During the procession, Tatungs are supposedly possessed by spirits and enter into a trance. They step on blades and pierce their lips, noses, and cheeks with big needles.

MY BICYCLE

I have a bicycle. My bicycle has red color with a little of  blue color. It has multiple gears and of course it also has a chain gear regulator which is located on the handle of the bicycle. I use this to change the position of the chain. The change of the chain position gives impact to the velocity of the bicycle. I got the bicycle from my father when I was still in the fourth grade of  Elementary School. I usually use my bicycle when my mother asks me to buy something to places which are not far from my house. Sometimes, on Sunday morning my friends and I are cycling together, and I always use the bicycle. I love my bicycle very much.

WELCOMING SPEECH

How do you do? Welcome in my blog. My name is Faizal Sidiq Widayanto. I study in Public Senior High School 1 Pontianak. Now, I am in the eleventh grade, exactly in the science program.

May be you are asking what is my purpose make this blog. Well, the answer is to share with you everything about English. I'm sure that most of you have known if English is the international language. Everyday we interact with English but most of us aren't aware of it. Why do I say like that? Now, let's thinking. When you are buying something such as noodles, have you ever read the instruction or the ingredients? If yes, have you ever read them in English? May be most of you don't do that. Whereas, if we want to read them we can get new vocabularies. But, don't only read from noodles because English isn't only in the packs of noodles, it appears in almost every object we see. Even if we want to learn English seriously, it can be our source of income.

May be only that thing that I can share to you now. I hope my blog can be useful for you and can motivates you to learn more about English. See you later.
