CHURCH (A Survival Story)

Clearly I don’t know how could they survive. Who are they? They are Zack and Daniel. Zack is my cousin. He is a 13 years old juvenile who live in Seattle, WA, USA and Daniel, he’s just Zack’s best friend. Right now they are in a hospital recovering from the incident. Fortunately, I was able to visit him about 2 days ago before anyone else (well, except from the doctor and nurse and the person that rescue them ) and I was able to gather a little bit of information about all the adventure/pain that they felt.

So it started a few week ago, with a bright morning light shining through Zack’s window straight onto his eye and at the same time my aunt, Zack’s mother shouted from downstairs. “Zack! Come down your breakfast ready!” So he rushed downstairs eat breakfast and do anything that a normal teenager would do and of course he went to school, but then from this moment everything started to change.

To be honest he hated school (me to). All the boring and bad stuff. I mean just think of that! You know what I meant right ? So Zack predict the day to be boring as ever, but he was wrong. A line of bus came from the road entering the school through the tiny gate. I once came there and the gate is small, but not that small. The driver must have skill!

So all of the student entered separate buses and then all the buses started to drive. Zack stared out of the window wandering where will the bus go. But  everything just got stranger and stranger. The road is just not familiar enough. And then finally the buses stop at a bottom of a hill. Zack thought that the road had finally finished but his hearth broke after knowing that he must walk to the top of the hill. And so he walked.

After quite some time they finally reach the top. I don’t know what’s the felling of Zack after walking quite some time up a hill just to see a church, but who know. So long story short he did what everyone would do inside a church and then his teacher gave all the student a break time.

At the perfect time to fall asleep a mysterious figure decide to interrupt. “BOOOO!”said the mysterious figure. Turned up that mysterious figure is Daniel, Zack’s best friend/rival. So yeah, it took sometime to explain the prank to Zack, but at the end Daniel decided to do something that maybe no student dare to do. He rushed down the hill and Zack was forced to follow, because he is smart and he always know that fighting against Daniel is quite an useless act.

Behind the hill, there stand a quite deep forest. And inside the quite deep forest, there stand a old looking church which both of the boy deeply stared at. That church lost all of it windows, the roof looked like it was going to fall, and you can see a lot of dust, event from some distance! Well if you are me, you are totally not going to go inside the church. I won’t even look at it if possible! Unfortunately Daniel is a really adventurous and a really careless boy. So without thinking at all the risk he rushed into the church!

Zack’s instinct said to call the 911, but nope! No signal. So Zack follow Daniel to inside the church. So turned out that everything went well... for a moment, until the rushing Daniel hit a chandelier that somehow stayed light up until Daniel hit it knocking it down to the ground burning the whole church transforming it into a big pile of ash. Luckily both of them are fast enough to escape the fire, but not fast enough to catch the bus on time.

Now hope started to vanish and desperate started to fill up Zack’s hearth. But hey, that’s not the worst thing in the world right? He could just walk home anytime he want. And at the same time and even worse thing happened. A mountain near their location erupted! Now what did he do? I don’t know. I don’t know how did they survive and I don’t know what happened to Daniel ( the nurse won’t let me know ). He literally fell asleep in the middle of the story telling and after that I was forced by the nurse to leave the room. So maybe some of you are asking yourself. Who is this guy that has been talking to me for the past few minutes? Well my name is William.

