Dear Anne,

Hi Anne, how are you? I'm fine over here and misses you. The reason why I write this letter is to invite you to my home this weekend. There's a lot of stuff over here, I'm sure we'll have some fun. We can visit Monas, and Ancol beach, I also want to take you to eat Indonesia food. My mom will cook something for lunch and I can take you to my favorite Indonesian restaurant for dinner. I also want to introduces you to my friends over here and we can go shopping together at Central Park Mall. 

Its not hard to find my home. After u landed at Soekarno Hatta Airport just take a taxi and say You want to go to Jembatan Lima. It's only around Rp 100.000 - 150.000 for taxi fare. If you arrive at Jembatan Lima you just turn left on the first light and just keep going straight. Then turn left at the end of the street. Go straight about 100 meters you will see Damai School on your right side. I'll pick you up there. 

I'm so excited for your visit. See you on Saturday. 

Sincerely,

Ellen 

week 6

Every year, Christmas is my favorite holiday foods. The reason is because first, my mother cooks a lot of dishes, such as rending, chicken soup, spaghetti, and mixed vegetables. The second reason is because my mother also bakes a lot of cookies and cake, such as nastar, lidah kucing, and kue macan. The third reason is because on 24th of December all family member would eat together at dining table after holly mass at the church. We eat and drink beverages like fanta or coke and we will watch Christmas movies on television while eating my mom delicious cookies, its so warm I really like the atmosphere around Christmas. These are the reason why I think every year, Christmas is my favorite holiday foods.

week 4

The painting of La Illuvia by Diego Rivera is a fascinating painting. the reason is because it kind of describe a societies long time ago. This painting point is at the center of the painting where people wait to get their food from the man sitting on a chair. There are 3 police officers waiting to get their food. 2 man already got their food, one of them is already eat while a dog beside him looking longingly. On the foreground of the painting is 2 woman and a little girl with their backs on the painting. its fascinating because its kind of similar with the societies nowadays. The background of the painting is a mountain and its raining which give a gloomy feeling for the painting. its kind of peaceful but and the same time a little bit unclear at first, which is another reason why this painting is fascinating because as u keep looking it become more clear what's this painting really about. these are the reasons why I think La Illuvia is a fascinating painting.
