Topic: Meeting an old Highschool Mates at the Bookstrore
There are 2 people contained in this dialog, Yusita and Delsia. They were graduated
from same highschool and attend in same university in Surabaya. But, at the
freshman-year, Delsia decided to enrolled in another university because she took
science and political major as her dream become true. One day, as coincidence they
met each other after a several years in the bookstore. Let’s take a look the dialog.
Yusi: *Hitting someone’s shoulder* “Ough, I am really sorry. I don’t mean to hit
you because I’m in hurry”
Delsia: “Oh that’s okay. I’m fine. Wait, seems like I know you because your face
is familliar to me”
Yusi: “Pardon me?”
Delsia: “Aha, I remember you. Yusi, don’t you? I’m Delsia. We were attend in same
highschool and university in the freshman-year. Don’t you remember me?”
Yusi: “Wait. Oh God, I just recognized you. You changed so much. How are you,
Delsia?”
Delsia: “I’m great. How about you?”
Yusi: “I’m fine too. Oh my God, it’s been a along time since I saw you last 3 years
ago maybe”
Delsia: “It’s true. That I have not seen you in a while”
Yusi: “So, I heard that you made achievement enrolled in the science and political
major, that’great! Congratulations”
Delsia: “Thank you. That’s what I’ve been dreaming of become true. But, there are
also something that I still have to figure it out in this major, like a lot of assignment
to review on international journal, make a group discussion about recent issue, and
also the profesor it’s getting my nerve because they aren’t easily giving a score,
urgh”
Yusi: “Hahahah, actually it happened on me too. You know, college isn’t easy to
pass as we first thought. Btw, what are you doing here?”
Delsia: “Hahaha, yeah you are right. Oh, I am looking for political books as my task
literature, how about you?”
Yusi: “Oh, I am looking for this hype-novel recently. It written by Mark Manson.
But, I don’t easily remember the title, do you know it?”

2. Delsia: “Ahaa, I see. The title is “The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck”. You should
read it. Highly recommended to be on list of self-improvement book”
Yusi: “That’s what I’m talking about. I’ll take one. Yeah, this book is really fit with
me whose a deep-thinker, ahahah”
Delsia: “Yes. Oh, maybe we can arrange a time to have a coffee if you got spare
time”
Yusi: “I would love to, Delsia. I’ll call you as soon as I have a free-time. Are you
still using your old number on Whatsapp?”
Delsia: “Yes. We can keep in touch by Whatsapp chat”
Yusi: “Great. Okay Delsia. I have to go now. It’s nice that we can meet by
coincidence and have small talk. I’ll see you”
Delsia: “Okay. Me too, I’m really happy to see you next time. Bye!”

3. Writing A Letter
To my incredibly beautiful, overwhelmingly intelligent, strong-willed world
traveller, Wijayanti Hutami in Deutsch.
First, I would like to start by saying how much I miss you and that I think about
you all of the time. There’s never a happy moment where I don’t wish you were by
my side experiencing it with me and there’s never a sad moment that I don’t wish
you couldn’t fix by just bringing over your story and having a sleepover. I know
it’s selfish to miss you as much as I do, but it’s true: I just wish you were home.
I know that sounds bad and I know you’re doing amazing things but I can’t help
thinking about how hard it is not to see your face every week, hear about your days,
and turn to you with everything. The time difference makes contact almost
impossible and since I’ve gotten so busy, I know I’ve slacked on trying as hard. But
I want you to know that I think about you constantly. I wonder what you’re doing,
what cool library you’re going to, what delicious food you’re eating, what you’re
learning, and what adventures you’re going on out in the world. Never second guess
how much I care about you and want you around.
Second, I want to tell you how enormously proud I am of you and how happy I am
that I can call you my best friend. You, with the passion for what you do, with the
insatiable hunger for new experiences, and the obsession you have with living
authentically, you amaze me. I am blown away by your spirit, am in awe of your
capacity for living and I am so happy to know you.
You are my inspiration every day, even from so far away, and you have to know
how I think about the decisions I make through the framework of whether or not it
would make you proud to be my friend. You’re such an incredible person and I
know you are learning incredible amounts abroad. Don’t waste it, breathe in every
breath you can of European air, eat every crepe, and suck down that pint because
those are the memories that will make you smile when you don’t expect to. I know

4. that you are living fantastically and it makes me so happy to know you’re doing
what you’ve always wanted to do.
Thank you for following your dreams. Seeing you doing something beautiful with
your university life is the best gift that you could ever give me as a friend. I love
knowing that you are adding to your happiness and can’t wait to see how you will
have grown as a person. I love knowing that you’re doing what you love to do, and
love knowing that you’re giving it your all.
Please enjoy the rest of your time there. Truly experience every minute of it and
enjoy being yourself in a new place surrounded by new people. But know that I
can’t wait for you to get back, can’t wait to hug you at the airport just like you did
when I got home, can’t wait to go to cofee shop with you and talk about things we
love, can’t wait to come back to your home in Surabaya, can’t wait for more
sleepovers, more movie nights, and just generally more of you in my life. Thank
you for being you and thanks for being my best friend, Taami.
Sincerely,
Your lovely bestie,
Yusi
