It was Saturday morning a week ago. My mother took me to her friend’s grand
opening shop. We brought a bucket of red roses for Aunt Tia. She was very happy to
receive her favorite flowers. Aunt Tia said the coffee shop was one of her dreams. She was
so happy to officially open the coffee shop.

There is stage for live music too, so the customers can enjoy the performance. Since

“Joining the Traditional Dance Competition”

I joined the Traditional Dance Competition in Jakarta last year. I represented my Junior
High School. It was my biggest competition. I practised hard with my teacher for a month. We
also prepared the best costume we had. We only had one day in Jakarta. We went there by
plane. We left at 6 a.m. and arrived in Jakarta at 7 a.m. We took a taxi to take us to the place
where the competition was held. It took an hour to get there. There were already some
participants when we arrived. The competition would start in an hour.
First, my teacher and I went to the dressing room. My teacher helped me do the make-up
and the costume. We spent almost an hour for the preparation. I told my teacher that I was
really nervous. I was not ready for this. However, she told me that everything was alright, and
I felt better.Then, the time came for me to perform on stage. There were five judges and about
two hundred people watching me. However, I did not feel nervous anymore. I performed on
the stage confidently. I really did the best I could. I was glad when it ended smoothly.
After that, we waited for the announcement of the result. It was 4 p.m. when the judges
finished making their final decision. I was so impatient to hear the result. I still could not believe
when they called my name as the first winner. I was so happy to be given the trophy. My teacher
was also proud of my achievement. Finally, we went back to Yogyakarta in the evening. We
were so tired. However, we were satisfied because our effort was not useless.
