So, I decided that I must in hurry to do the homework cause I'm afraid if I forgotten. At 07.00 p.m. I started to draw the picture. I choose My House as my title of my picture. When I start to draw, my hubby was going to pray at the mosque. About an hour, I've finish my picture and my hubby was finish his pray.

But...I haven't finish to give colour. So, when my hubby went home, I move out and going to the kitchen to tint my picture. When I enjoy with my homework, suddenly my hubby said," WOW...Wonderful!!!". I was shocked at that time and said," What?". Then he replay what he said that my picture is beautiful. I said,'' Really?". He replay," Maybe someday you can make a little exhibition for performing your picture". I said again," you must be joking.

Shiro VS Putih

There were about 6 bites in my left hand. Ouuuuccchhhhh......It's hurt so much when I washed my hands. I cried......:(. I don't know why Shiro do like that to me. This week two times they were fight.

After I put Shiro in his cage, I told to Shiro why he do that to me?. Poor Putih because his fur looks ugly. I love both of my cats. But....lately my attention more to Putih because he's just hurt by another cat. I don't mean to forget Shiro. I usually play with him too when there wasn't Putih. Because if I touch another cat, Putih jealous too. He will fight with another cat which already close to me. Maybe it's his characteristics as a Siamese cat.

My Hobby is reading a book

Yesterday went I was waiting my granny to check her health, I bring a novel. Actually it's a novel which increase our spirit especially our believe. I read "Ketika Cinta Bertasbih" by Habiburachman El Shirazy. The book told about young man called Khairul Azzam but he usually called by his friend with Azzam or Irul or Abdullah. He is studying at Al Azhar University in Cairo, Egypt. His father was died when he was in first grade at university. After his father was passed away, he didn't return to Indonesia but he worked in Egypt. He works as a cooker and he sold some TEMPE and meat balls. Everyday, he made those things and distribute to his customer in Egypt. He knew that he can't wait with his mother's money because he had 3 sisters which need more money than him. He never ashame with his job as long as it's right.

One day, when he had some order from Mr Ambassador's daughter whose called with Eliana, he met with Mr Ali. Mr Ali knew that Azzam like with Eliana but he was ashame to confess with her. So, Mr Ali talked to him if he want to find a wife he must listen with Mr Ali's said first before he decide to make a relation with Eliana. When Mr Ali still young, he ever married with a famous girl. But his marriage was not longer because when they lived in London, his wife have luxurious lifestyle which need a lot of money. Actually, Mr Ali's family not a poor family but because of his wife lifestyle was glamorous, soon or later his family's money was lost. His family was dumped him. But he more down he saw that his every night worked at night club as a bad woman. Every night, she was drop with different man. Then, he was not strong enough with that condition. So, he divorce with his wife.

After he divorce, he went back to Indonesia. He started again from the beginning. Until he found with a great ulema. He stayed in his teacher's house without paying anything. Day by day, he learned about Islam until he got renascence. Some day Mr Ali's teacher told to him, if he want married?. Mr Ali's said that he want married again if his future wife must be religious too. He doesn't want do the same fault again. The teacher's said that a woman is religious but she was a widow with two children. Mr Ali's said never mind as long as he afraid with Allah SWT and respect him.

This novel also said about struggle of Azzam, friendship, love, spiritual spirit, and many more. This novel was happy ending which is Azzam can be married with Anna. The woman that he saw when he return from buying some things and the woman that he loved very much but can't be his wife because his friend has already said to her. Some of the part of this novel makes me cried because it's very touching. This novel is going to be a film. Now, the crew and the author need a research in Cairo.

This book is contains with two chapters. In each chapters was told different place and situations. In chapter one said about the struggle of Azzam to face the world after his father passed away and also talked about Furqan( Azzam's friend whose already told to Anna's family to marry her) and other character such as Fadhil, Tiara, Cut Mala,etc. In chapter two, there are more interesting than chapter one. More conflict between Furqan and Anna, Azzam with his problems after he can't get Anna to find a wife, the family of Azzam, Zumrah's problems, etc.

