Reason Why I Cannot Join WT


Assalamu'alaikum wr. wb.

The World Tournament event will be held on Saturday, 24 August 2019, but unfortunately I, Hania Pracika from X Science 4, cannot join World Tournament event. This is a tough choice between keeping a commitment promised long time ago and a now obligation. The STEI ITB Family Gathering event was scheduled early this year, long before I was enrolled as a student in 3 Senior High School Bandung. And this event is always in weekend. I have promised to participate, as have hundreds of other big family members of STEI ITB. Now I find out that every Saturday I have to attend an obligatory activity in the school. As English proverb says, life is about choice.

However though, I have to make it. I chose to keep my promise that I made earlier. Keeping promise is one of important character. Knowledge is power, but character is more, right? This is a concrete example of how character should be put in practice. I have to make a wise decision. I have made an appointment to an annual big gathering that I will commit doing and I will excuse myself to the teacher that this Saturday I will not attend The World Tournament event. The wise teacher has given me permission to do so and by way of this blog I report to her.

Thank you for your attention.
Wassalamu'alaikum wr. wb.

Dialogue: Asking and Giving Opinion

Farah: Hey everybody, I read the newest chapter of this novel in the morning! Have you read it yet? Elly: Oh really? I'll read it now! Wait for me! Daisy: I've read it. If you ask me, I think this chapter's plot is quite cliche. I can guess that the first lead will solve the misunderstanding soon.  Farah: Hmm, I feel that the first lead will go through a bigger problem. A suspicious girl made an appearance. Her mysterious smile creeps me, she's plotting something. Brr! Daisy: Whoa! I didn't think of that. What are your thoughts about her? Farah: She's quite rude towards the first lead. I believe she will be the villain and ruin the first lead's life!  Elly: Guys, I just read it. I'm not sure she will be the villain. There are a lot of opportunities. She might be rude now, but maybe she will sacrifice her life for the first lead. Farah: Amazing. It's unpredictable. I'll be waiting for the next chapter. Elly: By the way, my sister suggested that I ...
