My new friend, Sylvia

Although i got some stress for this week, i really enjoy this weekend. Why? because we got some "extra" weekend holiday! What a wonderful weekend. This whole weekend, I spent with my friends. And my new friend from Italy, Sylvia Venturino. Before I told the story, I wanna tell little story about her, why she's here, and many more.

Here we go, She is Sylvia, and she's from Genova, Italy. The reason why she's here, because she's in exchange to Indonesia, actually in Banda Aceh. Yeah, before Sylvia, there are many students from Europe and Australia came here. Norway, Poland, France, Germany, Czech Republic, Sweden, Netherland, Slovenia, and Australia. We have the exchange program in CIMSA, SCOPE (for Professional Exchange) and SCORE(for Research Exchange). And they're from SCOPE's program. I'm so happy when they were here, i can practice my english, know their culture, and social program of course(around the city, tsunami tour, and many more).

Okay, let start the story. My great weekend started on friday, it's a holiday. Because the day was easter. And, we're in holiday. I just spent my day with sleep all the day, except when i should go to the Mosque to "pray jumat." And in the night we made a welcoming party for Sylvia, we had dinner in Canai Mamak. We pick her up with our motor cycle, that moment was so fun! And after we arrived in there, we met our senior with his family and say hi to him. And the people in there looking at us, i don't know why. 


Saturday! The wedding and the tsunami tour. We're invited to the wedding, actually this is Aya's sister wedding. Here they are :



And we went to "PLTD Apung". But it's too late, because we arrived there at 5.45pm and they closed at 6.00pm. And, i was so surprised. It changed! The area of the the ship was changed, and it looks like great! I don't have the picture about the area, but we took some pictures there. Here they are (again) :




And we went to Ulee Lheue for sunset. We talked about the difference about catholic and protestan, about movies who is set in Italy, and many more. 


Sylvia is a great friend! And, i hope that one day i can go to Italy and around the city with her. I hope.
