When I was in grade 8, I was jn 8c class. 8c class had 18 good students 7 girls and 11 boys. There were Cindy Fransisca Subagijo(me), Cyrilla Ongkowijoyo, Daniel, Daniel Dylan Septianto, David Benedict, Elena Elizabeth Cendra, Enrica Zerline, Evelyn Vannessa S, Fanny Patricia, Gillbert Rahardian Sidarta, Hans, Hendrikus Zendy Mauren Widjaya, Jovan Adriel, Kevin Hadipranata, Leander Tanuwijaya, Novi Angelica, Theodorus Rudi Chandra, and the last is Yoke Maldiputra. Our class advisor is Robin Yulio. He is a physics teacher. On the first day our class advisor wanted to make a name for our class. And we agreed. After discussing it for a while we all agreed that. Our class name is Rexi Glow from “Republic Eight Xi Gloria Two”.
On the first day of 8c class all students were so quiet including Hendrikus, because when Hendrikus was in 7 grade he was so noisy. All the teachers felt that our class was so silent among the 3 other classes. Several months later our class started to get noisy, but we could control it. In the one of mid semester our friends had to resign from school because he is had a problem. We missed him very much. His name is Jovan Adriel. He is very talented, he can play flute. Without Jovan our class was different. There was something missing in the class. We were so sad, but we should not continue to dissolve in grief and we must be happy again. In 8c class we also had Daniel we always called him “ Engkong” because he was like a grandfather but he is so clever in all subject. Not only Daniel we also had Cyrilla, she is clever too in all subject and she was always called “Mak Ven”. In our class we had Theodorus too, he was always called “Theo” and in class he was always with Yoke and Daniel. They were like a husband and wife. We also had Gillbert and Hendrikus, they are very smart in playing basketball. Hendrikus is also very good in playing guitar. And we had Daniel Dylan, he was always called Dylan. He is so very smart to play football. And we also had 3 girls in 8c class they are very pretty and they are Elena, Enrica and Novi. Elena is also smart in all subjects she remembers things quickly and Enrica is also smart in English. And we also had Kevin he was the son of the board of trustees of Gloria School and he is clever too. We also had Fanny she is very creative. We also had Evelyn she has a good voice. We also had Yoke he is very smart play piano. Our class advisor also very smart to play guitar and he is so funny. He can make his students laugh. And now he is promoted to become vice principal of Gloria Junior High School. When he taught physics, the students can easily understand what teaches, many students got good marks in physics test..
The first time I was in 8c is I felt uninterested, but after 1 month I enjoyed my self being in this class. We rarely were scolded by teachers. On Independence Day our school usually holds a competition which involves all students in all classes. There are: Gobak Sodor, move the rubber with straw, and many more. When I was in 8c my class did not win any competitions. Although 8c class did not win in the competition at that time we did not feel inferior, but we always supported each other. Because if we had a weakness, that weakness will be covered by our good things and we should always have a lot of sprit. At the end of the semester the school make a study tour only for grade 8. We went to Jatim Park 1 and apple cider-making factory in Malang. We left school at 8 o’clock. We went to Malang by bus. First we went to apple cider-making factory. There we were taught about the making of apple cider, how to plant apple and strawberry plant, and many more. After that we went to Jatim Park 1 to seek answers to some questions given by the teachers. After finding the answers we went to play there. At 4 o’clock we went home. At the night on the bus all of us played arm wrestling. We played that game until we arrived to school. We arrived at 8 o’clock. After that we went home to eat dinner and slept, because the next day we have a holiday. And the semester we very sad because we cann’t together again. I felt 8c is the best class than another 8 class. I love my homeroom teacher :D