I finished this book only in one day:). I like reading. That's why I wearing a glasses. Because if I was read a book, I was lay down in the bed. It was nice position. I read this book until 02.30 a.m when my husband already asleep. I don't like to wait the end of this book. It was suffering me:). It is an interesting books.

English Course at EF

Today, I went to EF. I went there with my driver after I took the number for checking a doctor this night. When I was there, Lisa one of my friend at EF has just playing internet. She asked me why I can understand with my teacher's speak. Then, she asked again, if I was at home what language that I used everyday?. I answered those question if I was at home, I used Indonesian and Javanese language and about my English that sounds great because I've tried to speak English at home with my family and I like reading. But, I felt that I'm not clever enough like Lisa's thought.

Next week I am going to have a final test :(. Fortunately, Mr Will my English Teacher want to share about subject which we must do in a final test beside that he promise us if next Wednesday and next Monday, he will do some review our lesson. That's nice to hear that because I've still don't understand with Passive Voice and Present Perfect Tense. It's very difficult to understand the grammar. I wish that I can pass the final exam cause I'm feel not confident with it :)

After course, we ate at small stall near EF. We bought fried chicken and some vegetable. When we waiting our dinner, we talked about the reason why my hubby was late to pick me up. This afternoon, my hubby went home to take his wallet that left at home. He arrived at home at 17.00, then he must hurry to take copying in Mataram. After that he went back to the office. When he prepared for going home, his boss called him to come to his boss's office because there was a call from Jakarta and it took a long time so that's why he came late to pick me up.

He said sorry to me if he came late to pick me up. Before I knew the reason, I was angry because I must wait him nearly an hour. After ate, we went home first because he felt stomaches. So, we went home first and then we went to HERMINA HOSPITAL at Pandanaran Street. But, when we arrived at the hospital, we miss our ordered. We must wait until 21.30 p.m. then the nurse called us. The doctor said that what's happened?, I said that 4 days ago, I've got bleeding when I had insemination program.

The doctor understand with my problems and he asked me to sit on special chair to check my problems cause he said that my dose is the small one. He wondered what happened to me. After he did an ultrasonography, my uterus was fine. I was also give my hubby's sperm test to my doctor. Mr Fadjar (My doctor) said that it need consult with Androlog. He gave me a letter to that doctor. In his letter said that there is a mistake with my therapy. So, he didn't do anything for this month. He just give me vitamins to make my body strong :).

Now, I must be patient and fate with my destiny. But, I won't give up. Amin ya rabbal'alamin. Once again, that make me strong is I've got support from my hubby and my mother of course. She told that Annissa Pohan (Mr President's daughter in law) is late also to have a baby. Now, she's pregnant. Their age of marriage is nearly same as me so I wasn't worried about it. That's my mother said. Thanks to Allah SWT that I received power from my family.

My Job as a Call Center Agent

This story was begin in the of December 2004. At that time I lived in Jakarta with my uncle's house. I tried to looking for a job at Jakarta. I thought if in Jakarta there were many opportunity to find a job. I sent many applications which wrote in the newspaper or from internet. While I was waiting for interview, I went to French and English course in Jakarta. I went to Central Cultural Francaise at Wijaya Street with my uncle's driver because I didn't know the way and I went to ILP at Panglima Polim Street. I don't want just to wait without do anything. Before I went to Jakarta, I went to Yogyakarta also looking for a job but I was fail.

If there is an interview, for the beginning because I new in Jakarta, my aunt give permit to use her driver to follow me. Sometimes, I using rent a car because I don't want to take benefit from my aunt's kindness. Sometimes, if not too far, I was using public transportation to reach the place. It teach me to stand alone and I'm proud of it :). Cos, I want to proof with my family that I was not weak as they thought. I've ever work in trading company at Exchange Building in Sudirman Street about 2 - 3 weeks because I don't have client. In that office, I must looking for a client by myself. At that time, I thought to have one client which have 100 millions was impossible so I quit from that job. Beside that, it's a high risk job. If I lost my client's money, I must change my client's money and I don't want do that because I don't want my family suffered.

