School learning nowadays has become very boring, no lies, bear with every student in all level of studying. However, there are many differences in studying in university and school. Students are expected to be more responsible in university rather than in school. Moreover, after we have already graduated from college. Workplace needs employers who work hard and have big responsibility for their job. Not only students do have to work hard but also an employee. Either students or college students must realize that hard work is all that needed in every aspect of life. Even when we are not in school or campus anymore, even when we are on holidays or leisure times. Hard work is not a manner, it is supposed to be a habit, a lifestyle. How we face people, respond to their interaction should be appropriately respectful, and that is what we learn in both high school and college life.

As i decided to learn in English Department of Widya Mandala University, like it or not, i am taught every day how to be a good qualified teacher. As what i did on freshman year, i taught some elementary students after college and i thought that i would probably want to teach elementary til junior high only because that's the year where i can not only teach them academically but also spiritually and mentally as a godly children of Christ. That is what my former teachers taught me when i was at that age. Academic can't be prioritized if our relationship with God is not healthy. Therefore, a personal intimate relationship with our Creator must be continuous for we all know that wisdom comes when we fear God the most.
