Who you had it with

Where did you have it

What was the conversation and why did you have it

Well, I am going to share my experience when I had amazing conversation with one of the famous person in my work field. His name is Mr.Sutejo. Actually, it happened in 2019. At that time, I joined a public training about how our government do their annual budgeting. And one of the speakers in this training was Mr.Sutejo.

In the middle of the break, I tried to approach him in order to have a conversation with him about his experience because I could say that I adore him so much. And I was surprised because he was so humble. He was so open and he shared about his opinions and also his arguments during our conversation. I could say that Mr.Sutejo is so intelligent because he has a sharp mind and also he has a plethora of experience that related to our government annual budgeting system.

In the future, I hope I could meet him again where I could talk about my future career and also my plan to pursue my master degree by studying abroad especially I want to take finance as my major.

My self-correction :

  1. Kata benda conversation bisa countable dan bisa juga uncountable. Tapi dalam konteks ini seharusnya countable.
  2. "I had amazing conversation". Merujuk pada poin nomor 1 maka seharusnya menjadi "I had an amazing conversation"
  3. "one of the famous person in my work field." Kalau ini seharusnya menjadi people, karena setelah ekspersi kata "one of the...." harus diikuti kata benda people
  4. Kata benda experience juga bisa countable dan bisa juga uncountable. Jadi hati hati ya. Kalau dalam konteks ini, jika diikuti dengan quantifier plethora maka seharusnya kata benda nya adalah plural. Contoh kalimat : There's a plethora of books about the royal family.
  5. "he has a plethora of experience" merujuk pada poin nomor 4, maka seharusnya menjadi "he has a plethora of experiences"
  6. "how our government do their annual budgeting.". Berdasarkan kamus Cambridge,
    the government [S] dimana [S] berarti A singular noun. Contoh kalimat : The government is proposing changes to subsidies for renewable energy sources. Jadi ada 2 perbaikan untuk kalimat ini, yakni pertama do menjadi does lalu their menjadi its. Yakni "how our government do its annual budgeting"
  7. "he shared about his opinions and also his arguments" INGETTT kalo share tidak diikuti preposisi about !
  8. "to pursue my master degree"  ini kurang ekstra huruf s seharusnya menjadi master's degree