NYC

The Big Apple

Holiday, who don’t like holiday? Well, I guest some negative thinking persons that hate life, but that’s not the topic that we’ll be talking about. I’m sure, at least once in your life you are gonna ask yourselves “Where would I want to go for holiday?” Well if you ask me, I think I would go to The Big Apple, or more often called as the New York City (for you that don’t know The Big Apple is a nickname for New York City). Why? Yes, it is the most populated city in the US and it is not the most relaxing place on earth, but there is a lot of things to do there. One of the most popular is the Statue of Liberty. Not only that but there are lot more places to visit in New York such as the Empire State Building, Central Park, Metropolitan Museum of Arts, etc. Food, we’re human and we must eat food. But no worries! As in New York there are thousands of restaurants and don't forget China Town! Let me ask you something, what is a holiday without an entertainment? For me the more interesting part is the Madison Square Gardens. It features lots of major star every night doing pop concert! There is also a live music show, broadway shows, orchestras, ballet companies, and also jazz club! And for the one who can’t hold themselves to do some shopping, don’t be afraid! New York will offer you for an estimated number of about 10.000 stores! And that is why I like New York, lots of store even doe I rarely buy a thing. So why don't you go to New York, there is like nothing that New York cannot offer. Oo yeah I don't actually want to go to New York, but well it's still better than the other choice and this is what the teacher asked me to do! So what could I do!? 

Happy Easter to You All!

First off all, Happy Easter! Second of all I didn't go to church in Sunday. Third off all I have to join my school to another church in Monday. So technically I went to a church but not in Sunday. So what did I do there? It is like what you expected. Everything was like going to a church but it took more time. It took about 2 hours in total from 8 am until 10 am. I don't know about any other church but in my usual church it only take about one hour and thirty minutes. What did I learn there. The theme for the event is 'Change'. The pastor talk about that and circle around that theme and to be honest it's not that interesting, fortunately there are lots of singing (which keep my body from sleeping) and one short drama that was both meaningful and contain some jokes. What else did I do? Nothing else, after the pastor stop talking we sing again and pray then we all went home. (except 'OSIS' student, they have to do some activity that I don't really know)

3 Climber

This is John, a tough and brave 28 years climber from USA that had already climbed lots of mountain in the world. On his latest journey he was going to climb Mount Everest.  The biggest  and tallest mountain in the whole wide world, and the only major mountain that he hasn’t climb, yet. Of course he wouldn’t climb it alone. Luckily there were 2 other climber who kindly participate him. They are Norman and Jake. And so they left America and flew away to start their adventure.

After many hours they finally arrive at the bottom of Mount Everest. Standing in front of them is the great Mount Everest, and then they turn back. The thing is the journey from US to Mount Everest is very exhausting, therefore they decide to have a rest in a local village. On the next day all of their energy are refilled, and now nothing was going to bring them down. So they left the village and begun their track up the mountain but they didn’t tell anyone about it and they know it is dangerous.

Step by step they were defeating Mount Everest. But Mount Everest wasn’t that easy to defeat. The slippery ice of the mountain cause John to fall into the edge but he was saved from plummeting to his dead by a ledge. Unfortunately he break his leg , at least he is still alive.

John was useless and can’t do anything. He can only rest while the other are preparing a camp. It is a very uncomfortable night. The temperature drop like crazy and the injured John become ill.

           Just before they lose hope another group of climber appear in front of their eyes. Without hesitating John screamed as loud as he can “ Help, help, help !” (Screaming in a mountain is not recommended) The other group heard them and begin to rush at the direction of the scream, leading the group to John and his group. They came just in time and gave John first aid kit and helped John to safety and everything goes well. Next time, tell someone if you are going to do something, OK ?

Now there are many water producer in Indonesia and Aqua is one of them. It is none other than the most popular water producer in Indonesia standing for 42 years. No wonder Indonesian called any mineral water aqua.

BeforeBuilding the company he once work at Wonosobo then he moved to Petronas before finally building his company.

SCHOOL Trip To Singapore

Oo hey. people around the world. Have I introduce myself? of course not or maybe I had. Well that's not the point of this writing. Actually I am here to tell you all about my story last week. What sort of story? Well you won't know until now. Last week was a beautiful week and I was really enjoying my moment at Singapore. Yup, I went to Singapore last week! Wasn't it wonderful, for the most part yes and for the other part, kinda amazing. Not that I went to Singapore just to have fun, I also study because it was not like I went away from school just to have fun. I won't  do that okay! Me and my class was going for a study tour!

