Many students who study in Pematang Siantar come from various villages in North Sumatra, particularly in Simalungun Regency. On this video, I was just getting off of a similar bus on my home from Pematang Siantar. This area is a capital of a Kecamatan, smaller than a regency. A regency is made of several Kecamatans. A province is made of several regency. That's how it works in Indonesia. Finall...

I personally experience it myself. The more I practice, the more I do write, the better I feel. There are only benefits once a person cultivates and nourishes her/his habit on writing. You can only get all kind of benefits by doing so, regardless who you are.

Well, I used to have more chicken than what I have today. They like to eat all kind of grains. I also feed them with some greens.

My sister and I are discussing a topic that we both experienced in the past during our elementary year.

I have been away for more than a week, for two main reasons: 1. I had to work on my research paper, Karya Tulis Ilmiah. We started to work on our paper three months ago at the beginning of this semester. As for November, all students have to pass research paper proposal, examination. My examination was on November 13, more than a week ago. This research paper is required for all of the 12th gra...

I am Paulina Sihaloho, now at my 12th grade year of schooling. It is a pleasure for me to be able to participate on contributing my experience and insights related to education.

Some of you might think or ask where is this place where I am? This is next to my home where my family live, in a village, here in North Sumatra, Indonesia. There is a path for you to go down there to get to the lake, Lake Toba. It is a volcanic lake. In this part of area which is Simalungun Regency, the locals use Simalungun dialect, one of the dialects in the country. The younger generation u...

Up to this days, we get to be creative on how to take care our farm, including how to keep monkeys away. Since our farm is next to a mountain and forest, there are many monkeys live nearby. Now and then, they do come to the farm to get some food such as corn, squash, and what not. My dad sometimes uses scarecrow-like-model, putting it in the middle of the crops, such as corn field. It does help...

This story was based on my own experience. It happened several years ago, not that long ago. It was during the corona pandemic. I was at 9th grade. Well, just 3 years ago, right? All day long, it was only me and my sister at the farm since mom and dad, also our little brother were somewhere else attending an event. Our farm was next to a mountain, and the large portion of the area around our fa...

I get to keep on practicing to speak in my ethnic dialect, Simalungun. One of the reasons is to do with the fact that this dialect is now in danger due to the reducing numbers of its speakers. Beside, I hardly can find any video using everyday Simalungun dialect, telling stories to do with common experience.

(As usual, once a week, I present a talk in my own ethnic dialect, Simalungun. It is one of the more than 700 dialects spoken in Indonesia, which is in danger to being extinct due the reducing number of its speakers. It is important for me to participate preserving this in-danger dialect). According to the Genesis 1: 27, God created mankind in his own image, in the image of God, God created hum...

Do you know where Samosir Island is? Are you familiar with Lake Toba? I have been to this island many times, who knows how many times already, I can't even count it. Right since I was a toddler, I have been to this island. It is one the most visited areas for tourism in Indonesia, beside Bali, of course. At least for my core family, we never went to the island specifically to holidaying. It has...

Based on my observation since I was at elementary school up to now to my senior high, there are some reasons why, generally speaking, many students do not like or do not enjoy reading. 1. Only at the first years during my elementary school we the students enjoyed reading our text books since there were books with pictures on the pages. We liked that kind of book. However, at the 5th and 6th gra...

This is a story from my childhood specifically to do with one of the works I used to do: collecting woods. In my village in those years, most of the time, we used wood to make fire in the kitchen. We cooked our food using fire, and also to warm ourselves up since it was relatively cold especially at night and early in the morning. Indonesian language is the official language in Indonesia, spoke...
