Our Friend, Hameto

The bell rang and the students crowded along the school corridor. It’s time for Shalat Dzuhur and lunch. It would be our last day at Dwiwarna Senior High Boarding School with our ETA (English Teacher Assistant), Mr. Hameto Benkreira from AMINEF, America.

During the lunch, some students performed with an electric guitar and such. They sang “Kemesraan” by Iwan Fals to make “A Moment to Remember” although our guest, Mr. Hameto didn’t seem understand due to some noise at that time. Besides, the song was sung in Bahasa Indonesia and everyone was too busy to enjoy their lunch. Then Mr. Aris came to deliver his speech and so Talitha Rahma, a representative from Dwiwarna Senior High Boarding School’s students to thankful for being at our school. The last performance was presented by XI Science I performing “Graduation (Friends Forever) by Vitamin C” and “Love is You by Cherrybelle.” He said that it was the first time that he could laugh a lot. And we were happy to hear it.
