WELCOME : story                  CHRISTMAS GIFT
 (Christha 9A, Monicque 9B, Olivia 9B)

At Saint Claus University, at North Pinguin street 0071/2, there was a test WBSC (Wanna Be Saint Claus) that was very well-known. The best graduated student would replace the Saint Claus xxxvi
            There was a man that wanted to be a Saint Claus, but it seemed that he wasn’t the right person for that. His name is Saint Tom Crauise (TC). He got F in all subjects, afraid of deer, skinny, and many more.
            One of the tests from WBSC was passing the MI3 (Mission Impossible 3). The Saint Claus candidates had to visit remote places to give appropriate  Christmas gifts for the kids there. TC was sent to Nim’s Island.
            But on his trip….
TC: “Oh my God! It’s rainy, no transportation, and wet. Phew…, fortunately…. my cart type is ‘Let’s Get the Beat’. My love is music, music colors my life. So I can come to the  Island soon. Hohohoho…..Let’s go!
            He got very excited and did not realize that he had lost one of the presents on his trip.
TC: “Saint Clause is coming to the island!..Saint Clause is coming to the island..tut tu tut …turut…Yeah…, at least…..only one house left…. If I finish this mission, I will have Kids Choice Awards trophy. Hohohoho…But …heyyyy…where is the last gift?…..I can’t find it here! Oh no….”
            Suddenly, TC heard a little boy crying. The voice was from the last house that had not got the Christmas gift
TC: “Why are you crying?”
LB: “I heard bad news, my father can’t go home because his plane got broken at Quantum of Solace airport.”
TC: “If you haven’t got any gift, will you be as sad as this time?”
LB: “Of course not, I won’t. For me….my father is the nicest gift in the world.”
            Suddenly, a bright idea got into TC’s head.
TC: “Really? I’ve got to go now. Wait for your Christmas gift here. Merry Christmas.”
            So, TC got the true meaning of Christmas. He did not care about the gift anymore--those common gifts. There was something which was very special, the most special gift, indeed, for Christmas. So,  he went to Quantum of Solace quickly and helped the engineer to repair the plane. Then, he went back to his house in North Pole happily because he had done something which was very important to help the little boy. However, he got a little bit disappointed because he was not able to complete the MI3 mission.
            Soon,  the result of the WBSC test was announced.
Headmaster: “Congratulation, TC! You have finished the test well. We sent a spy to watch all of the test participants, and TC was proved successful in performing good attitude and integrity. Now, he is the Saint Claus xxxvii.”

.

>NO MATTER WHAT YOU DO THERE WILL BE CRITICS
>AS LONG AS THERE ARE TESTS, THERE WILL BE PRAYERS IN SCHOOLS…(LOL)



WELCOME : english focus
In our previous edition, we discussed “adjectives” and how to use them in describing something. Now….try to find more adjectives in all written materials here, and pay attention to how they are used in any expressions. Remember, most of them will be used in these constructions:
  1. Noun phrase, e.g.:      Interesting story
                                       (adj)         (N)

  1. S          +         to be +                             adjective
         e.g .It                               is                                interesting
It                      was                   interesting

  1. S  +       (to) get/become/feel  +          adjective
         e.g.She                got                                angry

  1. S    +    (to) make     +            O   +   adjective
 e.g. She                 will make        you       happy

After you get them all, consult us about the result by email (mariaf309@gmail.com

Learning English Through Drama

Welcome English through drama?

Playing drama is not easy, everybody knows it.
But, how amazing......most students love it.
They enjoy performing certain characters, and watching their classmates doing the performance.
To get good performance, you will deal with some skills. Want to know them? Go to http://wel-english1.blogspot.com and read Play With Drama in Welcome English.

In learning English, especially in helping the learners to speak out, interest, motivation, and enjoyment are essential. No doubt, English learners can reach them all through a drama class.

That's why, now...
Our BIM is working with that drama class.
Everyone is busy preparing their own parts...
I am so curious about how great their performance will be...
I also hope.....we are going to be able to record all great performances...
..to be informed on this WELCOME ENGLISH session.

To get "a step ahead to learn English and gain improvement", through poems on WELCOME ENGLISH

WELCOME : poem



THE MIRACLE OF CHRISTMAS

White…the world was so white
It was so quiet, liked a world without a word
Maybe there was some sort of device
That changed the world from its nature
Even if the shape looked like the same

But ..there was a light
It would grant all of our wishes
In the night of its miracle
It was our Savior’s birth
Just have got faith in it
Don’t let the snow light off your light

Are you the one who would succeed my wish?
Or are you the one who would destroy it?
The answers lied within time
The answers could be found in your soul
It’s you…the one, that could make it all possible
You must have faith in your steps
So it would show its truth
An innocent life would look so marvelous
But it could only happen
With the miracle of Christmas

What can you get from this poem?
You should gain something, right? As we have a great idea to get

