It's All About The Big Dreams of A Big Girl.......

I'm pretty sure that everybody in this world has lots of dreams, including me. I'm so glad that God gives me an ability to dream and also the ability to reach my dreams. That's very awesome! I'm also very happy when I get the time to share dreams with other people. That sounds very cool! So now friends, because I like to share my dreams with other people, in this occasion I'd like to tell you about my dreams in this posting. Do you want to know? Okay, Let's check these out.

I have so many dreams and I must confess that My dreams are very big (just like my body^_^). First, I want to tell you about my short term dream. My short term dream is about how to be a diligent student again, like I did when I was in Syantikara. I must confess that since I went from Syantikara and lived in my own house, I become a lazy person. I'm lazy to do my homework on time and lazy to study. Not only that, I'm also very lazy to clean my house. My mom doesn't like it. She often angry with my laziness. Because of that, I've tried to reflect my self and I've made a decision based on my reflection. From this moment, I am going to write all of the things that I have to do in my agenda and I must read my agenda everyday and do all of the things which are written in my agenda. I think, it can help me to be a diligent person again. And about to be diligent in cleaning my house, I will try to clean my house every Saturday or Sunday, like I did when I was in Syantikara. That's all about my short term dream.

Now, I will tell you about my middle term dreams. My first middle-term dream is about graduate from PBI on time. I don't want to study in this university for more than 4 years. Because of that, starting from now I am going to study more diligently. I am also going to be more active again when I'm learning in class. Iam going to give my best in paying attention on my lecturers when they are teaching. I am going to not absent in class, except if I'm sick or get big trouble.

My second middle term dream is about I am able to speak English fluently. To reach that dream, I've tried to speak English with my dad and also my friends in class. I've also tried to enrich my vocabularies for speaking with reading lots of English magazine and also watching English movie with English subtitle. I hope, I can keep do those things so I can speak English fluently.

Now, I'm going to tell you about my long term dreams. First, I am going to get my master degree in Europe or US. Yes, I want to study abroad to get my master degree. I like to choose Cambridge or Oxford as the university where I can get my master degree. Why I choose those universities? I choose those universities because they are so well-known and I think they are good for their literature. Not only that! Those universities are located in England and in my opinion, England is a beautiful country. In England, we can find lots of beautiful area and interesting public spots such as London Eye. When I'm studying in England I will get on The London Eye, because from London Eye we can see the beautiful scenery of London from the altitude.

Ok, I'll continue my story about my second long-term dream. My second long-term dream is I will be a kindergarten teacher in London or maybe in New York. Why kindergarten teacher? The one and only reason is because I love children very much. I like play and spend my time with them. Besides that, I will also try to be an announcer for BBC or VOA. I love broadcasting, so I decide to be an announcer when I'm studying abroad. Last, this is about my third long-term dream. I want to marry with a foreigner, and hopefully I can marry with my idol Craig David (the most popular R&B singer in UK). To reach that dream, I will stay and work in London if I graduate from my study. Why London? Just let you know friends, Craig David lives in London, so I choose that city to stay and hopefully I can meet him often. If I can't get Craig David to be my husband, I will try to reach another foreigner who has a similar face with Craig David, Will Smith, or young Michael Jackson ( when he was in dark skin). I like a tall and handsome dark guy because I think they are so cute and sensual ^_^ .Hmmm, It sounds so fabulous, isn't it?


Ok, friends! Those are about my dreams! Hopefully you and I can reach all of our dreams. Let's try to reach them! Keep spirit and trying!OK!Have a nice paragraph writing class and God bless us always.

Are you sure uncle?

On Last Saturday afternoon(the exact day was on Saturday before Easter), I was in boring condition. I had nothing to do. I just stayed in my room, played game in my computer, and listened to my mp3 player. Those activities still made me feel boring. Unfortunately, my mom and dad went to do their own business. I just stayed with my grandmother and my grandfather at home. Suddenly my 2 uncles and also their wives came to my house with their children. They wanted to spend week-end in Jogjakarta. After they took a break for awhile, they asked me to go with them to Malioboro. I was so happy when they asked me to go with them.

When we arrived at Malioboro, we decided to park our car in Inna Garuda Hotel and walked around Malioboro by feet. Suddenly, my youngest cousin cried because he wanted to walk around in Malioboro by andong. Because he always cried and cried, we decided to walk around in Malioboro by andong. We rented an andong and the price to rent an andong was about 50.000,00 rupiahs. With 50.000 rupiahs we could walk around in Malioboro by andong, including walked around in Sultan Palace's Area. At the beginning, my uncle who would pay for the Andong didn't agree with the price because it was too expensive, but because his child always cried, he finally agreed with the price.

When we got on the andong, one of my uncles decided to take a picture first before the andong walked. My aunts,my cousins, the other one of my uncles, and I (total 6 people) were in Andong first and my uncle took picture of us. After taking the picture, my uncle got on the andong. When he got on the andong, I asked him, "Uncle, are you sure to get on this Andong?". My uncle replied,"I'm sure,why?". I couldn't say anything when my uncle got on the andong. I just felt afraid. Why did I feel afraid? Hmm, just let you know friends, my uncle has weight more than 100 kilograms. Imagine! We were 7 people, and we got on the same andong. I'm 86 kilograms and my uncle is more than 100 kilograms.This situation got "worse", when I found that the andong's driver was so skinny. That was really made me felt afraid. I was so afraid if the andong would fall down and all of us would get injured.

During the trip, I just prayed and looked at people around our andong. I could see people's expression when they was looking at us. We were 7 people with 2 overweight people in the same andong. They were looked so amazed when they were looking at us. Moreover, some of them were laughed at us. They made me felt so ashamed too. The thing that made me felt so astonished was my uncles,my aunts, and also my cousins were looked so happy and they really enjoyed the trip. Only me who was looked so afraid.

I began to feel relax and enjoyed the trip when our andong walked around in Sultan Palace's area. Why could I feel so relax when our andong was walking around in this area? As you know, as long as I lived in Jogja, I never visited Sultan Palace's area, so when our andong came to this area I was happy because I could see what does Sultan's Palace look like and that was so interesting. Even though I began to feel relax, I still felt afraid if our andong passed unpaved road. I was afraid if suddenly the andong fell down. Fortunately, it didn't happen.

Finally, our andong came back to Malioboro safely. We were still alive after taking trip by the andong. After we arrived and got off from the andong, my uncle said this to me, "So Maris, We are still alive, aren't they? Hahahaha , how countrified (wong ndeso) you are !" After he said to me like that, I just smiled without said anything. I felt so ashamed after he said like that.

Hmmm, even though our trip by andong was so breathtaking, it was still fun, wasn't it? I'm still alive and I've decided to include this moment into my unforgettable experience's lists. Hahahaha, Have fun!
