Teenage Dream


I’m A Dreamer


It was misty monday morning,the sun shone through windows,it was still cold and made me want to lay still underneath my thick-soft blanket but my alarm awoke me up,i opened my eyes and saw it struck 7 am,i suddenly jumped over from my bed and got to hurry to take a shower,got dressing without combing my hair because i was afraid of being late.

That day was my freshman year in Senior High School,and i was exited for it,i was fed-up with my old junior-high school,with my childish-annoying schoolmates,and especially was bored with my teachers.Lucky me,i wasn’t late i step into the school’s gate with new passion,brand new power and energy,i saw new students were gathering around the field,waiting for where they would be placed in,the command from an old-emphatic man made them to march into twenty,after we were placed into our own class.I was compeletely wondering to be in class,i looked around to find a seat,everyone had sat with their new classmate,i decided to take a seat on the last row with a neat girl,because i had no friends or any relatives in there.I put my heavy bag down in the table and she smiled at me,i smiled back and gave my right hand and i started to make a friend

“Halo,My name is Dewi!what’s yours?”i ask politely

“I am Niken,nice to meet you.” Said her

“Me too.” i replied


That was a little introduction,she kept quite and so did i.I didn’t know what i was going to talk more.The other people were keep chatting with their new friends.Suddenly our class leader- came over and led us what to do in that orientation school.We were led to looking around the school environment to adapt with new condition.It was lot of fun but a little bit tiring,afterwards we had a break-hour.I asked Niken to accompany me to go to cafetaria,she said yes.There was crowded by senior students, niken and i got compeletely lost walking in the frenzy,finnaly i could grab her hand and got out of that cafetaria.We were thirsty , frazzled and got nothing to drink so i deciced to wait until the cafetaria was not crowded anymore.We sat underneath the Akasia tree which was standing strong in the school-yard that protected us from the burning sunlight.


“What a sizzling day today,huh?” i grumbled


“Yes it is,and crappy” said her


“Ha ha ha you’re right! we’re like freaks sitting here,and the others are having a lunch in cafetaria.” i said.


She just laughed out loud.I thought she was very neat and boring person,but actually she was even funny and sweet. I continued talking “Where school are you from anyway?”


“I’m from SMP Peduli Bangsa,and how about you?” said her “


I’m coming from SMP 26,isn’t your school in far from here,is it?”


“Yes it is,but i want to have something new,and bored with the old things.”


She answered with big smile on her face.On my mind i thought like we were the same and we might be good friends.Faraway we saw the people inside the cafetaria was getting fewer,we rushed there in order we still could buy beverages before the bell rang.Unfortunately,we had to queue up just to get a bottle of mineral water and i did take a long minuets,it sucked when the bell rang,but we were just waiting for paying.It could be guessed that we were late getting in class,not Niken and i only but also two girl were.we were four,came into the quiet class and noticed that there were our class-leaders standing in the center and did go towards us and was ready to blow-up.The one was a boy and another was a girl,the girl leader asked us cynical.


“Where have you been,my junior? How dare you come late! Is this your school so you can do anything you all want?”


“We’re sorry but ,” One of us that i hadn’t know what her name was trying to explain the reason but she stopped speaking up when the boy leader loudly yelled straight us


“We don’t want your reason,you’re late and you have to be punished.I have already warned you i hate people who disobey the school rules.Now,get out of the class and clean the toilet,i will check it out later to make sure.”



I saw a cluster of girls in the the right column was laughing at us,i hated them.Of course,we left that room.He was totally terrible.We were looking for the toilet,and started to cleaned it up.


