My friend from abroad

                      

                  I have a friend who lives in Malaysia, in Kajang to be exact. Her name is Nessarose Wong, but I usually call her with a simple “Nessa”. I know her at first from her facebook fanspage. She is a college student who loves to cosplay, that’s why I can find her page easily . She is 2 years older than me and she is very independent in her daily life. 

                She was born in 22 November 1995, at Kajang, Malaysia. She told me that she had a memory when she was a little girl. It was her childhood’s memory  when her hair was too long,  she sat in front of her house door and her mum knew what it means, her mum came to her with scissors and had her hair cut. She also had a funny memories when she was in kindergarten and primary school, her friends called her name “pineapple” because of her Chinese name’s pronunciation is almost the same as saying “pineapple” in Chinese. But she only took it as a joke and she wasn’t mad at all.

                She is a friendly,open-minded and easy-going person. Its obvious that she has a lot of friends abroad, including me from Indonesia and other nation such as Hongkong, Thailand and Taiwan. On her secondary school, she has buddies and her buddies name were Kon Mei Che and Josephine Luk, They were good friends and until now they are still keep in touch to each other. She is bad at math, same like me haha but she is extremely clever on Chinese and English subject. Also when she was still in secondary school, almost every evening after her school had over she always spent her time playing badminton with her friends, not just female friends but also male friends.

                She attended a college in Malaysia, called New Era College, it is far from her house so she stayed on a boarding house and shared a room with her roommate named Ng Hue Yee, they were in the different major but same college. They had good memories together, like sharing food together, helping each other homework even though sometimes they didn’t even know what they wrote. She entered college because she wasn’t satisfied with her knowledge and she wanted to learn more. Almost forget, her major is journalism, she took it because she thought it was interesting, and her decision was right, until now she still likes it and interesting. Also, now she doesn’t stay in boarding house anymore because her eldest brother always pick her up everyday and escort her from her home to college vice versa.

                When she was still staying in boarding house, she looked for a part time job, and her first part time job was a cashier worker in a distro/clothes store. She got a good salary but she had troubled with the time of the work, it was from 3 up to 9 p.m. So , after 6 months working there, she resigned. Her worst job was teaching assistant in a kindergarten, she is friendly indeed, but she is not that patient to a lot of children and she sometimes mad because of the children making too much noise. She only stayed on that job for 1 month and then she quited. After she quited that job, her brother was able to escort her so she doesn’t have to work until now.

                Talking about her siblings, she has 2 older brothers, the first one is 11 years older than her, and the second one is 10 years older than her. So, she is the youngest child in her family. Surprisingly she doesn’t go that well in saying opinion with her parents also her parents are sometimes over-protective. The one who knows her so well and mostly help her is her eldest brother, they also go well together in almost every aspect. Like hobbies, job and favorite food.

                Even though, her parents are very protective, she doesn’t have problems in love. She also doesn’t believe fall in love in first sight. She said that its only love for children and its not a serious and true love. She hasn’t told me about her love story, but looks like she already has a boyfriend, because last time I chatted to her she was preparing a very good gift for “someone special” to her. She is a very good listener and she talk less. By knowing her personality, I bet her boyfriend is the opposite of her personality. Like, cheerful, talkative and has an ice-breaker personality.

                If we say something about her interest,journalism. It has a relation with politics. She wished democration political parties ( General Election ) in her country will be better if the government prevent political supremacy by some people with no responsibility. The first chinese emperor named Wu-hou inspired her with her life story and how she lead china back then. It was full with justice and no corruption was found on her time.

                I usually talk with her about something she has been wanting to do since she was kid and what she hated. She wish she could fly into the sky and leaving all of her burden here in the earth. Sounds childish, but sometimes I agree with that, because college’s assignments and tasks will left you without free time anyway.  And what she hated is losing people she loves, because it will make her sad and lose her passion, for a while. Another and last thing about her is her another wish, she wish she could land on the moon and explore it. She would try her best to investigate it and takes photo of earth from the moon. Well, I don’t know how she could possibly do that, but dreaming and wishing is free. So, from her I learned that nobody should be prohibited to dream about something, even though its impossible for the time being, but it may occur in the future.

