Dear Diego,

Thank you very much for letting me used your apartment while you were away. I tried
to leave everything just as I found it. You will unfortunately, find one thing missing. I wanted
to do you a favor by cleaning the living room. While I was dusting that beautiful bowl you
keep on the office table, it fell out of my hand and broke.

I am terribly sorry about breaking your bowl. I know that it was a present from your
grandmother and that it means a lot to you. Things like that are irreplaceable. I think,
however, that the bowl can be fixed. It broke into just three large pieces. I have a friend who
is an expert on valuable chine, and I have given her the bowl to repair. You should have it
back in a few days, and I think it will look as good as new.

I hope this solution is satisfactory to you. Again, I am so very sorry this happened. I
will bring you the bowl soon.

Your friend,

Michael

A Biography of An Internet Enterpreneur

Jan Koum is an American internet enterpreneur and computer engineer. He is the CEO
and co-founder with Brian Acton of Whatsapp, a mobile messaging application which was
acquired by Facebook Inc. in February 2014 for US $ 19 Billion.
Koum was born in Kylv, Ukraine on February 24, 1976. He is a Jewish. He grew up in
Fativ, outside Kylv, and moved with his mother and grandmother to Mountain View,
California in 1992, where a social support program helped the family to get a small two-
bedroom apartment, at the age of 16. His father had intended to join the family later, but
finally remained in Ukraine. At first Koum’s mother worked as a babysitter, while he himself
worked as a cleaner at a grocery. By the age of 18, he became interested in programming. He
enrolled at San Jose State University and simultaneously worked at Ernst and Young as
security tester.
In 1997, Jan Koum was hired by Yahoo as an infrastructure engineer, shortly after he
met Brian Acton while working at Ernst & Young as a security tester. Over the next nine
years, they worked at Yahoo. In September 2007 Koum and Acton left Yahoo and took a year
off, traveling around South America and playing ultimate frisbee. Both applied and failed to
work at Facebook. In January 2009, he bought an iPhone and realized that the then-seven-
month-old App Store was about to spawn a whole new industry of apps. He visited his friend
Alex Fishman and the two talked for hours about Koum’s idea for an app over tea at
Fishman’s kitchen counter. Koum almost immediately chose the name WhatsApp because it
sounded like “ what’s up “, and a week later on his birthday, Feb 24, 2009, he incorporated
WhatsApp Inc. in California.
WhatsApp became popular in just a small amount of time, and this caught Facebook’s
attention Facebook’s founder, Mark Zuckerberg first contacted Koum in the spring 2012. The
two began meeting at a coffee shop in Los Altos, California, then began a series of dinners
and walked the hills above Silicon Valley.
On February 9, Zuckerberg asked Koum to have dinner at his home, and formally
proposed Koum a deal to join the Facebook board.
His mother died in 2000 of cancer in the United States, while his father died in Ukraine
in1997.
In 2014, he entered the Forbest list of the 400 richest Americans at position 62, with an
estimated worth of more than seven and half billion dollars. He was the highest-ranked
newcomer to the list that year.

Soccer Story
When I was nine, my soccer team went to a tournament in South Portland. The only reason
we got there was because we didn’t lose a game during the regular season. The first game
was easy for my team. We beat Biddeford five to one. I got one goal and one assist. My
friend Patrick got a hat trick, and Bailey got a goal also.

The next game was a lot tougher. We played Westbrook and beat them one nil. I played
goalkeeper for the entire game. My teammate Josh is the one who scored the only goal of the
game. We barely made the playoff. We were tied with two other teams, but we had more
goals than they did so we got to move on.

The third game was the hardest yet. We would get a goal then they would. This went on for
about four goals then finally my team scored two in a row. This game we played Bonny
Eagle, and the final score was four to six. Our team won, so we went on to semifinals and
played the Massabesic team. We tied them, so we went onto sudden death. In sudden death
they took out one of our midfielders in the box. We got a penalty kick. Our best player took
the kick and put it right in the top corner.

We won, and we’re going to the finals! We played Saco. It was the toughest game I had ever
played as a goalie. I saved eighteen shots. The game was tied until the final minute when
our best player scored. It was one to zero with 56 seconds left. The other team set up for an
attack play. They had seven on offense. They rushed up the field, got past the defense and
shot. I saved the first shot but not the second. They tied the game. We had OT but neither
team scored. We went into a penalty shoot out. Our team got all our shots in, and saved
three of the other team’s shots. We won the finals. We got medals and t-shirts saying that
we were the champions.

We won the South Portland tournament.

Queen AjiBidaraPutih

Muara Kaman lies along the Mahakam River, in eastern Borneo. In the past the area was
a kingdom ruled by Queen AjiBidaraPutih. She was a typical queen of myths: beautiful, wise,
and sensitive. Many princes and kings proposed to her but she always refused them because
she was more concerned with ruling her country and guarding her people.
One day, a Chinese boat came to eastern Borneo. First, the people thought it was a
merchant ship but the boat was loaded with trade goods and highly trained soldiers. Their
envoys brought gold and porcelain to announce the marriage proposal from a prince of China.
The queen didn’t refuse instantly and replied that she had to ponder the proposal first.
After the envoys left the palace, the queen called a court officer and ordered him to
infiltrate the Chinese boat to gather information on the prince. When night fell the officer
sneaked onto the boat, got by all the guards, and finally found the prince’s room. The large
door would not open and he couldn’t find a peek hole, so the officer put his ear to the wall,
trying to catch sounds from inside. He heard that the prince was having his dinner and the
noise of his chewing and slurping surprised the officer. It was like a boar that he had once
heard when he was hunting.
He quickly left the boat and returned to the palace. He reported that the prince must have
been a phantom, not a human. He believed that the phantom could be in a human’s form only
during the daytime. The queen was so surprised and got angry.
On the next day, she refused his proposal. The enraged prince ordered his troops to raid
Muara Kaman. The battle was won by the prince’s huge band of troops. As they drew near to
the palace, Queen AjiBidaraPutih chewed a leaf of betel vine and sang a mantra while
holding it. When she threw it at the Chinese troops, it turned to giant centipedes. The Chinese
troops started to retreat but three centipedes chased them and sank the boat. The site of the
sunken ship is now known as Danau Lipan (Lake of Centipedes), with Chinese treasures
hidden on the lake’s bed.
