other. We

played badminton or climbed a mountain together, etc. One thing
which is
very
important in my life is that you always helped solve my problems.
As you

patiently
helped
take care of my father two days before he passed away. You stayed
in the
hospital
outside the ICCU room in which my father should have a specific
treatment.
You brought food and drink, too. And this makes me feel that you

my best friend. The friendliness of your sister, Tanti, and your

always makes me remember you and your family. The kindness of your
parents
makes me feel as if I were part of your family. And now I have to
leave you
and
our country for the sake of my future.
I
wish you all the best for the future. You already have my email
address, and I will
send
you my new address and new cell phone number as soon as I have
them.
Please
promise to always keep in touch. Please share what you have in
mind, and
make
me feel that distance will not separate us. Again, please always
keep in touch
with
me.
I
am leaving. C.U.

water.
Suddenly,
the wife saw an animal coming. “My husband, who is he? Wow! He
is
very handsome with his horns,” said the female deer. “Oh,
that’s my friend. He is a
dog.
By the way, did you say he is more handsome
than me?” asked the male deer.
He
was jealous. “Of course not, you are still more handsome than he
is. But I have to
admit
that his horns are beautiful. If you have those horns, I think you
will look very
attractive.”
“Ok, then, I have an idea how to take
the horns from the dog. Just wait
here.”
“Hi,
how are you?” asked the male deer to the dog. “I’m just
fine,” answered
the
dog. “How about you?” “Not really good. You see my wife over
there? She
thinks
that I cannot run fast like other male deer. Do you mind if we

race?

the running race now.”

the
dog up. “Well, don’t be sad. You
cannot run fast because you have your horns on
your
head. What if you let me wear the horns,” asked the male deer.
“OK, but please
wear
the horns carefully. I don’t want them to be broken.” “Don’t
worry. I will be
very
careful,” replied the male deer. And
then he immediately put the horns on his
head.
“Wow? My wife is right. I really look great with these horns,”
said the male
deer
to himself. Then, they started the running race again. The male
deer ran as fast
as
he could. He ran very fast and did not stop.

it long the way to the park. I was driving slowly when suddenly I
heard a

Geckos
are small to middle size lizards. Lizards are reptiles. There are
1196
different
kinds of geckos. They live in many warm countries. Some kinds of
geckos
go
into people's houses. People are often happy to have them because
geckos eat
many
insects.
Unlike
most lizards, geckos have voices. A gecko sounds a little like a
bird or
a
frog. In some languages these lizards have names that sound like
their calls, for
example,
both English and Indonesian call one kind gecko (gek KO) and tokay
(to-
KAY).
Another kind of gecko, with a different sound, is called chicak
(CHEE chak).
Geckos
have no eyelids. Instead, they have a clear membrane (skin) over
their
eyes. They lick the membrane clean with their tongues. Like most
lizards, they
can
regenerate their tail if they need to.
Many
kinds of geckos can walk on walls, windows and ceilings. They can
do
this
because they have special toe pads. A microscope can show that
each toe pad is
made
of thousands of hair-like structures. Each of these structures
branches into
many
smaller ends.

ceremony in

seat.

myself, they still didn’t allow me to sit down. They asked me to