              Her latest job is become a model, also a cosplayer. That's how i met her in the first place anyway :). In the end, i hope i can meet her sometimes, in fact i want to meet all of my cyber friends from abroad so i can talk to them and learn some things about them, like their culture, language and so on.

 

One of her best cosplay works. :)

Last Journal

                 Since last 3 weeks, finally I have finished my narrative story. To be honest i was too excited to write the second part though. It’s almost 2000 words and because of that, only few of my friends read it. Reading my friends’ stories, is also exciting. They have motivational story like Zakharia’s , Ghost and supernatural story like Tyta’s and History of war like Kristian’s. By reading their story, i conclude that they didn’t write theirs too long and theirs were better than mine. So last week I decided to reduce the words for my last part of narrative story so it won't be boring like the previous one.

                Also just last Monday, I attended an event which conducted by EDR2 Laboratory. It was a writing event. The topic was about “Long Life Education” but the type of text, must be a narrative. Which means not really happen like recount text. Based on this, I wrote a story about a girl who’s got spoiled since she was child and made her become dependent to her family , especially her parents. But at some point when she realized she should be an independent person, she committed to do it and she found herself succeed with her own effort.

                Next week, I’m going to enter the “finals week” and I have to do my best about it. But before the finals even begin. My lecturer, Mam ice wrote something on her blog. It was the final task of writing class which should be collected on the finals and attached on the exam paper. But it also has to  be published on my blog.

And the last task , My lecturer asked my class to make a biography of someone who’s still alive. I was confused to choose whom to be interviewed. Fortunately, one of my friends from abroad willing to help me. She has some free time to answer my interview. Actually I chatted to her a lot, she is like my older sister already. And her story is quite interesting in my opinion. I’m going to send half of her story to my lecturer this week, and I hope she enjoys my biography about her. For the finals I hope I can get an A on every subject. May God bless me and all of my colleagues so we can pass this semester well :).

The Story of a Dragon Slayer Boy -END-

                Xin, remembered when he was still “no one” , he always thought how did he became the king of Saint Angelo. Even though he was a king, he’s not arrogant and he rarely stayed on his throne. He said to himself : “ I wish you were here and I want to thank you for last time, you gave me your power to slay the Dark Dragon, Hades “ he said sadly while holding a photo of his father and mother. After a while, he realized who his mother was.  He went back from Saint Angelo to Fairy Town with his kingdom’s representatives.

                

               From afar, people of Fairy town was shouting for someone’s name who was familiar. They were shouting and cheering for Xin’s name. Teramai, who was reading bible for the people, surprised of Xin’s presence. “Are you …. Xin? My brave boy ? “ he asked slowly. “Yes, I am Priest Teramai. I came here to meet you and ask you something.” Xin replied calmly. “ But before that, why are you wearing King’s clothes?” Teramai asked curiously. “ Haven’t you heard the news? Saint Angelo’s former king was assassinated by his own bishop, and I had taken care of the bishop and the one who killed my father.” Xin replied bravely. “ Oh my God, you have improved significantly my child!” He replied enthustiatically. “Yes, anyway I want to ask about the whereabouts of my mother, is she still alive”? as Xin was asking, an old blacksmith in the fairy town,Berlin answered xin’s question : “ Yes, she is. I heard she was separated from your father when he was killed , before she left, she told me not to tell me where she is, but I think its because you were still a child, and now you are grown-ups so I will tell you where she is. She is at a city near desert, the city is called Heart of Euterpe.” “Thank you old man, I mean Mr.Berlin. That answered my question completely!” Xin answered happily.

