EXAMPLE OF AUTOBIOGRAPHY FOR MASTER IN NUTRITION


AUTOBIOGRAPHY

I am Rany Adelina, I’m the only child from my parents. I was born in Sidoarjo City 23 years ago. This city is near Surabaya, the capital city of East Java, Indonesia. The Sidoarjo City has a nature phenomenon which has happened since year 2006, it is called “Lapindo Mud”. The mud has still spouted from the earth interior to the surface until now, creating a big puddle like a lake. I lived there until elementary school because when I was in the fourth grade my father had to move to another city. So, I followed my family moving in Ciamis City, West Java. Ciamis is like a death city in the night because after 6 pm, almost all of the stores closed. Later, my family moved to Nganjuk City, East Java. It is a quite city. We lived 3 years there. After living in Nganjuk, I moved to Surabaya when my parents had to move to Tual City, Maluku island. I didn’t follow because it is too far from Java. So, I lived with my grand mother in my uncle’s house in Surabaya. When I was in the second grade in Senior High School, I and my grand mother moved to Malang City, in my parents’ house. I am very happy, because I could experience living from one city to another city. I got many experiences from those. I could learn many cultures, indigenous languages, and culinary from each city.

I somehow knew from the time I was ten that I wanted to be a doctor, but the reasons why have changed over the years. I am a different person than I was at eighteen, blindly negotiating the challenges of university life. My family background has greatly influenced my desire to become a dietitian. Before I finished senior high school, my father was suddenly got stroke when visiting me in Malang. Beside stroke in his left body, he also got dysphagia, he only had eaten blenderized food by naso-gastric tube for one year. My father liked eating high carbohydrate and high fat foods. From that habits, we know that he couldn’t control his eating pattern. Food is one of the risky factors toward his diseases. Besides, he was also a smoker. Now, his condition is far better than six years ago when he got stroke. However, he still can’t walk like normal people. Getting my father ills seriously has taught me that health is precious, and also that we need to take good care of our eating pattern to enjoy life as much as possible. Thus, healthy food and nutrition are my key areas of interest.

I want to be a dietitian because it’s about science how we organize healthy eating pattern. It’s a preventing action, but I also can cure patient with food. We have a popular jargon “Let’s your food as your medicine”. So, I took a study about nutrition and health science in Brawijaya University. As a student, I usually followed extracurricular activities like doing nutrition assessment for children in elementary school and giving a free consultation about nutrition and dietetic in health services. Helping people to be aware of their health is not only by becoming a dietitian, I also can dedicate my self to be a lecturer in Health Nutrition Department. Thus, I can assist students to be a generation who care about people’s lives, especially people in my country.

After four years I had completed the university and got my Bachelor degree. Strongly, I feel that studying nutrition is not simply my desire, instead my calling. As a nutrition student, I have learned the importance of living a balanced diet. Therefore, I have to work hard to continue developing my knowledge and getting higher degree of educations.
