TOo Long...


It's been a long time since last I share everything in this blog. I get busier every day. School's activity isn't too busy anymore but church time now. I have to do some jobs - not really, services I think- for Easter later. Aside from that, the teenage fellowship will have it's birthday in May, perhaps. I'm in charged to be -what ya- the person who arrange the event later. (Gak tahu Sie. Acara itu apa, hehehe...^^)
By the way, last Friday we learned about haiku (hiragana: はいく). In all English period last week, we had to learn about poem. So you can conclude that haiku also about poem.

Let me explain shortly about haiku. Haiku is a type of Japanese poem. It's usually use seasons phrase and mostly related to nature. The person who wrote this type of poem for the first time love nature so much. I forgot his name. Later I'll tell you. The rule of this poem is only has 3 lines with 5-7-5 syllables respectively. If English translator use this rule to translate the haiku or make a poem base on the rule, the poem will be called as strict-form haiku. If the translator choose shorter word or longer word, the poem will be called as free-form haiku. Then, we were divided into 4 different group according to seasons. I was in 'Autumn' group (Nad, Lyne, CheLLe). We made free-form haiku. This is our poem which were repaired by Ms. Charlotte:

Brown, orange, yellow leaves fall
Children boots stomp the dried leaves
Basking in the autumn ambiance

These are several poem from other season groups.
Spring (PhiL&CLeve):
Sakura blooming
Cherry blossoms everywhere
It's spring in Japan

Winter (Hansen, Harisson, Ivan, MitcheLL):
Things are freezing now
It's time to wait for Santa
Got to make snowman

Summer (Christina, Vivi, Ivi, FeLicia):
Beach boys in the spa
On vacation in Bali
Summer vacation
During summer trips
Sexy chicks in bikini
Playing volley ball

All their poems are so nice, right? They chose deep-meaning words to explain what they thinking about the seasons. Aside from work in group, we're also making haiku for some seasons that we didn't make for. If we could  -individually- show our poems about other seasons, Ms. Charlotte would give plus points. I think, all of my classmate showed their work. None of us didn't get plus points. O ya... Below are my poems. Originally made by me. 

Spring:
Roses are blooming
We will breathe the new fresh air
Loves come as Spring does

Summer:
Sunshine is so bright
Beaches crowded with people
Sign that Summer comes

Winter:
Snow falls everywhere
Children waiting for presents
Winter is coming

Autumn (by me):
Leaves are all falling
Boots and trench coats are all used
Peace Autumn arrives
