Recount text – Last Holiday and Last Visit Hometown

Hello! This is me in 2020! A new me in the new year, Happy New Year All! 🥳I hope in this year we can do something better than yesterday.

Okay then, I’d like to tell you about my last year’s holiday vacation in 2019 with my big family! Hope you like it!

Last year’s holiday, me and my family went to our hometown in Ciamis. We went there on the 20th of December by car. I had a great time and I did fun activities.

The first day, I helped my auntie to keep on watching of my niece and nephew, yeah, I’m being a babysitter for a while. My niece is only two years old and her brother, my nephew is 7 months years old. My auntie asked me to draw some objects in the paper so that my niece will color it. I drew a princess on the paper and my niece put some color on it. While she colored my draw, I also asked her to speak with the English language, like counting the number, guess the color, and some simple conversation.

At night, we made suki-Yuki with tom yum gravy. It tasted so good. The recipe is easy, we just need tofu, crab sticks, some green vegetables, enoki mushroom, sausage, squid, shrimp, and the tom yum sauce and mixed them one by one, and this is it!

The second day, it was a big day for us. we woke up very early because we’re going to have fun! we went to pangandaran those day. I will tell you about my holiday in pangandaran.

My family went to pangandaran beach. We visited someplace there and do some fun.

We went there by 3 cars, because we went there with the big family. My parents with my auntie and my grandma, my cousin with her husband and her daughter and son, and I join with my sister and my cousins who are the same age. We took about 2 hours from Ciamis to Pangandaran Beach. Along the way, we slept and woke and slept again until we arrived at our destination.

First, we’re looking for a place to stay on the beach. My mom brought some food. There was fried chicken, rice, and some others food. For the drink, my dad bought some coconut milk. It was so delicious and refreshed.


After we ate, we played on the side of the beach and took some photos. All the while, the wind was rising, and it was good. The waves were crashing down on me, I could feel it in my feet. My niece bought some sand stuff, so we also made a things from the beach sand such as castle,crab, and the shells.


Then we played some arcade named “sepeda goes”. We had to oar the four-wheeled cycle. I played with my sister and cousins. I didn’t expect that it was very tiring. We tore sweat so much. But in the middle of the road, we visited a clothing store and bought some beach clothes. The clothes were comfy to wear, matched with the environment there.


After we played and bought some clothes, we ate in the seafood restaurant. I ordered fried squid while the others ordered shrimps, fish, and crabs. And the drink I ordered was orange juice.
We went home after that, and for me, that was a good moment because I could spend time with my family, although after that i felt so dizzy but I really enjoy those moment 🙂

my nephew

The third day was very tiring. I had to fast. although I still exhausted because of the vacation yesterday, I had to do it. yesterday was a long day, even my niece and my nephew had a fever. and others my family members had a headache and felt very weak for a whole day.
So, on the third day, I did nothing.

The fourth day, as always, I had to babysit my nephew and my niece. Teach them about something new or something that they will have when they enter kindergarten. And I also learn too, I was a little bit made an embrace for the second semester besides babysitting my cousins.

On the fifth day, I had nothing to do. so I just watched some videos on youtube, Instagram, chatting with my friend on the line app, and sleep. It was just a boring day, a very very boring day. But in the evening, I had continued my embrace.

Visit my hometown and holiday with a big family last year is very amusing for me. Although that was a boring day, I have do fun there! All the moments and experience on holiday last year was interesting. I would never forget it, I love them so much.

Short Story – ‘I hate it when my brother Charlie has to go away’

I hate it when my brother Charlie has to go away. My parents constantly try to explain to me how sick he is. That I am lucky for having a brain where all the chemicals flow properly to their destinations like undammed rivers. When I complain about how bored I am without a little brother to play with, they try to make me feel bad by pointing out that his boredom likely far surpasses mine, considering his confine to a dark room in an institution. I always beg for them to give him one last chance. Of course, they did at first.

Charlie has been back home several times, each shorter in duration than the last. Every time without fail, it all starts again. The neighbourhood cats with gouged out eyes showing up in his toy chest, my dad’s razors found dropped on the baby slide in the park across the street, mom’s vitamins replaced by bits of dishwasher tablets. My parents are hesitant now, using “last chances” sparingly. They say his disorder makes him charming, makes it easy for him to fake normalcy, and to trick the doctors who care for him into thinking he is ready for rehabilitation. That I will just have to put up with my boredom if it means staying safe from him. I hate it when Charlie has to go away. It makes me have to pretend to be good until he is back.

