DORM WITHOUT CONTAINER

CHAPTER 1: ENTRANCE TEST

Dormitory is not just a place to live, but there is reflected diversity of identity that shows that residents come from various backgrounds both regions, tribes, to individual habits that are able to foster a tolerant soul and togetherness.

We turned back in the countdown of 1994, where this year we have not known hendpone, ATM, Leptop and other sophisticated items. In that year still know the correspondence (there is a regular letter to the destination can be one week, or, there are express letters all the way to the four-day destination and there are special express letters all the way to the two-day destination), telephone coins that if you want to use must take turns queuing and money is still using savings that must be withdrawn directly without ATMs, television already exists but still a little only a few cennels.

Radio became the handle of the dormitory creatures because they want to listen to music, theatrics, news or trent at that time a radio show with the title 'Definition of the Heart' where we can send various expressions of heart feelings that are directed to loved ones or sometimes used to express a conscience that may be difficult to express directly and then use the media event this radio is all the contents of the heart we can say with the hope of girl' or boy' who is the purpose of our heart sense to hear or yes... at least one of the dorm roommates just heard and then conveyed to the man' or girl' who became the goal... That too when he says it, if it does not mean in vain already what is revealed by the radio broadcaster and this will be re-ordered through attention sheets that are usually purchased directly one book and distributed to the public dormitory creatures.

It is in this situation that the story is divided.

Graduated from Secondary School (SMP) in droves to register for the School of Health Nurses in Lampung Province. In 1994, there were only 4 Health Nursing Schools equivalent to High School (SMA) and there was no D3 Nurse Academy, let alone Bachelor of Nursing S1.

This makes the four Health Nursing Schools a goal to achieve as much as an ideal towards the future. Bandar Lampung School of Health Nurses, Metro School of Health Nurses, Kotabumi School of Health Nurses to three schools are government owned while one Baitul Hikmah School of Health Nurses is private.

Because at least the School of Health Nurses so that when the school entrance test exam is a contention for participants who want to apply there because there is still a bond of service or if we pass it can be sure it will be accepted as Civil Servant (PNS) for the guy' if for the girl' he will continue to Midwifery level.

I am among those who may have been less interested in previous ideals to the School of Health Nurses. Graduated from Secondary School (SMP), I immediately went on to apply to the High School of Economics (SMEA) by majoring in Finance with the hope that after completion it might take a Computer course (no leptops in that year and the University was only there University of Lampung only) and by having that expertise hope I can work in one of the private companies at least as a permanent employee.

Even three weeks I entered the High School of Economics (SMEA) suddenly I was told that the Kotabumi Health Nursing School had an application opening for 80 students.

Coincidentally I was born and live in Kotabumi but not the original person there, the mother of the minangkabau three years have been left to two parents, he said, then with my grandmother brought to the city of Palembang and grew up there and then when high school mom did it in Lampung. My father was a Minangkabau native as well but was born in Kotabumi, North Lampung. Then they were married until they finally married and stayed in Kotabumi, North Lampung. I'm the fifth of five children, if he says the youngest, first girl' Dilla Handayani, second girl' Amanda Widiani, to three boys' Ovidius, to four girls' Gebby Franika and my own five guys Ilham Alfarizi.

"Amanda, Ilham is already a High School of Economics (SMEA) why must join the list to the School of Health Nurses!" Ask Amanda at the time.

"Yes, it doesn't matter. If only received at least it could be a Health Nurse and Civil Servant again!" Answer Amanda.

"Well, are you sure you want to go in there?" Ask mama again.

"Yes, let's try it first and ask with Ilham, but the registration is not over time!" Answer Amanda.

"Yes mamah anyway whatever the good, just remember he has paid money to enter High School of Economics (SMEA) lo, do not love the money that has been paid it lo!" Ask mama again.

"If the problem will be Dilla mah who takes care of it!" Dilla replied, entering into conversation. "Usually it can still be returned, although not all!" Further.

"Yes, don't papa lo mah, his name is also trying!" My brother who is a guy' Ovi chimed in on the conversation.

"Dad already retired lo, if a lot of costs that will be incurred later may mamah not be able to finance it!" Clearly mama again.

"Udah do not have to think too far first, let Ilham try to take the test first, if we pass later we both think again!" Ovi Obviously.

"What about Gebby! Do you agree that I'll try!" Ask mamah again to my sister girl who is number four.

"Gebby mah is up to you mah, if brother Amanda, sister Dilla and brother Ovi have agreed why not try!" Gebby.

Finally all agreed for me to continue applying to the Health Nurse School without having to leave the High School of Economics (SMEA), so if not accepted I still remain in school there.

At that time the papah who accompanied applying to Kotabumi Health Nursing School, while who took care of the equipment and requirements to register were all done Amanda and Ovi. Until the test time arrived papah who was still accompanying waiting outside the Sports Building (GOR) Sukung Kelapa Tujuh, Kotabumi where it took place. For the admission of students at that time in 1994 only two classes or totaling 80 students, each class contains 40 students from the participants who took the test examination 1,547 students.

"Where can Ham answer the test questions!" Ask papah.

"God willing reward, hopefully come in!" answer me to papah even though it feels doubt only have hope of 80 students that received one of them I.

"If Inspiration is sure like that, it must be accepted!" Answer papah proudly.

"Yes pah!" I said to reply to Papah.

"When is Ham's announcement!?" Ask papah again.

"If not wrong test test write friday in front of the reward of the announcement, if it passes Monday has a health test!" Answer me explain to papah.

"That means Friday ahead of us here again!?" Ask papah.

"No reward, let's see the announcement at the Health Nurse School Dormitory at 16:00 Wib!" Obviously me. "Later the announcement of the exam number and name on the blackboard in front of the office, said the committee test exam writing earlier pah!"

"Oh, yeah. Let's go home!" Obviously papah while inviting me to walk to the parking lot where the motorbike at the beginning came to be put there.