CHRISTMAS GIFT

At Saint Claus University, at North Pinguin street 0071/2, there was a test WBSC (Wanna Be Saint Claus) that was very well-known. The best graduated student would replace the Saint Claus xxxvi
There was a man that wanted to be a Saint Claus, but it seemed that he wasn’t the right person for that. His name is Saint Tom Crauise (TC). He got F in all subjects, afraid of deer, skinny, and many more.
One of the tests from WBSC was passing the MI3 (Mission Impossible 3). The Saint Claus candidates had to visit remote places to give appropriate Christmas gifts for the kids there. TC was sent to Nim’s Island.
But on his trip….
TC: “Oh my God! It’s rainy, no transportation, and wet. Phew…, fortunately…. my cart type is ‘Let’s Get the Beat’. My love is music, music colors my life. So I can come to the Island soon. Hohohoho…..Let’s go!
He got very excited and did not realize that he had lost one of the presents on his trip.
TC: “Saint Clause is coming to the island!..Saint Clause is coming to the island..tut tu tut …turut…Yeah…, at least…..only one house left…. If I finish this mission, I will have Kids Choice Awards trophy. Hohohoho…But …heyyyy…where is the last gift?…..I can’t find it here! Oh no….”
Suddenly, TC heard a little boy crying. The voice was from the last house that had not got the Christmas gift
TC: “Why are you crying?”
LB: “I heard bad news, my father can’t go home because his plane got broken at Quantum of Solace airport.”
TC: “If you haven’t got any gift, will you be as sad as this time?”
LB: “Of course not, I won’t. For me….my father is the nicest gift in the world.”
Suddenly, a bright idea got into TC’s head.
TC: “Really? I’ve got to go now. Wait for your Christmas gift here. Merry Christmas.”
So, TC got the true meaning of Christmas. He did not care about the gift anymore--those common gifts. There was something which was very special, the most special gift, indeed, for Christmas. So, he went to Quantum of Solace quickly and helped the engineer to repair the plane. Then, he went back to his house in North Pole happily because he had done something which was very important to help the little boy. However, he got a little bit disappointed because he was not able to complete the MI3 mission.
Soon, the result of the WBSC test was announced.Headmaster: “Congratulation, TC! You have finished the test well. We sent a spy to watch all of the test participants, and TC was proved successful in performing good attitude and integrity. Now, he is the Saint Claus xxxvii.”


Hmmm....Santa Claus should be so kind to help us get

Christmas was coming so fast and I thought that I wouldn't pass a nice Christmas that year. But in fact, that was an excellent Christmas.
On the very first day of December, I was alone at my room and thought, "Zzzzz …I have no special plan for this Christmas. So boring. There's nothing to do."
I even could not make any good plans with my friends cause they would spend the holiday with their own families.
In my desperation, an old friend of mine offered me to join his plan to make a sort of reunion with our elementary school mates. I took that invitation immediately, without any hesitation. I thought it would be a great idea to meet my old friends there. Suddenly I felt that I missed them so much…
So, we arranged the time and the place where we would make the rendezvous and of course, decided who would be invited. We've never expected that the rendezvous would get successful. At first we worried it would not run well. We worried that there would be many guys that could not make it. So, it was really surprising us when we found a lot of them were excited to come and join the rendezvous.
It was so perfect when we talked about our stupidity at elementary school as well as our good time at high school, our new mates, even…..our boyfriends and girlfriends. We laughed together and we were happy together. The most unpleasant thing was when it was over. Although we had to part, we did not even think that our friendship would get over so easily.Since then, I have got an idea that Christmas isn't always full of such "all-new style". But , we can make an "old-style Christmas" by inviting and getting together with our old friends, even with our “enemies”. Christmas is the right time to show our love to anyone, isn’t it?

WELCOME : my success
My name’s Anggia Ernes, but you can call me Anggi. I was born in Jakarta, December 22, 1993. My hobbies are reading books, listening to music, and singing. I’m good at playing piano. Some of my achievements are the third and the fifth runner up of story telling competitions. Together with my team, I’ve got the first prize of a band festival.
Here is my unforgettable experience when I joined the Story Telling Competition in St. Luois Senior High School.
A few months ago, I was told that there was an audition held in our English class (BIMP)for story telling competition in St. Luois Senior High School. In fact, I had no ideas at all about that story telling stuff. I was too shy to do funny/attractive movements. But, a miracle happened. I was selected to join that competition.Thanks God… (hmmm.....
"a step ahead to learn English and gain improvement"?)
A lot of things I’ve learnt from this competition--how to speak loudly and clearly, make various and expressive body movements, do my best, and attract the audience interest to my story. Of course I couldn’t do it alone. There were a lot of people who helped me--my parents, my friends, my teachers, especially Ms.Tyas.I couldn’t do that without her guidance and support. Thanks a lot…^^
I felt very…very…very nervous on the competition day, I felt that the time was crawling very slowly. Before did my performance, I said “All I’ll do, I’ll do it for You,God!!” I just tried to give my best, and when I did that… My fear disappeared…Hwffffff……… I did it…I did it… Thanks God… Thanks a lot…And… I passed it….Hohohohoho… So, the next round was waiting for me…
It was getting harder there. I felt a little depressed. Hhhh…That was not over… I thought that my rivals were better…better…and better than I was… I prayed for many times… But my fear wasn’t off like yesterday. I thought I would fail this round… Hix…hix.. I was not sure what I did on stage at that time, I just… passed it. Horrrrrayyyy!!!! Ohhh my God. (hmmm...another

Then, the final round--the greatest round for me. You know why? I felt so relaxed to tell my story.Again, I just tried to give my best, and I did that for God.I just enjoyed doing my storytelling.And..I passed it!!!!Thanks God… Thanks for everything..
I hope, my story will not make you bored…Hohohohoho.. I just wanted to say thank you very much to all of you--My parents, all of my teachers, my friends (who lent me their clothes and supported me). But most of all,I say a great thanks to Him. I wouldn’t be able to do it without His great blessings.He is my everything. God,thanks for everything that You’ve done in my life… I hope this story would be an inspiration for you. I believe that all of you are “stars”. Do your best to praise the Lord!!!

Yeah...Lord will help us to get
"a step ahead to learn English and gain improvement". We will able to do it when we try to do it and believe that we are able to do it!!!!(phew???)
