Thanks a lot, Ya Allah!!!
Only that I can say to explain all things I got in here.
I have been living with my new (host)family. I think, they are a crazy family :) I LOVE THEM!!! A LOT!!!
Yesterday, Wed, August 26, 2009, I went to one of the AFS volunteers' house to talk about my program for the next one year, so that night I stayed overnight at his house with my friend from Germany, Hendrik.
It was my first time being away from my host family since then. I really miss them, my host dad, my host mom, also my sweet host sister.
I went to Camden City to go to Bald Rocks Trail. I walked for 5 miles to get to the top of the hill. Was feeling really tired because it was Ramadhan so I was in a fasting for the whole day. But after I got to the top of the hill, SUBHANALLAH, AWESOME!!! I saw so beautiful ocean and some islands around it. And also one thing that made me wanna cry: there was a very wide green area. I asked the volunteer what was that, he said it is actually some cities in Maine; it looks like a beautiful green forest if we see it from above. Wow! I never think that I can find such a view here!!!
I came home exhausted and felt so cold because of the weather.

Today!
Volley ball practice as usual! 10:00 - 11:30 AM. Had a conditioning session, run run run!
Went back home and asked by my host fam: How was the volleyball going on Silvia?. I said: so bad :D
The thing that we can learn from a school in the USA is they give more attention to the students, such as for the athletes, they give us knowledge about Athletes food and drink, which I never had it before :) They also invited athletes families to have a dinner together and to discuss on how sports in school can exist and achieve more.
They have a very big gymnasium as well, just like Usmar Ismail Hall in Jakarta.
Everything is just different here!!!
Love U SMAZAPO.
Love U Cony High School.
