Hullo people!
Hereby I proudly declare that School Final Examination is officially done! And I might fucked them royally. Kinda. I'm sure I failed Economics, badly, along with Math. So yeah, fingers crossed that they didn't turned out being that bad.
Amen.
Anyways, one of the last thing to do in the series of SFE is doing a day social work in an assigned place, and S3 (my class) got Melati Kasih, a shelter for children to learn things, like crafts or something. Twas a lot of fun! I'm infatuated with their pearl of laughter and adorable smiles.
Yes, I have soft spot for nice, well-behaved kids.
No, there's no one having a birthday that day. But it looks like it, yeah? Especially with that happy birthday balloons, haha! Colorful is happy place, even though the balloons refused to stick in place for more than five minutes. (-__-)
A LOT OF CHILDREN.
It was crowded, like, realllyyy crowded. Especially when we are doing games.
And there's me teaching English. My team can't differ between mother and father in the beginning, but we finally aced that and won the game. Fuck Yeah Team 5!
It was a really tiring day, with a lot of shouting instruction and stuff. In the end of the session, after the kids all went home, Mrs. Darti, the caretaker of the shelter, have us gathered, and there's a small study session about Wayang.
SHRIEK. It's one of my favorite Indonesian crafts!
There isn't a lot of my friends excited about this thing. But I love it anyway!
He's a Dalang (wayang's puppet master), and he has 170 items of wayang, and his teacher is a great wayang maestro.
There's this story he told about wayang that left my friend a little freaked out. So, he learned about wayang in Solo (there are different wayangs in different areas, like Mangkunegaran, Pakualaman, and so on?) and he told us that there's a special wayang in Keraton Solo that's made from human skin (wayang's usually made from buffalo's skin) and that wayang has a curse. If you touched it, you'll die.
Thus, she freaked out.
Another thing is, wayang is realllyyy expensive. And that day, I fucking hold a fucking two million rupiahs Gunungan (a type of wayang used as background in the show) and damn that thing is SO COOL.
They have different pictures on each side.
I WANT ONEEE ;;_____;;
Sooo that's all for now. The only obstacle left is National Final Examination, which will be held on April 15-18. After that, a long day offs awaits! So excited for that already, whoop!
Dag!
