Every Cloud Has A Silver Lining

Every Cloud Has A Silver Lining

Wednesday was my special day. It was the day that I found out that my school is very far from my house.
That day, I was really down. Tears kept rolling down on my cheeks. I hate to see myself so out of control. I decided to leave the place for I couldn't hold back the tears. That's also the reason why I didn't take Angkot. My eyes were red and swollen. I couldn't stand the way people look at me with these swollen red eyes.
It was almost 2 P.M. when I started to walk. The sun was very bright. My heart was still in great pain. I tried to distract myself for feeling really guilty towards someone by noticing every single little things. Something which I usually miss when I go to school using motorbike with my cousin.
While walking, suddenly I heard my cell phone rang. The number was unknown, yet I decided to answer it. I couldn't recognize it right away due to the noise of the traffic. When he started to mention his nickname which was made by me, I knew right away who he was. My face was glowing with happiness. It was him, the man who so far still means a lot to me.
His short phone call somehow managed to ease the wound that I had at that time. Although it didn't help cure it completely but it was like a breeze in the hot daylight. The call led me to the proverb "Every cloud has a silver lining" which I recited slowly.
The journey was quite taking my energy till I couldn't walk as fast as when I started. I even had to drag my feet to keep on walking. There's an old man in front of me. I kept walking behing him because I didn't have the energy to go ahead of him. But I guess he thought I was being polite, so he asked me to just go ahead of him. Geez...I had to collect all the energy left to walk a little faster.
My feet were really in great pain, yet I decided to keep on walking. You know, the pain and the fatigue really worked in distracting my wounded heart. Finally, I reached my place but not there yet. I still had to walk to get to my house. Ooh no, my feet were no longer be able to walk. I decided to take ojeg instead. I gave up!
Arriving at home, I put my feet inside the bucket filled with warm salty water. Gosh! it felt really great!

프라이팬 놀이/Frying Pan Game/BTS

Playing Frying Pan Game/BTS We played a new game called Frying pan game (프라이팬 놀이) with our Korean guests in our Korean Class. It was fun. It’s like catching the mouse game. We learn the Korean numbers in the same time.  Say, if your friend mentions your name and the number, you have to mention your name according to the number he/she mentions previously.  For example, if your friend says "Dana dul (2)", so you have to say your name twice, "Dana...Dana" and so on and so on. If you make a mistake, well, you get the punishment. The type of the punishment depends on the agreement of the players. They are many types, trust me. Just choose one.  This game was played on one of the TV programs in Korea hosted by Kang Ho Dong (강 호 동), Hye Ryong said. 재미 있네요. 우리 애들이 놀이를 좋아해요.  But hey! BTS too played this game on one of their TV shows.  You can check out the video  here  So far, we have learned many Korean games. Mostly we got...

Historical Visit

Historical Visit Besides visiting Baduy. We also visited the old Banten. Banten used to be the most popular kingdom. It is known till England. Once their representative visited England and they were welcomed exaggeratedly. Banten is famous because it had an international port for trading. People from many countries visited it. Unfortunately there’s disagreement between the father—Sultan Ageng Tirtayasa—and the son—Sultan Haji who collaborated with the Dutch—which lead to the destruction of the palace and the vanquishing the offspring of the royal family. They now spread everywhere. The remnant was unknown back then till recently on the initiative of one person there the digging was conducted. During the old regime, Old Banten was stated to be dead site. So, not like Borobudur temple, the Old Banten remained infamous. The reconstruction was done very slowly. You can see in my pictures there. Instead now, the site is famous for the people who believe in magic tricks. They wh...
