Story Telling - "The Prince and His Best Friends"

Once upon a time, there lived a kind young prince named Jonathan. He was loved and adored by his people. His two close friends are Peter Piper, the servant of the palace, and Franklin Greedy, the son of Aristocrat.

One day, The Prince, Peter Piper, and Franklin Greedy were walking through the forest. Suddenly, a group of bandits attacked the three boys near an old house. They entered the old house and blockaded the gate and doors. The three boys was trapped inside the house.

Franklin was very terrified and asked The Prince to give up immediately. But, Peter was not afraid. He urged and supported The Prince not to escape. The Prince decided not to surrender because he realized that he would become a tool for the bandits to ask for ransom to his father. But, Franklin was scared and wanted to make a deal. It made Peter suspicious about Franklin's behaviour. So, he quietly made up a plan for him and The Prince to escape.

Early at dawn, Franklin opened the front gate and unlocked the doors. The bandits entered the house in search for The Prince. When they came to the room where The Prince was supposed to be sleeping, no one was there. Suddenly, they heard a horse running outside the house and saw over the window that Peter Piper and The Prince riding away on one of the bandit's horse.

It turned out that Peter Piper sneaked out the house and waited in the yard, while The Prince was hiding behind the house. The bandits were very angry at Franklin and took him with them, while The Prince and Peter was safely going back to the Capital.

Moral value:
- Don't be greedy, be grateful for what you have
- Don't be selfish, think about others too
- Don't betray your friend

Amazing Place - "Singapore"

Hellooo!

There are so many amazing places in this world. You can try to make a list of it and I'm sure it will take at least two hours. Right now, I want to talk about one of amazing places in this world. I want to talk about a certain country that I like the most. It's Singapore.

Why Singapore? I will answer this with an essay so buckle your seatbelt everyone! (?)

Singapore is clean. Like, literally clean. You won't find a single garbage on the street, on the mall, on the tourist destinations, everywhere. Even a bubble gum. Even a single piece of paper. I don't know, is it because of the janitor who is patient enough to clean every corners of Singapore everytime or is it because the people themselves who don't litter. But, it's good. It makes everyone comfortable and it's pleasant to see.

The country is also very neat. Well, I've only been to Downtown area and everything is so well-organized. The buildings, the street lamps, the plants, the highways. I don't know about the situation of other areas, but I assume it's not so different from the Downtown area.

The tourist attractions! God, there are so so so many tourist destinations in Singapore. Some of awesome places are Marina Bay Sands, three luxurious buildings with some kind of boat on top of it; Universal Studios Singapore, a theme park where you can 'ride the movies'; Orchard Road, a place for shopaholics; Madame Tussaud's, the famous wax museum where you can meet celebrities, athletes, and famous people in the form of wax figures; Clarke Quay, where you can relax on a boat while seeing colorful buildings; Singapore Flyer, a super giant Ferris wheel. Those are places you surely don't wanna miss when you visit Singapore.

The scenery! For your info, I really, really, RRREEEAAALLLYYY like seeing skyscrapers with their lights on in the night. It calms me. Maybe that's why I like living in a city, not close to nature. And Singapore has many skyscrapers. In the night, they are so beautiful. Like this.



(it leaves me breathless it's so pretty just--- just leave me alone asdkflgjkl)

Especially in Marina Bay area because there are so many high buildings. It's so beautiful it's insane.

The transportation. Have you ever heard about SMRT? It's Singapore Mass Rapid Transit. It's a rapid transit system forming the major component of the railway system in Singapore, spanning the entire city-state. You can go anywhere within several minutes. You don't have to deal with traffic jam, damaged roads, and you can save the environment by reduce the use of motor vehicles. SMRT is very useful. How I wish Indonesia has MRT too, so we don't have to face the traffic jam everyday. The traffic jam in Indonesia is the worst, right. :( Maybe MRT can be the solution. Well, it's just my opinion anyway.

The last but not least, is the airport. CHANGI AIRPORT. ((THE)) CHANGI AIRPORT. An airport which doesn't look like an airport. It looks like a freaking mall. Everything is luxurious and comfy and fancy and all the good things in this world. If I was asked to stay in the airport rather than a hotel, I would love to. HAHAHA.

Okay, maybe that's all. I actually want to continue ranting about this but I have a lot of things to do. So... Bye! :)

Matswapati!

Hi! Long time no see! It has been a long time since I posted something here. I have been busy with freaking homeworks, never-ending homeworks! God, it’s driving me crazy.

Okay, let’s not talk about homeworks anymore because it will waste my time LOL. Our topic now is... MATSWAPATI!

 *throws confetti*

What is Matswapati? Is it a place’s name? Is it some kind of food? Well, NO. It’s a cultural festival that was held by SMAN 3 Bandung, which is my school. Actually, the event’s name was inspired by a puppet called Prabu Matswapati. It’s a cool name, right? :)

The event was held on Saturday, 27th September 2014. The purpose of the event is to introduce Sundanese culture and to make everyone loves their own culture. I worked for Matswapati in Decoration division. It was fun.

