The reason why you could pick this school as your new path in the search of your passion and your future

 

They said:

“don’t choose the wrong path”

“you can pick on this … but, don’t regret it later.”

“Life is just once, choose wisely, don’t make thing hard for yourself.” “Everything you do to yourself will affect the future”

“living in this country is already hard enough for us, don’t let it ruin you.”

And yet, nobody really giving us the right answer of which to path to take, to choose, to pick, because nobody really knows the answer either.

Parent. Whose parent that didn’t want the best for their children at this generation? They’re working till the bones inside is sore, crack, or break. Parent’s, who is always thinking about the future of the kids their adore. parent’s, who want their kids to have the better life more than themselves but in the same time putting us with big expectation.

Did all parent like this? Nope, not ALL OF THEM. Just them who deserve to be a parent, the mature, good money saving, know to invest, and strong mentality who deserve to be a parent. And that was the other reason why I… or why they didn’t exactly let me TRY to choose the good for myself. When I do, they will find the weakness in my opinion and trying to convince me about THE OTHER WAY. The way that Better than the I choose for myself.

But that is how I “could” describe my wholesome family.

When I try to choosing my path in life, I was having this little mindset.

“if they’re thinking as a straight-line road, make the yourself a shortcut.”

“think differently, out of the box is the answer.”

“if everyone liking on this, I do not feel or think the same”.

Trying to be different, that’s what I want!

It’s what I’ve always done long time since Britney Spears released “Circus” which is the year when I was not born yet. Just how wide, vast, and expansive the inside of my head when it comes to imagining thing “Differently”?

Different, weird, odd, or freak, is what society describing the people who thinking outside the reality. we shatter and twist every single piece, shaping a new world that scientists may not necessarily understand.

Not all schools are able or willing to guide every child whose mind is as vast as the universe. Not all teacher is capable of guiding and assisting children whose thought processes are difficult to decipher. And when I choose what others would immediately choose, it became my biggest mistake. it wasn’t truly my choice.

Other schools always offer qualifications in fields that don’t interest me. They might be supportive, but that wasn’t their main focus. In the end, they would not help me grow in the place I’m actually interested in. I thought that, no more choice for me and I have to follow the ordinary path.

That was until I find this school. SMAK St. Eugenius Purwokerto. It was far from home, far from my hometown – far beyond anything I had ever imagined. And that is exactly what made me want to attend this school.

THE SCHOOL MEETS MY EXPECTATIONS

This school offers a fairly advanced level of education – featuring Wi-fi and organized laptop purchases for students along with computer courses for those who have never learned to use a computer.

Talents and interests will be honed and developed in such a way that students can understand the limits of their capabilities and identify the most suitable path to pursue those interests – choosing the right field of study to ensure a promising future.

When you step out of your comfort zone, you will discover something vast, as expansive as the universe itself. This experience helps open up more opportunities and fosters a more progressive mindset, driven by the need to adapt to city life after coming from a smaller town.

So, What do you think about my journey? About how I was driven and lead to a catholic school far from home? I hope from my writing you would get interested on this school and joining us finding our path to the bright future. The future that we Chose, the path that we wanted all this long and finding our destination – leading us to the happiness that we wish

All by ourself
