Assalamualaikum wr wb

Good morning / afternoon, thank you very much for the opportunity so that now I can stand
in front of you here. First of all let me express my gratitude to Allah SWT for His grace that
we can gather in good condition today. With all respect the rector, dean, seniors, colleagues,
and my friends in this Institute…..

Dear my beloved friends,

3 (for midwifery diploma) / 4 (nursing bachelor) / 1 (nurse stage) years studying at this
Institute, there is still that feeling, the exactly same feeling that I got when I derived to this
Institute the first time, during orientation.

I walked through the day on this institute comfortably, due to the supports from all of the
elements. They supported me to grow. I could be serious when conducting test or non-
academic matters, but at the other side I also enjoyed every single second together with
friends and seniors.

The lecturers in this institute are those with high passion toward education. The word tired is
not available in their life. They are here to guide us, the student, to conquer things that we
haven’t know before. Each lecturer, with its own character, has full role in shaping the
students. Thank you for everything that you taught us until I successfully graduate now.

Dear my friends that I respect the most,

We have to remember that there is something more important than academic degree. Those
will be overthrew by the attitude of someone. Within days we will leave this Institute, spread
our wings broader and join the society. What we have to emphasize are good etiquette and
attitude. We are not going far in this life just based on what we knew in this college. We are
going to grow in this life by what we will learn after leaving this Institute.

There is one more thing that I learned here. In front of us, there are many people with their
own character. Everyone is different. When we see someone with better path than us, don’t
just follow their path. Every one of us has our own path. Trust yourself, talk to yourself, find
what you want, and that will lead you to success.

The world that we are now facing is rigid, with broader character, and not everything is as
easy as what we faced during college. Ups and downs, struggle during studying at this
Institute were nothing compared to what we will face later. At that point, please do remember
the proud feeling in our heart today, at this very graduation moment, as our principle in
facing any condition.

I want to express my deepest gratitude and thank you for what you’ve done. Be an open-
minded person, facing difference wisely, and hold onto what we’ve got in this college, to
enter the real jungle of life.

Thank you very much.

Assalamualaikum wr wb

Good morning, ladies and gentlemen. With all due respect, the colleagues, dean, rector, and
the student of our pride Institute. First let us say thank you to Allah SWT for His grace that
we can gather in this campus today.

Here I am now, at this podium, in the most delighted and gratified moment. Today, we are all
here to celebrate our graduation moment. It’s a great pleasure to achieve this day.

This is the day. When we enter our graduation moment and downs. My mind still wandered
to the first time we came to this college, as new students. At that time, we were so proud,
being the chosen from the best. The first day we saw new faces, full of spirit. We were
welcomed with open hands by the college where we have been studying until now. We had
great spirit to start the day as Institute student.

Until now, hundreds days later, the spirit is still lingers. The difference is, we are now feel
content of what we have achieved. We succeed being part of our beloved Institute. There
were many days full of stories. We studied the lessons, also the lecturers with their own
characters. We tried to understand the learning system in this Institute. We tried new non-
academic experiences that suited our passion.

One thing that I always hold on to during my journey in this Institute is that I should be a
curious soul to new things. In positive matter, of course. College is the place to process and
becoming new person, ready to mingle to the real life. College is the place to lead ourself. We
are the one who is in charge of our responsibility as Institute student.

Dear my happy friends,

When I was a Institute student, I felt the ups and downs in life. Got low grade, made the
lecturer mad, and once I had no idea what to do. This college is the real witness of what
happened to someone during his self-actualization phase. I got new friends who are now
become family. I looked up to seniors, learning from their experience. I also got many
advices from the lecturers, not only about lessons but also about life.
Our success as Institute student is not determined by our score. It is not measured by how
many trophy and certificate that we got. Also not defined by our workplace later. The most
important thing is the process during our learning journey. The process with all the stories in
it is the real life path that we will keep in our heart forever.

Dear friends that I’m proud of,

Starting from tomorrow we have new status in our shoulder. We will spread our wings,
leaving this college. We will enter the real life. What we are now is different with the
moment when we came here the first time. This journey will be our norm. No word can
express how proud and gratitude I am for being part of this Institute. Thank you everyone that
I know for being part of my long journey during my study.

Let’s be a person that gives benefit to the society, be a person that our Institute will be proud
of. Let me say my sincere apologize if I did something wrong to you.
Goodbye, everyone. This is not the end. I hope our path will cross someday in great
endeavour.

Cheers.