On Saturday morning, we joined a parade to invite everyone to come to Matswapati. We walked ‘around Indonesia’ started from Belitung street. We held a banner and sang. When we came back to Bali Field, people were everywhere.

At around 10 AM, the event was officially opened. There were so many performers, such as Wayang Golek Griharja, Saung Angklung Udjo, and many more. There were performers from our school too, such as KV3, LSS, T’sT, KPA, and MK. But, I didn’t watch all of the performances because I couldn’t stand in front of the stage for too long. For your info, it was sooooooooo hot! The sun was right above our heads. It was hot as hell and made me a little bit dizzy. So, I spent the time mostly in my class’ stand or in Foodfest, where foods are everywhere (YASSS IT WAS HEAVEN).

Then, I went to BIP with my friends because we were hungry. It was so easy to go in and out because I was the committee. All I had to do is flash the committee nametag. :)) In BIP, we ate at McDonald’s. At around 4 PM, we went back to Matswapati. It was getting late and Bali Field was very crowded with people. I met some of my old friends and I was really, really happy to see them. We took selfies. Lot of selfies.




(some of our selfies, look at those happy faces!)

We talked about many things. It felt like a reunion. After that, Barsena performed. He was so good. And finally... It's Glenn Fredly's time to perform! All people gathered in front of the stage, with phone, tablet, or camera in hand. Luckily, I stood at the centre near the stage. The view of the stage was great from this position. Not so long after, Glenn Fredly started to sing. He sang many songs and we sang along. I like how Glenn Fredly tried to communicate with the audience. He was so friendly to us, no awkwardness at all. It felt like we talked to a friend, not a celebrity. I really, really enjoyed his performance. I took some photos and recorded some videos. Take a look!




(Glenn Fredly OMGGG)

I forgot what time the event was ended, but it was almost midnight. So, I chose to sleepover at Azka's house. I felt really happy. I hope this kind of event become an annual event!

About My Friend

Hi thereee!

In this post I want to introduce you to this certain person who is crazy and funny and always makes me laugh.

Her name is Dilla.


(selfie, with our tired-exhausted-i-want-to-give-up-on-life faces. she's the one in the left, with her favorite pose)

Her full name is Dilla Fairuz Janitra. I often call her Dilol or Dilyeol (pronounced: Dilyol). This "Dilyeol" nickname is inspired by a certain guy who likes to ruin Dilla's life, guess who. She lives at Sukamiskin Street number 22, I've been to her house once to watch Korean drama. :))

She was born in Bandung, 25th June 1999 (I was born 22 days earlier LOL). She has a younger brother and a younger sister, I've met them once and they're so cuuute.

Her favorite food is rice with some pebbles. HAHAHA JUST KIDDING. We've been joking about it lately. :)) And oh my god I forgot to ask about her real favorite food. Okay, let's say her favorite food is rice.

She likes to drink mineral water (this time, it's real). Same with me! WE LIVE A HEALTHY LIFEEE~

Her hobby is listening to music. Same with me too! (dil we have a lot in common huh). Her dream is to be a good housewife. Good housewife. We laughed a lot when she said this.................

I really like talking to her. She's so funny and sometimes "polos". We like to joke around. :)

She has a blog too. Click here to check her blog!

That's all about Dilla. I have to go now. Bye!

About Me


Hi! My name is Viandita Shaquina Arlan. You can call me Dita or Viandita. My middle name has a meaning, but I don't know what it is.


(i'm the one in the left! and the one in the right, he's my friend. you can check his blog)

I live in a housing complex in Cigadung area. I won't tell you my full address because it's personal. People rarely know where Cigadung area is and I could only laugh. :))

I was born in Bukittinggi, 3rd June 1999. Yeah, I am a Minangese, so are my mother and my father. I'm 15 years old now, and two years left to be a 17 years old girl! :)

I have one younger brother. His name is Dellan. but his nickname is Dean. He's 7 years old now. Sometimes, he could be the most annoying person. But sometimes, he's cute too, the way he talks and the way he thinks.

I eat a loooooot. I could spend more than 50.000 rupiahs a day just for food. So maybe that's why I always run out of money. :((( My favorite foods are chicken, potato wedges, french fries, sausage, instant noodle, and potato chips (mostly junk food but who cares). I drink a lot too. I usually drink mineral water. I don't really like other drinks, such as soft drinks.

I... don't really have a hobby. Is playing handphone a hobby? -_-

As for now, I still don't know what my passion is. Is it sport, or art, or music, or what. Right now, I just want to focus on my studies because GOD WHY EVERYTHING BECOMES SO HARD IN SENIOR HIGH SCHOOL. I failed in all exams (except Civic Education exam BUT STILL). I have to learn how to prioritize things and manage my time better. I really really have to. :(

My dream is... to be success. Okay, it's obviously everyone's dream. But, I don't know, in the future I want to work at a television station. It looks cool.

Okay, so that's all about me. Bye!