The first day was rather exciting than boring. Me and my friends also some teacher went to Science Center and also Jcube. The Science Center was not that bad. It's actually pretty good in form of attraction and knowledge. In that place I finally ones what is virtual reality and finally got a chance to try it and actually virtual reality is not that bad. I mean if you are me  I would think that virtual reality is not that good at this time, I think it would need more development  to reach it true potential but nevertheless it was a pretty exciting experience and I really enjoy it. (you know how expensive is an oculust rift right?) The Jcube part was so so. Just like what you expect from a large mall in Singapore.

Science Center from the outside.

Coolest thing in Science center except the oculust rift.

The Great Normal Brain!

The next day we went to church because I told you that it was a school trip not a kid running away from school. But then we went to Universal Studio Singapore or what me and my friends called the USS ( that's for short). This main attraction was a great time spender and I'm sure you won't need any kind of introduction of it from me. But really the attraction waiting line was really long and I'm sure you know that to. My personal favorite? The Transformers thingy. Seriously I forget the name. Oo almost forget to tell you that I also went to Vivo city. Don't ask what I bought. I didn't buy anything.

It's Universal!

Just a normal church

At Monday the nor so exciting part came to take place. School. What school? It's Anderson secondary school. As you all know I am from Indonesia not from Singapore so it was not that bad. We were treated as a guest not like someone else. So yeah, it's quite good being there and also the students there are very nice and exciting. Well school are over and we were very excited because we were SUPPOSED to visit Orchard. But in sudden there was a schedule change and everything kinda mess up. So from the modern and super expensive Orchard we move to Chinatown that is like everywhere in the world. Yes things are day cheaper there but I doubt they're quality. What was so good about Chinatown. Well the answer is the food. They're relatively cheaper and delicious. 

Don't ask why did i took this picture.

The next day we went to the famous Marina Bay or Garden by The Bay or whatever you want to call it. But if course we must go to school first. No explanation about the school part, or is a usual as ever.  The Garden by The Bay have some technical issue. Why? My camera went out of memory while I was recording the grand final moment at night. Stick a disaster indeed. So yeah,I'm not really a fan of something like that so while the other guy while say that it was very good I shots day that it was not good but not bad either. Technically it was light show at night. So now that you know that that's not the best moment them what it is. You can call me strange or what, but for me the best part was when new and my friends were playing on the top of the building. I forgot the name but it is not the bridge that connect the large flowery structure. That time I saw a couple of people taking pre-wedding picture. I even got a picture of them. Sshh! Don't tell them.

The field on top of the building.

Giant flower structure

The next day we... Go to school. That's it. I mean there's literally almost nothing at Bugis Junction for the most part (there was a lot of things there but I bought none). I actually bought a present for my friend in Anderson. And yeah that's it. I'm honest. Our at least that's what I remember.

Bugis Junction 

Thursday was the second final day in Singapore. And at last we went to Orchard. The best and most expensive place for shopping. About the place? Seriously. You don't need any introduction to it.  Oo yeah have I told you that I spent literally almost no money to buy a thing for me myself  (except food and drinks and also the present for my friend in Anderson  and also a gift for my family) well I finally spent most of my money here. What did I buy. Privacy&policy. Sorry but I won't tell you. And also the ice cream bread (I don't know the name) was very very delicious. Seriously I wanted more that time and actually I want more right now.

The last day in Singapore had finally come and have I told you about my dorm that I slept in. The plane took off at about 11 o'clock in the morning and we arrived at the airport at about 9 and finished checking in at about 10.20 so yeah there was not that much time to shop. But at the end I manage to buy some thing for my family like some chocolate and food. Cause... Why not? So the plane landed at... I forget about it. So long story short we land at the airport and finally came back to our beloved home. Some came home in a good condition 

It was not that messy! Trust me I already tidy it!
