Little Red Riding Hood

Once upon a time, there was a little girl who lived in a village near the forest.  Whenever she went out, the little girl wore a red riding cloak, so everyone in the village called her Little Red Riding Hood.

One morning, Little Red Riding Hood asked her mother if she could go to visit her grandmother as it had been awhile since they'd seen each other.
"That's a good idea," her mother said.  So they packed a nice basket for Little Red Riding Hood to take to her grandmother.

When the basket was ready, the little girl put on her red cloak and kissed her mother goodbye.

"Remember, go straight to Grandma's house," her mother cautioned.  "Don't dawdle along the way and please don't talk to strangers!  The woods are dangerous."

"Don't worry, mommy," said Little Red Riding Hood, "I'll be careful."

But when Little Red Riding Hood noticed some lovely flowers in the woods, she forgot her promise to her mother.  She picked a few, watched the butterflies flit about for awhile, listened to the frogs croaking and then picked a few more. 

Little Red Riding Hood was enjoying the warm summer day so much, that she didn't notice a dark shadow approaching out of the forest behind her...

Suddenly, the wolf appeared beside her.

"What are you doing out here, little girl?" the wolf asked in a voice as friendly as he could muster.

"I'm on my way to see my Grandma who lives through the forest, near the brook,"  Little Red Riding Hood replied.

Then she realized how late she was and quickly excused herself, rushing down the path to her Grandma's house. 

The wolf, in the meantime, took a shortcut...

The wolf, a little out of breath from running, arrived at Grandma's and knocked lightly at the door.

"Oh thank goodness dear!  Come in, come in!  I was worried sick that something had happened to you in the forest," said Grandma thinking that the knock was her granddaughter.

The wolf let himself in.  Poor Granny did not have time to say another word, before the wolf gobbled her up!

The wolf let out a satisfied burp, and then poked through Granny's wardrobe to find a nightgown that he liked.  He added a frilly sleeping cap, and for good measure, dabbed some of Granny's perfume behind his pointy ears.

A few minutes later, Red Riding Hood knocked on the door.  The wolf jumped into bed and pulled the covers over his nose.  "Who is it?" he called in a cackly voice.

"It's me, Little Red Riding Hood."

"Oh how lovely!  Do come in, my dear," croaked the wolf.

When Little Red Riding Hood entered the little cottage, she could scarcely recognize her Grandmother.

"Grandmother!  Your voice sounds so odd.  Is something the matter?" she asked.

"Oh, I just have touch of a cold," squeaked the wolf adding a cough at the end to prove the point.

"But Grandmother!  What big ears you have," said Little Red Riding Hood as she edged closer to the bed.

"The better to hear you with, my dear," replied the wolf.

"But Grandmother!  What big eyes you have," said Little Red Riding Hood.

"The better to see you with, my dear," replied the wolf.

"But Grandmother!  What big teeth you have," said Little Red Riding Hood her voice quivering slightly.

"The better to eat you with, my dear," roared the wolf and he leapt out of the bed and began to chase the little girl.

Almost too late, Little Red Riding Hood realized that the person in the bed was not her Grandmother, but a hungry wolf.

She ran across the room and through the door, shouting, "Help!  Wolf!" as loudly as she could.

A woodsman who was chopping logs nearby heard her cry and ran towards the cottage as fast as he could.

He grabbed the wolf and made him spit out the poor Grandmother who was a bit frazzled by the whole experience, but still in one piece."Oh Grandma, I was so scared!"  sobbed Little Red Riding Hood, "I'll never speak to strangers or dawdle in the forest again."

"There, there, child.  You've learned an important lesson.  Thank goodness you shouted loud enough for this kind woodsman to hear you!"

The woodsman knocked out the wolf and carried him deep into the forest where he wouldn't bother people any longer.

Little Red Riding Hood and her Grandmother had a nice lunch and a long chat.

Holiday Project

Hello Friends...

Hello everyone, I'm back! 
For today our teacher gave us a task to make a dialogue again, but this time we had to make dialogue about our holiday plan. And again, I partnered up with Kiyas, my deskmate.
Let's check it out~


Syifa  : "Hello Kiyas! How are you?"
Kiyas : "I'm good, thanks. Syifa we'll have our holiday soon. Do you already have some plan for the next holiday?"
Syifa  : "No, I haven't planned anything. But It would be great if I can go somewhere or do something special with my  friends. Because on school days, I don't have time to spend my time with my friend. Although we always meet at school but I can't enjoy that.
Kiyas : "Yeah you're right. But somewhere like what?"
Syifa  : "Hmm.. I think beach or amusement park will be great place to have fun with friends, we can make some beautiful memories there. But you know? When I was a kid till now, I really want to go to food island, where everything is made from food, we can eat all that we want with no getting fat. That's my dream!"


Kiyas : "Hahahaha that's cool! Such a great story! But are you not on holiday with your family?"
Syifa  : "Hmm, maybe no. Because usually my family doesn't have any holiday plan, so we just stayed at home. And it's boring if I just stayed at home, and not doing anything."
Kiyas : "So that's another reason that you want to spend your holiday with your friends?"
Syifa  : "Exactly! That's all about me, what about you?" 
Kiyas : "I planned a trip to Japan. I will attend Shawn Mendes concert, go to the Disneyland and Disneysea, go to Fuji Mountain to watch a snow and watch a festival in there, visiting some beautiful village, and also i am going to meet up with my pen pal friends there and she suggest me to stay overnight in her house"

So that's the dialogue about our holiday project...
Hope you'll enjoy it :)
See you soon...