Story Telling – The Legend Of Tangkuban Perahu

The Legend of Tangkuban Perahu


Once upon a time, in West Java, there lived a wise king who had a beautiful daughter. Her name was Dayang Sumbi. She liked weaving very much. One day, she was weaving a cloth. Suddenly, one of her tool fell to the ground. She was very tired at the time so she was too lazy to take it. Then she just shouted outloud.


“Anybody there? Bring me my tool. I will give you special present. If you are female, I will consider you as my sister. If you are male, I will marry you”


Suddenly a male dog named Tumang came. He brought her falling tool. Dayang Sumbi was very surprised. She regretted her words but she could not deny it. So she had to marry Tumang and leave her father. Then they lived in a small village. Several months later they had a son. His name was Sangkuriang. He was a handsome and healthy boy. Sangkuriang liked hunting very much. He often went hunting to the wood using his arrow. When he went hunting Tumang always with him.


One day Dayang Sumbi wanted to eat deer’s heart.
“Sangkuriang, will you hunt for a deer today? I want to eat a deer’s heart so much.” Asked Dayang Sumbi.
“Of course, mom. Whatever you want, I will give it for you.” Replied Sangkuriang. “Tumang, where are you? Come on, we have to hunt for a deer.”


Then Sangkuriang went to the wood with his arrow and his faithful dog, Tumang. But after several days in the wood Sangkuriang could not find any deer. They were all disappeared. Sangkuriang was exhausted and desperate.
“Oh God, where can I find a deer? I don’t want to dissapoint my mom. Oh! I know,”
Sangkuriang then called Tumang and kill him. He did not know that Tumang was his father. At home he gave Tumang’s heart to her mother.
“Sangkuriang, are you sure it’s a deer’s heart? You can’t lie to me! It is Tumang’s heart, isn’t it? Why did you kill him?” said Dayang Sumbi full of angry. She hit Sangkuriang at his head. Sangkuriang was wounded. There was a scar in his head. She also repelled her son. Sangkuriang left her mother in sadness.


Many years passed and Sangkuriang became a strong young man. He wandered everywhere. One day he arrived at his own village but he did not realized it. There he met Dayang Sumbi. At the time Dayang Sumbi was given an eternal beauty by God, so she stayed young forever. Both of them did not know each other. So they fell in love and then they decided to marry.
But then Dayang Sumbi recognized a scar on Sangkuriang’s head.


“Sangkuriang, why there is a scar on your head?” asked Dayang Sumbi.
“Oh, when I was a child, my mom hit me on my head.” Replied him.


Dayang Sumbi was very shocked. She knew that Sangkuriang was his son. It was impossible for them to marry. She told him but he did not believe her. Sangkuriang wished that they married soon. So Dayang Sumbi gave him a very difficult condition.


“Sangkuriang, if you want to marry me. I have a condition for you. I want you to build a lake and a big boat in one night. I need them for our honeymoon. Can you do that?”
“What! Impossible!. But, it’s okay. For you, I will do it. I can do that!”. Sangkuriang agreed.
With the help of genies and spirits, Sangkuriang tried to build them. By midnight he had finished the lake by building a dam in Citarum river. Then he started building the boat. It was almost dawn when he nearly finished it. Meanwhile Dayang Sumbi kept watching on them. She was very worried when she knew this. So she made lights in the east.


“Huh? Troops, stop your work! It’s already dawn. The sun will start to rise. Quickly, go home, go home!” said the chair of the genies. They left Sangkuriang alone.


“Sangkuriang, you can’t finish my condition. It’s mean that you can’t marry me. You know?” said Dayang Sumbi.


“You cheated! You maked the light, so that my troops go. Because of that, I could not fulfill your condition.” Shouted Sangkuriang.

Sangkuriang was very angry. So he kicked the boat. Then the boat turned out to be Mount Tangkuban Perahu. It means boat upside down. From a distant it looks like a boat upside down.