Not long from I quit my last job, my uncle offer me to work in his office as a call center. He said that the job is a shift job. It's OK for me as long as not too risky for me and family. So, I'll take that job. I was call for interview in early of May, 2005. I went to Daan Mogot in West Jakarta with my aunt's driver because she doesn't want loose me if I went alone. She said that it's a dangerous place like Bronx in America. I obeyed her because she knew all over the place in Jakarta. My aunt's born in bigger in Jakarta. But, I don't want if my aunt's driver wait me because I remembered if he must pick my cousin in their school. So, I told to my aunt's driver to drop me in INDOSAT Daan Mogot. He asked me how I returned home ?. I said it's okay, I can ask the security in here the direction.

It's true.... The interview need a long time!!!. If I was stubborn, My cousins will went home with nobody and I don't want they were lost. Back to the story, They were about 20 - 30 people in there. They were from different university and different subject. I was the only one that cames from Central Java and from Diponegoro University, Semarang. I was proud of it ;). I got my interview at 14.00 p.m. and I didn't have lunch. Fortunately, the interviewer heard my pray :) so they prepare some food or snacks for the candidates. The interview contains of general question such as from where I heard this news, where was I born, psychological question such as how are your reaction if you face with the boring situations, how are I controlled if there are bossy client or customer, etc. They were asked me in English, so I explained my opinion also with English. After that I went home. Before I went home, I asked my husband(before he's my boyfriend) Yuwono Ratenha which bus I must take to return to my aunt's house. Unfortunately, he doesn't knew.

So, I asked the security in Daan Mogot, which bus that can take me to the bus stations in Blok M - South Jakarta. He explained to me if I want to go home, I must take a bus number 18 or 69. He explained to me if number 18 was regular bus and I must pay about 2000 rupiahs. If I'll take number 69 it's a bus with AC and I must pay 6000 rupiahs. At that time, there is a bus with number 18, then I ran into the bus. Before it, I said thank you to the security. Why I asked the direction to Blok M ? Because it's the only bus station that I knew and I ordinary use it if I have a date with my hubby :). At that time the bus was not crowded so I can choose the place. I sat down at the front.

When I arrived at my aunt's home, I called her and informed her if I already at her house. I don't want if she worried about me. She asked me about everything that asked in that interview. She was liked my second mother :). A months later when I nearly forgot and when I walked at Cilandak Town Square in South Jakarta, suddenly my phone rang. It's from unknown number. She told me that I was chosen as a candidate to fill position as a call center for the next step so I must come to Gatot Subroto Hospital in Salemba Raya Street for general check up. I must come to that hospital on Monday at 08.00 o'clock sharp. I said that I understood with she said. My aunt asked me from who ?, I answered it's from INDOSAT and she asked me to come on Monday for general check up. My aunt and my cousin said congratulations :). They're happy for me. I said thank you to my aunt that she already helped me and knew my struggle. I said Alhamdulillah to Allah SWT which help me to find a job.

I went to Gatot Subroto Hospital by bus. I must wait for a while, because at that time there are some general check up for army. I met with my friend that come to the interview in Daan Mogot. I introduced myself and we change our cell phone number. After I did my general check up, I came home. If I'm not forget, two days later, I went to KPPTI for general briefing. At that time, I thought, I was place in KPPTI but I miss it. I was place in Daan Mogot. About a week, I have some training about product knowledge of INDOSAT such as Mentari, Matrix. Not only product knowledge that they give. We must tandem with the senior one. It's really difficult at the first time for me. There is an interesting story when I had a training program. I followed a lottery prize from AQUA. The winner will given new beetle car. So, I interested to join it. Everyday, when I get my snack during training, I asked my friends to collect the title of the cup. They asked me what for ?, I answered if I followed a prize.

