Little by little the busy crowd began to look neatly forming a line. Their appearance did look a bit chaotic and conspicuous, with the old uniforms they wore from their previous school. It was approaching 07:00 in the morning, it was time for the new student admission ceremony to begin.
“Most of them are the old faces we know, huh.” turned around to the left-right direction, he to observe the group of students in the line."At most students from our school are in this class, guys!" Said a friend who wore a name tag on chest that read 'Dirly team-3'."Since earlier, why haven't I seen Alfred?" Harry asked surprised, even though he was looking for Alfred's figure he couldn't find in sight. In his heart he wondered if it was because of his friend's small figure that it was difficult to find him in this crowd."Well, Alfred doesn't line up here, but There!” Grace replied, reminding Harry who forgot what Alfred said before parting with the group."Oh yeah, that's right." Harry ended the observation activities that he had been doing for a while. Maybe because he couldn't wait to get to know his new friends. Also because he is the hyperactive type, extrovert and really likes to socialize with as many people as possible.The atmosphere became quiet, a sign that the ceremony had begun. a series of events unfolded, as the ceremony felt as wise as the calm before a storm came."Kyaa!!" A few girl in line scream.A small drama occurred in one of the rows of students, which made a girl scream hysterically, attracting the attention of those around. The school official who was giving a speech in front of the pulpit had time to stop observing what was happening.“Please… Someone fainted!” Said the student panicked watching the friend standing next to her collapse suddenly.Quickly the red-cross officer who was always on guard behind the line of ceremony participants helped the fainted student and carried her out of the line. The ceremony resumed as if there had never been a little chaos a moment ago. The sound of the mic containing the welcome was back on the air smoothly. Yes, perhaps something similar is common wherever the ceremony takes place.“Oh my... What the hell. Luckily it wasn't serious." comments from Dirly, other comments were also heard from various places. No wonder the little incident earlier happened right in the row of the class next to them.The atmosphere soon returned to control. What the new students have been waiting for, especially the students of class 10-6, has arrived. This is the moment where the new student representatives with the best grades come up to podium to give a speech. The two people who were crowned with honorary status were students named Alfred and Nora. But only Alfred who got the opportunity to make a speech in front of the pulpit. Meanwhile, Nora stood beside him as a set pair.The loudest applause, cheers came from classmates and close friends who had been waiting for Alfred's appearance for a long time."Is he nervous?" Grace said curiously mixed with anxiety, trying to read the look on his old friend Alfred's face."Hahaha." Harry laughed amused at Grace's question. "I don't think so at all." Because Alfred's self-confidence clearly radiates in every word in his speech that slides like snowball, very natural. In fact, Harry is sure that Alfred is very enthusiastic and also a little proud standing there to be the center of attention at this time.***Alfred's confidence that radiated from the top of his head to the tip of his loafers, not only Harry who could see that. Ivy, who was even standing in a fairly backward row, didn't take her eyes off for a second. Listening with an attentive attitude the person standing in front of the pulpit still continued to speak in one direction."Alfred Faris..." With a low voice Ivy kept repeating that one name like a spell, trying to carve it in the recesses of memory."What? Did you say something?” Asked her friend who was worried about Ivy muttering to herself."I― I think this is what is called love at first sight!" Ivy was still bewitched looking at the figure of Alfred."Huh!" Adele failed to understand Ivy's question.“This feeling… It's the first time I've experienced this. But I'm sure that I'm not wrong!" Ivy seemed to gather all the energy to accept her destiny. "If love at first sight does exist, maybe this is what it means." with sparkling eyes stared at Adele's eyes without hesitation.For a moment Adele was a little afraid that something was wrong with her friend, before digesting it. "Uh. What do you mean..." Adele pointed at Alfred up the podium then pointed at Ivy, then again pointed at Alfred. Her actions got a nod and a big smile from Ivy. “OMG! That so fast?" Adele could not understand and was horrified by Ivy's excessive attitude. This is just their first day at school and Ivy is very sure of it. It was clear that Adele doubted it and thought that Ivy's belief would not last long, because... It was clear that they didn't know each other at all."What class is he in? You want to help me find out about him. Right? hm? Hmm?” Ivy whined. Adele was silent in response give the cold whining of her friend. They have been busy enough as new students to face this orientation week, should the love story have to start now?"Can't you wait another week after orientation ends," thought Adele.Or after they were quite used to changes and adapted to their new environment.In the school's health unit, the student who had caused such an uproar was curious and impatient to wait for the ceremony to end. She was only unconscious for a few minutes but had to be stuck in the healt unit for quite a while until the ceremony was over. Oh, the main reason why she fainted in the middle of the ceremony was anemia, weak from lack of energy because missed breakfast before going to school.