Making Flowers From Corn Husk
A week ago, my class was tasked to make a flower from corn husk. The thing is, we weren't taught how to. The teacher just told us to look at YouTube and follow the instructions. I don't know, I just feel like that was a weird thing.
I was kinda confused about... Everything. Then I asked my friend Vinka. She told me she was told to do the same thing, so we made the flowers together. I went to her house and we started making the flowers. We put the corn husk inside a pan and boiled it while putting some food colouring in it. Eventually, the corn husk absorbed the colour and it came out pretty well. We only did 2 colours, which was red and green.
We cut the big pieces of the corn husks and made it smaller. We then the petals one by one. We glued it together using a glue gun. Most people used a string/thread but we thought that it would just be more complicated. We used the green coloured corn husks and glued them just under the petals so the ugly part would be hidden. We bought fake leaves and glued them on the stem which was iron. We then covered the iron by using floral tape.
I was actually proud of my flowers. It was kinda easy to make. My flowers were kinda big but I didn't mind, it looks cool anyway
Bumi Manusia
Last week, my family and I went to the cinemas to watch 'Bumi Manusia'. The lead actor was Iqbaal Ramadhan. He used to be a member of Cowboy Junior, or CJR for short.
The movie lasted for 3 hours but it honestly wasn't that long, cuz I was so immersed in the movie.
~
The movie was set back to when Indonesia was still colonized.
One day, Minke (Iqbaal) and his friend went to someone's house. Once they arrived, they met someone by nthe name of Darsam. He guards their house. Once they exchanged Hellos with someone that lived in that house, they sat on the terrace. Then, a beautiful girl came out and had a conversation with Minke. She then allowed him to come inside the house and wander around. That girl was named Annelise Malema.
They ran to the backyard and to everywhere. Just then, Annelise tripped. Minke then helped her up... Then kissed her-
UWU
They had dinner together, and that's when Ann's father came in and insulted Minke and said how he was a monkey and other stuff. Then Nyai (Ann's mother) yelled at him to stop and go to his room.
They started getting closer to eachother. Ann was always so worried about Minke. That was how Minke ended up living with them. Minke's father, however didn't really like him living and being close to their family. But I guess he got used to it(?).
Minke and Ann got married and stuff, they were in a state of euphoria. But after that, disaster struck.
In a blink of an eye, Nyai got held up at court and Ann's father died of poisoning in a club. Then it was said that Nyai was innocent. But that wasn't it.
After that happened, it led to people not believing the fact that Minke and Annelise are married.
Long story short, Ann got sent to Netherlands while Minke and Nyai weren't even allowed to escort her on her way there. They closed the gates but still, some people got in, even if they had to kill the people guarding the gates. The ending brought tears to lots of people. Minke and Nyai could only watch their Annelise being taken away from them...

NGL, I may, OR may not have cried at the ending... Heh but when I see someone cry I just join in crying 🤣 it weirdddd.
We could learn so much from that movie. It just really cool. It has it's funny and sad parts.

MPLS/MOS
I'm in Junior High School now! School started on the 15th of July. The first three days we're MPLS/MOS (Masa Pengenalan Lingkungan Sekolah) which is basically where they tell you where everything is.
The teachers there we're so nice and they love to make jokes and tease the students. The OSIS members we're also so nice to everyone. They were like our teachers for the first 3 days.
First day
On the first day, we we're divided into groups. I was in a group called "Aloe Vera". I was in that group along with 3 more people from my primary school and I was really thankful for that. If they weren't in my group, I would look so lost tbh 🤣. Then all 250 other kids and I made a giant line. We then went all around the school and they would tell us where the girl's toilets are, they boy's toilets, the teacher's room and so on. I made some new friends that day. They're all so nice. They then taught us new songs. It was called "Mars SMP 18". Its a really catchy song and I really like it.
Second day
On the second day, it was when other students would perform acts, according to their own extracurricular. Some performed Pramuka, Taekwondo, Karate, Tari Saman and lots more. I had a lot of fun watching them perform.
After that, we were told to clean the school. We each took a plastic bottle and fill it up with water. Then we would water all the plants using that plastic bottle.
Third day
When the third day arrived, we all did something kinda like a welcome ceremony thingy. All 250 of us would sit on the carpet that was in the middle of the field. The ceremony lasted a good few hours. They even told us to sing the school's song. Good thing I memorized it, hehe. After teachers being called one by one and were told to introduce themselves, it was finally recess. I went to the canteen, which was obviously full of people wanting something to eat and drink. After recess, we were then told to make a line and we would kiss the teacher's hand. Here in Indonesia, it is a form of respect towards people that are older than you, so don't be shook if you see someone doing that! We would then high five with the OSIS members cuz we probably wouldn't be seeing as much.
Those 3 days were really fun, ngl! We got to know some parts of the school that we haven't seen before and make new friends. People there seem genuinely nice and I am very glad to be a part of that school.
I do really miss my friends from primary school, but we still chat with each other. I really hope we can still be friends and won't forget one another just because we now go to different schools.
I will always remember them 🖤

Annabelle Comes Home
Plot
All the drama started when Daniela came to their house. She gave Judy a pair of roller skates and told her to go outside with Mary Ellen to try them. Once they were outside, she started snooping and went into a room that had all of those cursed things and most importantly, Annabelle. She walked around and touched everything she saw. There were lots of coins, a monkey toy and other stuff. She then saw Annabelle, sitting on a rocking chair inside a glass box. She went closer...

Spider-Man Far From Home
Not long after, he could sense something wrong with the water. It soon built up and formed a giant looking water man(?). Then outta nowhere, Mysterio came and defeated that thing.
He scanned the bus and saw that MJ was sitting with Brad. He then went and sat at the back of the bus and decided to use the glasses that Tony gave him. It came with a note that said
"To the next Iron Man, I trust you. Say "EDITH". It stands for Even Dead I'm The Hero".
He used the glasses and could see what other people were seeing. He looked over to Ned and saw that he was in a conversation with his girlfriend. He then looked over to Brad and that's when Edith said, "is Brad a target?" He then said yes, not knowing what it would do. Then, he saw a bunch of droids coming and planning to blow up the bus. He held the wheel and drove them further away so they wouldn't be shot by the droids. He quickly told Edith to turn off all of the droids.
R.I.P Iron Man
I could tell Lintang really liked the movie, judging by the way his eyes shone up once we talked about Spider-Man. He loves Spider-Man so much. He has a ton of Spider-Man figurines.
