Studying in Sepuluh Nopember Institute of Technology (ITS) Surabaya - Indonesia
Being a university student gave many changes especially to my personality and character. Before I became a new college student, I never had any thought that campus life and school life were completely different. In junior high school, we were always informed about anything in relation to our study. For example the schedule of study, important information about examination, etc by our teacher. But in the university, we had to find it out by our selves. All of those were available in the board in front of administration office. According to my senior, if you don't want to be a left person, always read the information in the board.

The big change was I started to go home in the midnight or even in the morning. In the junior high school, I never went home so late.

I enjoy my time in college and work. While in college, I got new insights that I never had before. I studied and knew many things about environmental pollution the management. Honestly, I didn't have any knowledge about engineering before in my senior high school. But, I could adapt good enough with the subjects given. One thing that I like from my last study, I should make many big homework according to the subject. For example; I should make a planning about waste water treatment, water drinking treatment, solid waste management, etc. Even in the beginning was not easy, but in the end I knew how to make the planning in the reality. It's a very valuable lesson to be learned. Besides, I also followed university student's organization and was active in several campus activities.

To enrich my knowledge, in 2002 - 2005, I attended a variety of course trainings and national seminars (see: curriculum vitae). Conducting working while studying gave benefits for me. I met many people who come from a variety cities, background studies, and characters. I was challenged to think actively, critically, independent and broad. I had many experiences from my studying and working. For example, to organize, work together in teams or groups, responsible for activities conducted, argue and defend arguments, behave and act in different situations, and leadership.

March 2006, after I executed project and seminar project, I passed my study in environmental engineering. I earned a title of Bachelor of Engineering (S.T.) with satisfying predicate (see: curriculum vitae).