My Unforgettable Experience

~Hello Again~

Hello I'm Back.
Today I want to tell you about My Unforgettable Experience.

When I was a kid, I got some unforgettable experience, one of them is when I was 2^nd grade or 3^rd grade of elementary school (I'm forget :D).The story is when I was playing with my childhood friends, Fauzan, Fauzi, (they are twins) and Reyhan. We are neighbors. At that time we were playing a game, the rules of the game are we have to shoot at each other using a bamboo gun. The bullet using some newspaper which has been moistened with water. I partnered up with Fauzan and Fauzi partnered up with Reyhan.

We played at Fauzan and Fauzi's house, exactly in the garden. I already had a container for wetting the newspaper, but I had one more container, so I want to give that container which is a scoop to Fauzi and Reyhan. After I gave that schoop for them, I went back to place where our group used to shoot. When we will started the game, suddenly Reyhan shouted "Zan! Syifa is bleeding!". I was shock at that time, because I didn't feel anything, I didn't feel the pain. But when I checked my body, I saw my left leg was bleeding. I started panic and started to cry, I didn't cry because I feel hurt, but I cry because I was afraid of being scolded by my mother. All of us started panic because at that time no one adult was there. We didn't know what we have to do. We just try to cover the wounds with some newspaper. But the wounds keep bleeding to much.

And fortunately, Fauzan's mother saw us and help me to treat my wounds. After his mom treat my wounds, she also took me home. I was very grateful at that time, although I still afraid of my parents.

So that's my unforgettable experience.
Hope you'll enjoy it. :)
See you soon!!1

First Meeting with New Friend

Hello again...

     Hello friends... Today, our English teacher gave us a task to make a dialogue about first meeting with new friend and introduction. For this task, I partnered up with my deskmate. Her name is Kiyasati Putri Kurniasih. We are student of X MIPA 6.

     On the first day of class. Syifa and Kiyas met at school gate. They often meet but don't know each other yet. They about to check wich class are they placed. And evidently they are placed in the same class.

Syifa    :"Hey! Why don't go inside? What are you doing here?"

Kiyas   :"I'm waiting for someone who want to go inside with me, i am a little shy to go inside alone"

Syifa    :"Oh really? If that so, want to go inside with me?"

Kiyas   :"Sure! If you don't mind that"

Syifa    :"Of course not. By the way I have seen you before. But I forgot where"
             "Are you in group 2?  I often to visit there to meet my friend"

Kiyas   :"Yeah, your face looks familiar. You often to meet Meisya right? Is she your friend from you previous school?"

Syifa    :"Yup, you're right"

Kiyas   :"Anyway, we haven't introduce ourselves yet. My name is Kiyasati. You can called me Kiyas."

Syifa    :"Oh hahaha. How can we forget about that? My name is Nursyifa. You can called me Syifa. By the way, have you checked the announcement about the class division? Which class are you placed?"

Kiyas   :"No, I don't know about it yet. Let me check it first."

Kiyas checking announcement about class division.

Kiyas   :"Oh here my name, I'm in X Science 6. What about you?"

Syifa    :"Oh we are in the same class"

Kiyas   :"If that so, may I be your deskmate?"

Syifa    :"Of course, why not?"

In the class...

Kiyas   :"Do you always come this early?"

Syifa    :"Oh no, this is just a coincidence. What about you?"

Kiyas   :"Usually I come at this time, I have to leave early because my house is a bit far from the school."

Syifa    :"Oh really? Where do you live? I live at Sekemerak Street. It's pretty close from school"

Kiyas   :"I live in Soekarno-Hatta Street."

In the end, Syifa and Kiyas talked to each other while waiting for the bell.

   So that's the dialogue Kiyas and I made.

Thank You!!!

See you again...

All About Me!

 Hello Friends... ^o^

Welcome to my first blog!!!
Let me introduce myself. My name is Nursyifa Akmalia. But all my friends call me Cipo.At home my family calls me Idun or Ipa.I am 15 years old. I was born on Wednesday, 24th of April 2002. I have long black hair but i'm wearing hijab. Unfortunately, I have bad eyesight so I'm wearing eyeglasses. 

I have one elder brother. His name is Nursyamsie. We have a distant age difference. He was born on 16th October 1995. Twon months from now He will turn 22 years old. (He is single :D)

I live at my parent's house. Which is located at Sekemerak Street. Close enough to cicaheum terminal Bandung.

For now, I am a student of three senior high school Bandung. Before I became a student here I studied at Cikutra 1 Elementary School. And then I studied at 2 Junior High School. I am very grateful because my future goals has been achieved until now.

My hobbies are swimming, watching film (especially drama :D), listen to the music, and reading a book. Looks like i am very diligent right? But the reality is different. Sometime I can be lazy, and sometime I can be diligent. But I'm trying with all my best to be better.  Oh, although I like to swim but I cant swim :D.

My favorite food is chicken, or noodle (but not pasta).
My favorite colour is blue, because I feel calm when I see something with blue colour.

I have a cat. His name is Bungsu. But now hi is sick. He can't walk properly as he did when he was healthy. Hope he will get better soon. 

For my dream I want to be a doctor. I don't know why, maybe because of my grandma has heart disease or because of I don't like to see other people find it hard to get health care.But I have big problem to be a doctor, I have fear of blood. By seeing someone bleeding I can feel weak. But I will try with all my best to get rid of that fear and become a good doctor. Now my next target is being student at UNPAD's medical school.

Maybe that's all about me.
Thank You for your attention to open and read my blog... 
See you!!! ^o^