They with pleasure to help me to collect the tittle and give to me. Day by day, I collect and I sent to AQUA. Two months later, I've got news from my mother in Kudus, if I had a package from AQUA and one day after, AQUA called me and told me if I won one of their prize. I was happy for it :). Thanks Allah that kind to me. Back to story again, The first place that I've had was on Mentari. I was in a group and the team leader was called Mr Lukman Nurdin but he most popular with Buluk (It's from Betawi's word that means he was single but his age was old). He was strict and discipline because his group was the best agent group at that time. The member of Mr Lukman are Mira Asmarani, Dewi Masyitoh, Hendi, Sriyono, Miradona, Wiwik, Asla, me, Afianti, etc. In Mentari, I was only about 4-5 months after that I must move to IM3 because there will be regenerations and the service level is going down day by day.

I was surprise, because when I feel to close with the member of Mr Lukman, we must separate again. From Mr Lukman member that must move to IM3 are me, Afi, Miradonna, and Mbak Wiwik. The rest of that was moving to outbond and half of them move to FMC and 999. Before we move to IM3, we have a vacation for farewell party. We hang out to Dunia Fantasi at Ancol. We went with Mr Lukman's car. All of us were in his car and it's suits us. About 10 - 11 people are in Mr Lukman's car. Can't you imagine ?. We play at Dufan and we went from Dufan at 19.00 o'clock. We ate in Chicken Baked Gantari at Blok M. After ate, Mr Lukman drop me in to my aunt's house. It was unforgettable memory :) and it was fun. The next day, Me, Afi n Miradonna moved to IM3. We did some training again about IM3. It took about 3-4 days for training.

Once again, I must get a good member and fortunately, I was join with Afi again. My first team leader was Mr Didiet Nuryadie. He was more strict than Mr Lukman and the vice team leader was Dwi Lestari Rushartiningsih. She was my brother's friend. My brother ever told me that his friend in architect worked in INDOSAT but he forgot in what division. He told that her name was Dwi. I've just guess when I move to Mr Didiet's team, there was a name called Dwi. I tried to ask her when she come to my desk. I asked her if is it true that she was a girl of Anton ?. She called yes, it's true and she wondered how I knew the name of her boyfriend. I explained her that I have a brother which study in architect. His name is Anto. She was surprise at that time. She said to me how the small world :). I said yes, it's a small world. Mr Didiet's team are Mr Didiet (of course), Dwi Lestari R, Edwinna Rozanna, Afianti, Moh. Gani, Dian Setyarini, a man which I forgot the name (sorry) :). In IM3, I've already change for team leader three times and so with the member. After Mr Didiet come out because of married, my next team leader was Mr Bambang Sugiharto. He was friendly team leader but strict too because he knew that it was a best team. When Mr Bembi that's we called for Mr Bambang S as my team leader, the member of him are Ozi, Moh. Gani, Dian S, Wanda, Edwinna, Dwi L, Miradonna. The last before we moved to Matrix, my last team were lead by Dwi L which before she was my vice team leader. Because of her achievement, she became a team leader.

In the end of July 2006, I moved to Matrix. Again and again, I have in best team and best team leader. My leader in Matrix was Mr Herman but we called him with Herboy because he was single :). He was very strict person more strict than Mr Lukman, Mr Bembi and Dwi L as my leader. If we have fault, as soon as possible, he came to his member and told which was our fault. When I was in Matrix, my world like in a hell because of the situation is different than in Mentari and IM3. Our customer in Matrix more complicated smart. The member of Mr Herboy are Mr Herboy himself, Mr Abu Khair, Khrisna Nugraha, Irwan Apriyanto, Fitri, Sudi Hasnita, etc. Same as I was in IM3, in Matrix I've three until four time change team leader and member. The last time before we moved again to Starone, my team Leader was Titi Nurmala. She was friendly and not strict like Mr Herboy. Everyday in Matrix are disaster and I don't want go there again, amin.

