Last Sunday, I was gardening with my father. It was half past six in the morning. The air was really fresh. My dad
called me from the yard. He said something about banana. I walked to where he stood looking at one of my banana
trees. I saw some of them are already yellow. What a great view!
Next, we were busy to harvest the banana. It was my first time to do this. We just moved to this new house for
about six months. Here, we have some yard beside the house with banana and guava trees.
After that I watered the vertical garden and pulled off the wild grass. I also collected the old leaves and realized
that the yard looked nicer and cleaner after that.
Finally, I picked 2 ripe guavas. Hmmm, they smelt nice. I took a shower and had breakfast with my parents right
after that. It was a fine Sunday morning. I felt a stronger bond by doing the gardening together with my father.

Last week, my school had a study tour to Saung Angklung Mang Udjo in Bandung. We started our journey very
early in the morning. There were three buses to take our groups. We stopped in the rest area before we directly toward
Bandung.
When we arrived at Saung Angklung Mang Udjo, we were welcomed by hot Sundanese drinks known as
bandrek. It was very unique. After that we went around the gallery that sells Sundanese handicraft. We then walked to

the hall, it was a huge rounded stage. Everybody sat anxiously.

The angklung shows soon began with a performance of a large group of dancers and angklung players. Then, the
master of ceremony introduced herself and offered the audience a short course to play angklung. She then taught the
audience to play the angklung, each rhythm. Soon after the audience knew the basic sound, we all played the popular
songs together. The master ceremony spoke in English too because there were foreigner among the visitors. At the end
of the show, we were asked to join the performing children to dance together.
We really enjoyed the performance of bamboo musical instruments combined with the wonderful dances and nice
master of ceremony. We were all very cheerful and refreshed after the show.
