Four Days Regional Championship Documentation

Just like what I'd mentioned before; I participated a Regional Fencing Championship that was held in Probolinggo few days ago. It started from May 24th and ended at 26th.
Thus, we (the Malang athletes), went to Probolinggo at May 23rd. We gathered at Vita's house at 9.00 am, and departed at 10.00 am.

Day One

We arrived at Probolinggo at 12.00 am. Our coach didn't eventually looking for a place to stay in, but rather he headed us to a house of a friend of his, which was a fencing athlete too.
The house was big and fancy. It's so obvious that this "coach's friend" is a rich man.
But our attention was mostly drawn to a big frame stuck at the wall of the living room. 36 medals were displayed inside the frame. Some were gold, some were silver, some were copper. In the middle of them, there was a picture of  2 athletes doing a match.
We gaped in awe.

Oh, just when I could have just one of those medals...

From an Hour Janitor to Buying Perfumes

The title says it all.

What a long day.
I was helping the librarian in my school cleaning the library at the 9th lesson hour. I actually was supposed to attend the art class--karawitan in the hall, but the hall was being used at that time. The art class was canceled. So there I was, having my 1 and half  hour free time.

There was nothing to do, so I decided to spend my free time in the library.

When I walked to the library, I thought it was closed because the door was shutted out. But then I was peeking in by the window, and saw the librarian doing the cleaning of the tables.

"So the library is closed now, Miss?" I asked.
"Well, yeah, we are in the middle of cleaning it up. What are you doing here?"
"Umm, well, just having nothing to do-..."
"OHH, IS THAT SO??"
And she suddenly opened the door for me.
"Here, help me clean the windows and tables." said her by giving me a piece of cloth and glass soap.
"....Sure."

And I just followed her order to clean off the library.
Windows, tables, bookcases...
Duster, cloth, glass soap...

Madame Wita, my French teacher, saw me helping the cleaning, and started to tease me around.
"Hey Masfi, you sure you already wiped this part? It's still dusty. Do it again."
I was just chuckled.
Doing the cleaning wasn't so bad.

Oh, and I met Sensei Lucy too, the Japanese teacher. She asked me to discuss about the planning to go out having fun with the friends at the certificate lesson. It's to celebrating the victory of our school, SMAN 5 Malang, as the overall champion in the IT8.

Nearly an hour has passed. The library was cleaned off, and the school time was almost over.
I excused myself to Madame Wita and Miss Librarian.

After school, I went to Dodikjur to doing my fencing practice. But there wasn't any practice. Mr Pieter, the coach, gathered us together and talked about the Regional Championship that will be held few days ahead. I'm participating too, though I'm still that one of the weakest athlete...
He told us to be prepared physically and mentally. And ordered us to clean up the equipments and packing them up.

After done, we finally can go home. I went home by riding with my senior, Andre. Andre-senpai told me that he wants to buy perfume first, and asked me if it was ok. I answered sure, I wasn't in a hurry.
And then he brought us to a little perfume shop at the roadside.
