Christmas!

Merry Christmas everyone! Sorry I’m late to say this but I was very busy welcoming guests and I was busy celebrating with my family and also sending everyone messages for Christmas.

This Christmas (2015) is very different to other Christmas experiences I have had in Australia because since I’m in Indonesia, I can celebrate it with my extended family! It’s much better because I can celebrate it with people who actually believe that Jesus Christ was born to save us… no offence but most people who visited us on Christmas in Australia weren’t Christians most were Muslims. Now here, my entire family from my dad’s side is a Christian but in my mum’s family there are still muslims but we still celebrate with them and give them presents. I got a few presents this year, I got 2 shirts. One of the is a Hello Kitty shirt and the other is a shirt that matches the whole family and its like a family uniform. I also got a new pencil case and a bedsheet for my new room in my new house! And the bedsheet will also match with my curtains!! I also got a Tupperware drink bottle! I also got my grade 6 t-shirt from my old school in Australia!!! I have been waiting almost the whole year for this shirt and I finally got it in time for Christmas!! I also got chocolate from Australia thanks to my mum and dad’s friends from our old church!

The Holidays!

I'm so glad its the holidays now which also means Christmas is coming!!! Last night I slept over at my older cousin's house. I really like sleeping over here because to be honest its more comfortable and I can also see the fishes! Yesterday evening, my younger cousin, my brother and I went fishing. Well it was in out fish pond. It may sound weird but my aunty buys fishes and puts it in a pond and if they're bigger we will go fishing and she will buy new ones, its like a cycle. This morning my mum cooked the fishes and it was delicious... I don't know why my brother said it tastes like fish food though... it tastes so good!! I will go home after this but on Christmas I will come to my cousin's house again to celebrate it!!

Reports!

Yesterday, I  just got my semester report at school! So yesterday I went to school with my family to get my report. Actually, its not compulsory for the students to come even though the parents have to, but I wanted to because I was really curious about my scores so thats why I wanted to join.
My scores are pretty great, none of them were "red" scores (which means below average). Shockingly  my Maths were 81.... For the daily tests I got 43, 54 and really bad scores but the final score was 81!!!!! All my other scores were great too! I also got my scores for the IQ test I did earlier in the semester and my IQ is 118!! 118 means thats its above average which is pretty cool, I actually only need two more to be in the SUPERIOR level. My friend/classmate Michelle got 127 and she is, I'm pretty sure, the 3rd smartest in my class she is a total genius!! The IQ test is pretty fun actually because of many reasons that I can't explain. Its like a test that you don't have to study for because you don't really know what questions will come up. So yeah...
My highest one was English and I got 97... okay not the best of course but at least its not around 80!
Overall, I think I did pretty well this semester and I hope the next semester will be better and also more fun! Hopefully my grades/scores are higher (AMEN) and I can learn and study more!

UAS (Final Exam) and the Art Festival!

Two weeks ago, I just had my finals! It was a pretty tough week but everything went well. For the whole week, I wasnt allowed to play on my phone, the iPad and my laptop too. For the whole week I had to focus and study on all the exams. So everyday there are 2 exams. Here's a list

Monday: On Monday, I had Indonesian Language and Civics

Tuesday: On Tuesday, I had Maths and Javanese Language

Wednesday: On Wednesday, I had Science and Mandarin Language

Thursday: On Thursday, I had English and Religion

Friday: Last but not least, on Friday, I had Social Science and Culinary Arts

For Monday to Thursday, I went home from school at 10am and on Friday I went home at 9.30am

Now I have finished my Final Exams and I'm pretty glad. I haven't had the scores yet but I heard my friends say I've got the highest score for Religion with two other people and we've got 99! Almost a perfect score!

So a week after the Final Exams, last week, our school had a Student Art Festival for the Middle School! The Art Festival was on Thursday and Friday and to me, my class is very lucky because our performance is on Friday and we are the last class to perform! I performed as the MC, I played the violin, I danced to a Korean song called Just Right by Got7 with my friends and I sang with the whole class! (And I also became a tree for the drama... kind of...). We have prepared it for so long and it was really successful. Even though my class was a little unorganised this time but we did it at the end :D. I really hope another Student Art Festival will happen next year!

Grade 7!

On the 27th of July I went to my new school for the very first time to have something called LOS. LOS is basically the first week at school without studying and you get to know your new classmates and do activities. We got a school tour and we had some small class competitions. It was very fun! School here in Indonesia is so different compared to Australia because in here we have a lot of homework and tests that we have to study for.

In here I now have many friends and I think they are so awesome! One thing that is different about my friends in here and my friends in Australia is that when I tease my friends in here, they don't get mad and they don't take it seriously which is good because I like teasing people anyway hahahah!