                

               Xin keep asking people in fairy town where Heart of Euterpe was, and no one knew where it was. Feeling sad, he came back to Saint Angelo and asked there. Luckily, there was a girl, an Arabian dancer, named Rhea. She knew where it was, because it was her hometown. She lead Xin and his friends to Heart of Euterpe. And it was on the west side of Saint Angelo. Heart of euterpe, was small and silent. On the edge of the town, there was a small house. From outside, Xin and friends could hear a sound and melody of harp. Xin knocked the house’s door and there was a woman who opened it, it was Xin’s mother. People said it was a musician’s house named Erato. It was right, and Xin asked : “ You left your son, when he was kid, right? And your name is Erato , isn’t it?” That woman just nodded and said : “ I’m sorry Xin, … my only son” They embraced each other. and Xin’s friends cheers for he had found his mother who was separated from him since he was child. Xin brought along his mother to Saint Angelo and she was chosen by the kingdom’s people to be the musician of the kingdom and they lived along together happily afterwards.

The Story of a Dragon Slayer Boy part.2

Here is the second part of my narrative story, its quite long , especially on the fighting short (because i received feedback about the fighting part was too short) Hope you enjoy the story~                   

                  2 Weeks after the great battle at Foothills of black mountain, the four adventurers knew each other and they had become partners. The four adventurers decided to left the Fairy Town because they thought no threat left near the town. Xin , however hardly could left the town. “Why don’t you want to come with us to Saint Angelo?” said Jake, Angelica and Lire. “ I just feel like this is where I belong..” said Xin with low voice. “C’mon, we’re adventurers. We have to go on a journey and I heard a huge city of Saint Angelo has a place for us to stay” said Jake. “But first, before we leave. I want to go to somewhere near our way to Saint Angelo” consisted Xin. “Ok, just please don’t be sad like that” said Angelica with caring voice.

                On their way to Saint Angelo, it was at almost midnight. Xin told the other three adventurers to wait for him. “ Stay here for a while.” Then, he was going to a narrow path and ended up in a funeral which decorated with flowers, also a sword. He whispered to it : “If you were still alive, I would like you to see how I defeated the dragon who had slayed you before. But in the end, it doesn’t matter, I hope you will accompany me through this journey with my fellow friends” He started to cry, but he wiped all of his tears and went back to where their friends were waiting. “Thanks guys, i think I’m ready to leave, Let’s go!” said Xin. “mmm-kay” Lire spoke softly. “Why do you sound like you’re not in high-spirited Lire?” asked Jake. “Nah, I’m just sleepy” Lire replied. Before Xin went to the funeral, Lire silently followed Xin and she saw a name on the tomb, “R.I.P  Gerraint Hero of Fairy Town”.

                They arrived on a small village, named Deck village . It’s named like that because most people in the village work as a mechanic and pilot. Before they went to the Saint Angelo, Jake had contacted his pilot friend which’s name is Robert. They had to go to Saint Angelo via Airship, and fortunately the airship pilot, Robert had all of the goods of the adventurers loaded to the airship and they were ready to fly to Saint Angelo. It was a long journey and on the night, Lire was the one who still awake on the airship, she went to Xin’s room and whispered him  “ Are you gerraint’s only child? “. Xin who’s still half sleepy suddenly got up and answered  “ Why do you ask about that?” Xin replied rudely. “Because I know who’s the one who killed your father, Gerraint. The murderer lived in a Hollow and Frightening Place named Anu Arendel, it is located near Saint Angelo by the way.” Xin surprised and he asked curiously : “How did you know that? How did my father got killed by that guy? How strong is he?” . Before Xin asked more Lire had put her finger in front of his lips. “Psshhh.. everyone is still sleeping, don’t wake them up” Lire said with very low voice. “Okay, okay , I got it. Now I think we just have to sleep and wait for tomorrow morning we may arrive at Saint Angelo , there we can ask local people about that incident” replied Xin with high spirit.

               

On the next morning, “ Wake up guys, we’re already in Saint Angelo!” shouted Robert Enthustiatically. “Thanks Robert, I owe you one, later when you need help, just tell me!” thanked Jake as they went down from the airship. Soon after they walked a while they arrived at the biggest City, in fact it’s a kingdom of Saint Angelo, as it was said by the three adventurers, It was surprisingly huge!. Xin who hadn’t ever gone out from his town, amazed with the view and the crowds. “WOW, now this is what you call a Kingdom!”  said Xin loudly.

