Going to Jogjakarta alone is the most memorable experience in my life.
I went to Jogjakarta in my holiday at 3rd semester by train. On Tuesday
morning, 1st of March in 2011, my father saw me off at the station. He
accompanied me before the train left. After that, I just sat in my seat alone
because my seat-mate came from Indramayu. My seat-mate is a 21 years old man
who majored in English at Sanatha Dharma University. We spent our times by
sharing our experience in learning English. In the middle of our conversation,
sometimes my father interrupted us by his calling. He phoned me every hour for
asking me whether I was alright or not. He did that because I never went to a
far place alone, so I could understand about his feelings. After I talked with
my father in the phone, I apologized to my seat-mate for my father who had interrupted
us. He just laughed and said that he had no objection for it, so we could
continue our conversation. Because of our pleasant conversation, we didn’t
notice that the train had arrived at Tugu Station, so we went our separate
ways. Then, I phoned my cousin to pick me up in Tugu Station. She said that she
would be there as soon as possible, and she asked me to wait in the main
entrance of that station. I got confused and didn’t know where the location of
the main entrance was because I never stepped in that station around 8 years. I
just followed crowded people to exit that station. I was really confident and
believe that I was in the right position until my cousin phoned me and said
that she couldn’t find me. She asked me where actually I was. Then, I mentioned
the characteristics of buildings that exist around me. Five minutes later, she
came to me and said that I had waited in the behind entrance, so she couldn’t
find me. I
thought that going to Jogjakarta alone is the most memorable experience because
I have a new pleasant friend, and I know where the main and behind entrance of
Tugu Station are. :)
