well i wanna tell a short story about my friends from melbourne ,australia that came to my school on an exchange student program.Her name is Erin alison mei-ying smart .So long right ?but you can call her erin for short.She came to my school SMA Negeri 1 Yogyakarta about 3 months ago ,for exactly at the end of december until the early of january.She stayed in Yogyakarta,Indonesia for 6 weeks and stayed at my friend's house named rizka islami .Rizka islami is my classmate and because of that reason erin was placed in our class, X5 :) .First time i saw her i felt like amazed because she is really tall and has superwhite skin .At first sight i thought that she was a chinnese .And actually she has chinnese blood from her mom .Her mom was from singapore and her dad was from australia ,cool right ? At my first met with her , we had a nice conversation.We talked about our hobbies,her school ,her family ,her activities in australia ,and many interesting more .well Her hobby are shopping, travelling,and swimming .She told that she have been going abroad for many times .She have visited China,Singapore,Thailand,Malaysia ,and what more ? i just can't remember it :p .That's supercool ,i'm envy haha.She thought that the most interesting place she have visited was China .Do u know why she chose china? anyway because in China there are a lot of shopping places so she could go shopping whenever she wants lol .She really loves shopping .She told that she go shopping with her friends in Australia for about twice a week .WOW lol . We also talked about our school .Her school name is Avilla College that situated in melbourne australia.She told that her school is bigger than my school and the students are fewer than the students in my school . In Australia school starts on 9 a.m and over in 3 p.m .aaaaaaa i just wanna like that ! it will be fun if Indonesia apply that haha .There are 8 subjects (only) that they learned .And you know what? more higher your grade , the subject that you taken will be fewer .The other nice ones is you feel free to choose the subjects just depend on your wants. That's superfun !
Erin join drama in her school ,just like me :) .She also join balley there ,awesome :) .Everything that she told me that time just made me more curious to know more about her personality ,about her school and about her country . umm, i asked her what was she think about indonesia ,especially yogyakarta .Because at that time she just briefly in Yogyakarta,she told that Yogyakarta was so busy if compared with melbourne . yeaah , it's might be true, but at that time i also thought just like " have u ever seen Jakarta? Jakarta is more more more more busy than Yogyakarta lol. She told that the atmosphere in Australia was uncertain ,sometimes the athmosphere at daylight was so hot and dry but at night was freezing cold.
We also talked about our family .She has a little brother .Just a moment after heard that i felt so excited ,do you know why ? i really excited when i seeing foreigner guys or in indonesia you call it BULE .i just said to my self "what?!! she has a brother ? i wanna asked her to introduce me to his brother ! " pretty weird right ? lol . And actually her brother was a ten-year-old brother .hahah
So many things we talked about and i just can't remember all of it :p
Well , the first time she came in my class ,she looked like bored .but as the days passed she looked happy and enjoyed the time nicely with the students in my school .She said that she started to loves my school ,yogyakarta,and indonesia .She told that there are many things in Indonesia that she couldn't found in her country. i really glad to heard that :) .
Do you know that she also has a romance story in my school ? haha well i will tell you the story .Initially ,she like a boy in my class named **ki ,she told that **ki was so hot and sexy haha .but in the long run ,erin like the other guy named gessa . She was very excited and happy when she saw gessa passing by.One day ,we both saw gessa in the class was playing cards with his friends .i asked her to meet him direcly and let her knew him better .She was agree but she asked me to accompany her .haha .And at last she managed to get acquainted with him and erin got gessa number .They both was texting and erin looked so happy about that. I'm happy too if erin happy hahah.
Anyway time run so faaaast and i just realized that erin will go back to her country .i'm so sad to heard that .Me,erin ,and some of the other friends went to the ambarukmo plaza 3 days before she left jogja.We had so much fun in amplaz . Gessa also joined with us and of course he had so much fun and pleasure with erin .But gessa just joined us for a short time because he has something to do . We had so much talked in tamansari foodcourt and we took some photos there. Me and my friends also gave her a bag that we bought in malioboro as a souvenir for her. And i gave her some silver stuffs from my silver shop. We also accompanied erin to looking for a gift that would be gaven to gessa .Because erin knew that gessa like red color ,erin bought a red jacket for gessa .Erin gave the jacket to gessa at the last day she in my school .oh so so :( . At that last day ,Erin said that she didn't wanna goes home ,she wanna stayed longer in indonesia .she had fell in love with Indonesia .She told me that Indonesia have a huge of tasty food and some of indonesian men are handsome haha . At that day we said goodbye and our tears just fell down .Erin said that she always crying over when she say goodbye .We hug each other and said that we will miss each other .And now i just miss u erin :)