Lire whispered to Xin “ Don’t get your spirit up, we’re not done yet with your father’s murderer business” “I almost forget, thanks for the reminder” replied Xin. They walked around the kingdom and bought many things, like grocers and armory for their equipments. Xin and Lire told Jake and Angelica to go straight to the Inn because they want to meet the King of Saint Angelo. Soon after that, They arrived at the Kingdom Palace and met the Bishop Ignatius and the King Castor. While Jake and Angelica were talking with other people in the Inn , Xin and Lire asked the Bishop and the King about Anu Arendel. “Do you know a hollow and mysterious place around here? I heard the name is Anu Arendel.” Ignatio with his reflect said : “ NO, we know nothing about that, we’re just a peace and an anti-war kingdom” “But I know that place actually, it’s near the huge tree on the east of this city, and rumor said the gateway to Anu Arendel only opened at midnight and only people with bravery and faith could see the gateway” Castor replied to Xin’s question completely. “You mustn’t tell them that your majesty!” said Ignatio which sounded like a scold. “Let them know, it’s their choice to go there or not”. “Thank you your majesty, We are leaving now” Said Xin and Lire. After They had received the information about the whereabouts of Anu Arendel they went to the Local Inn there and spent their night there.

On the night, many troops of the kingdom ran to the palace and sounded the bell, The four adventurers awoke and followed the troops to the palace, all people there shocked after seeing a dead body sliced in two. The King Castor found Dead. Also, Bishop Ignatio is nowhere to be found. “He’s in charge to protect the king but he left him alone!” said the crowds angrily. “It can’t be, we just met him yesterday.” Surprised Xin. “What were you guys talked with the King, actually?” asked Jake and Angelica. Xin couldn’t hide about it anymore and told them the truth. The four adventurers assumed that it was the Bishop who killed them or the one who murdered gerraint.

Just as the guide of the king, they went to the east of the kingdom. They found a big tree, almost the same size as the palace. “It must be the place” Lire said.  With their bravery and faith, they entered a very dark gateway on the back of the tree, which like a black hole. They are sucked into the gateway and found themselves in a Dark and Hollow place. “Where are we?” the four adventurers asked each other. “HAHAHA, so you come here at last” a familiar voice came out of nowhere. “Who’s there?! , Are u the one who killed my father?! Come and face me you loser!” Xin replied furiously.

“I’m the one who killed that Kid Castor and I will kill you all here kids!” said a man in a white robe. It was Ignatio !. He turned back and there was a guy with a sharp and long sword. “That man is the murderer Xin!” Lire shouted. Xin, without thinking jumped and tried to slash both ignatio and the mysterious guy. But he couldn’t because they were protected by a dark spell. “Try harder..” the man provoked, His name was Hades. It was written on his sword. “ I’m afraid i can’t let you live !” Jake immediately summoned a Holy Light which make both Ignatio and Hades Blinded.

“Now’s your time Xin!” Jake told Xin to attack them. Xin quickly drew his sword and slashed ignatio on his chest and made him dead like how he was murdered the King. Hades recovered faster than Ignatio, avoided all of Xin’s attack. He cursed all of Xin’s friends and made them sucked into black hole and hidden. “NO, what have you done ?!” Xin hopelessly saw his friends disappeared into darkness.

“Xin , you’re just a young boy who can’t do anything alone!” shouted Hades harshly. Xin just kept silent and suddenly he recalled all of his friends, family and the people who had supported him since he was born. While Xin’s praying and recalling, Hades tried to attack Xin speedily, but Xin suddenly blocked that attack fast and precisely. Hades couldn’t hold his anger anymore, he transformed into a severely huge dragon with black wings and dark breath. Xin looked up to the top of Anu arendel. He saw an angel with a Golden Sword with a legendary name written there. “Gerraint the legendary white dragon”. Xin as soon as he received the silver sword. He shout powerfully : “ Father, Give me your strength!” . A white knight with a dragon sword appeared in a flash. It was Xin who transformed into a dragon knight. Hades didn’t cease his attack , but all of them didn’t damage Xin. Xin with his mighty dragon sword jumped and attacked with an infinity edge to Hades, it made Hades’s wings cut into hundreds. He turned back into his human form and lie down on the ground. “Now you know that dragon slayer who has been killed, has his revenge by his own child.” Said Xin with Gerraint’s voice. After Hades had killed, his three friends recovered and returned to his side, Xin had turned back into his original form and embraced his friends : “ I’m glad that you guys are still alive”. “What did you do to hades that lead you to victory Xin?” They asked desperately. “ My father “ Xin replied shortly. As they went back from Anu Arendel, it was vanished and the atmosphere around the kingdom had returned to normal. After knowing the news, people in the kingdom cheered for  xin. Soon after that, Xin had chosen as the new King of Saint Angelo and his friends became the kingdom’s representatives.

