We went to the station thirty minutes before
deadline time because we won’t be left out the train. Two hours we enjoyed the
journey from Jombang to Surabaya, exactly to The U.S Consulate General. We were
six members, 5 boys and 1 girl together going there. Throughout of the trip we
were accompanied by a pack of chips. We got off in the Wonokeromo station at
09:00 AM.
We went to the public transportation, TV on foot
and passed through two flying bridge. We were confused what kinds of
transportation we should get on. We asked to everyone we met around there.
Finally, we found the right one that would carry out us to our destination.
We all got on. It was so hot, crowded, and
tight. We waited for the car run so long. We were like under the sun. We were
wet with perspiration. Finally, the car run. Unfortunately, it needed to be
pushed by many people for running the machine. We laughed and felt in pain. But
whatever it was our struggle to get the U.S Consulate.
We got off in Jl. Citra Land. We felt satisfied
because Consulate were closer and closer. We were confused too what
transportation would pick us up to there. While we thought about, we found the
public transportation parking beside the road. We run and asked the driver
about the cost of going to the consulate of America. We were surprised because
we thought that it was too expensive. It was perforce and we went on foot
again. 2 KM should be passed by us. We didn’t care about how far the place. The
most important is we arrived there safely and we didn’t use our limited money.
We walked straight away. We always asked to the people we met in the road where
U.S Consulate located is. We never felt tired. We enjoyed this journey happily.
We spent much time in the road on food. We took picture. We found there many bend
of the road. We didn’t know where we went to, right or left. We were
unconscious that there is a path to get the place. However we crossed the
farther one. It was bad event and we had not been lucky yet. After passing the
long trip we found the place addressed. We saw from the flag of America. We
smiled signing happy and satisfied that this trip gave the reality. We six were
thirty. We drunk. Herzul said that he was hungry too. He saw a sheep eating the
grass. He said “let kill the sheep then we eat it unripe meat because no one
shopped here and the place was very quiet” we laughed together.
We were proud of arriving in the U.S Consulate.
We wanted to take some photos picturing that we in the real America but
we didn't do it. Because there are frightening soldiers putting on
the black big glasses and the notice of “No Photography Here”. We were welcomed
happily by the staff and finally we could be in this Agenda, Academic Writing
Seminar.
There are many best experiences and
moral value we got after meeting with the best lecture of UPN Surabaya, Zainal
Abidin. He invited us to be in one his car. He was kind. He also invited us to
his office, UPN. We were there for praying and having meal. Then, He drove us
back to the Bungurasih terminal. Throughout the jammed road, we six talked
about many important and good things motivating us to be a real human. Thanks
for everything.
The terminal of Bungurasih was very crowded. It
made us difficult to find the comfortable bus fast. We run from one place
to another but it didn't make any sense. The bus that we would get on
was always full of passengers. We spent in vain but it didn't matter. We
know it was just little struggle.
Thank You
