Watching Movie
My sister and I went to see a film last night. It was an American movie called The Lost Flight. It showed how people can quickly change when they have to look after themselves in the jungle. It was an interesting film about a plane which crashed on a small empty island in the Pacific Ocean.Although the passengers were safe, nobody knew where the plane had crashed. So the passengers had to learn how to hunt for food in the jungle and how to catch fish from the sea to eat. After a few weeks, the passengers were eating raw fish and meat.
After they had been on the island for two months, three of the men made a boat and sailed away to find help. But their boat sank and they were drowned.
The film ended without saying whether the passengers were rescued or not. But my sister and I enjoyed the film.
A Trip to Tanjung Setia Beach
Last year, at the end of the
year, my wife and I decided to spend our holiday at Tanjung Setia beach, which
located around 234 kilometers from Bandarlampung.
When we arrived at the beach,
we were surprised to see the beautiful view of the beach. After having a
quick dip in the ocean, which was really cold and windy, we realized that there
were not many people there. We thought that it happened because it was too
windy there during that time but we finally realized that it was Christmas
holiday so almost all of tourists who are used to spending time there went back
to their country.
After spending few times
swimming in the beach, we bought some hot chips at the takeaway store nearby, and
we rode our bikes down the beach for a while, on the hard, damp part of the
sand. The next day we visited Labuan Jukung beach. There, we were
amazed to see the high wave owned by this beach. Because it was so high that no
body was brave enough to surf on it that time.
The third day there, we decided
to go home when we finally made it back home, we were both totally exhausted
because of the trip but we were so happy to travel such an amazing beach
Lampung province has.
Visiting Way Kambas
Yesterday I and my family went
to Way Kambas national park to see the elephants and rhinos conserved there.
Way Kambas National Park is a national park which is used as elephant and rhino
sanctuary located in Labuhan Ratu District, East Lampung, Lampung, Indonesia
.
When we got to there, we saw
some elephant performances such as playing football, sitting, greeting the
visitors, and other entertaining performances. Unfortunately, we could not see
the Sumatran rhinoceros because visitors must have a special permit in advance
to see them. Visitors or ordinary tourists cannot see the Sumatran rhino’s
natural breeding. In the afternoon we saw some animals which
were being fed.
When we returned home we were
tired but we were happy because we had so much fun in Way Kambas.
A Trip to Borobudur Temple
Three years ago, I and my classmates visited Borobudur Temple. We went to Borobudur temple by bus. We left our school at nine o’clock. It took us 24 hours to arrive there. I arrived there nine o’clock the next day. Along the road, we saw many vehicles, unique houses, prominent buildings, and some other tourists.
After we arrived at the
Borobudur temple, one of my teachers went to buy tickets. After we waited him
for a moment we entered into Borobudur temple area. Then we went up to the top
of the temple. Borobudur temple was built at Budur Village, Magelang, Jawa Tengah
by Syailendra Dynasty. Borobudur Temple is the biggest temple in the world. It
has 504 statues and 1.400 reliefs. From the top of the temple we
can see such beautiful scenery. I and my friends went around the temple
together. Finally, after having some visits, we should go to the hotel to stay
and continue our study tour the next day.
We felt tired that day but we
felt so happy to visit Borobudur temple which is well-known as one of the
greatest legacies Indonesia has ever had. I hope the temple can be loved by all
of the visitors and the government.
Holiday in Lembah Pelangi Waterfall
Last holiday, I and my beloved
wife, visited Lembah Pelangi Waterfall in Ngarip District, Tanggamus Regency,
Lampung Province, Indonesia. It was the first time for me to visit such a
wonderful waterfall.
To reach the waterfall
location, we should go on foot after having around three hours trip riding a
motorcycle from Bandarlampung, the capital city of Lampung. When we arrived
there, I was amazed by the beautiful scenery of the waterfall. The air was so
fresh at that time and I could not bear to jump into the water immediately. It
is quite windy there and all I could see only green, green, and green. Hearing
the sound of falling water while we were swimming made me feel peaceful and
relaxing.
Finally, the day was getting
dark and it was time for us to go home. It was such an unforgettable experience
for me. I really enjoyed it.
My Vacation with My Beloved People
One day, my sister named Putri said to me
that she really wanted to go to the beach. So I promised her that the next week
we would go to Mutun beach in Lampung.
