Matswapati

Matswapati is an event that SMAN 3 Bandung held to maintain our rich and original culture of Indonesia, especially West Java. It was called culture festival or “ Festival Budaya “ in Indonesian. This event held once a year. All SMAN 3 Bandung students participated in this big event.

I started the day with practicing our performance because on 2 o’clock we were going to perform a cabaret. We practiced for 4 days to make a great show. We really put all of our effort to this event because this event will be watched by people from all around Bandung, not only SMAN 3.

Finally, we have finished the show. I can say it was a big success because our coach was happy with the result and proud of us. At first i felt my heart beat really fast, but when you actually acting on the stage, my heart beat normally again.

After the show, i went to the food bazaar and bought mojito. It was fresh and cold and nice. I talked about everything with my friends there and have a lot of fun. In the afternoon, the performers and audience increase. The people started to crowded in front of the stage and stand still there waiting for the guest star, Glenn Fredly.

At the end of the day, we were having a great time and the performance was so great. Not only the singer , but also the other musician. I really love the way they play music bacause they play music happily and that made me really enjoy  the songs and forget about anything else. 

Bullying

Bullying is unwanted, aggressive behavior among school aged children that involves a real or perceived power imbalance. The behavior is repeated, or has the potential to be repeated, over time. This can be found everywhere, especially at school. We spend most of our lives at school, and sometimes we don’t notice that there are bullies around us.

Bully is a serious problem. You should care about other people around you. Cause sometimes when you care, you can save lives. Bully can cause a mental disorder. It can cause a stress or depression, and finally can cause a suicide to some type of person.

Bully doesn’t only happened at school, but at home as well. Siblings can be a bullies to, and that will affect more compared to bullies at school because we spend more time at home than at school.

We can fight bully by talk to a parent, teacher, or another adult you trust. Adults need to know when bad things happen so they can help. We also have to be kind to the kid being bullied. Show them that you care by trying to include them. Sit with them at lunch or on the bus, talk to them at school, or invite them to do something. Just hanging out with them will help them know they aren’t alone.

Video Conference 2

I was at the Listen’s event when the other was doing the conference. Every Friday we have an event from Listen. And this year, the 11th graders are the one who set everything for this event. So i can’t just let the others do this alone. I attend the event from 11.30am until the event ended on about 3 o’clock. Then after that, we have evaluation about that day’s event. On that day, we were talking about the theme we would use for 1 month. After that, i just realized that it was 3.15 already. And i heard that if the class is doing a VC, don’t be late or you can’t attend the class. So i decided to didn’t take the class because of i was late. 

Video Conference 1

When our english class was doing a video confrence, i was doing my physics final task. The other classmates submitted the task in the physics study hour, but my task wasn’t ready at that time. So i decided to finish my task after school. When i was working at my task, suddenly someone told me to leave the class because he wanted to clean the class. I walked to the library and unfortunately, there was someone using the power source. My laptop can’t run without power source. And then i thought the best way to finish my task is to go to someone else’s class and i chose to go to XI Science 3. It was only about 5 minutes i sat there, then someone asked me to leave the class again. I was confused. And i checked the other class and found one of my friend was sitting in XI Science 1. I asked his permission to use the class and he said i can use the class. And finally i finished the task. When i was going to print out the task, i rememberes, that i didn’t bring flash disk to transfer the file. Luckily one of my friend borrowed me his flash disk. I went to the place where i ussualy print my tasks, and when i tried to open the file,it was broken, i couldn’t open the fila and that made me panic. I rushed back to school and search different flash disk to borrow. After i found another flash disk, i ran back to the print store and opened my file. I printed the task and finally put it to the teacher’s desk. When i checked the time, the english class has finished so i couldn’t be present at that time.

Bakti Desa : Day 1

Today is the first day of Bakdes. I supposed to go to school at 6 am but because i woke up late, i finally arrived at 6.40. Luckily, the others didn’t leave me. I joined the 13th public transportation. I thought i was the only girl in that car, but there were Indri and Wayda.

The journey to the village is so much fun. We sang together to the song that our driver play. It was funny because the song is ‘dangdut’ songs or old songs. Some of our friends slept for a while, until we arrive at the ‘Balai Desa’.

In Balai Desa, i sat outside because i thought the chairs inside ‘Balai Desa’ weren’t for the students. I was so bored while listening to the speech because the speech is spoken with Sundanese language and i don’t understand Sundanese.

I took some pictures at Balai Desa and had a walk with my friend, Grace. After we had a walk, we went to the dining room to take our food because we were so hungry. The line is so long. I queued in that line about 15-20 minutes. After we ate, at about 12 o’clock, we directly went to our house there. I was placed with Athaya, Elvina, and Fariza. We lived at Mr. Abdul’s house.

Mr. Abdul is a farmer . But we couldn’t go to work with him because usually he go to work for 3 days and 2 nights. It was impossible to us to come with him, even when we wanted to. Luckily, Mrs. Abdul is working too. She works at the field near our house. We were very excited to go to work tomorrow morning.

In the afternoon, we went to the bathroom, which was outside the house. People can easily look inside the bathroom, and that made me a little bit worry about my business in the bathroom. After we checked the bathroom, we went to carrot field with the other classmate. And we took pictures of us and ourself with a great view.

