The Struggle of A Mother
Seven years ago, I had an amazing
time of my life. I chose a water birth at Bumi Sehat foundation, Ubud. It was 2
a.m., I started to feel hard stomachache, I knew it was
the time for me to give birth; however, I worried to leave my children alone at
home whereas my husband should accompany me to the foundation. So I asked my
neighbor’s help to watch them over. We left them by riding my husband’s ancient
vespa. It was not easy for me because
as long as the way to get there, I felt pain for many times and suddenly the
back tire of the vespa deflated. No
one was there and repair shop either.We kept trying only a kilometer walk from Pejeng traditional market to Goa Gajah cave, fortunately a kind man
helped and brought us to the foundation with his car.
Arriving there, we
welcomed by barking dogs until woke the duty officer up then he helped me to see the midwife, Mrs.
Robin. She prepared all the stuffs while she said, “We’re just repaired the tap
of the heater this evening but I’m sorry for it, it still broken so I will help
you in normal birth”. I was disappointed and tried to find out other way so I
suggested her to let my husband tried to repair it. With his deft fingers, he finished
it in five minutes and finally at 5 a.m.,
I gave birth a cute son by means of water birth. That was a challenging
experience that I would never forget.

My Busy Day
Today I had a busy day. I
spent my time to do a lot of activities. First in the morning, I went to my
office at Klungkung to prepare my presentation. Then I went to Social &
Labor Forces Department’s office to give socialization about the coaching of
English course program which took 3 hours. My next activities was going to Ubud
where my other office take a place. I had to check some school reports as
usual. Before I continued to my collage, I tried to practice my story telling
task first. It was my awful assignment from my lecture. I had already prepared
it for a week; however, I felt my performance was still bad and made me disappointed.
My class finished at 21.00. On the way home, I felt hungry so I stopped at Ayam Goreng Prambanan to buy the main
menu then I went home. Those activities made my day busy. I ended my day by
lying down on my bed and I would be ready to face my next day.

Taman Kota Gianyar
As the pride of Gianyar
citizen Taman Kota CiungWanara or
more known as Taman Kota Gianyar is
visited by many people. In the early evening, it’s one of family alternative
destinations to omit their weary after doing their daily activities. The park
is not too wide, we can seethe amazing statues that tells about a story of
Dewi Shita which kidnapped by Rahwana and chased by Rama with his carriage. Because
it is located in the center of the city, when we look around we can see some
shopping complex in the West side. In the North side, we can see the police
station of Gianyar district andin the East side we can see the building of SMPN
1 Gianyar which is near Mahasaraswati Denpasar University Campus. Many kinds of
foods are also offered, such as the tasty roast corn, the spicy tahu tipat, the delicious meatballs, the
fresh coconut ice and many more. The green plants give fresh air and nice view
for us; therefore, it can give an exotic impression to the middle of Gianyar city.
Moreover, especially in Sunday morning, there is ‘car free day’ program and we
can do many activities like jogging, cycling, gymnastics, watching many
creativities of arts and dances from Gianyar students, etc. So we have to
keep the existence of it together because Taman
Kota Gianyar is one of the nice tour destination places
for Gianyar people.