I moved to Starone in the early of January, 2007. It was the best time to move, because after that in Daan Mogot got flood. All the member in Daan Mogot must go to KPPTI. Once again, I save with Allah's hands and moving division. My team leader in Starone was called Miss Riza. She was friendly but strict. In starone, the situations not dangerous as in Matrix :). In February, my supervisor actually asked my friend Linda to help 999 division, but when she goes there, there wasn't a place for her. So, she moved again to Starone. In the next day, My supervisor asked me if I want to move to 999?. I said yes. I've ever told to my friend that already exist but at that time, she moved to other division. In 999, my work more relax because it's just information such as football match, movie schedule, train schedule, etc. I was happy to move in 999. Thanks to Allah SWT that already gave me a nice place :). But, I was no longer in 999. I must follow my hubby to move to Semarang, back to my hometown again. Now, I was still searching a job :( but I knew that Allah SWT have another plan for me and I believe it:)

Delay a job like become completed the activity everyday. If this attitude has started since they were child so they usually do until they are adult. In each activity they must be delay their job. So then, until when this attitude must go on ?

Why We must delay?
In the Oxford Learning University, delay is an energy that make activity slow or late. Most of us must be ever to do this until this time. Delay duty or work that already given as if already cultured. Without we realize when we delayed our job, it means that we try to accumulate our activities for the next day. Automatically, it cut time which is very important for other activities. So many reason to tell to make the main job forgotten.
Lazy is one of factor, failure put important case as a top priority, commitment which is not clear with the job, less dedication with the activities that must do also environment pushing such as weather. It can be imagine if habit to postpone job not to stop, it must make a lot of lose up in everything. We can lost our time, lost our cost, and lost our energy.

How to Solve?
To postpone a job is a bad habit but we can solve it. Yes it was not easy to change our habit, if it happened since long time. There are several strategy to try to solve our bad habit, such as :

1. Planning, we need well plan if we want finish our job
2. Background and purpose, we understand background and purpose about a job. If the purpose is big, we must cut the purpose into a supporting purpose so it makes more clear and can be reach
3. Priority, if we want to do something big, we must have scale priority. It means that which one that we must to do first and which one that we can do after we finish our main job
4. Spare Time to identified what we postpone
5. If our difficult is about how to start, put aside special schedule in the diary so that we can do earlier

Insemination Program at Telogorejo

Today, I did insemination program at Telogorejo Hospital in Semarang. Before I went to the hospital, I called my aunt and I asked pray the best for me to do this. She's like my second mother when I was in Jakarta. She told me that I must be patient with all the things and she gave me some advice such as I must take a rest after this activity and my feet must be lay in a bed but it must add some pillow under my buttock. I said to her that I was very thankful that she gave me some advice and make me confident :).

Actually I want go to the hospital by car but I have been waiting my brother about one hour. When he arrived at home, I was not there. I've already went with Mr No by motorcycle. He send me an sms and asked why I didn't wait him?. I told to my brother that I was in a hurry because I don't want to be miss this opportunity. He didn't want to talk n meet me again after that. I went there at 09.30 a.m. and arrived at 09.40 a.m. When I arrived at the hospital, the nurse that I met on Monday was not there at the moment so I sit down and wait until she came. I was playing a game when suddenly the nurse called me. She asked me to wait for a moment because the needle was cold so it need a little time to be hot again.

At 10.30 a.m. the nurse called me again and she asked me to lay on the bed. She was also asked me to take off my pants because she put the injection on my thigh. OK... She told me that the needles was very thin and it feel likes bite by the ant :). When the needle came inside my thigh, first I didn't feel anything....but suddenly my thigh felt like bite by the ant. I will do this 4 times. Tomorrow I am going to the hospital again but I'm ready with it. I was happy cause my hubby called me after I arrived at home :). Slowly, he paid attention with me without I called him first :). Thank you for your attention to me :). It makes me strong :).

