English task, ABCDLITS2.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
My senior high school experience has taught me that never-ever-ever limit yourself.
It happened when the first time of day
school, we need to choose a sport club to complete our activity report. For
sure, I felt confuse. Ya, I was bad at sport and I hate it. Because when I was
an elementary student, I always got sick after joining sport class.
Fortunately, in that sport club exhibition I met with my lobby-mate. She
promoted about karate club to me. I didn't know what I was thinking that time,
I just wrote "karate" on my club card after I met her.
It was really hard to balance my time
between life as a karateka, school student, dormitory student and of course as
a daughter. I have trough exhausted time, but I enjoyed it. Until the day when
I was in the third year. Now, school's rule for third year student is not about
student activity, but focused on national examination. So it was not obligation
anymore to join club. Just like what people say, best friends are family that we
choose. I felt comfortable in practicing, discussing or having chit chat
with my karate friends so I choose to keep on practicing in my spare time. Then
the hardest time begun. My senpai offered me to join stage examination; it is
the examination for karateka who want to get themselves to the next level of
karate; that would be held around 1 week further. When I heard that offer, in
my mind, I didn't know exactly how to distribute my 24 hours in one day to
finishing tasks, studying for tryout preparation, washing and ironing the
clothes and practice for stage examination. But my senpai and my friend kept persuade
me, and they said "Don't think too much, just keep on going. Everything
will be okay, and will be finished". Then, I decided to say
"yes".
A week has passed, the time has gone
unbelievably fast. The result was already in my senpai's hand. As the sky
change its colour into orange, and the noon turned into night, we sat together
on the ground , waiting. My senpai called us one by one. But I felt worried
because my name hasn’t called yet. "Am I doing a big mistake?". And in
the end, finally my senpai called my name and announced that I have passed the
test with a good score, and now I've got my green belt. I was so happy and realized
that hard work absolutely can beat all possibilities. I still remember when the
practice time finished at 10pm, then doing my task until 1 am, slept and I should woke
up at 4 am to study. In the morning I went to school and doing practice again in the night. But all those
pain are just temporary, that could turn into unforgotable memory.

grammar :)