The Story of a Dragon Slayer Boy

Hello guys, i want to share the first part of my narrative story . Hope you guys enjoy reading my story.~

The Story of a Dragon Slayer Boy

          Once upon a time, in a nation called Legendia. A young and energic boy named Xin lived together with a priest called Teramai. He loved helping and caring others but sadly he didn’t  have many friends. The one who cared about him was Teramai himself.

            Xin lived in a town on south part of legendia called Fairy Town, many people who live there were merchants and soldiers. One day in the afternoon, when Xin traveled around to find wood in the shadow forest which located near Fairy Town, He found himself isolated by a group of barbarian who tried to steal his money. He didn’t bring any weapon to defend himself, but suddenly.., An arrow came out of nowhere and hit one of the barbarian and it was an arrow of an archranger named Lire, who knew around the village as a sharpshooter. In a blink of an eye, all of the barbarian escaped and Xin could survive their attack. Trying to be polite and thankful, Xin expressed his appreciation to Lire, but she only responded it with a cold smile.

            The next day, Fairy Town Mayor, Harold told the whole villagers that Fairy Town will be attacked by a heresy and misleading group called The Dragon Followers. The whole town panicked and tried to save their own life by migrating to the north town called Mana Ridge. They believed people in Mana Ridge would be able to help them, because most of them are priests and magicians.

            Xin, with his own bravery. Stood on his own feet , defending the whole town and said : “ Don’t panic , I got this!”, but nobody noticed him as the whole town keep running away from Fairy town. Before his parents died, Xin’s father , Gerraint trained him to be a swordmaster , but his father always said : “ Use your weapon wisely and be ready in all times”. Xin recalled this and what Mayor Harold told was true, the dragon followers arrived as soon as the night fell.

            Xin wasn’t alone, Lire who’s an elf came from the shadow forest and helped him again, but this time it was more difficult as they faced not only a group of dragon follower, but the dragon itself !.  They fought but unfortunately both of them reached their limit and they weren’t able to defeat the invaders.

            On their retreat, a paladin and a magician from Mana Ridge came to them and introduced themselves as the reinforcement from the north. The Paladin name was Jake, and the magician name was Angelica, they offered Xin and Lire to go back  to Fairy Town, but it was too late because Fairy Town had been demolished by the dragon followers and they had no choice but to escape.

           

The dragon who had been summoned by the dragon followers didn’t let them go easily, It flew around and found the fourth adventurers on Foothills of Black Mountain. It blocked their escape route , and in the end , They could not escape and decided to fight that Dragon!.

Xin who’s in the front line attacked the dragon furiously with his father’s legendary sword, but it’s only like a toothpick for the dragon. Lire with her Eaglesong bow, also attacked the dragon with her agility , and her aim was never miss, it hit the dragon eyes!. Angelica with her Elemental mastery, use her staff to summon a fire and ice storm but on her way to summon the storm, the dragon's breath made her turned into stone. The Paladin, Jake with his faith and bible, prayed and dispelled the petrifying dragon’s breath from Angelica. The fourth adventurers agreed to attacked the dragon together on its head and it was right! The Mighty Dragon fell after a single blow on the head by the fourth adventurer. As a group of adventurers who didn't know each others, they had saved the day and also the town. The Dragon followers also nowhere to be found after that attack and their existence was no more. Xin and his group rebuilt the Fairy Town and they lived with peace without worrying about the misleading group, dragon followers.