HOMESCHOOLING

Nowadays, homeschooling is growing very fast and more interested by people. Mass media likes newspaper, tabloid, etc even electrical media always announce about homeschooling. Some public figure and artists are choosing homeschooling as the way for their children for education. Many publication and news about homeschooling. Many question and curiosity about homeschooling which sometimes called home education or home - based learning. In Indonesian language, homeschooling called "sekolah rumah" . This is an official name that use by Department of National Education ( Depdiknas ) to called homeschooling. Beside "sekolah rumah", homeschooling sometimes called as "sekolah mandiri".

One of general explanations for homeschooling are educational model for children which family can choose and be responsible with their choice, also parents can educate their children at home for the basic of education. In homeschooling, parents must be active in their children education process. In means parents must active from determining direction, the aim of education, values that need to be growing, intelligence, and skill that going to be reach, curriculum, material for study, until method of learning also daily practicing for children. In family homeschooling, half of the process of learning - teaching usually lead by the parents. Especially for early steps (such as preschool and elementary school). In this step, material for learning is more simple and it can get from their parents. At the highest step, usually children from homeschooling can stand alone. They will find the solve to get the answer according to their needs and wishes. In this step, as a parent, usually more function as a mentor or facilitator.

To do education and enrichment, family of homeschooling also using all infrastructure and medium that have on society. The material that used can be free or paid. To learn, family of homeschooling can use facility that exist in real world likes facility for education (library, museum, research department), public facility (park, orphanage house, hospital), social facility (mall, exhibition, restaurant, fabric, rice field, plantation). Beside that family of homeschooling can use private teacher, tutor, course, etc. Internet and audio visual technologies is one of the media that usually used in family of homeschooling.

Homeschooling and School have differences, such as :

• At school, responsible for education will delegate from parent to the teacher and school. At homeschooling, responsible for education is fully in their parent's hand.
• At school, parents role and family is less contribution because education is going on by the school system and teachers. At homeschooling, parents role and children are important and determine education are going to success.
  
• Model of learning at school, system are establish but in homeschooling, needs commitment and creativity of parents to bring about homeschooling.
• System at school are standardized to fulfill children need as general meanwhile, system at homeschooling must be suits with the children need and family condition.
• Management at school are centered such as curriculum that design the same for all students. Management in homeschooling are decentralization depends on family of homeschooling.
• At school, schedule for studying have been decide and same for all students but at homeschooling, schedule for studying is flexible depends on agreement between parents and their children.

The strong at homeschooling :

• Customized, suits with children and family condition
• Giving more opportunity to stand alone and individual creativity which can't get in general school
• Can make children more potential without following the standard of time which mention at school
• Ready to face the real world because learning process depends on daily activity around the children
• Conformity between children's values and family
• Ability to make a relation with the parents and vertical socialization

• Fee for education can be adapt with the family financial

Weakness of Homeschooling :

• Needs commitment and high involvement from parents
• Have higher complexity
• Horizontal socialization is lowest
• There is a risk at ability in team work, organization, and leadership
• Protecting from parents can give side effect with inability to finish social situation and more complex problem that unpredictable

Reason why parents choose homeschooling for their children according to National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) in 1999 are :

1. Parents want to increase the quality of education for the children
2. Religious reason
3. Surroundings when children studying at school
4. Parents often moving or make a journey
5. Parents feel that safety and relationship at school is not good for children development
6. Parents want to be close with their children
7. Parents feel if the fee for good school is more expensive and not reach again
8. Children have special needs that can't be fulfill in general school
9. Parents have believe that the system that already exist can not support family values that hold
10. Parents feel to be called to educate their children