Oh, woah
Oh, woah
Oh, woah

[Verse 1: Justin Bieber]
You know you love me, I know you care
Just shout whenever and I’ll be there
You want my love, you want my heart
And we will never, ever, ever be apart
Are we an item? Girl, quit playing
We’re just friends, what are you saying?
Said “There’s another,” and looked right in my eyes
My first love broke my heart for the first time, and I was like…

[Chorus: Justin Bieber]
Baby, baby, baby oh
Like baby, baby, baby no
Like baby, baby, baby no oh
Thought you’d always be mine, mine
Baby, baby, baby oh
Like baby, baby, baby no
Like baby, baby, baby no oh
Thought you’d always be mine, mine

[Verse 2: Justin Bieber]
Oh, for you I would have done whatever
And I just can’t believe we ain’t together
And I wanna play it cool, but I’m losing you
I’ll buy you anything, I’ll buy you any ring
And I’m in pieces, baby, fix me
And just shake me ’til you wake me from this bad dream
I’m going down, down, down, down
And I just can’t believe my first love won’t be around, and I’m like…

[Chorus: Justin Bieber]
Baby, baby, baby oh
Like baby, baby, baby no
Like baby, baby, baby no oh
Thought you’d always be mine, mine
Baby, baby, baby oh
Like baby, baby, baby no
Like baby, baby, baby no oh
Thought you’d always be mine, mine

[Verse 3: Ludacris]
(Luda)

When i was 13, i has my first love

There was nobody that compared to my baby
And nobody came between us, nor could ever come above
She had me going crazy

Oh, i was starstruck

She woke me up daily, don’t need no starsbucks
She made my heart pound, and skip a beat when I see her in the street and
At school on the playground, but I really want to see her on the weekend
She knows she’s got me dazing, cause she was so amazing
And now my heart is breaking, but I just keep on saying

[Chorus: Justin Bieber]
Baby, baby, baby oh
Like baby, baby, baby no
Like baby, baby, baby no oh
Thought you’d always be mine, mine
Baby, baby, baby oh
Like baby, baby, baby no
Like baby, baby, baby no oh
Thought you’d always be mine, mine

[Outro: Justin Bieber]
I’m gone, yeah yeah yeah
Now I’m all gone, yeah yeah yeah
Now I’m all gone, yeah yeah yeah
Now I’m all gone, gone, gone, gone, I’m gone

Okay so, in this post, i will give my opinion about this song. Why the song is so famous?

Baby by justin bieber released in 2009, featured artist by ludacris, present in album of My world, and it was producing by Tricky Stewart ; The Dream


Who doesn’t know this song? even people that was born in 2018 will know then. Now, baby have watched by 2.1 billion people on youtube. this song who have duration about 3:45 minutes have 12 Million like and 10 Million dislike.
So, why the song is so famous? In this cases, i have 3 opinion of that


first – everyone hate this song

The idiom “haters make me famous” maybe had proof by this song. sources by The late late show by james corden, “this song(baby) is the most hated song on the internet,” bieber said resignedly. And yeah, it is a little bit true because when you search “most hated song on the internet” and this is the answer

but, i know then, more people hate, more the song will famous


second – everyone love this song

not to blame either, but song baby by justin bieber is a good song, i mean not for the lyrics, but for the tone. The tone have a concept of R&B and set in harmony of young-adult-teens taste.


third-conspiracy theory


This theory is not from me, but from a lot of people that formed in the internet. the sounds of theory is “when you reverse the song, that was element of illuminati, and it is that make the song famous” And, again, it is a little bit true. let me show you the vers of song baby by justin bieber.

is that the conspiracy theory true or not?
so which one that opinion that you believe?

Memorable Events – my embarrassed moments ><

So this is my memorable event. It was such an embarrassing event in my life, but a little bit funny.

It happened when I was in junior high school 2 Bandung. it was raining, and I success to make the field in my school slippery.
lets me show you my school’s field look like.

junior high school 2 bandung’s field

so, it is a large field and it was slippery.
One day, it was Thursday, I have free time in the seni budaya lesson. So, I and my friends were playing around outside the class. Played with rain, make our uniform wet, and slide on the floor, okay I know we were childish, but trust me, it was fun! Firstly, we do fun with the rain in front of the class, but one with my friend asked me to move to the field so we could play freely.

And you know what? when I running to catch one of my friends, I fell off and sliding all the fields.

And I more embarrassed because half of the students in their class were going outside to saw what happened in the field. Maybe I make a few sounds when I fell, I didnt know.

And all of the students who see I fell in the field were laughing at me, and of course, I felt embarrassed but it was fun!

so, I hit my friends who laugh at me, and they run away from me, and this is it! my memorable events.

Honestly, I couldn’t forget those events, because it was an embarrassing moment, but funny one that I had in junior high school with my classmate. i love and i miss them, so much.
