An Unforgetable Scene

It was about 4 days ago when we went to Indonesia Consulat. There were a few of 10 year student from Melville S.H.S that coming with us. When we arrived, we saw that there were a few of student from Dale Christian School learned how to played Gamelan. Oh My God! We were really shocked. We never learned how to played Gamelan!!! But then we tried to played gamelan and it was not that hard to learned.

Dari sana kita pergi ke Restoran Indonesia untuk makan siang. Namanya Bentley. Wow, rasanya seperti kembali ke rumah. Makanannya enak-enak. Benar-benar serasa di rumah lagi. Tapi ada kejadian yang nggak terlupakan. Beberapa murid Melville S.H.S makan sambal satu sendok tanpa apa-apa. Bahkan kita orang Indonesia belum pernah melakukan hal itu. Muka mereka memerah karena kepedasan. Bahkan ada yang mengeluarkan air mata.

Ya makanannya enak sekali. Dan sekarang saya tahu cara bikin cendol. Makasih banyak Ibu Agnes!

Sebenarnya, nama restoran adalah Osh5One dan terletak di daerah (suburb) Bentley.

Watching you all play gamelan was indeed an unforgetable scene. I loved the way you all showed our Melville Senioh High School Year 10 students how to play each instrument, even though some of you were unfamiliar with this form of music. Do you think that this is a sign that gamelan is losing its appeal to younger people in Indonesia? Is pop and rock music taking over?

Selamat pagi/malam/(i don't know when you'll be reading this)

This is Alli, your host sister. I think. Actually I'm a bit confused. I hope this is a way we can stay in touch.

My techer says we have t post a comment in Indonesian, so here I go:

Halo Shiela!

Anda teman saya dan saya suka coklat!!

Or something. A bit dodgy?

Anyway, at this point you're still in perth airport but when you read this you'll probably be back in Indonesia. Feel free to text me at any time.

That dinner last night was fun, eh? I had a really good time and we plan to go out and eat indonesian food more often because It's fun. I hope that you, Marina and the other students from Surabaya will keep visiting this blog so that everyone can stay in touch (without touching.)

I really enjoyed you being here and I hope we can meet again some day!
