Trip To Dufan

A few weeks ago, my family and I went to Dufan. Dufan actually is Dunia Fantasy which mean The World Of Fantasy in English. We had a lot of fun there. We tried many of the rides and they were just soooo cooll! 

The first ride that we tried was called Ontang-Anting or you could say, Wave Swinger. It spins us around and lifts us up. It makes us feel like we are flying and floating. It was very funnn!!

The second ride that we went on was called Hysteria. The only ones that rode with me were just my 2 older cousins. My mum, auntie and my brother just waited outside. Out of nowhere, we were shot hight up in the air. At first I was soooo shook and screamed my lungs out. The ride wasn't that long but it was really fun!

My cousins and I then tried Baling Baling or you could say, The Propeller. It was just soooo extreme! I mean, you could just guess what the ride does by simply ready the name of the ride, ThE pRoPeLLeR- It spun us round and round but I really liked it, cuz it was just so amazing! 

We then went on a bunch of other rides and they were all fun, but not as extreme as the Propeller tho-

We went on something kinda like a tour but on boats or something. The first one we went on gave us a tour about different places around the world. The second one was actually an Ice Age tour or something like that. It was very cold inside it. What we didn't realize was that it had something kinda like a rollercoaster thingy and we Didn't know that because it wad just really dark. Nonetheless, it was sooo fun!!

We also went on Halilintar/Thunder. It was a rather extreme rollercoaster. We then printed a picture of us while screaming. That rollercoaster was really fun to go on!!

We then went on Arung Jeram and it was something kinda like rafting. It was vwry fun, but we all got soggy and wet! Lintang, my brother was the one that got wet the most! The queue to get on it was just so long, but it was worth it!

I had a lot of fun that day, and I hope that we can go there again! I love Dufan!

The Famous Five, Five Go On An Adventure

A few weeks back, my dad gave me a new book for my 13th birthday. It was called "The famous Five, Five Go On An Adventure".

So here's how the story went...
It all started when...

The were just chilling inside their house. Then, a visitor came to their house. It was Mrs. Layman to be specific. She told the five that she was going away, and hoped that the five would stay at her house where she lived with Wilfrid, her grandson. The five were happy to stay at her house and accompany Wilfrid.

They just didn't know that... Wilfrid was so annoying! He was very rude to the five, and basically everyone else. The five started getting used to it, and then Wilfried caught their attention while playing playing with the wild animals. He played with snakes, toads, wild rabbits and so on.

Then, they met a man named Lucas. He told the five and Wilfrid about the Whispering Island, with its hidden castle, WailingCliffs and hidden coves. The five were eager to go there and explore the island. And so, they set off to the island With a boat that they rented.

 When they were near the island, the tides were so strong, that they ended up being thrown on the the island. They ended up walking around the island, and they found the hidden castle. They didn't go in it yet, cuz they thought they should wait a day or two before going in there, not to mention the fact that their boat suddenly had disappeared. While they were sat down in a circle, their dog Timmy ran off. Not long after, they heard a loud "boom".

Timmy then emerged from the bushes. Then, they realised that Timmy had been shot. He came back with some meat that he probably took from a shed or something. Long story short, Wilfrid came to the rescue. The five were shook! Then, the five and Wilfrid went near the hidden castle and finally decided to go in. Once they went in, they saw tons of statues. Even some out of gold! They walked around the castle, but then, they got caught. 2 strong looking men came out of nowhere and just locked them up in a room. The five quickly found a way to escape, thanks to Anne. They quickly got out by going into one of the holes in the wall.
The five and Wilfrid later went back to the mainland, by using Wilfrid's boat. The five and Wilfrid became really close.

And that's it! I really liked that book! It was full of adventures and I'm livin' for it. The book was just amazing! Thank you dad for giving me that book for my birthday :)

Joker

A few weeks back, my family and I went to the cinemas to watch the Joker movie. I was really excited for this movie. All of my friends said that the movie was cool, and that made me want to watch the movie even more. 