Finally, in the end of the day, we ate with Mr.Abdul’s family. It was delicious! And after we ate, we go to sleep.

Inspiring Person

Rowan Sebastian Atkinson, CBE (born 6 January 1955) is an English actor, comedian, and screenwriter who is best known for his work on the sitcoms Mr. Bean and Blackadder. Atkinson first came to prominence in the sketch comedy show Not the Nine O'Clock News (1979–82). He has been listed in The Observer as one of the 50 funniest actors in British comedy  and amongst the top 50 comedians ever, in a 2005 poll of fellow comedians. He has also had cinematic success with his performances in the Mr. Bean movie adaptations Bean and Mr. Bean's Holiday and in Johnny English and its sequel Johnny English Reborn.

Atkinson was brought up Anglican, and was educated at Durham Choristers School, St. Bees School, and Newcastle University, where he received a degree in Electrical Engineering. In 1975, he continued for the degree of M.Sc. in Electrical Engineering at The Queen's College, Oxford. First winning national attention in the Oxford Revue at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe in August 1976,[13] he had already written and performed early sketches for shows in Oxford by the Etceteras – the revue group of the Experimental Theatre Club (ETC) and for the Oxford University Dramatic Society (OUDS), meeting writer Richard Curtis and composer Howard Goodall, with whom he would continue to collaborate during his career.

After university, Atkinson did a one-off pilot for London Weekend Television in 1979 called Canned Laughter. Atkinson then went on to do Not the Nine O'Clock News for the BBC. The success of Not the Nine O'Clock News led to him taking the lead role in the medieval sitcom The Black Adder (1983), which he also co-wrote with Richard Curtis. Atkinson's other creation, the hapless Mr. Bean, first appeared on New Year's Day in 1990 in a half-hour special for Thames Television. The character of Mr. Bean has been likened to a modern-day Buster Keaton

Atkinson's film career began with a supporting part in the 'unofficial' James Bond movie Never Say Never Again (1983) and a leading role in Dead on Time (also 1983) with Nigel Hawthorne. He was in the 1988 Oscar-winning short film The Appointments of Dennis Jennings. In addition to his supporting roles, Atkinson has also had success as a leading man. His television character Mr. Bean debuted on the big screen with Bean (1997) to international success. A sequel, Mr. Bean's Holiday (2007) also became an international success. He has also starred in the James Bond parody Johnny English (2003) and its sequel, Johnny English Reborn (2011).

Best known for his use of physical comedy in his Mr. Bean persona, Atkinson's other characters rely more heavily on language. Atkinson often plays authority figures (especially priests or vicars) speaking absurd lines with a completely deadpan delivery.

One of his better-known comic devices is over-articulation of the "B" sound, such as his pronunciation of "Bob" in the Blackadder II episode "Bells". Atkinson suffers from a stammer,[28] and the over-articulation is a technique to overcome problematic consonants.

Atkinson's often visually based style, which has been compared to that of Buster Keaton,[21] sets him apart from most modern television and film comics, who rely heavily on dialogue, as well as stand-up comedy which is mostly based on monologues. This talent for visual comedy has led to Atkinson being called "the man with the rubber face": comedic reference was made to this in an episode of Blackadder the Third ("Sense and Senility"). 

Atkinson was appointed Commander of the Order of the British Empire in the 2013 Birthday Honours for services to drama and charity.

He won TV Prize for the category Best Foreign TV Personality - Male (Basta utlandska man) in 1994, 1996, and 1998. He also won BAFTA TV Award for the category Best Light Entertainment Performance for Blackadder Goes Forth (1989) in 1990 and Best Light Entertainment Performance for Not the Nine O'Clock News (1979) in 1981. And he also won Nickelodeon Kids' Choice Award UK for the category Funniest Person . He got 13 other nominees too. He is a legend in the world of actor and comedian.

My Holiday

My last holiday was great. I celebrated Christmas with my friends and family. First I celebrated with my friends in GKJ in Merdeka Street. There we performed a drama story about our story in Senior High School 3. People were appreciated it and I was very happy. I put on some songs in the drama so it wouldn’t be so boring. And I think it worked.

Then in 25^th December, I went to my family’s house in Bekasi. I was sick in that day, well not really bad but I wasn’t feel so good that day. Usually I eat a lot especially for cake, but I just ate some cakes and then just slept. I felt so bored because there was no one in my age. Luckily I brought comics.

After that, I just relaxed in my house. I watched a lot that I forgot to eat. I watched Running Man, Batman, Despicable Me, etc. it was fun because I love to watch movies! Especially comedy and action movies.

And on new year’s eve , I went to Cilacap to my family’s house again. There we prayed and sang together. That’s a tradition in my family. We gathered and then sharing about anything related to family like advices or wishes.  On the next day we went to the beach and saw the Nusakambangan, a jail with high level of security in Indonesia.

I enjoyed my holiday because  I can relaxed, even just for a while. I can watch movies all day long and woke up really late. And there was so much things I want to do but I couldn’t because there was no time. I hope my holiday last longer.
