"Never underestimate your own potential."

That words hit me. I'm silent for a second, then look back what I've gotten.

I never confident with myself. From my body, face, potential, and skills. It's still my biggest problem till now.

I know I have light skin (Indonesian skin tone standart). But, I was unhappy with my front teeth, lips, and nose. Now, I'm trying to accept what God gave me. I should be grateful because God gave me all the parts of human body with normal condition.

I also don't confident with my intelligence although I have some achievements.

1. When I was in grade 11 and 12, I always be a valedictorian.
2. Then I accepted in IAIN Sunan Ampel via SBMPTN. I had to fight with about 500 students all over Indonesia.
3. I tried again to enter UNS, a university that I really wanted back then. They accepted me via UMB-PTN in History major.
4. I got an offer as a Secretary for HIMATERNAL before a year being an IR student.
5. I choosen as Chief of HIMATERNAL. Imho I couldn't be a good leader at that time.
6. I got PPA Scholarship.
7. I accepted in 2 NGOs' program as delegation. Friendship From Indonesia and Studec. FFI without test and any selection process. But Studec was through test and selection process.
8. I also was in the Waiting List of Future Leader Summit meanwhile most of my friends didn't succeed at all.
