It's Christmas day. I woke up this morning and my christmas wish was just yesterday would never happen. I told him that I liked him, and he was speechless then he left. But I do, I do like him - both as my lover and my friend. It was weird, it was awkward, and I just, I just didn't know why I said that. "Merry Christmas, C!" Mrs. Cleverly was the one who wished me a merry Christmas, though this christmas I found it... Um..  "Wish you all guys have a merry christmas too!" I said to them. We were on the living room. There were Logan and Mr. Cleverly that I thought was watching The Shoes for Christmas  on Channel 1. I woke up late, but they were all seemed waiting for me. "C, finally you woke up! so it's time to unwrapped the gifts Santa Claus has given to you both," Mr. Cleverly said to me. Yes, there were some gifts under the christmas tree, and yes now I didn't believe on Santa Claus anymore, but yap I just did it to respect all the love th...

There's a thing or two about Logan that I don't understand. We went to the church this night with the Cleverlys. We always go to this church every week. The christmas tree and the other accesories adorned the church. We got a great time.  After going to the church, we got dinner in The Cleverlys' house again. And yes, Mrs. Cleverly cooked us, for today she cooked us the special one. For the appetizer we had risotto, the entree we had roasted chicken, and for te dessert we had panna cota as she said few days ago. We got a great dinner, but the conversations were so weird. Mrs. Cleverly : Merry Christmas everyone, how's the menu? Me : Well it's delicious thanks for cooked me the dish Mr. Cleverly : I wish I could get some more. Mrs. Cl : and Logan? Logan : *shocked* it's great mom That was only some part that happened, if I told you the whole conversations believe me that was awkward.  Logan seemed different. He talked less and he looked like don't wanna talk ...

Another Christmas Day Will come and go away But I got so far to go But I wanna go home I need to go home When I was younger, I always thought that living abroad was exciting. I could learn lots of things, make some friends, and living a new life. And yes it is, living here in Australia is awesome. I think only certain people got this chance, and I'm so thankful that I'm one of those people.  I like being here with new people. Logan introduced me to some friends. I learned lots of things too from them. I love the food, the cultures, the music, the skyscrapers, the people's accent, the weather, and everything. Most of all I like the way it feels when we celebrate Christmas.  Maybe surronded by Strangers and Cristmas lights I shouldnt feel so alone But I wanna go home God I miss you, you know But somehow there's a thing about home. There's something missing when I'm here. The thing about my hometown, the people, the food, the culture, and everything.  It's been...

I was playing swing in The Cleverly's backyard. The swing was made by tire. The night came as Logan came to his backyard too. "I was searching on you everywhere and you're here. How great!" he said to me. I laughed, "Noone told you to do that, Dude." "What are you doing here, C?"  "Nothing, just looking around and wanna enjoy the summer air here," I said and then played the swing. He sat in the swing next to mine and played it too. We went nowhere this morning but home. I helped Mrs. Cleverly to make pastries and Christmas cookies, but Logan he just played game on his PC. He  asked me to play it with him that time, but I don't like to play games. And the name of the game sounds weird too : The Widow in Pennsylvania (I've said it to you if that game's name was weird).  It was three days before Christmas, and I always remember when Logan said that maybe the Christmas is about surprise. But there's still no surprise until tod...

"What's your Christmas fantasy?"  That was the first question Logan asked me that day. He just appeared in front of me all of sudden and of course I shocked. "What do you mean 'Christmas fantasy'?" asked me after that. He sat next to me then. We were in the living room that morning. We watched Law and Order.  "Just kinda Christmas thing you expect but you know that it's impossible to do." I smiled after that, "Why did you ask me like that?" "Just asking. Why? You don't like it? Okay then I'm gonna change the topic.." "No, no..  It's like you never asked me question this weird, you know?"  "Well, 1) this question isn't weird at all and 2) I've ever asked you the worse question than this : Why Jack Arrington thinks that folk music is weird?"  I laughed, I remembered the time when he asked me that question. It was my first day of school. Actually it was my 10th day in Sydney and of co...

