MAKSI ; HARMONY IN DIVERSITY

On the 10th of February , there is a quite big event held by my school in Bika Soga Bandung. It's called maksi which is the short term for malam ansi. Malam means night and aksi means event. So, its an event that is held in the night time. Many attractive performers perform in maksi. There are various bands, dance group, and dramas performed. My dance team has a chance to perform on maksi. Our group's name is hype. From the name, you can tell that our group is pretty lit. 

this is us

Not everyone can perform in maksi. There was an audition where many performers are selected. The one who is not accepted can't perform in maksi. While the one who is accepted can perform in maksi. I am thankful that our group was accepted and we are able to perform our dances in maksi. It's not a short process for us to prepare for the event. Maksi which was held on February 2017, we started to practice on November 2016. We faced many struggles in preparing. We have to give some of our time for practicing. For me, all our efforts are worth it because its such a once-in-a-time experience that not anyone could experience it. We are lucky to be able to show our dance skills to people. It also gives us a new experience.

I thank the school for holding such a wonderful event where students can show their skill to others. By holding an event like maksi, students are encouraged to participate in performing. Also, Maksi gives a new experience to students who are able to perform. 

Flood In Bandung

We all know that heavy rain may cause the occurance of flood. These days, Bandung experiences rainy day every now and then. No wonder, the heavy rain caused 180cm or 1,8 metres flood in 15 regions in Bandung district. Cicalengka, Rancaekek, Cileunyi, Solokan Jeruk, Majalaya, Ciparay, Baleendah, Dayeuhkolot, Bojongsoang, Pameungpeuk, Banjaran, Arjasri, Cangkuang, Katapang and Kutawaringin are the regions which are flooded. The flood that started on Saturday, 29^th of October made all the citizens anxious. Around 691 people were evacuated.

The people who are evacuated are being treated by the rescue team (SAR). Food was given and the people were oftenly checked by the team.

The downpour also got some cars to be drifted by the heavy flow and causing them to break. It is told that the gutters which are fulled with rubbishes made the flood bigger. Fortunately, most of the victims were saved and 2 people died.

Thailand Trip

Hi guys!

Its been a while since i posted in my blog.

Now I'm back due to my teacher's order.

I'd like to tell my exciting journey during my trip to Thailand.

Hope you guys like it ^^

My last holiday started from June to July. It took about 1 month. Even though it seems a long holiday, i feel the opposite. I really enjoyed my holiday this time. I spent my joyful moments this holiday with my family by taking vacation to Thailand . 

That was my first time going to Thailand. Thailand is such a great country! My family addicted to their street food. Thai's street food tasted similar to the one in Indonesia. One of my favourite dishes in Thailand is pad thai. Pad thai is like noodle-shaped food. It looks similar with kwetiau (Indonesian food). 

We went to 3 cities in Thailand. They were Phuket, Bangkok, and Pattaya. Phuket is located near the sea, so i found many beaches there. The sea in Phuket is very pretty and clean. It is surrounded by numbers of island. One of them is Phi Phi Island which we visited.

Isn't it pretty? (Phi Phi Island)

Bangkok is the capital city of Thailand. There are a lot of huge malls. The famous one is called as Platinum.

Pattaya is the city where most of incredible shows are held. One of them is known as Alcazar. It was the show of ladyboys. In that show, they were dancing. One thing that makes me amazed was their appearance. They seem like the real female. Most of them have pretty faces and thin bodies like the Victoria's Secret models LOL. They comforted all the spectator a lot. In the end of the show, usually all the ladyboys go out and offer people to take photos with them. We must pay for taking photo with them.

this is one of the pretty ladyboy.

Another unique show that we watched in Pattaya is The Elephant Show. From only the name, you can tell that the show is about elephants. The elephants are very talented. They are trained to be able to dance, paint, playing basketball, etc. It was such a great show!

This is the elephant show in Noong Nooch Pattaya.

He has a good voice and he can play guitar. He was born in September 13th 1993 (Ireland). He used to be in a group called One Direction. Now , that group is on a break. He was well-known because he joined a talent show called x-factor and that how his group was created. 

Scout Camp

Last Monday, i went to Pine Forest for a camp (scout camp). We arrived at school at around 5.30 am to gather with the teachers. We started our journey by riding truck it can be said as an army truck. We arrived after around 2 hours and my class' truck arrived the latest from all trucks because of traffic jam. We joined the opening ceremony and we were allowed to move our belongings to the tents. In the afternoon, there were games. We played even though it was raining. Before we slept, we all were scolded by the teachers for various mistakes. We were punished by the teachers. We were made by the teachers to squat and stand.

The next day, we cooked our breakfast by ourselves. My group made a delicious pork rice. After filling our tummies, we prepared ourselves to go back home.

Although this camp is very tiring, i got a lot important lessons.

Thank you for reading! <3

Descendants Of The Sun

First of all, i'm not a big fan of korean drama. But, since this drama has been a popular topics of all people these days, i decided to watch it. I think the story is interesting because it is very uncommon that a man who is a soldier can fall in love with a doctor. It doesn't make any sense right?

Lots of my friends also  watch this drama. Not only the plot of the story which make it interesting, the director also chooses attractive actors and actress. Especially the most handsome one called JoongKi. He is the main character of this drama. I like the way he acts in the drama. He has a good sense of humour too. It makes the drama more fun.

The drama can make us laugh,cry, even fall in love with the characters. The couple in this drama is also very romantic. Many people wasted their time only to sit and watch this drama.

These are two of the characters  :

This is Joong Ki, his name in the story is Yoo Si Jin, he acts as a soldier.

This is Song Hye Kyo who acts as a doctor. Her name in the story is Kang Mo Yeon.

Thank you for reading this post, i hope you like it ;)
