MY ELDEST BROTHER’S PERSONALITY

My eldest brother Karl is an active person. He is a student at Universitas Katolik Parahyangan (UPAR) majoring in International Relation and he is in his 5 semester now.

Even though he lives opposite his campus but he leaves for the campus at 7am straight to the library to read books. While waiting for the time his classes start. After classes he then go straight to the library again or to the field for his soccer training’s, he has classes 5 days a week from Monday to Friday his classes is mostly at 10am. He attends class everyday if the lecturer is not in he keeps him self busy by studying.

During weekends on Saturday he plays rugby union at Jakarta and on Sunday after church he goes straight to the field to play soccer. Although his spends weekends at the field he is very concerned with his studies so he covers up the time he spends on weekends by staying up at night to study and do his assignments. He makes sure his assignments are handed in on time.

The time he goes to sleep is when he is satisfied with his work and knows for sure that he will get good marks or result for what he has done.

He dose all this because he says “it’s part of life” if you want to be a successful person in life, you have to work hard and face all challenges in life cause it worth a million, and also he have to prove to the Indonesian Government that the scholarship given to him was not wasted and will complete his studies in the given length of time.



My Hobby

My favorite hobby is playing Rugby Union. It is a kind of sport mainly played in countries such as Australia, Britain, New Zealand, Pacific Island, and South Africa. It is a game consisting of either 7, 10, or 15 players. Depending on the officials calls or decisions.

Even though most people think that rugby is a rough and dangerous game but to me it is fun. I started playing rugby union this year for the Bali Barbarian girl’s term. We train 3 time’s a week at Jatinangor and play on weekends at Jakarta. I play as a winger and a jumper. The best thing I like the most in this sport is tackling, ticking and running. Apart from this rugby union makes me relax and have lots of fun especially when meeting new players from different countries and back grounds. But some times me feel aches on my body when I play so rough.

I prefer rugby union as my favorite sports because it is a term work if we play as a term and stay as a term we would win the matches, but some times time’s are not that way because we all have differences and can’t cop with one’s decision but thank God we have our own ways to solve problems we face. Rugby field is the own place I’ll be at on free times and holidays.



The Best Day


The best day that I really liked and enjoyed was 14 of Novermber 2009. Not like another Staurdays which I wake up late. Today I woke up at 4 am then started the day with a prayer, and after that I check my emails and carried on with facebook until 6am. I was so happy because the BB club had a meeting and we would be learning how to cook food from different countries.

At around 6.30 my sister’s and I went to the Gerlong to buy the things need for our cooking, then went back home and started preparing the food, then went over to my Thailand friends house to cook there. It was really nice event we learnt alot about the cooking from other countries.

After that I went to Jatinangor for my rugby training from 4pm-6pm. Since I didn’t train for almost 2 months. I felt so tired, but it was fun that I played and played until satisfied, and after the training there was a hand over- take over party for the captains because the old captain was going back to Papua New Guinea, but I didn’t attend the party because I have to go to Bogor , so I left after the training, and went to Bogor because it was my cousin in Bogor’s birthday. We had a really good time celebrating there.

It was a really busy day, but I enjoyed it becasue I kept myself busy instead of sleeping and relazing around in my home stay.
