this is the continuation of the family day story…
upon returning from family day at westin, we reach home at that night but not to take rest… instead prepare for the next following day event. we – at the perumahan griya alam pecatu cluster arjuna, holding a celebration for the independence day… it was brought forward just before the ramadhan, respect the muslim who will be fasting.
we decorate abang and adek’s bike since we have promised to them and they could join the convoy of ‘sepeda hias’. we did it in very last minute since ayah and bunda were not available before, and there was no electricity in the house due to pln is closed on saturday and sunday so ayah unable to top up the power… while there was no more power, we used the emergency lamp that belong to om anto…
stay awake the whole night, ayah fallen a sleep at 05.30 hrs on the sofa while bunda still continuing the work, she did not sleep at all. finally all done just before the convoy… ayah woke abang and adek, get them to bath… and abang could not wait to ride his bike, he went first to balai arjuna where the convoy will be started. adek came after but should be guided by ayah… we are all had not got breakfast yet L
by 08.00 hrs all the kids of the block already there with their bike… abang with his eagle bike and adek with her butterfly bike, they looked so happy… oh the stay awake the whole night being paid by seeing their happiness expression J
after the convoy going around the blocks, finished at the first beginning place – balai arjuna, all the bikes parked with the rider on the side. the judge did their duty, but the winner will be announced later on the evening of august 17th when we planned to have the show performance of the celebration…
then there were few games conducted, abang and adek joining most of them, start from ‘makan kerupuk’, coloring a picture, marble race (for this adek hold the spoon by hand instead of with her mouth)
just at the beginning of the activities bunda turned up holding breakfast for adek and abang, so bunda get them breakfast while they are doing the activity.
on ‘makan kerupuk’ abang failed, there were two ‘kerupuk’ hang one above the other, so when abang finished the first one, the upper one fallen and this caused him failed could not continue the game. actually he should finished the upper one first… if that happen he must be the winner since abang was very fast in finishing it, lucky that he got a bit longer tongue then the others, this benefit him in catching the ‘kerupuk’ to his mouth… but it’s ok, he’s not that really sad…
but overall, both of them and the other kids were all happy and exciting with this happening… for most of them, that was their first time they had that kind of activities of the celebration that usually we called “agustusan”
could not wait for the august 17th… where there will be performance, tari bali, tari minang, modern dance, etc… for this certainly bunda involve a lot for the practice, especially for the tari minang and modern dance… abang join the modern dance… let’s see tem on stage…