Hello guys. I know it's really bad for me cause I posted nothing on November. I'm so sorry. As you know it happened because of school's stuff. Well, a lot of things happened, I'm gonna tell you on the other post. But now I'm gonna introduce you about my new ideas to celebrate Christmas. I'm gonna make a kind of chaptered story but it just for christmas titled Christmas Countdown. I don't know why I decided to use that title, it just came out from my head and I was like, "Okay, there's nothing wrong with it and let's use it." This story was made in English. I'm gonna translate it in Indonesia if I have enough time, so I can't promise you. I hope you guys like it. Thank you and check this out :) *** It was sunset in the west of Sydney when I’d finally done the afternoon class. The last class was Mr. Q’s, and we had to do some tasks today. I don’t know why we got an afternoon class in the day like this. At least, I was going h...

Wednesday, October 29th 2014 Hello, guys! I'm finally back after a really long time break. Yap, I had to do mid term test few weeks ago. But yea, today - in this night, a really late night. Umm not that night, just about 8 p.m. in WIB - I really wanna write something. Today the 9 graders got a holiday - even they said it study at home day (What? Sounds ridicolous). It happened because the 8 graders are now having fun in a beautiful island named Bali - a.k.a Study Tour - when the 7 and 9 graders have to come to the school. Even though we got the holiday too but it still sounds unfair, right? To be honest, I don't know what should I write. Maybe just about the thoughts. Talking about Study Tour, it's been a year since me and my friends (who was 8 graders a year ago) went to Bali too for Study Tour. We had 5 unforgettable days and that was awesome. If I could tell you, a year ago now we were on the bus watching The Conjuring when our bus passed a very creepy forest....

Hello guys! ^^ I'm sorry that I didn't post for a long time. It happened because of the mid term test and we had to study hard for that :3 Oh well, this is the 12th chapter of Nyenye, it was made by Febby. Let me tell you that we're so close to the ending. But just enjoy it, and we hope you really like it! :D *** The previous chapter → Chapter 11 - The Power of Love Chapter 12 - Part 1 Spending The Time *Lindsay Ong’s Point of View* Malam semakin larut, namun suara musik tak kunjung menjauh. Gemerlap-gemerlap lampu masih bertebaran di dalam ruangan. Pesta prom memang belum selesai. Walau awalnya pesta direncanakan selesai pukul dua belas, namun nyatanya, sekarang jam tanganku sudah menunjukkan angka satu, dan pesta masih berlangsung. Tak hanya murid IAB yang menikmati kegembiraan ini, guru-guru IAB pun juga mengikutinya. Alih-alih bersikap dingin dan serius seperti biasanya, mereka justru melakukan aksi gila Harlem Shake. Mungkin mereka lelah, kata Loiz di sel...

Hello my friends! The chapter 11 of Nyenye was finally done. This chapter was made by Sekar. Honestly, I like this chapter. Why? Because you know... okay you can read it to know my answer :D Okay, check it out!! :3 *** The previous chapter -> Chapter 10 (Part 2) - The Unsaid Thing Chapter 11 Power of Love *Carlotta deQuez’s Point of View* Soal-soal aljabar yang menjadi tugas kami hari ini membuatku bingung. Aku beranjak dari mejaku dan membawa kertas-kertasku ke meja kayu besar di tengah ruang bersama, dimana Becky dan Lindsay sedang mengobrol. “Hei teman,” sapaku ketika aku sudah duduk di hadapan mereka. “Tolong ajari dong, aku tidak mengerti bagaimana menyelesaikan soal-soal ini.” Kutunjukkan soal-soal yang belum kujawab karena aku benar-benar tidak tahu caranya. Yeah, teman-temanku mungkin bisa memanggilku ‘dokter’ karena aku lumayan di pelajaran Biologi, terutama di bab-bab tentang tubuh manusia. Tapi Matematika? Ugh. Aku menyerah deh. Untung Lindsay da...