A few weeks ago I had my UTS which is Mid Semester Exam and I have to do all the subjects at school. The average minimum is 75 so basically on almost all subjects I have to get 75 or more.
Thankfully I only got I subject that was below 75 which was Mandarin. To be honest I don't really like Mandarin because I have never learnt it, its very hard and also I don't think its important for the future (no offence). My highest score is 100 on Christian Religion! Yay! I got 99 in English etc. I don't remember all of my scores but those were the best ones... :D

Anyway, school is so great, its so different compared to school in Australia and even though it is way more challenging in here, I'm going to try my best :D woohoo!

Safari Park!! (Taman Safari Indonesia)

So on Sunday, I WENT TO THE SAFARI PARK!!! It was soooooo cool! Let me tell you all about it ⬇

So when we arrived we went on the Safari Bus and went to the "Safari" thingy. We saw the animals up close (still inside the bus of course) and there were "categories" about African Animals, Asian et cetera...

Next, we went to the Elephant Show. I thought it was a really boring EDUCATIONAL show like the ones in Australia which gets people leaving before a minute, but actually the show was AWESOME! It was like a DRAMA thing and even the Elephants were involved. I don't know how to explain it but I can only say that the elephants sticked to the story and script.
After the show we also got to feed the elephants and also one of the elephants could paint and she painted a really awesome tree and she painted it on a shirt. The shirts were actually for sale and I decided to buy one for 70.000 RP with my own money. It was a blue shirt with a painting of a tree) painted by the elephant of course) at the back!

After that, my brother, my cousin and I went on some rides... it was really cool!

Then, we went to the Seal Show and it was pirate themed. Not as GREAT as the elephant show but it was pretty interesting indeed.

Me and a few other members of my family also did a paintball gun fight/war... it was really cool but also really scary because the speed of it is like a bullet except it won't kill you because it's only paint. At least for me, I didn't get shot once even though I was the youngest *applause* *claps* THANK YOU THANK YOU!!! Everyone was older than 20 except me and everyone else got shot! And don't under estimate MY shooting, I shot my cousin in the hand! *more applause* *more claps* THANK YOU THANK YOU. I'm pretty sure I also shot my cousin's girlfriend and uncle... *EVEN MORE APPLAUSE*

-I'm sorry if I may have missed a FEW things-

Then we watched a show called Journey to the Temple of Terror and it was SO magnificent!! They had water explosions and people at the front got wet (including me, heheh) and also there was fire explosions too and real awesome stunts! The story was kinda similar to the Indiana Jones movies but that was fake stunts and edited, this is all LIVE AND REAL!!!!!!!!

Dumb Ways To Die

I don't know why I have decided to write about this but... well, Dumb Ways to Die is a game about (obviously) dumb ways to die. The makers/creators of the game are actually from Melbourne because basically Dumb Ways To Die is a message to be safe around trains, and the creators are from Metro which is pretty much the public transport in Melbourne!

So in the game you try to save yourself with the "dilemmas" and you only get 3 lives. Once you save a life, you get points and then you continue to the next "dilemma".

The animation is really really cute and also the ways to die are cute and creative. Some of the dilemmas/problems are your head is on fire, you poke a stick at a grizzly bear, you try to get your balloon but then you get hit by a train... (there are the gifs)

Metro made this game to share awareness that you can die around trains. Yes, there are other problems that aren't train related but there are some specifically about trains. Even though this is from Melbourne, this is now worldwide!!

If you'd like to download the game, just search up Dumb Ways to Die on the App Store of Google Play and you should get it, its free!

Recently, Metro (the public transport in Melbourne) released another game Dumb Ways to Die 2! It is pretty different to the first one because this new game has different challenges!

My Grandpa

So recently, my grandpa went to hospital... On Monday (i think), I had to help him go to the bathroom and brush his teeth. But then he was kind of trembling and stuff. And then he asked me to get my dad to help. And then my grandpa was unconscious and he has to breathe from the oxygen tank (yes, we have an emergency oxygen tank for my grandpa). And then my grandpa went to hospital...

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

So 2 days ago in the afternoon, my grandpa went out of hospital, WOO!!! But at 2am in the morning, my grandpa was vomiting and stuff. Since I slept the night with my grandpa, I had to move to where I usually sleep which is my family's bedroom. And then in the morning, my grandpa was unconscious and had to use the oxygen tank again and my grandpa couldn't move his right side of his body...

Right now, my grandpa is still in the hospital and he can't really talk, well he can, but its not clear and it sounds like my grandpa is mumbling. At least last night at around 8 or 9 o'clock, we got good news that my grandpa could move his right hand.

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Right now, I'm just praying so that my grandpa could come home again. Please pray for him because he is still in critical condition. And you obviously love your own grandpas and I love my grandpa too. But I know that God will help and be with my grandpa ◠‿◠