My Third Journal

So here I am, the mid-term test has already finished. Actualy, I’m worried about my score, especially on human philosophy class . I think it’s the most difficult subject I’ve ever had in my whole life. For Writing I subject itself, I’m quite sure that I’ll pass. By the way Mam ice , my lecturer hasn’t announced the score that’s why I’m still curious about it.

Last 3 weeks, my lecturers Mam ice and Mam Ing, told us to make our own Zodiac. Hmm zodiac, For some people ,It’s not easy to believe zodiac’s forecast or we usually know as Horoscope. But some of them takes it seriously , for example on this year their romantic stuff will be rise and they will find their lovers. But sadly not all of them got the same result as the forecast. Let’s back to the topic, before I made my own zodiac I was wondering about animal or mythology creature that has similar personality like me, and in the end, I found that winter wyvern which has a cold personality but also kind , fits me well.

Last 2 weeks, on 11^th April 2016 to be exact, we had a cultural event called ICFC its quite amusing and interesting but I think in the future the committee should invite representatives from around Asia like Japan , Hongkong , Taiwan, Thailand, Vietnam and  Phillipines . Because I'm curious to learn their language as I want to be a tour guide, I need other language beside English so I can communicate better and more fluently.

And the latest task, my class finally reached the Unit that basically talk about narrative, In my head, when I think about narrative all kinds of fairy tales popped up and make me recall them. But this time I have to work on my own narrative story!. Because I like game and fantasy stuff, so I chose fantasy as my theme of my narrative story, I’m quite hyped when I wrote the story because I felt like I was in the story!. Lastly I want to improve about my accuracy and precision when I’m writing because I found some mistakes on my original narrative story, like : “They wasn’t” and I wrote the wrong name on some characters like “Xin became Xian”.  And finally I think narrative is my favorite kind of text so I will work more seriously and I hope next month , when there will be an event about writing narrative I could win the first place and earn the prize and if I win, I will share the prize (money) to my parents  to make them happy.

My Impression about ICFC

Last Friday , i attended an event called ICFC, it stands for International Cultural Festival and Celebration. The event itself is quite fun because the auditorium had decorated and there are some booths that represented  from each nation. The representatives were from China,Indonesia,Belarusia,France,Spain and lastly, Germany.

China who went to the stage first, presented about their cultural handwriting called Chinese calligraphy which very difficult to write haha~, and they describe about their traditional house which has a pool in front of it, Chinese people believe that a pool is needed in some situations like when their house is burning they can extinguish the fire with it, also it can be a fish pond too.

France’s representative came to the stage after china’s, they taught us about how to pronounce france like a sir, my tongue got twisted many times urgh, Belarus as the third competitor, came to the stage and told us about their nation, which located on Eastern Europe, it has a beautiful  land and it’s actually landlocked, it means they don’t have direct access to the sea.

Spain’s representative was Domingo himself, he showed a video about city in spain and its carnaval, but that’s not all, Domingo’s friends which are salsa dancers surprisingly came to the stage and taught everyone to dance salsa, the dance itself was quite energic and fast that it could burn calories and make you lost your weight, an interesting way to diet!

The fifth representative was Indonesia itself, they described about our traditional food, Pecel. Which is a mixed vegetables with peanut sauce, and then two singers came to the stage and sang many traditional songs from almost every part of Indonesia like Yamko Rambe Yamko and Ondel-Ondel.

And last but not least, the representative from Germany, actually the representative was very kind, she gave many prizes to every of us who could answer her questions about germany, like it’s famous singer, part of germany and germany's famous landmark. From this event, I conclude that this kind of event is amusing , even the audience from High School Students were all excited and it's useful too because it gives me some knowledge about other nation. In the future ,I hope this kind of event can invite representative from Thailand,Taiwan,Japan, and around Asia, so it will be more amusing and I can learn their language as well.

My own kind of Zodiac

            Since I was a kid, I’m always curious and I like everything about dragons, especially wyvern. A wyvern itself is a mythology creature from ancient greek and medieval culture, who lives in the caves and breathes fire. So, I will make a zodiac sign with a sign of a specific kind of wyvern, a Winter Wyvern. Winter wyvern is a fictional kind of wyvern that mostly known from an online game called Dota . Here is an artwork of winter wyvern. The Picture source is from tumblr.

