Bakdes !!! (amazing experience)

Assalamu'alaikum...

Hi guys ! Now I want to tell you about one of many annual activities in SMAN 3 Bandung, Bakdes.

First, I want to apologize because I just got a chance to write this now. I know it's too late, but hope you enjoy and can take a lessons from my experience.

So, Bakdes or Bakti Desa is an annual activity in SMAN 3 Bandung for the second-year students only. We go to a village for a few days, mingle with the villagers and help their activities. This year, Bakdes was held in Cibeureum village, Bandung on 3rd until 5th of January 2019.

In the beginning, I feel so lazy to join this activitiy, because honestly I am a home-based child. But because this is a school activity that must be followed. I can't do anything else. So I think this activity won't be that bad, I'm very sure this would be very fun. I can imagine, go to a village, fresh, green, cold, chatting with my foster parents, helping their activities, playing with their children, and many more.

But, not. There are many problems in my Bakdes (T_T).

I don't know why. My bakdes group that should have 3 members, suddenly had to be joined by other groups. Hasn't stopped there, my double-group was combined in one house without foster parents in our house. There are some reasons why it happened, such as my foster mom has to accompany her mother at her mother's house, my foster father will always back home late nights, so he doesn't want to distrub us, so he doesn't live in our house, etc. I'm very disappointed at that time. 

But I think I can't just grumble with my condition, I want to have fun there. So, I spent a lot of my time with my other friends outside my house, with them I can interact with the villagers, and hang out to many places there. Here's some of my photos.

Yes, I met many children there. They're very kind and friendly. Even now I still have their contacs.

At that time I was very comfortable with the situation. Until...(in fact my foster mom said that I should not tell about this to anyone). In the third day, maybe at 05.00 morning, my foster mom came to our house, and accidental I was there. She cried (T_T). I don't know why and what should I do. Then she tells me that, my some friends in my double-group, slept in another house, therefore, some villagers were talking about my foster mom, of course she was embrassed, then she told me to immediately call them. Not long after that, the problem ended.

So yeah, that was my experience during Bakdes, I'm feel so happy. Adapted with another atmosphere, new place, new condition. I'm sure this experience will never be forgotten.

I think this post instead become my diary, I'm so sorry.

Without reducing my respect for my friends.