My Holiday in Kudus

Two days ago, I went home to Kudus because my hubby wasn't at home. He allowed me to go to Kudus. He taught if I was still in Semarang I left alone without him. Thanks to my lovely hubby that gave me permission to go there. My mother need me to accompany her to a restaurant to order some food for next week because she will have a big meeting that held by members of doctors in Kudus. She was a consumption section in that meeting. I went there by bus and alone but when I came at Kudus, my mother was pick me up at the bus station. The road from Semarang to Kudus was damage because of flood. Unfortunately, I used a wrong bus. I choose a bus that don't have AC inside so I felt hot :(. When I came to Kudus, I asked my mother to take me to the restaurant for drinking and eating because I ate bread on my breakfast :). I was eating at Mie Bandung & Es Teler in KH Wakhid Hasyim Street. It was my favorite restaurant since I was child. After eat, I went home and I kissed my father's hand and kissed his cheek.

My father asked me about my hubby. I answered that he went to Jakarta because his boss asked him to attend a meeting at his head office. Then, my father asked me again, how long will you be stayed in Kudus?, I explained him that I will be in Kudus until Saturday and I will be with him. He answered, okay. I was accompany him to have lunch in the living room. So, I accompanied him and I talked with him about everything that I have done in Semarang. At 14.30 p. m. I slept in my father's room and I woke up at 16.00 p.m. and my father asked me to follow him walking around with his wheel chair. I walked around with him for three times and he told me that there are a new baby boy that called Willy. He was 20 months and he was very clever if somebody asked about anything he can connecting a words.

My father also asked did I ever seen Molly and Snowy?. I said to him that I've already heard about Molly but I've never seen Snowy. Fortunately, when I finished my words, the dog was coming and my father said that is Snowy... It's a kind of Pekingese. It has thick hair, long body but tiny not big as Herder or Golden Retriever. My family were likes animals especially with cats and dogs :). Back to my story, after I saw Snowy, my father called a little boy. My father think that his name was Vian but when we saw closely it wasn't Vian. His name was Joffan. My father knew all the name's of children in my surrounding because he likes children very much :). We went home at 17.00 p.m. I came to our house and watching television. We ate dinner outside. Actually, my father wanted to eat fried rice but once again we must disappointed that food stall was close then we went to another food stall in central town. I'm happy that I can go home like two days ago because it can recharge my energy :) because my mother always asked me to wake up early and do jogging in the morning :)

Speaking Test at English First (EF)

Today, I've a speaking test at EF. The test was speak about tourism. I've been prepare it from this morning with practicing by making dialogged at home. I'm with my partner, her name was Jessica. She was on the second grade at Senior High School in Sedes Sapientiane, Semarang. She was great and I'm proud of her. When all of our friends preparing a test, both of us were talking. While we were talking, suddenly came a young lady into the class. Her name was Ellen. She asked me to move because she want close with Jessica but I refused it. I have a reason for it. I came early than her and I have the right for choosing a partner for dialogged :). It's about travel agent and customer. A travel agent was offer about a trip to Australia, Thailand and Brazil. She also must offer the customer to upgrade her trip to the best one such as have flight in business class, or sleep in a 4 - stars hotel. As a customer, we can choose which one was cheapest :). Both of us were practice only in a few minutes but all of my friends needs a long time to practice. I'm very thankful that I have partner like Jessica.

She told me that she can nervous if she practice all the time and so do I. At 07.00 p.m. the teacher asked us whether we were ready to start of test. We said that we weren't ready and the teacher was laugh ;). He asked us to mention a number that range between 1 to 10 and if we were right to guess the number that he was thought, we must begin first. Fortunately, we guess wrong so we didn't start first :). We begin after Mu'ripah and her partner. After we did a test, my teacher giving us a piece of paper. It's about horoscopes. We must fill the blank with any kind that in our head. There are 10 statements that we must fill in. We only fill one and then we gave to our friend to fill another statement until all statement was done.

After we finished to fill the form, we gave the paper to Mr Will and he read our horoscope in front of the class. We were laughing together when he read our horoscopes. Actually, after we did our speaking test, we have another test. It was listening test. But, we were naughty and asked our teacher, Mr Will to postpone it :). Thanks to Allah SWT cos we didn't two test in the same day.

