HOLIDAY AT HOME
Last thursday was my day off. I didn’t go anywhere. I just stay at home for two
weeks to did the same activities routinely, over and over again. I felt that
was the worst day I have ever passed.
I woke up earlier and did subuh prayer. After that, I
had breakfast with my family in the morning. At 08.00 am, I turned on computer
and played many games. Not felt, it was 10.00 o’clock, I rushed to take a bath
to freshen my body.
Then, I watched my favorite TV programs until it almost
midday. At 01.00 pm, I went to bathroom to ablution and immediately did zuhur
prayer. Then, I had lunch and helped my mother to clean the house.
Because I was tired, I felt asleep on the couch.
Unexpectedly, after waking up I had a guest who could cheer me up, my aunt came
with her child. I kept playing with my nieces until nightfall.
Although just a home holiday, at least to refresh my mind
from the routine activities in the office.

LKPD 1.bBattle of Surabaya
The Battle of Surabaya was fought between
pro-independence Indonesian soldiers and militia against British and British
Indian troops as a part of the Indonesian National Revolution.
The peak of the
battle was in November 1945. The battle was the heaviest single battle of the
revolution and became a national symbol of Indonesian resistance.
Fighting broke out on 30 October after the British commander, Brigadier A. W.
S. Mallaby was killed in a skirmish. Although the Colonial forces largely
captured the city in three days, the poorly armed Republicans fought for three
weeks, and thousands died as the population fled to the countryside.
The battle and
defence mounted by the Indonesians galvanised the nation in support of
independence and helped garner international attention. For the Dutch, it
removed any doubt that the Republic was not simply a gang of collaborators
without popular support. It also had the effect of convincing Britain that
wisdom lay on the side of neutrality in the revolution; within a few years, in
fact, Britain would support the Republican cause in the United Nations.
Considered a
heroic effort by Indonesians, the battle helped galvanise Indonesian and
international support for Indonesian independence. 10 November is celebrated
annually as Heroes’ Day.
