My First Day At Senior High School




Name : Adindah Ayu Wulandari  (01)

Level /Room/Course Day: Hi-2 /301 /saturday 
 


My first day at senior high school


“Alarm was ringing on 6 am ” every 10 minutes it would ring if it wasn’t turned off.  It had been 3 times. soon i woke and I saw that it had been on 6.30 am while the regulation in national school we have to enter class on 6.30 while I was from private school usually begun on 7 am and I just remembered that it was my first day  to enter high-school because it had been 3 months in holiday so I forgot that my alarm rang for school. Soon I got ready to school ,showered about 5 minutes then my father drove me to school highly speed but we met traffic jam at senen street . It wasnt free traffic jam area . My father also felt see red with me because of me late woke up , he was also late to office . Finally I arrived on 7.15 because it was first day for new students ,it didn’t matter still allow entering school . But because I was late so I got confused to find my class , no one else seemed in corridor . I had to see every class one by one while looking at the name-list taped on every door  “is there my name or not ???” felt like one year when I tried to find my name on every door zzzzz every student was like seeing me of the class . Been six class there wasnt my name , hear-beat and thinking “don’t say if my name forgot to list ‘’ then I continued to find . Finally yeay , my name on seventh class luckily I didn’t see a teacher in class , huft my heart instantly relieved .

               At that time class silently condition  because it was first day so we didn’t  know yet each other then I saw all chairs and had been full , just one stool available on the very front center-side , I sat with a girl .  Then I started to find a topic to talk to them who sat on behind, left and right . Usually first asked their names to begin a conversation  then talked “from where was our junior high school , why did you choose SMAN 1 as your destiny ? 
Mostly of them include me answered that many successful person had graduated from here or their parents ever studied here so they want their child could study here  . So, I said I hope being like them and one said beside that he choose because he had ever watched news on tv that sman 1 also had class like international-school-standards seemed from our stools and desks , we wouldn’t ever find class like this in national schools   .But from outside class still it is like old school because it is historical school and the oldest school in Indonesia built on 1908. It was why named 1 senior high school and mostly of  jakarta residents know where school it is . It can say the most well-known .

            Suddenly, heard from radio speaker announced that we had to line every class on ceremony-field  then we all out class made line then headmaster  told that “congratulations for new students because on this year the lowest score could enter here was 82,*** and we shouted “yeay and clap-hands ‘’. He talked much about school environment , curriculum ,cleanness and etc .  After that we entered class again  but a teacher also entered this class and she want to tell about curriculum program  here  because it different with other schools . “Here we used moving-class  it meant where  student must move every lesson to avoid boring-condition’’ .

School shouldn’t student have textbook from same author so every student can buy textbook in bookstore . “Taking score seen of 3 aspects (paper –based exams , practice exams and our behaviors (home work, attendance and behaviors )”. ‘’Paper-based just will be held 3 times every semester and every subject has standard-competence-score  (75/100 )  ‘’. I thought that I had to adapt with new curriculum here which let me independent  (“heightened awareness by own-self”) . She said “ you here is like university-student that you have to be active-student  always interested to find more materials about your subject not just depend on your teacher  if you are lazy , it will affect your score in exams because for going to the next grade ,you will be just allowed to have 3 subjects below standard or you must study over again for 1 year ”

                I found many lessons that day that I had to be on time .Our cleverness should not depend on what the teacher give beside that we have to fill our brain from many sources.