Today, My Granny asked me to accompany her to take her pension's. Before I went to the bank, I asked my driver to go to my hubby's office. I was making corn fritter for him this morning and he likes it. When I arrived at his office, I saw Mr Bambang standing in front of the office. I thought he was waiting someone. I said to front office that I want to meet my hubby. Then she called my hubby with a phone and not too long, my lovely hubby was come out. I kissed my hubby's hand and give the corn fritter for him. My Hubby said thank you for the delivery :).

After that, I said goodbye that I want to accompany our granny to take her pension. At about half an hour, we arrived at the bank. I said to my granny to wait in a car with my driver because I'm afraid she wait too long inside and the situation inside as with I'm thinking. It was crowded. So, I came to the cashier and give my granny's letter to take pension. While I'm waiting the cashier announce the person, I took my cellular phone and start to play a game on my cell phone :).

At about fifteen minutes, the cashier called me and I stand up. I told to the cashier if my granny was in the car and he trusted. He gave me the receipt to sign it. I took that receipt and ran to my car. My granny signed that receipt. After that I took the money and I count it first before I left. In the car, my granny said to me to give my driver's salary and I took about 200,000 rupiahs for him. Then my granny said to me that she need money for saving. I gave her 20,000 rupiahs because right now my mother and my uncle said to me to manage her money. I said to her if she needs anything, she can tell me because we lived in the same house. We left the bank at 11.00 o'clock and we went to have lunch.

We went to DP Mall at Pemuda Street. We went to the food court and start to order food. My granny ordered fried rice and hot tea, and so with my driver. I ordered him same with my granny. After I payed the bill with my granny's money :), I went to Sushi and Donbouri to order sushi. I was taking Crunchy and Virgin Roll to eat at the place, for my brother, I ordered the same as me. After I ordered sushi, I remembered that I forgot to order for a drink. So, I went to Tong Tji corner to order Ice Jasmine Tea. After I paid the bill, I sat down and talk with my granny. About fifteen minutes, my granny and my driver's food was coming. I asked to the waitress that I need another plate because I knew that my granny can't eat that fried rice. It's too much for her. I wanted to divide the rice and I took home. When my granny's food is over, my food was coming.

My granny asked what was that ?. I said that it was sushi, do you want it ?. She told me that she want to try my sushi. I gave her half because I'm afraid that she doesn't like and it's true. After we finished to eat, we were went home. Before we went home, I came by to the exhibition to buy some books. When we arrived at home my brother wasn't coming home because he went to the mosque to pray. I gave the books to my sister in law and we talked for a while. After that, I went to my room to change my clothes and start to watch Carita de Angel (It's a film talked about a little rich girl that doesn't have a mother and only have a rich father and aunt).

Today, when I finished touch Putih my Siamese Cat, Sweety another old cat came to me too. She want to touch by me also :). But not too long, Putih ran to Sweety and scratch her. I tried to separate them but Putih doesn't want any other cat close with me and it's true. When I touched her, Putih very angry with her and he scratched her again until he didn't realize that his scratch makes my hand hurt. I was angry with him and tweak his ear. He ran.... and try to find his rival. I was screaming to him but he won't listened to me.....Oh my little jealous cat. I'm not surprise with that because I have one also a years ago. Its name is Panda. She also my jealous cat too. If I touched another cat first before her, she doesn't want to touch by me all day long :). According to the book that I've read that Siamese cat have special characteristic. He doesn't want to touch with his master if his master touch another cat first before him. But, I've feel sorry to my hubby cos he asked me not to touch again with a cat. For me, pet is like a toy and they can make us laugh because of they attitude :). Maybe my hubby want to protect me from toxoplasmosys (It's a kind of disease that cause by the feces of the pet). I'm sorry my hubby if I'm not obey your rules because I like it like you like to play a game at night.
