universities in jakarta with the Faculty of modelling and photography. To
achieve my desire, I always try to learn in earnest. Finally, the announcement
of graduation announced. And thank God I am including one of the pupils who
successfully pass the national exam. It's become one of my stock to remain
optimistic continuing my dream to stay enrolled at universities that I dreamed
of for a long time. (orientation)

I continue to learn and prepare themselves carefully in order to welcome the test questions. Starting from les private to study groups with your friends. And finally, any test of time to arrive. I have been ready to welcome the problems with the provision that I have as well as the prayer of both my parents. Sixty minutes has passed, that means time to work on any problem has ended. While leaving the room, I try to review the matter again in the last test to my friends. And it turns out they were having a lot of difficulty, the same is the case with me. It made me into doubt. Will I qualify for selection? Or just the opposite? I don’t know.

announcement came. Accidental announcements via online, so I can see results
