Puss in Boots

A miller had three sons, a windmill, a donkey and a tom cat. When the miller died, the oldest son was given the mill, the second son was given the donkey, and for the youngest son only the cat was left. Sadly he asked himself, "What can I do with a tom cat? I suppose I could have him made into a pair of furry gloves." "Listen," said the cat, who had understood everything. "Don't kill me. Have some boots made for me and soon I will make you rich." The miller's son was very surprised that his cat could talk. So he had a pair of boots made. The cat became Puss in Boots. Then he took a sack and threw some grain into it. He attached a string to the top so it could be pulled tight, and then he walked away. At that time there was a King who loved to eat partridge for his supper. Puss in Boots knew this and had thought up a plan. He opened up the bag with the grains, and laid it on the ground. He laid the string along the grass and hid ...

LDKS or Student Basics Leadership Training

Hello, This post will be all about me telling my experience on Student Basics Leadership Training or LDKS. First of all, LDKS, "Latihan Dasar Kepemimpinan Siswa" or Student Basics Leadership Training is an annual 3-day-training program that is held to improve the students' confidence and skill in leadership. In this program, we will be trained to be discipline too. In Indonesia, it is a must for every public senior high school to hold this event, including my school, but only for the 10th grade students. Now, let’s get into the story! This year, as a 10th grader, I participated my new school LDKS. It was held on 21st until 23rd of September at PUSSENIF, some kind of place that is like a educational Infanteri training for Indonesia's national army or TNI. I was really afraid of hearing rumors about how cruel LDKS is and that we'd be trained by soldiers. But, there was nothing I could do so I just packed my things. At the first day, we had to come early in ...

Lost

Hey, it’s me again! Now, as our teacher gave us the task to tell our experience that made us feel grateful the most, I’m going to tell you my most desperate experience (that I still remember) which make me grateful that I’m not that clumsy anymore. The most desperate situation I’ve been in is when I was lost around my grandparents’ house. I was about 8 years old when I first came to my aunt’s house. My parents were talking with my grandparents in the living room. As a kid, I couldn’t sit still nor play with my hand phone like right now. Since I got bored, I asked my aunty who was the same age as me to take me to the playground or just take me anywhere that would make me feel better. She decided to take me outside the house. I nodded and followed her. We went out of the house without telling our parents. I wasn’t familiar with the neighborhood since it was my first time there. So, I felt curious and kept looking around to see anything around us but I still walked behind her. I was ...
