Okay, that's all the opportunity. I will tell you about a special occasion that I celebrated in my life. It was a graduation party that took place three months ago. I celebrated it after I finished my five years of studies. At the event, not only I but also many people who graduated from my university celebrated because it was a crucial event that showcased the commitment of many students to continue their studies at the university. The event took place on my campus in Situ, Tendoloquy, Sepurana, Surabaya, on April 20, 2025. At that event, I celebrated and invited my parents to come to my graduation party. After I finished the event, I went to a practicum view of my campus and took a picture at that place because I think it is a memorable event that I will cherish in the future. It is very special for me because it shows to other people what I have been doing in the past.
