When you was listening a person talking about university
abroad, how was your imagination walks? Are you imagining yourself as a scholar
there? Or, you have been selected as a student there? Was your feeling fly to
the paramount of this Milky Way? If you answer is yes, let us discuss together
about it deeply.
Studying overseas or abroad could be defined that we are
studying outside our home country. For example, you are Indonesian, and then
you are studying at United States of America. We can say that you are studying
abroad. So, what are the advantages that we can get by leaving our beloved
country to educate ourselves?
First, studying abroad can gives us the latest experience
that rarely happens at our own country. It will be clearer if you are studying
in a country that has the extremely different custom with your value. Of course
it will be different for you that originally come from a religious-based
country who learn at secular country, and vice versa. By getting that imperial
experience, you can open your paradigm wider about our world. We can analyze
that human in this world isn’t same, but we are having our special characters.
From that new ideology, we can celebrate the people diversity as a gift given
by God the Almighty. Is it nice?
Next, we can learn the strategic way that another country
do to brings their welfare. If we learn only in our country, what can we get
about other’s path to success? It would be better for us to learn the ‘secret
recipe’ directly from the owner. And the way is done by learning overseas. The
clear figure is already shown by Sri Mulyani, our ex-Financial Minister. She
was learning Economics at Harvard University. She was successfully led the
Ministry of Finance of Indonesia. And now, she is becoming one of the governors
in World Bank. Guess what, she was learning overseas!
My last question for you, won’t you get as much friends
as possible? You will definitely say yes, I think. In this virtual based-era,
it is important to have a relationship with several persons from another region
in this world. We already knew that people is a social person. We can’t life
without the help of others. It is really urgent that we need to corporate with
several persons to develop our business, or for finding the better job that
suitable with our background. By studying overseas, we can get more colleagues
that might be useful and helpful for our future jobs. This is the analogy,
which one is profitable, having ten friends or thousand friends that can help
us for finding the job?
From those discussion above, we can sum these up that
studying overseas is a better solution for us to shine our future. Not only keeping
our future life, but it also gives several advantages for us. So, what are you
waiting now? Just prepare ourselves with requirements needed for studying
abroad. Take the exam, prepare your passport, prepare your visa, and have a
nice learning atmosphere there! Your country is waiting for his better life. J
