Dear Dina,
How are you getting along? It has been quite some times since I wrote to you. I hope you
and your family are doing well. As you can see from the address above, I have moved from
my previous house. My father sold off the double storey terrace house and moved from my
previous to a double storey semi-detached house.
I like the new house. The compound is so much bigger than the old house. There are
more room and we have bigger garden. My father said that we could have a swimming pool
in the garden if we want to.
However, my mother said she would rather have a garden complete with waterfall. As
from me, I would rather have a space for playing football or badminton. I am sure my father
will listen to my mother. Poor me!
How about visiting me and seeing our new house? I have already found a river which is
good for fishing. I think you will enjoy a weekend here. See you soon!

With love,

Actually there was nothing special about my childhood. I lived with my parents in a small village,
and I was just like other country boys. But my life changed when my parents decided to move to Jakarta. At
that time I was only thirteen years old.

Living in a big and modern city is far different from living in a small and traditional village.
However, I thought living in the country was the best moment in my life. In the new place, especially in my
new school, I became shy and nervous. The other boys in my class were tough, and they often laughed at my
country ways. Therefore, I didn’t have any friends.

However, I became more interested in computer. You know, I always liked computer, so I spent
most of my time to read computer books. I was very unhappy at that time, but I am glad this happened
because I finally decided to become a professional programmer. Now I have been trying to get my master
degree in a computer science.

An ant nimbly running in search of food came across a chrysalis that was close to its time to change.
The chrysalis moved and this attracted the attention of the ant, who for the first time realized that it was a
living thing. “Poor, pitiable animal!” cried the ant disdainfully, “what a sad fate yours is! While I can run
around at my pleasure, you lie imprisoned in yourself.” The chrysalis heard all this, but did not respond.
After a few days, when the ant passed the same way, nothing but the shell remained. Wondering
what had happened to its content, the ant felt itself shaded and fanned by the gorgeous wings of a beautiful

QUEEN AJI BIDARA PUTIH

Muara Kaman lies along the Mahakam River, in eastern Borneo. In the past the area was a kingdom
ruled by Queen Aji Bidara Putih. 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 Aji Bidara Putih 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.
