Putri Tandampalik
King of Luwu had a very beautiful daughter named Princess Tandampalik. One day
King of Bone, from far away, paid a visit to Luwu in order to propose Princess Tandampalik
for his son, Prince of Bone. According to the culture, King of Luwu could not have a son-in-
law who lived very far from him. Otherwise, his family would suffer from terrible diseases.
However, he knew if he refused it, kingdom of Bone would attack Luwu.
After accepting the proposal, a bad thing happened. Princess Tandampalik was ill of
skin rash. Since the disease could be infectious, the king put the princess in a remote island
named Wajo Island, accompanied by some soldiers. Princess Tandampalik was sad but she
didn’t want many people to be infected.
Several days after Princess Tandampalik lived in Wajo Island, an albino cow came to
her. The cow licked Princess Tandampalik's skin. Amazingly, the disease was cured.
In the meantime, Prince of Bone was sailing in the sea. He landed on Wajo Island.
He was so surprised to see a very beautiful girl there.
"Who are you, beautiful girl? Do you live here?" asked Prince of Bone.
Princess Tandampalik then explained everything. Prince of Bone had heard about her before.
He was so happy that he finally met her. He immediately brought Princess Tandampalik and
the soldiers back to Luwu Kingdom. The King of Luwu was so happy that her daughter was
cured. Not long after that, the King held a wedding party for her daughter and Prince of
Bone.

Elizabeth Alexandra Mary, or Queen Elizabeth II, was a beloved and iconic figure in
British culture. She received a good education and had bright intelligence from both
parents. Her reign lasted for seventy years, making her the longest-reigning monarch in
British history.
The Queen celebrated two birthdays every year. Born on April 21 st, 1926, in
Mayfair, London, her official birthday was in June due to the tradition of a celebratory
parade, as April was too cold for such events.
There were some interesting facts about the Queen. At 18, she was trained to be a
mechanic and a military truck driver. She was a part of the Women's Auxiliary Territorial
Service during World War II. There, she learned how to drive a truck and change a spark
plug. In 1976, she became the first head of state to send an email, marking the early days
of the internet in England.
After her father's passing in February 1952, Elizabeth became head of the
Commonwealth and Queen regnant of seven independent Commonwealth countries. They
are the United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, Pakistan, and
Ceylon.
She passed away on September 8 th, 2022, in Balmoral Castle, with her death
attributed to old age. Her favorite flowers, dahlias, and sweet peas covered the Queen's
coffin, symbolizing lasting commitment, departures, and goodbyes.

El Niño
Indonesia is now grappling with unusually high temperatures believed to be the result
of El Nino. Experts are expressing concerns that this weather phenomenon may escalate
into what they have dubbed the "Gorilla El Nino".
El Niño means Little Boy in Spanish. The term was originally used by fishermen of
northern Peru to describe a warm southward coastal current that occasionally develops
around the Christmas season. Now meteorologists use the term to describe large increases
in sea surface temperatures in the eastern and central equatorial Pacific that occur at
irregular intervals.
Episodes of El Niño typically last nine to 12 months, but can sometimes last for years.
El Niño events occur every two to seven years, on average, but they don’t occur on a
regular schedule.
El Niño can affect our weather significantly, thus El Niño events are closely watched by
meteorologists. Its strong event is capable of altering weather patterns in many parts of the
world. One of the most predictable consequences of a strong El Niño is a change in rainfall
patterns over Indonesia. During El Niño years, rain that is normally centered over Indonesia
and the far western Pacific shifts eastward into the central Pacific; as a result, parts of
Indonesia experience drought. El Niño causes a decrease in rainfall so that the dry season
will be longer.

The peacock was a handsome bird. He had beautiful feathers with many colors. The crane
was a plain bird with dull feathers. His feathers were just black and grey. One day, the peacock
was in the forest, and he met the crane. The peacock looked at the crane up and down. Then, he
pulled his face. “Why are you looking at me like that?” the crane asked. “You are so plain! Your
feathers are dull, and they don’t shine at all. They are just black and grey. Look at me! My
feathers are all the colors of the rainbow, and they shine!” the peacock replied.
The crane smiled because he was happy with himself and his dull feathers . At that
moment, a playful lion cub came along. He ran up to the two birds. The crane didn’t really want
to play with the lion because he knew that the lion would eat him up. He spread his wings and
flew up into the sky. The peacock preened his feathers, and he began to run. Too late! The lion
cub caught him. He grabbed him by the tail.
The crane reached the clouds, and he looked down. He saw the lion cub and the peacock.
The lion cub had the peacock’s beautiful feathers in his mouth. The crane said to himself, “What a
shame! The poor peacock isn’t very fast! I hope his feathers will grow back.”

Last weekend, I went to a music festival with my friends. We had been looking
forward to the event for months and we were all excited to see our favorite artists
perform live.
When we arrived at the festival, we were greeted by a huge crowd of people. There
were several stages set up, and each one had a different performer. We walked around,
checked out the different stages, and eventually settled on a spot near the main stage.
The first performer was a local band, and they were great. We danced and sang
along to their music. After their set, we grabbed some food from one of the food trucks
and continued to enjoy the festival. As the day went on, more and more people arrived
and the atmosphere became even more energetic. We saw some amazing performances
of well-known artists, but one of the highlights of the festival was when our favorite band
took the stage. We had been waiting for this moment for months, and it did not
disappoint us at all. They played all of our favorite songs, and we sang along at the top of
our lungs.
As the night went on, the festival began to wind down. We were all tired but happy.
We had spent the day listening to great music, eating good food, and hanging out with
our friends. It was an amazing story of us that we will never forget.
