Sumpah Pemuda

Indonesia sangat beragam. Ada banyak suku, bahasa daerah, agama, warna kulit, dan lainnya serba beragam. Maka dari itulah, hingga saat ini Sumpah Pemuda masih tetap berlaku selalu. Sebagai generasi bangsa, kita harus tetap bersatu padu. Kita harus bersatu menjunjung tanah air Indonesia. Kita harus bersatu sebagai bangsa Indonesia. Kita harus bersatu memelihara bahasa Indonesia. Dengan semangat Sumpah Pemuda inilah, semangat kita kian menggebu-gebu, meluap-luap. Perbedaan yang dimiliki oleh Bangsa Indonesia merupakan suatu bentuk anugerah dari Tuhan. Perbedaan ini bukan malah membuat kita merasa tersaingi, merasa dibenci, melainkan harus tetap dilestarikan dan tetap menghormati satu sama lain, serta menjaga kerukunan. Dalam salah satu penerapan sumpah pemuda, pemuda generasi Z dalam beberapa tahun ini banyak membawa nama Indonesia agar tetap harum di kancah internasional. Pemuda Generasi Z adalah pemuda pemuda yang akan membawa nama indonesia lebih jaya lagi. Generasi ...

Short story : Childhood in Malaysia

When I moved to Malaysia, i had no relatives there and my family had to adapt slowly. Since we dont really know Malaysia that well yet, my parents decide to put me in the kindergarten at our condominium. It was close, only a few floors below my level. It was Lil Beansprout Montessori. A chinese and english speaking kindergarten that i had to get used too. I often cried alot because i don't know both languages and it was strange to me, so my two year old brother had to accompany me so i wouldn't cry. But it was a good thing. I eventually started speaking and reading English books in no time A few stories I remember during kindergarten was the frequent amount of times I was sent to stand in the corner either because I was noisy or couldn't understand a subject. It was a strict system as I would say. You can't talk or make too much noise when you are playing, you have to finish and understand a subject, you can't drink while you eat. As a child those limitations were...

Broken promises

A little girl once asked, "Mommy, what is the biggest crime a human could commit?" The mother squated down to her daughter's level, fixiating her gaze into her daughter's eyes. The mother was only silent -probably thinking about every wrong doings humans has ever done- then gave a weak smile. "Being in debt." the mother finally answered. "Being in debt with unkept promises." the mother added, with a lump in her throat, she tried her best not to cry. Unfortunately, the little girl saw the sorrows i her mother's eyes and gave her mother a hug. "Don't cry mommy. I don't wanna see you cry because of daddy anymore." the young girl stifled a cry. They were broken. Their lives were torn apart by all the broken promises, which their "loved ones" made. The young girl was me, Rayne, im 17 years of age now. Me and my mom have left dad for almost 11 years now. Im glad that we left him because the memories of my dad was only ...

Alasan saya masuk SMAN 68 adalah.. First   of all, im not good at writing how i feel in Indonesian so here you go: reasons why i chose SMAN 68   To be completely honest, I don't really know why I chose SMAN 68. I was already accepted at a private school, so i didnt think much of getting into a national school. But my parents suggested I study hard for UNBK so maybe I can get into SMAN 68. I did study my best, got a pretty much good average score and got in.    I guess my first reason was because it was suggested my parents. It is a relatively good school which have excellent curriculum and extracurriculum performance. In 68 there are also quite alot of invitations you can receive to good universities like UI, ITB, UNPAD and so on. I want to become an electrical engineer and I hope by being in this school, studying hard, get good grades, have good attitude and follow school rules I will have the chance to receive an invitation to UI. I am having alot fun ...
