7th School Terror

Image
It was on January 28th at 4:30 pm; me with my bestfriend, Sayaka, and the other two friends were still at school. It was our turn to picket on that day; but as we carried about our respective tasks, we chatted so cheerfully that before we knew it, it was already dark. One of my friends, Nori, whose long hair was tied up, pointed to a large classroom windows that provided a glimpse of the dark sky. The hazy cloud seemed like it didn’t want to move from its place before shooting out its liquid. “Look!” she exclaimed. “It’s going to rain soon. Come on, let’s go home.” Me and the rest nodded. We went to get our bags in a locker at the back of the class immediately, but suddenly Sayaka’s screaming so loudly that we all turned to her. “What is it?” I asked her who was still standing frozenly near her desk. Sayaka turned her head slowly to me with a sinister look on her face. “Arin,” she said it slowly. “I was about to take my book out of the drawer, but suddenly I felt something wa...

A Notable Point

Image
Once upon a time, there were three subjects that living in a small library near the suburbs. One day, Math—the youngest one—proudly saying to his brother, Science. “I’m the most important subject in this entire world! I’m the universal language! I’m plain and simple, yet everyone knows about me no matter how they come from!” Science rotated his eyes, “You know that’s not true, Math. I’m the first. Everything is first discovered with Science, then Math. I’m the essence to everything.” “I’m the mother of all sciences, including physics. The whole world uses me. Without me, we would lose many inventions; technology, cars, phones, TV. Even some of the biggest concepts in YOU—” he pointed to Science, “—motion, gravity, relativity would not have been explained without me.” Hearing that, of course Science could not accept it. “People discover things by using Science, Math only comes in so much later. Just you is not enough to build computers, rockets, even televisions. You hear people are say...

The Story of My Life

My name is Imelda Bajetha. I was born on September 15, 1996, in a small village in western region of South Sumatera. Speaking of my name, you must be thinking that my last name is kind of 'weird' or something you might never hear before. Well, I understand. It's not a common name you would find easily. I've always experienced questions about them who always asking about that. Well, it didn't have any particularly meaning. My father told me that he was giving me by taking it off of my grandparent's and making it an anagram. So, it might be weird but my father said he would make sure I remember that my family will never left me behind. I have two siblings, more precisely two little brothers. Yup, I'm the oldest. The age gap of mine to the oldest one is 5 years apart, but to be honest I don't really remember about my memories about my brothers because I already left home since I was 10. Ever since I graduated from elementary school, I went to Java to contin...
