During my last week in Samarinda, Regina invited to a lots of activities and places to go such as cafe's. First, I attended their badminton session. Mega told me that playing badminton is one of the common activities that they do after school. It is a way for them to relax and having fun. The court is located on a place with a difficult road. I say "difficult" as it is not fully cemented yet. It's inside is filled with two badminton court and a mini store where you can buy some food and drink while playing.


I get to played with Dinda, Bonita and Oji in a 2v2 match. I pair up with Dinda, while Oji is with Bonita. It is an intense battle between the both of us, teaching each other when someone got a point. "Man I'm energized!" I thought to myself as it is been years since I played one. I think the last time that I hold the racket is when I was in grade 5. My cousins and I played always played badminton outside our house every weekend, and the shuttlecock always end up in the water adjacent to the road. Playing it again made me relieve those memories.


In the end, it is Bonita and Oji that won the match. It is an intense and fun match! But for now, I decide to go outside to cool myself off. There I was able to talk to other of my friends, Iska, Bonita and Regina without the work limiting us. It is a fun, interesting and relaxing conversation. I played another round before ending it with a group photo. I will miss everyone very much! I wish for their success in future endeavor and that they will achieve their goals and dreams in the future. See you on top everyone!!
