Pieces of My Sunday Activities

I am here now, in Village Milk Tea cafe, Selokan Mataram Area. As I said last night, I will share my experiences in Jogja everyday. I begin like writing, because I can talk to anyone about my feeling, my traveling, and my planning. A couple of minutes ago someone came to my boarding house to bring me here. His name is Abha Mahulaw, from Maluku province. He is my senior in IKYEP program. He said that we can study and enjoy our time in this cafe. I am writing now to tell you about pieces of my stories in a whole day.

I wake up about 4.00 am, like my routine schedule, I went to mosque beside of my boarding house to conduct shubuh pray. After shubuh, I back to sleep again, it was one of my bad habits in recent days. I moved from my bed about 8.00 am, directly to open my laptop to check my email. Maulidi called me at 9.00 am to persuade me to go to swimming pool right now. I said to him to wait me an hour because I need to prepare myself. He said that he could not, because he would join the TOEP at 12.00 am. Finally, I said to him please go first I cannot join for today. Three days ago, Mirdat, Maulidi, and I went to swim. I brought them to conduct part of my hobbies successful. We tried to relax before IELTS test. 

I spent my time with much reading in BBC News. There are two topics those I can remember now. Firstly, prince William appeal to FIFA problem about the corruption conducting by FIFA officials. It was a black history of soccer. Many donators disappointed to seven high class FIFA`s leaders who arrested in a hotel in Swiss. Secondly, I read information about Mr. Biden`s son died because of brain cancer. He was still 46 years old. Mr. Biden said that his family sadness cannot be represented by the words. Mr. Obama and his wife said that their condolence about this news.  Mr. Biden is a vice president of  USA now.

Several days ago my shoes lost in Mujahidin mosque. So, I went to Sunday morning market to buy the new shoes at 10.00 am. Sunday morning market that we called Sunmor is the famous phenomenon market in Jogja city. The market is very large and open every Sunday. It be held around Gajah Mada University. It was so crowded place in this morning. Many people came not only to buy something but also to meet their friends. Sometimes, this market widely across UGM and UNY roads. Many Students sold their goods with enthusiastic.

I am proud of being a Minangkabau young generation. Everywhere, when I visited, I met padang restaurants. In many traditional market in other provinces, I heard Minang accent to sell their stuffs. In Sunmor, I found them not only as sellers but also as consumers. Minangkabau people spread entire the world. Generally, many of them are traders.

I walked too far to find the suitable shoe for me. Finally, I stop in a barrack, I asked about the price, and she told me Rp 60,000. I offered the shoes and she gave me Rp 45,000. I got it and back to my boarding house.

   

Since I wake up this morning, my headache has been not stopped. After maghrib, I though that I could not survive because it was painful. I have to consume my medicine. I hated to use medicine before. But, I took my paramex and finally it has been gone.

Just it for tonight, I will come to the next day with different stories. Good night, I hope we catch a nice dream that it can be real immediately.