“Looks like the ceremony is over.” The news that the health teacher read the curiosity of the student who he was treating. “You can go back to your group―” His eyes fell on the familiar name tag seen everywhere these days. “Debbie, group-8. Can you find your group mates?”"Yes ma'am." Debbie answered in a small voice, a mixture of shame and embarrassment because of the incident earlier.“All the new students must gather in the field. Or if you don't feel up to today's orientation, you can stay here.” The teacher offered a choice so that Debbie would not force herself. so that it would not cause another incident."No ma'am I can participate now. Thank you for taking care of me ma'am." Debbie said goodbye from there.Outside met a friend who was worried about her, someone rushed to the UKS to check on Debbie's condition. "Oh my god! out of all thing can happen there, you're fainting! Don't make people worry, will you?""Sorry-sorry, but I'm fine! It was just that I was dizzy and it was dark, and so―” Debbie was too embarrassed to bring up the dramatic scene of her fainting."So, if you feel unwell, don't force it. I feel responsible for taking care of you because aunty ask me to take care of you.” Uya is a little annoyed with Debbie who is sometimes slow."Oh my gosh... You still remember it! Your promise is that we were in elementary school long ago." Debbie was touched, she recall had forgotten the same incident that happened in the past. she fainted during the ceremony, but at that time Debbie was not feeling well than sent home."Promises are promises. Also, not many of our school friends come, not many people you know here." What Uya said is true. In Debbie's class alone, there are no classmates from old school."Thank you. I'm so touched because you concern for me..." Debbie rubbed the corners of her eyes as if there were tears drop.Uya was not deceived and found it not funny at all. Yes, Debbie is not being funny. "Enough with nonsense! If you're okay, I'll just go back to the group then."Debbie nodded in agreement. "Right. I also want to join my group. But I guess I need to go to the toilet first." Nobody asked and it was TMI.Uya, who was about to leave, looked back at Debbie. "Don't take too long, hurry find your team, got it! Also watch out for the schedule.”"Yeah-yeah... If anything else happens then my life is so dramatic for sure!” "Are you just realized now, huh?" Uya immediately replied.And yes, something else happened. Not long ago, just a moment ago Debbie said that to Uya. But now she is again involved in a ridiculous situation. A situation that looks and sounds like joke and comedy drama to anyone. Debbie and several of her group's friends were locked in the bathroom together."Actually, what's wrong with me today..." Debbie lamented, unable to understand.Who would have thought the bathroom queue would be snaking long. What happened during the ceremony actualy? Did people refrain from going to the toilet until the ceremony was over. Debbie didn't have much time so she decided to look for the bathroom in various available places. That's when she found the queue of people less than anywhere else. Coincidentally again, some of the people standing in line at the door were her group mates. Debbie thought that if they were with them when returned to the group, the come back would not be too obvious by the seniors."Since we all don't have much time and afraid it's going to be too long, how about we use the bathroom together?" One of them suggested."It's good idea, so the senior don't look after us because takes too long." Another person support the idea."Yes, I agree, after all who here now are girls. So, It's okay right?" Ask a friend who is in the same group as Debbie.Debbie who joined last in the queue did not intend to express an op
Amy becomes Debbie's first friend as well as her seatmate. A girl with a round, stocky body with chubby cheeks with thick minus lens glasses that is clearly visible. Amy has an appearance and posture that is quite a contrast to Debbie when they are side by side. Debbie has a fairly small but proportionate body posture. Because of her height, Debbie always stands in the front row at every formal ceremony."This week we have to choose what extracurricular to join, but I haven't made a choice yet." Extracurricular is an additional activity that is carried out outside of school hours. The school requires every student to attend at least one extracurricular at school."Me neither, but don't worry. Today the seniors will perform, demo their respective extracurricular activities in Malabar. Let's go together, okay?” Amy asked Debbie."Today? After school?" Debbie was impressed, where did Amy get this information from?"Yeah... We'll go there together with other." Amy smiled innocently. That
