JOURNAL 28/10/14 (exchanged of miss mayang's task)

Helloo, this jurnal i made to complete my task when i didn't come at LM English because i was sick so i stay at home. Actually i don't really remember what i do at the time because it was a long long day ago.

But i will try to remind it to complete my task.

I think sick is not really bad. Because i can take a rest at home when my friend was stressed about the task at school, have more family time, play with my brother, and do others thing that i can't do when i went to school. 

But that day when i wasn't come to school, my class has chemical exam and i couldn't attend to do the exam. Arina said it was VERY HARD. Omg i thought that i would be the next victim of the exam. Then my mind say just let it flow and do another thing. So i did my homework for Wednesday. 

Suddenly, Mail text me and said "Why you didn't come salsal? The LM English today is so fun! We are trying to make an advertisement and we have to make a motto to promote our company." And i asked him "so what should i do?" He answered " maybe you'll have a grammar test and it will be so hard" and then i answered " omg dont make me afraid  please :(" then mail reply again "hahaha i'm just kidding :)"

Story telling : The Flying Elephant

A sugarcane farmer once lived in a small village. He worked very hard in his fields and hoped to have a big harvest.

One morning, he saw that a big chunk of his crop was missing. The next day, another huge chunk of his crop was gone.

"I'll stay awake tonight and see who's eating my sugarcane," the farmer thought to himself.

That night, he waited by the window, watching his fields. As the moon rose, he saw a tiny speck grow larger in the sky. It was an elephant flying right into his field! The farmer watched in amazement as it flew down and started eating his sugarcane. He tiptoed outside and waited for the elephant to finish eating. When the elephant began flying away, the farmer grabbed its tail in order to catch the elephant. Soon, he was flying above his field into Indra's kingdom of Paradise.

Paradise was filled with beautiful birds and flowers. The ground was covered with silver grass and precious stones. The farmer soon found the royal palace and met Indra.

"Your elephant has been flying down and eating all my sugarcane. My harvest is ruined," said the farmer.

"I'm very sorry. Please take whatever you want from my kingdom. I'll make sure he doesn't go down again and damage your crops," said Indra and blessed the man with a  safe journey back home.

The farmer took two handfuls of gems and returned home. He built himself a new house and became a very rich man. Soon, the whole village was curious about his sudden wealth.

One day, some villagers went to visit the farmer's wife.

"Where did you get all this money? Did you find buried treasure in your fields?" They asked.

The farmer's wife told them what had happened. That evening the villagers decided to lure the elephant down themselves.

"When we get to Paradise, we'll take more than just two handfuls of gems!" They said.

They planted a field of sugarcane and sure enough, the elephant flew down one night.

One villager grabbed its tail and soon there was a chain of villagers flying behind the elephant. As they flew up, they began talking about what they would bring back. Finally, it was the turn of the villager holding elephant's tail.

"I'm going to carry back this many gems!" He declared in exitement. He stretched his arms wide and let go of the elephan's tail. The villagers all fell in a heap on the ground. They watched sadly as the elephant dissapeared into the sky.

"Don't worry. The elephant will come back tomorrow," said the villagers. But Indra hearing of the villagers trick arranged for a sugarcane field to be planted in Paradise.

The elephant never felt the need to fly down again. The villagers waited for many nights, watching the sky. But the elephant never come back again.
