Mid-Semester Score




On Monday, I missed Structure class and heard news that Mr. Johanes made students correct our Structure midterm test. When I heard that news, I was worried how my score will be. Actually, Astra had informed me my score before Mr. Johannes gave me back my midterm test but I didn't hear clearly what she said. Then, Mr. Johannes gave my midterm test and I looked my score in the right top corner of the paper, 83.5. It was not too bad. That's why, I was satisfied at first. Few minutes later, I felt little disappointed about the result.
"Why wasn't I able to get ninety?" I asked myself. "Ah, if I hadn't come late when structure midterm-test was held or had studied in the previous night, maybe I would have got better score."
Then, Mr. Johannes showed us our tentative mid-semester score. My score was good enough but I will not stop to achieve better score later. I have a target to get ninety or more. I hope I will be able to study in the previous night before final test.

New Activity


 


There are no new activities actually I have tried recently. Exactly, I do my old activity that I ever did when I was in elementary school.
As an added information, I ever learned piano for about ten years; however, I did not want to continue learning piano anymore when I went into senior high school. At that time, I thought to focus to my school lessons in order to enter medical faculty. Unfortunately, I could not go into the university that I wanted

In short, I entered English Department in Widya Mandala University. Recently, I begin being interested to music again. I want to learn more about piano. I regret not to spend my time well to learn music for three years. If I had kept learning piano when I was in senior high school, perhaps I would have been a senior pianist now. However, the time keeps flying on and I cannot go backward. The most important thing I have to think now is how I use my time well to do something useful that I will never regret in the future.

Since last January, I've already got more lessons about music. I learn from my brother. He can be called a senior pianist. I practice piano two or three times a week. I learn a lot of songs especially religious songs because in my church, I am asked to play keyboard for religious service.
