release is not farewell

The day continues to pass. We have been busy with tutoring activities to face the national exam. Yes, at this time the national exam results are purely decisive for graduation for students.

The daily value obtained to fill the rapot is absolutely no influence in determining graduation.

This has an impact on the graduation results of the students. Not infrequently even outstanding students are declared not to graduate because of an inefficient graduation assessment system so it is not known for sure somehow it can happen. Because that's how there is. Confusing graduation grading system indeed.

Pintat students even achievers may be declared not to graduate. While students who study lazy lazy, daily his urgency, many pliers declared pass. Strange indeed. But that's the fact that happened.

This certainly makes students become depressed about the results of the exam later, not least for Echi who is often ranked in the top 5 each on the rapot division, both in odd semesters and even semesters when class increases.

The practice tests, school exams, and national exams have been conducted after several try-outs.

Currently they have not received graduation results, but they are holding a release activity for third-graders or commonly called farewell.

One third-grade teacher stated that the word release sounded more on the meaning of releasing the students to continue at a higher level of education. While the word farewell is considered more to lead to the meaning that we will be separated at the level of education junior high school. After all, our intention is not to separate, but to break away from the predicate of Junior High students.

Why is this activity carried out before we receive the results of graduation? I thought full of questions.

It turns out that one of the reasons is because this is the right time because all teachers can follow this activity. Currently, the teacher council is busy with the latest curriculum implementation training activities. So that automatically some teachers must prepare themselves to do the training.

I stared at all the faces of my teachers and classmates. I see a happy face there.

I also joined the girls in my class who were busy chatting about the future. Which school is the choice of the place where we study will be a conversation. Each of them tells the school of excellence their purpose.

I just kept quiet about their conversation. To be honest, I am currently unable to decide which school to go to and which major.

"Echi, you want to go to school man?" suddenly I was asked by Oca who broke my daydream

"That's it" I replied confusedly. Because I have absolutely no view.

"Why not sign up with us?" oca Suggestions.

"I'm still confused as to what major she will be." I answered honestly.

"Yes we majored in IPS only. Let it be class again." said Oca hopeful.

"But I'm not sure, about his brother I said that I already enrolled me in SMK school that is." Answer Echi slowly

"What you want to do is school, why is it even confused and wants to be arranged so." said Oca later.

"But I'm sure, if my brother would have chosen the best for me." My words are steady

"What do you want to take?" Ask Oca while looking at me.

A few moments later, the event began. After the principal gave a welcome word. And the third-grade teacher delivered a few words of encouragement.

All of us third-graders are welcome to take to the stage to give a choir performance by singing the chorus-style teacher Hymne song at the opera show that makes the atmosphere quiet and full of haru because it is so fond of every lyric in the song.

After our show was over, the first and second graders also showed performances from their respective classes. Some make plays, dances, stand up comedy, even singing and reciting poetry.

Until the last one closes with our show again. It is a traditional dance performance. We are made up of six women and four men.

At the time of her initial rehearsal I was cast as a female dancer. With the formation of two permpuan dancers on the left and right sides flanking four pairs of permpuan dancers and men whose position in the middle.

From the beginning of the practice, I who with low self-confidence could not move my hands and kakin me smoothly like my girlfriend friend who breezed with gurgling.

Until the end I was asked to be a male dancer. Because it moves me stiff so it is more suitable to be a male dancer he said.

And here I am. Wearing a shirt, long black pants, with a knee-length glove wrapped around my waist.

A bun of my hair with bangs dangling on my forehead and hair dangling on either side of my ears in magic with a head covering. Until my appearance that had looked very graceful when singing teacher hymns, it became very changed.

Lipstick that looks bright with a shiny pink color on my lips removed and replaced by wearing a lip tint with a color matching the color of my lips that is rather dark so it looks more natural.

Before going on stage I looked at myself in the mirror for quite a while. I was like a boy, I thought.

We also went on stage with a female formation first interspersed with boys until the last followed by me.

The audience looked surprised to see my performance. Until finally the words that made me almost regret following the advice to become a male dancer.

"Echi, it turns out that you can be a boy too"

"Pantes aja Echi continues, it turns out he is still confused between being a girl or being a guy"

"Echi is better suited to be a boy, more cool"

"bang Echi, I'm on you."

That's how the hysterical scream I heard from under the stage made my guts shrink. But I remained professional to complete my task and do movement after movement until it was finished.

The clock has shown at twelve o'clock fifteen minutes later the event is continued at the dinner.

There was not much chatter when we ate, because the stomach was already hungry and tired after completing the event after the event that had taken place. We finally went home after the event dissolved.
