Indonesia’s Independence Day is celebrated every year. Any kinds of competition will also be
held to celebrate the commemoration of Independence Day. At that time, my friends and I were
very enthusiastic about participating in competitions held at school. Me, Said, and Bintang took
part in a competition called musical chairs. Most of my friends took part in a soccer competition,
and very few of them wanted to take part in musical chairs. Finally, the three of us agreed to
take part in the competition.
The first competition was football. Meanwhile, the musical chair and the tug of war would start
at 08.30 a.m. The clock struck exactly 08.30 when the committee called us. In the first round,
no one came out of the circle. In the second round, Bintang left the participant because he was
late to sit on the chair. I came out in the fourth round. As for Said, he was able to survive until
the last round, but eventually came out. We didn’t expect that the three of us would be out of
the game. We took photos and then went to the school cafeteria. Bintang bought three cups of
iced tea for us. I bought a loaf of bread and ate it at the canteen seat.
After finishing our meals, Said and I went to the field to see our other friends playing football.
When Said and I arrived, the match score was already 2-2. In the end, our class lost with a
score of 2-3. That’s too bad.
Even though we didn’t win, we were still happy because we could participate in the activity.
We learned about working together, deliberating, and most importantly, about courage and
struggle.

When I was in elementary school, I always looked forward to August 17 because it was the day
of Indonesia’s independence. There were a lot of entertainments, such as carnivals, competitions,
and much more. On that day, I had a most memorable experience.
When I was 10 years old, I participated in various competitions in my school. At that time,
all the students in my school joined the competition for the prizes that had been prepared by
the committee. I enthusiastically joined all the races too. However, I couldn’t win. The last
competition was the sack race. I walk limply toward the sack then suddenly I hear my friends
cheering me up. I took the sack and jumped quickly. I fell in the middle of the race but I quickly
stood up and continued the race. Finally, I won the last race. I was happy and proud. I get a
trophy and dedicated it to them. Until now, the trophy is still sitting in my desk.
That’s the most memorable experience for me. I could win the last race with the help of my
friends. That trophy became my first trophy in the race on August 17 because I’m too old to
follow it again.

The celebration of 17 August is related to folk festival, which is held to entertain all of
society. There are so many competitions that are held to enliven these days like sack races,
inserting a pencil into a bottle, eating-crackers race, mounting nut, and much more. My village
conducted the celebration for 2 days, and the peak of the celebration was on the second night.
On that night, we held a live music show.
On the first day, we hold competitions, such as the eating-cracker race, the sack race,
the race of catching eel, and many more. Many people followed the competition on the first
day. Most of them were children and teenagers. The atmosphere was very festive at that time.
They were very eager to win the race in order to get a present that we had prepared.
On the second day, the competition was still ongoing. That time, we conducted special
competitions for adults, like football, volleyball, karaoke contests, chess competitions,
competitions mounting nut, and others. Because the participants were mostly adults, the
atmosphere of the race became very lively and exciting, especially at the football competition.
We held a football competition for men on the condition that they wear women clothes.
Therefore, the game became more exciting and funnier by looking at their action.
