My Adolescence
I had my adolescence when I was thirteen.
It started with acne that showed up on my face. It was very
annoying. It lowered my self-esteem and I was embarrassed to come out of my
house and play with friends.
Fortunately, my Mum gave me a good medicine. In three weeks,
the acnes started to vanish although those showed some black spots in my face.
That was my bad experience with adolescence, though there
were still lots of good experience too.
Analisa :
Orientation : Paragraf pertama, (I had my adolescence when I

Events : Paragraf kedua dan ketiga.
Reorientation : Paragraf keempat (terakhir)

My Holiday in Bali
When I was 2nd grade of senior high school, my friends and I
went to Bali. We were there for three days. I had many impressive experiences
during the vacation.
First day, we visited Sanur Beach in the morning. We saw the
beautiful sunrise together. It was a great scenery. Then, we checked in to the
hotel. After prepared our selves, we went to Tanah Lot. We met so many other
tourists there. They were not only domestic but also foreign tourists.
Second day, we enjoyed the day on Tanjung Benoa beach. We
played so many water sports such as banana boat, jetsky, speedboat etc. We also
went to Penyu island to see many unique animals. They were turtles, snakes, and
sea birds. We were very happy. In the afternoon, we went to Kuta Beach to see
the amazing sunset and enjoyed the beautiful wave.
The last day, we spent our time in Sangeh. We could enjoy
the green and shady forest. There were so many monkies. They were so tame but
sometimes they could be naughty. We could make a close interaction with them.
After that, we went to Sukowati market for shopping. That was my lovely time. I
bought some Bali T-Shirt and souvenirs.
In the evening, we had to check out from the hotel. We went
back home bringing so many amazing memories of Bali.
