DAY-1 (January 20th, 2018).

-
This is the day!! I woke up early at 3 am to ensure that I wouldn’t be late for the check-in of the flight from Jambi to Jakarta. The flight itself will start at 6 am, but we’d already gathered at the airport since 5 am. After some tear-jerking farewell with the parents, then all five of us started our journey. At Soekarno-Hatta Airport, we met with our coordinator, Mrs. Rahmalia, who was already in Jakarta to pick up the other SEA-Teachers who will be deployed in Jambi University. She helped us to get into the international terminal and tasted the new SkyTrain there. 
I reached Manila at 4.30 pm. and peacefully passed the immigration check. At the exit door, I found some stalls that sells Philippine’s SIM card. Attracted by the crowd, then I purchased the 4 GB data package for 599 pesos. YES, 599 PESOS FOR ONLY 4 GIGABYTES OF DATA THAT YOU COULD BUY FOR Rp. 26,000 (100 pesos) IN INDONESIA. After that, I met up with the other Indonesian delegates (16 of them) at the prayer room inside NAIA and had a prayer together. Then, at the outside of airport, we met with a teacher from PSU, Mr. Christian Tom, who fetched us up to the campus. But sadly, the bus that we waited hadn’t come until almost 10 pm. due to the traffic. And finally, I started our journey in Philippines.

Today is the day that I’d visit my assigned school for the SEA-Teacher program. As usual, I started the day with having breakfast at Mom Aida’s canteen. The menu for today’s breakfast was fish dishes with both bangus and fried long-fish. After the breakfast, I and the others were arranged to visit the PSU Integrated High School, with our internship supervisor, Mrs. Agnes and Mrs. Ping. The high school is consist of both Junior and Senior High School, due to the K-12 Curriculum. We were directed to the Grade 8 – Granite Classroom to have our meeting with the principal and the supervising teachers. Mrs. Agnes also handed to us the schedule for our observation and practice teaching. As for me, because there are 4 Biology Student and the school only has 9 classes in Junior High School department, then I was rearranged to the Senior High School. After the meeting, we have a tour around the PSU Integrated High School, Library, and Elementary School. At the library, we’ve been introd...

This week outing will be the last of our outing in Pangasinan Province. For the closing, Mr. Armand offered us to go to the Baguio at Sunday. He said there will be flower festival or Panagbenga on Sunday at Baguio. For information, Baguio is one of the highest located city in Philippines. It made that place to be a lot cooler than aby other place. It's like Malang or Bogor of Indonesia. On Saturday, we were told by Ma'am Agnes to collect our reports on Tuesday. That's why we were so busy to finish it. I, Mufti, Mitha, and Ake went to Ariel&Fe at the afternoon because there is a better internet connection and we missed the food there. We ordered chicken crispy, sate rice, and Pancit sa Bilao to have a feast there. Afterwards, we visited the Bayambang city hall to take a photo there because we'll leaving this city soon. At night, I and Ake didn't sleep at all because the van will pick us up at 4 a.m. We , as a fellow sleeper, are afraid to wake up late. ...
