MEETING MY IDOL
Afgan has always been my favorite singer. I had always been thinking of how I would feel when I met
him. Then I was suddenly hit by lightning when I found out Afgan was coming to town for a concert in a local
auditorium. A day before the concert, there would be a meet-and-greet event at a local radio station. Feeling
excited, I packed all my Afgan’s CDs to get his signature at the event.

On that bright and sunny Saturday morning, the radio station was full of Afganism (that’s how Afgan’s fans are
called). They sat on the chairs prepared inside the radio station’s lobby. Some stood in rows in the front yard of the
radio station. A spot inside a lobby was prepared with a mini stage for Afgan’s singing performance and a table for
Afgan to sign Afganism’s memorabilia. Finally, after about 40 or 50 minutes wait, Afgan showed up from inside the
radio station. He smiled and waved to all Afganism who had been waiting excitedly saying, “Good morning. How are
you all?” The crowd went crazy. The shouts sounded like a mix of “Fine, thank you” and screams of Afgan’s name.

Then, he started the event by singing his hit single “Dia dia dia”. Afganism went even crazier; they
sang along with him throughout the song. Of course, I did too. I couldn’t take my eyes off this amazing singer who
had released three albums. When he was finished with the song, the host announced that it was time for
autographing the memorabilia. I prepared my CDs and began to stand in the line. When I arrived at the table, I was
speechless. It was unreal just seeing him that close. I thought it was really cool seeing him like that because he
really just felt like a normal person, which was awesome. He asked my name so that he could write it on the CD to
say “To Mia, Love Afgan”. He was also very friendly, so I didn’t feel too nervous when I had a chance to take pictures
with him. He was just an amazing person. That was one of the best days in my personal life history.

MY BIRTHDAY
PARTY
MY BIRTHDAY PARTY

It was takbiran night. It was also my birthday, and nothing happened. Or I had thought nothing would
happen, but I was wrong.

That night, I was watching television with my family when I heard someone lit fireworks in my front
yard. I peeped through my window glass but could see nothing. It was very dark outside. Then I thought it had to
be my cousins who lit the fireworks. Then I plopped down on my sofa again and tried to concentrate on the
television since my mind raced with disappointment that no one gave something special on my birthday.

I shrugged, it was almost the end of the day and I became pessimist. Five minutes later my mobile
beeped. It was a text from my friend asking me to come out. Wondering what was going on, I grabbed my jacket
and hurried to the front door. I was surprised to see her bring a bag full of firework and fire drills. Next I was
surprised to see my other friend come out from the darkness. She brought a beautiful birthday cake on her hands.
Oh my God! I shrieked. Then they gave the cake to me who was too stunned to say anything. I realized I was
blushing furiously because my whole family was watching. Not to mention my neighbors too!
A plain day, or I thought it was before, turned out to be one of the greatest moment in my life. I didn’t even know
how to describe what I felt. Happy was the simplest word.
