From the name you can guess that Dewa Athena is event that the pasrticipants must fight until the end of the game. The class which join the game is 10th class and 11th class.

I would like to share my experience when i was playing for my class.

It’s Saturday but I don’t remember when it is. I was waiting for running with the other runners. I really can not relax and i always be like that whenever i prepare for run. Ghina the other runners and I, took some exercise. We were running for 25 meters and decided who will running first. In the end, I was the last runner for girl. I gave greetings to my oppenent which made me more relax and we were talking a moment before i see Ghina already running!!

I waa a bit shock and got my self in the position. Dimas, another runner was getting closer and give the stick to me and i run immidiately.

Alhamdulillah  we won the game on that competition. But on the next round, we lose the game. Yeah... there was a student but i forget his name, was running really fast! I saw it with my own eyes. But that ‘s alright. It just a game. And i enjoy every games which i played.

Beside i was the player, i was part of medic division. But i was not te only medic division, there were also anothers. I am really happy because i can do my job as PMR3.

ASIAN AFRICAN CONFERENCE: Harmony of Angklung

ASIAN AFRICAN CONFERENCE

 

I woke up at 05:20 am and took a bath fast because i have special scedule for this day. At 19 – 24th April, Asian African Conference was held in Bandung. 23th April, over 60 students of SMAN 3 Bandung and I join for contribute a event named “Harmony Angklung for the world” which 20.000 people will playing angklung. We began this day with gattering in our school and took a walk to Gor Siliwangi that not too far from our school. There were many peoples around the place. Teachers, folks, salers, and of course students dominated the path. We can see other teenagers from different schools with their outfit.

                The sky was bright and brought the morning light to the participants. Our feeling were same as the blue sky. We were getting close to the gate of the place which the even will be held. As time changed and more peoples join the event, we walked more slow, even we stoped many times.

                There were many photographers took pictures of the event around the street. Here are the picture of them.

Oh! There were some polices too! They guarded around so the event insya Allah runs well.

Mr. Doni and Miss Wiwin also guided us...

After a long time, finally we really close frome the gate but.. so many peoples wanted to enter the place! Then, we can came in and got many souvenirs! Some foods, Tea, T-shirt, and of course angklung.

It’s really hard to see another friends because too many people and use the same shirt which it from the committee. The sun also really bright and clear. We were use umbrella. After looking for the piece of us, we were gattering together again and playing angklung with all (?) participants. We playing some songs like “Halo-Halo Bandung”. After playing many times we took some break and we were collecting many trash which can exchange with book coupon. Every 10 trash we get 1 coupon.

After we playing the main song and got warm greetings from World Record Committee, we went back to school. But! Before that, Some of my friends and I which collected many trashes, exchanged all the trash with coupons.

Then, we (really) went back to school (again).