                                                      

People who have this zodiac have a unique personality. Their element is Ice. They are kind, calm and patient but sometimes they are too shy and uptight to one another. They like to mentally support their relatives including friends and family. They may look silent, but they have many inspirations to be expressed and explained. Don’t make them angry because, you don’t want to see an anger of a patient and calm person, right?

Also,people who have this zodiac have their secret goals, they are : to be communicative and easy going, to be able to control their emotion, and to be valued and appreciated by others.

People who have this zodiac will be a perfect couple with another zodiac such as : Leo, who is able to be a leader to lead the way and help them(refers to the people with Wyvern zodiac) to be  brave , responsible and able to control their emotion. Also People with Sagitarius zodiac, who have an optimistic and honest personalities that can motivate people with wyvern zodiac to be more optimistic and be an easy going person,also their honesty can help people with wyvern zodiac to be more open to criticsm and able to introspect themselves to be a better person. And the last, here is the Wyvern Logo by Ninjawoof as the zodiac sign.

Moment of comeback

            Humans, as long as they live they will face many kinds of events, whether it’s good or bad, a progress or a regress . Just like yin and yang, this world where we live has balance in all things. I want to tell you the moment when I made a  “comeback” from my sorrow and rose up to be a “better me”.

            When i was an elementary student, most of my friends were friendly and very cheerful, yet sometimes they were annoying , they like to mock if i do something wrong or got a bad score. Usually the way they mock was like repeating my name and keep saying my score with monotone voices. Because I was still a kid, sometimes I cried and told my mom about it, but my mom always told me : “if you do the same thing like them,you are not better than them.” That sentence always came up in my mind everytime I want to hit and punch the mockers. “Mockers and bully, why do they even exist?” i asked this question to myself.

            It said that life as a junior highschool student is usually full with delight and happiness. I think that rule was inappropriate for me. At first,nothing bad happened on my first year in junior highschool but then, on my second year on junior highschool. That misery started and surprisingly the guy who was the bully’s boss is my “best friend”. Let me tell you about what happened before this guy became my first enemy on school.

            Am I allowed to put his full name on this post? I don’t really care though if he reads this , His nickname is Thody, our first meeting was when I was on 5^th grade on elementary school, he played basketball a lot with me, almost every afternoon until evening. He was a really an interesting person, he taught me about sports and how to use social media, as I remember he made me account for Facebook and Yahoo. I had a good relationship with his family too.I know his family background, his father is from Medan and his father’s clan is Batak, and his mother is from Manado , and his mother's clan is Minahasa . Nothing bad happened at first, since he was a really good person, but I felt something that made me uncomfortable. He always copied my homework, he talked dirty words almost everytime (except in front of his parents of course~) , he also asked the answers on every exam. He said its for the feedback for his kindness. So he did the whole thing for purpose.

            As soon as I rejected his question of exam’s answer, his behavior turned 180 degress on me ONLY. He bullied me all the time since that day, he also invited his gank to bully me, so he wasn’t alone. They liked to write my name on the whiteboard then put a dirty word in the end of my name and mock my friend’s name which i had crush to and they match me with the girl I don’t like. And of course, they were being racist too.

            I was on the lowest and deepest sorrow of my life, nobody cared about me even my close friends, since they were being threatened by the bully. If my friends help me, they would beat me up when the class was over and spread rumor that i did bad things like fighting each other (juvenile delinquency)  and told everyone that i had dropped out from school.Well, I was almost tired to handle their bully. My family never stop to supported me and gave me advices.

             It was the day of National Exam, that was the final showdown for me to prove them. I don’t need parasite kind of friends like them. Yeah, God is not dead he is surely alive. I got the highest score in my class and beat all the bullies who thought i was lazy and idiot. Some of them moved to other school, since they didn’t pass the exam and some of them were put on different class. I was glad that i can overcome this problem and since that time i became more carefull to make friends. In the future, i know that i can’t avoid this kind of people, but i know how to handle them now. Haters gonna hate and their bully doesn’t make me down but make me become a better person.
