulties teaching that trying it is beautiful. So many stories of
my experience for one semester yesterday if there is something that is not pleasing to you, please
forgive. So much
