 My Adolescence

I had my adolescence when I was thirteen.

It started with acne that showed up on my face. It was very annoying. It

lowered my self-esteem and I was embarrassed to come out of my house
and play with friends.
Fortunately, my Mum gave me a good medicine. In three weeks, the acnes
started to vanish although those showed some black spots in my face.

That was my bad experience with adolescence, though there were still lots
of good experience too.

The last day, we spent our time in Sangeh. We could enjoy
the green and shady forest. There were so many monkies.
They were so tame but sometimes they could be naughty.
We could make a close interaction with them. After that, we
went to Sukowati market for shopping. That was my lovely
time. I bought some Bali T-Shirt and souvenirs.

In the evening, we had to check out from the hotel. We went

back home bringing so many amazing memories of Bali.
