Personal Experience
"Essay Contest"
Friday, November 16th 2018
At that time, after tidying up the house. I
feel bored with this life, then I open the cellphone, open social media ie
Instagram. I see in the National Competition info page. Then I follow and
register. This race is at the national level throughout Indonesia from Sabang
to Merauke. Participants are limited to 1500 people throughout Indonesia. This
competition takes the form of an essay competition with the theme
"Indonesian peace".
After the list, I made an essay with the
theme above plus a video of peace and continued to be sent to the email and
Instagram printed on the Instagram page. After that I waited a few days,
because the committee was selecting essay works. Day 5 after sending the work,
suddenly someone entered me into the WhatsApp group. Apparently when I saw
there were 100 people in the group. I tried asking the admin in the group, it
turns out I have entered the selection essay writing competition.
This heart felt very happy because of the
1500 people Alhamdulillah I was included in the selection as a representative /
ambassador from Cianjur district. Then I was interviewed by the race committee.
Given several questions about peace. Alhamdulillah, I can answer a number of
questions from the committee.
And in the end the 100 people were given
pocket money and stayed at a 5-star hotel in the Jakarta Tugu Tani Center for
five days. And in time I met with Ir. H. Jokowi Widodo (Indonesian president),
at the Bogor palace building, because on the agenda there was an agenda to meet
with him, and incidentally one of the event organizers was presidential staff.
Then we took pictures together and shook hands with him.
That is my experience, which at the time
was saturated and then opened the social media and I followed the National
Essay race, Alhamdulillah was chosen. Then this feeling becomes very happy,
becomes more excited about living this life. And more confident again. That is the
benefit of social media. For you social media users to make the most of your
social media.
