Giving & Asking Opinion: Dialogue

Jane and Alexa were sisters. They sometimes fought and argued, but they were truly open-minded people.

One day,
*on call*
Jane: Where are you?
Alexa: I'm still at Brad's party. What's wrong?
Jane: We're going on a trip next week. Do you have any idea of where to go?
Alexa: It's too loud here. I'm on my way home.
Jane: OK.
*end call*

Alexa arrived at home,
Mom: Where have you been? We have already decided where to go.
Alexa: Seriously? Where?
Mom: Hawaii.
Alexa: This might be acceptable if we go there on Summer.
Mom: Well, what about Rome?
Alexa: ROME? Absolutely. Let's go!
Mom: Jane, come here.
Jane: What's wrong? I thought we have agreed about next trip's destination.
Mom: Your sister said Hawaii is better visited on Summer. So, how about Rome?
Jane: Seriously, Rome? There's nothing to see there. We have gone to Rome about years ago and I don't think it's a good idea to go backthere. There are still many trip destinations to go, except Rome.
Alexa: But, I don't agree of going to Hawaii. It's Autumn now, not summer.
Jane: Well, Paris? What do you think?
Mom: I'll go along with anything you both chose.
Alexa: Hm, Paris? What did attract you?
Jane: Eiffel Tower, Louvre Museums, bakery shops and the warm weather.
Alexa: Hm. OK. I agree.
Jane: Good. Mom we're going to Paris.
Mom: I'll tell your dad.

The Voice of Hibakusha

On August 6, 1945, during World War II (1939-45), an American B-29 bomber dropped the world’s first deployed atomic bomb over the Japanese city of Hiroshima. The explosion wiped out 90 percent of the city and immediately killed 80,000 people; tens of thousands more would later die of radiation exposure.  Three days later, a second B-29 dropped another A-bomb on Nagasaki, killing an estimated 40,000 people. Japan’s Emperor Hirohito announced his country’s unconditional surrender in World War II in a radio address on August 15, citing the devastating power of “a new and most cruel bomb.”  This atomic bomb gave so many pains for Japanese citizen back then. Don’t just look to the amount of the killed people. There are 650.000 victims who had to experience the incident. We can call them hibakusha (people who affected by the 1945 Hiroshima and Nagasaki bomb). Based on the Atomic Bomb Survivors Relief Law, there are certain recognized categories of Hibakusha: 1.

Get to Know Me!

Hello, people of the internet. I wanna introduce myself as Syakira, the extraordinary girl. My buddies usually called me Syak. It's easier to call my name with just a syllable, right? I was born in Bandung, 11th May 2004 and currently studying as a 10th grader in 3 Senior High School.  I have lots of hobbies and one of them is playing piano. I do love playing piano cause I feel like I can totally express myself. I've been learning piano, especially Pop and Jazz since Kindergarten. No wonder why my music sense is in control. I once didn't like Classical songs that much yet now i'm learning it. Besides that, i like singing, playing guitar, kalimba, and my one and only ukulele too. The conclusion is, i'm really into music.  I have siblings. A really really annoying yet lovable little brother, El. He was born in 2014, 10 years after me. He's the naughtiest yet  the most entertaining person in my family. He likes playing, of course. Especially cars ...