Ivy's laughter lasted for a moment, until she fell down in her seat during the afternoon break. Adele, her best friend, is talking about how other children like to tease her, especially the treatment that comes from boys. Is it because of puberty, Adele feels that her male friends like to do physically touch while joking, starting from holding shoulders, pulling hair or point cheeks carelessly. But what Ivy laughed at was not about that, but the nickname Adele got. "Your name Adele is good one, why do you want to be called with strange one?" Ivy asked without thinking. laughed so much that she had to wipe the tears. Adele bent her face. "It seems that my real name is too pious, you know how I am..." can't resist being bullied. Ivy's face drew closer, her lips pouted. "How are you? Like a school chicken you mean! Huh? So are you aware about that?" Ivy jokes. "Jeez!" Adele hit Ivy's lips weakly. "Really, this mouth is too aggressive than pious." Adele is too hobbies to talk about
In this place, in their own kingdom. The seniority law does not apply to juniors, all students are equal to one and another. Therefore sometimes situations and circumstances can be like being in the jungle. The atmosphere during recess or empty classes can be very noisy and boisterous with screaming voices. They run around, play ball or like the behavior of the class 10-5 for exemple, Debbie's classmates who are holding an impromptu concert. Hanging out in front of the class during lunch break singing a song from a well-known band that was popular at the time, entitled 'The Foolish Man'. Start from bridge: All stories have an end that must be passed Likewise, the end of this story must be beautiful Trying to survive with all my heart like a rock being hit by the waves The song that flows from the cellphone stuns them with melancholy lyrics that touch the heart. Bringing their feelings carried away with the music, until they simultaneously raised hands and waved them left and rig
Adele impatiently wanted to immediately report to Ivy about what she had just heard. When Ivy heard this news, it would definitely be an interesting entertainment for her to see Ivy's chaotic reaction. In between breaks, she came to the Red-cross extracurricular training. while she is also taking a break from extracurricular activities. “Have you heard about it, the camp?" Ivy nodded but her hands kept moving doing thing. “You're coming, right?” “I am." Adele replied quickly. “The problem is that your secret crush is uncertain will be able to go or not to participate.” The bad news that Adele below almost made Ivy spill a bottle of alcohol in her hand. Red-cross today practice on first aid procedures. Ivy is cleaning up the box of first aid used for training. “You lie, aren't you?” Ivy denies the whole truth. “You told me to be a spy. I keep doing what you ask me to do. why would I lie to you, for what?” Adele immediately ran here like this so that Ivy would know as soon as p
In the morning when Amy had just arrived at Class, Debbie was already sitting sweetly in her chair. For a moment the expression on Amy's face looked tense to find Debbie's presence that morning. Slowly she walked to the seat, Amy's mood that morning foggy sense of anxiety. "Morning...” greeting her to Debbie. “Morning too.” Amy placed the bag on the table, sat on the bench while glancing at Debbie who, as usual, was wrestling with her comic, reading it intensely. “Hey, do you want to play at my house?” Invite Amy. “Your house? Sure!” Without thinking, Debbie accepted the invitation. “Hmm..." Shyly Amy said, “but it was a little far, how?” Debbie raised her face looking at Amy's nervous face. With a smile Debbie said, “no problem, I also want to know your house.” "Okay... I also have something to say.” Amy turns moody when talking. But Debbie was not attentive enough to catch Amy's behavior. “What is it?” "Erm, I will tell you later, after school.” Amy forced a smile covering
On the day of departure Debbie missed the group bus because she came late. Again because her dad drove 30 minutes late from the gathering time. Debbie almost cried because she could not join the camp. The teacher looked for a way for her to leave, catch up and join others. “I went there too, sir. so Debbie can come with me.” One of the mentores gave advice. “That Right, Sir." said the teacher who handled the event. "Yes, but is it really okay?” staring at his daughter who looked anxious about the continuity of her fate. “Of course,” he put a smile then faced the young one among them. “Debbie, will you go with me in this car?" Asked the mentor this time. Debbie saw the car that would transport her to the location of camp. She was silent for a moment before finally deciding to accept the offer, nodding her head slowly. saw his daughter's made decision and give approval. no other way he must entrust Debbie in the care of the mentor teacher. “I'm sorry, sir, for causing such troubl
Pressure test in the sense of the word abbreviated from the word mental mentoring or mental guidance, is not a foreign thing even in the world of education in schools. This can be found in school organizations, one of which is extracurricular activities. Back on the purpose of this camper is to build familiarity, train mental and independence of participants, especially first graders. in the middle of night events are entertainment that can not be separated in school events. Marching troop plans to gather at 02.00 A.M at a predetermined place. In the main event tonight the new members are shaken both physically and mentally. They were awakened at midnight by force, gathered in a queue. After that, it was divided into several groups and then told to walk around the camper location area. In the middle of a silent, desolate, cold and dark night they are gathered on their own. In that state they could only rely on each other's group mates no matter what. Reportedly, the seniors have pre
