In a study, there is no age limit, young and old are free to study, the important thing is that there is a will.

Rina lives in the city, after Rina graduated from high school, she immediately married Tomi, because they had been hanging out for a long time or dating. After marriage Rina didn't have a job, she only took care of the household and her husband Tomi. Because Tomi has a teacher's job, she didn't mind if Rina doesn't work.

In the second year of their marriage, Rina became pregnant and gave birth to their first daughter, and in the fourth year, Rina also gave birth to their second child.

Day after day, Rina lives happily, taking care of her children and husband. Rina has forgotten her dreams when she was in high school. During high school, Rina aspired to become a teacher like Tomi, but because Rina got married immediately, Rina did not continue her education. Rina also chooses to be a housewife taking care of her husband and children.

After Rina's children have grown up, they get married and have families, Rina and her husband stay at home with no activities at all, and Rina's husband has retired from teaching.

Because Rina has no activities at home, she remembers her dream when she was in school, which was to become a teacher. But Rina was afraid to express her intention to go to college with her husband, she was afraid that her husband would be angry or mock her. So Rina secretly went to apply to campus in that city.

When she was in college, Rina was often ridiculed by the students on campus. They found it funny and didn't believe in Rina attending college, because Rina was 66 years old when she entered college, and they felt that Rina was just coming to campus, and they said never mind, ma'am, just stay at home and take care of the grandchildren. But Rina doesn't care about what they say, in fact, Rina is more diligent in coming to campus, and doing the tasks given by their lecturers.

Actually, it's not just students who are surprised by Rina to go to college, but the lecturers are also surprised. In the first year of college Rina also took the semester exam, Rina's exam results were very good, and did not lose to younger students. The lecturer also congratulated Rina, because Rina can follow all the lessons on campus. Seeing Rina's persistence in attending lessons, Rina's husband also gave support and enthusiasm to be even more active in learning.

During the four years of college, Rina was able to finish her studies, and she graduated with a bachelor's degree. Rina's husband and children are very proud because she was able to finish her studies well. And Rina got an undergraduate degree at the age of 71 years.

After Rina finished her undergraduate studies, she was not satisfied, so Rina wanted to go back to college to get her master's degree, Rina also expressed her intention to her husband.

Her husband still supports his wife to go to college again.

And Rina earned her master's degree at the age of 77 years.

Rina is still not satisfied she wants to get a doctorate degree, and Rina continues to study again, and she gets a doctorate or doctorate at the age of 82 years. Rina also received a muri charter from the government for the oldest student category.

That was a nice story. I am a student and I took Education as my degree, so your article really inspire me.

Sometimes, I am doubting myself if I could really be an inspiration to my students once I started teaching. However, I know that my journey is not yet done.

Like Rina, I'll finish my degree no matter what, even if it takes ages.