The movie was about Joker, who once was a clown. The first scene that showed up was him holding a big yellow sign. He was using a clown outfit, probably to attract more customers. Then, some kids just came and snatched his yellow sign. He started to run after them and once he reached them, they started kicking and punching him. To be honest, I felt kinda bad for at this part. Joker was like soooo skinnnnyyyy tho- The next day, he showed up to the place where he usually meets with his friends. He told one of his friends about the incident. His friend then gave him a gun. He then took that gun everywhere he went. He went to the hospital to cheer up the kids there. Once he was jumping and dancing around, his gun fell out of his pocket. He then got fired and his friend that gave him that gun lied to his boss and said that he bought the gun from him. Long story short, he killed 3 guys on the subway, killed his mother and killed that friend of his that gave him the gun. He then made a friend. She apparently had a kid already. I guess that girl didn't know what he did. Then, the news was all about the clown killer. He had always wanted to be a comedian. He then finally got an opportunity to show up on a television show. Once he was there, he started making jokes about killing. He then shot the TV show host and everyone was dreaming their heads off. So yeah, after that, he was caught by the police. Once he was in the car, they kinda had an accident. A lot of people wore clown masks there. 2 of the guys came out and took Joker out of the car. Then like I guess people took joker as their king or something, idk.

So yeah, that was basically it. The movie was soooo cool. It had a lot of messages behind the whole movie. I'm sure my family liked the movie just as much as I did.

My 13th Birthday

Today is my Birthdayyy!! I woke up a bit late today cuz I kinda stayed up late while using my phone, hehe. Once I woke up, mum told me to brush my teeth, wash my face and to wear a nice dress. Once I did all of that, mum took out the cake and and lit the candles. We took a ton of photos together. I couldn't contain my  excitement and asked if I could open my presents. I was realllllllyyyy shook when I saw the presents! The first present that I opened up was a BTS hoodie. I was so shookkkkkkkk. Like, I've alwayssss wanted a BTS hoodie! ʕ•ᴥ•ʔ The second present was a Bluetooth microphone. I was legit so shook when I first saw that. The next present that I opened up ended being a wallet. I heard it's from my brother (but idk actually) anyways... Thank youu! Then my brother opened up one of my present! ಠ_ಠ he showed me what it was, and it was a perfume. I really liked the fragrance. Last but not least, the green coloured present. I actually opened it last cuz I thought it was a boring one, but it was legit the best one!1!1!1! I was literally shook when I found out I got a BTS Map Of The Soul: Persona Album! Like, I was so freaked out omg. I got V and J-Hope photocards, and found out that I got a bonus photocard. A poster also came with the album. Fyi, I got the 04 Version. Then my dad came and gave my one other present. It was a watch! It was a digital watch and the best thing was that it was water resistant! I honestly love it so much! Thank you dad!!!!!

Then when I went to school, one of my friends came up to me, and gave me a wrapped up present. I eagerly opened it and inside was an EXO Don't Mess Up My Tempo era (I think¿) Poster and a bunch of NCT Dream Lomo Cards. I was sooo happyyyy! 

Thank you all soooo Muchhh ಠ‿↼

Ice Skating


A few weeks back, my family and I went to a mall. 
So, inside the mall, there was an ice skating rink. I guess I've been staring at it for some time, until my dad asked if I wanted to go inside and try it. I agreed, cuz I actually did wanna try it, even if I've never tried it before, I mean, for experience, you know?  (。◕‿◕。) 

When me and my brother first got inside, we felt really cold, but it was a good cold. I slipped like 127 (see what I did there¿) times, hehe. My brother ended up using a helper (I guess?) That looked like a penguin. It helped him a lot, cuz before he used that, he slipped so many times. Me and my brother then went around the rink. I saw a lot of smaller kids just skating around, and honestly, I thought they were much better than me. I also made a friend while being inside the rink. I guess she was younger than me, and was really nice. We went around the rink together. Maybe if someone else saw us, they'd think that we had known each other wayyyyy before, hehe. I could also see my mum and dad recording us from the other side. 

Honestly speaking, it was a really fun experience. I ended up getting bruises on my knee 🙃. But I'd love to go back there, and I'm sure my brother would too!

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.
