SEAMEO – SEA TEACHER BATCH 6
August 28, 2018
It was the last day of me and my friends from Ambon and one of my friend from Padang.
So, in the morning we went to Ma'am Galaura to ask for the files we needed to make our blog, then we met with Sister Teresita Baricaua who was the Principal for Basic Education and we handed over the plaque from our university, Pattimura University.
Then we went to the main campus for some of the necessary we must to completed there, on the main campus we met Sister Rosanne and said goodbye because on August 29 morning my friends and had to go to the Butuan airport to return to Indonesia, as well wish Sister Rosanne a Happy Birthday because she was repeated on September 30 but unfortunately we had to leave the Philippines because Free VISA was only valid for 30 days and if we passed we had to pay a fine.
After coming from our main campus, which will depart on August 29, prepare the items that we will carry and clean the rooms that we use for a month there.
August 29, 2018 at 03 a.m in the early morning.
We who will return on that day are ready to be picked up, because my friend Indri had flight in the early morning so all five of us, Indri and three of my friends from Ambon namely Anggi, Kiki and Vivi left from Surigao at around 3.30 a.m in the early morning. Because the distance between Surigao and Butuan takes a long time so we have to leave early in the morning.
Like go to Butuan, we also use Philippine Airlines airline for go to Indonesia. We from Ambon had a flight from Butuan Airport to Cebu in the morning and arrived in Cebu still in the morning. Because from Butuan to Cebu it only takes about 45 minutes.
But we have to wait a long time in Cebu because our flight to Manila on the next day, which is August 30 early morning. So we just sit, stand, sit, stand, walk a little and of course sleep in the chairs at the airport. Because our luggage is very large and also tired and knows nothing about Cebu, we don't walk in Cebu.
August 30, 2018 in the early morning
Yeyyy ... it's already 30 August in the early morning, then we put our luggage to check in, and went to the waiting room to fly from Cebu to Manila. Flight from Cebu to Manila takes about one hour and five minutes.
And we arrived in Manila on the 30 August morning in the morning and flights to Jakarta on the same morning. On the plane we were given food yes maybe because our flight was delayed very long and approached during the day. Wow, and there is also the chocolate haha (maybe to get rid of annoyed passengers because the flight is delayed from the suppose schedule xixi).
Flight from Manila to Jakarta takes about three hours and forty minutes and we arrive in Jakarta on 30 August afternoon.Yeyyy! Finally arrived at my beloved Indonesiaaaa !!!And we waited for the plane to return to Ambon that night. We use Batik Air aircraft. We have to transit once in Makassar. So, we will arrive in Ambon on August 31 at around 6 am.
August 31, 2018 in the morning
And finally we arrived in Ambon, when we arrived in Ambon we were picked up and we separated to go home. And when I arrived at the house, of course I immediately slept hehe, because I had a very long journey to go home so I was very tired. When I got home somehow like something was missing, what was missing was an activity that I used to do with my friends, things we used to do together. I hope this is not the end of our meeting. And I'm sure we will all meet again. See you on top guys! Thank you for all the memories!
Last words, I would like to say a big thank you for the opportunity God prepared for me, for Sister Nicole to give this chance for me, for Mrs. Ratna and also Mr. Karol who chose me from all those who took part in the selection at the faculty. And thank you for Pattimura University and St. Paul University Surigao which has given me the opportunity to experience an extraordinary experience, which in my opinion might just be a dream. Yes, that is a dream come true.
And also to SEAMEO who the organizer of this project!
Thank you very much! Salamat Karajaw!