The next week, we prepared everything
needed in the morning. We brought some foods and beverages, such as chocolate
wafers, potato chips, water and orange juice. Before going to the beach, I ask
our brother, Bayu, to join us. He agreed to join and we went there together
with our parents. We went there by car. It took 3 hours to arrive there. Then,
we bought tickets in the entrance gate. Before swimming, we changed our clothes
first. We swam there for more than one hour. We felt so tired that we decided
to eat the foods that we had brought. Next, three of us created a very big sand
castle, while my parents were enjoying the beautiful scenery there. After that,
we decided to go home because it was getting dark.
On the way home, we still felt hungry. So we stopped at a restaurant to
have dinner. I ordered sruit, Lampungnese traditional food, while my brother,
my sister, and my parents ordered fried rice. After finished eating, we paid
our bills. Then, we went home. We arrived at home at 9 o’clock. We were tired
but we were absolutely happy.
My Busy Holiday
On February 8th, 2016, I thought this would be a great holiday for me
because that was Chinese New Year holiday. I didn’t celebrate the Chinese New
Year as I’m not Chinese but I guessed that it was a good time for me to get
full refreshing. I was so tired to studying. However, the unpredictable fact
broke everything up.
First like an ordinary daughter, I had to get up early morning to help my
mother, of course after I prayed. Then I did the dishes, cleaned up my room,
and did my bed. I was really in danger if my mom knew that my room was messy.
So, I made it as soon as possible. After finishing everything, my aunts called
me in the afternoon. I did not meet them for a long time so we kept for hours
to talk about some up to date gossips. Not long after that, my neighbor who is
also my schoolmate visited me. She asked my help to finish her homework. At
last, the time was running and the homework was successfully finished. An
unpredictable moment happened after that. To my surprised, I just remembered
that I had a lot of homework too. I got confused and regretful why I did not
check it. As the consequence, I did my homework until late night and it was
hardly finished. Since then, I always check my home work before having a
holiday.
I did not feel this was holiday instead of I had to work hard and got a
long ship with my homework.
Holiday in Pasir Kencana Beach
Last week my friend and I were bored
after three weeks of holidays, so we rode our bikes to Pasir Kencana Beach,
which is only five kilometres from where I live. When we arrived at the beach,
we were surprised to see there was hardly anyone there.
After having a quick dip in the ocean, which was really cold, we realized one reason there were not many people there. It was also quite windy. After we bought some hot chips at the takeaway store nearby, we rode our bikes down the beach for a while, on the hard, damp part of the sand. We had the wind behind us and, before we knew it, we were many miles down the beach.
Before we made the long trip back, we decided to paddle our feet in the water for a while, and then sit down for a rest. While we were sitting on the beach, just chatting, it suddenly dawned on us that all the way back, we would be riding into the strong wind.
When we finally made it back home, we were both totally exhausted! But we learned some good lessons that day.
THE FLOOD
One Christmas in 2007, I was joining a
final test try out at school. It was held from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. One of my
schoolmates, Rini, asked me for accompanying her to the bus stop. When we
arrived there, suddenly the heavy rain fell down from the sky. Rini suggested
me to go home soon while she was entering the bus.
It was still raining when I was home. The rain did not stop and became bigger when the night had come. People were standing in front of their house, hoping that the flood would not come. In the middle of the night, I got news that South Purwodadi had been drowned.
The next day, Purwodadi had become a flood area. All activities were paralyzed. No one went for work or school because the land had been covered by flood. However, I thank God for not allowing the flood entered my house. Even my house had been changed into an emergency kitchen. It was so crowded there. I and my father took a walk around the center market and Central Purwodadi. All that we could see was water and water. At night, the flood looked like a beautiful ocean with the moonlight on it. I felt as if I was one of the passengers of Titanic who was sailing on the sea.
Finally, the flood was starting to decrease in the next morning. I and my family cleaned our front yard together. That was the greatest flood that I had ever experienced in my hometown.
BEING LATE
Last morning, Dinar, my roommate woke up late and she had to go to school.
When she wanted to take her
motorcycle, in fact she couldn’t move it because there were some motorcycles
that blocked up her motorcycle.
She tried to move all of the
motorcycles, so that her motorcycle could move from the garage. But she
couldn’t do it.
Then, she called Adel who had that
motorcycle which blocked it up. After that, her friend who had that motorcycle
helped her. Finally, she could move her motorcycle and rode it to go to school.