“I hate that man and those girls who laughed at us”


the girl who i hadn’t known her name started grumbling


“So,do we.” niken nodded the sign of agreement


“By the way,We haven’t introduced each other yet.I am Susan and this is my friend Tiara” said the chinese-faced and teeth-braced. We were introcuding ourselves each-other by shaking hands.we chattered about funny things and laughed out loud while we were mopping the floor .And time was up,school was over. We got home.I took a bus to get home.Niken,Susan,and Tiara were picked up because their houses were far. I took a relieve of being home after this tiring day.My mother was working,so my father was.I had two sister and a brother,so my parents had to work hard to cost our lives and educations.I was from the middle-economy class so i had a responsibility to help my parents since i was the oldest.I had to study hard and tried to get a schoolarship for better education beyond like my sister did,she got a schoolarship and lived in dorm house in another city which was far from our hometown. There was nobody home,my little sister and brother might be playing outside.I jumped over my bed and turn on the music.I love listening to Taylor Swift ‘s songs,and i played “Fearless”song as it encouraged me always to reach all my dreams.The harmony brought me into the arms of Morpheus where i had another fantacy world,where all impossible things were real,somewhere that we often supposed it was better than reality.That was which called “DreamWorld”. I was awoken from my deep sleep,and having shower.As usual,i sat in the cradle in balcony of my room,watching the boys were playing kites which were blown by the summer-breeze and the girls were playing hide-and-seek.The sun set down in the west,the twillight came.And it was time to dine.After a dinner,i usually had a study,but due to have-no-lesson because it was still orientation,i just read my favorite book “The diary of anne frank”.I was passionated by her,how she could survive,at least she was a survivor when her family were murderred,and she could write how it felt.

It was not an orientation-school anymore.Niken,Tiara,Susan and i were good friends,we were always together wherever we were.Somebody was good and The other ones were annoying.There were some girls who were rich and powerful but mean.They were consist of 3 girls who always humiliated the nerds,the poor,and the jerks.I didn’t know why when i stepped into class they made me embarrased by yelling


“Hey look,Here she comes! a princess of a mess”
her the curly-haired friend added ”Why when she walks in,i smelled like very terrible,is it coming from her?” “Definitely yes!” said her friends whose face was as soft as velvet


They laughed at me,eventhough the others did not And maybe i was included into the kind of people that should be humilated by them.I felt like i wanted to give punchs on their face,but my friends calmed me down,why i had to have a fight with the dummies.They might have been beautiful,powerful, and rich,but they were like such degenarated.When the lesson on progress,they giggled and kept chatterring.Maybe school was a place to have fun and bully the people they thought ,weirdo.

Time passed by.The circumstance was still the same.The three mean girls kept on bullying their classmates, and of course the junior students,too.There was no any signs they’d stop doing that. It was sort of cloudy day.On the school yard,we were now bestfriends eventhough we were not in the same class.Tiara and Niken were in science ,Susan and I were in social.we were chatting and having snack,Tiara started the conversation


“Where are you guys going to study?”


“I do not know,my parents offer me to have education in Singapore, i will study Accounting and hopefully i can be useful for my father’s company.” said Susan


“How about you Nik?” “I want to study about Medical,i wish my parrents could affrord me to study arboard.Where do you think the best university that’ll be good for me? “wondered her


“I think you’ll be good if you take a medical study in Germany,it’s a center of medical in the world.” i suggested her,and she just nodded her head Then it was tiara’s turn to speak up


“I want to go studying in English Linguistics,but i am still doubtful about what university i will choose,maybe it depends on our grade,isn’t it? and how about you Dew?” asked her


I was shy to tell about my aspires but it was my turn “Uhm,I have not decided it yet” i sighed. I tried to conceal it but my friends made me to tell them about what i wanted to do after graduation.”Actually,i want to study in UK i desire to study the same like Tiara’s,that’s linguistics you know i really love it.I think different languanges are uniqes when spoken by different tounges.And living in the strange place would be awesome as you have to learn about their cultures and customs but you know it may be hard to make it true. I said smilingly when i imagine how it would feel like. Everyone stared at me like i was talking something real.


Then niken said “ Ok,our dreams are so high,so why don’t strunggle to reach it by going to class and studying hard because the bell has already rang rather than daydreaming in here. That conversation in the school might have been the last for us.Because we were getting started to prepare for The National Final Examintion.The students are busy with courses and Mid-Tests.We’re four rarely met and of course we missed when we spent time together.

Count down to Final Examination,It finally came the day we were waiting for.The First day, i felt like my knees were shaking,i prayed all the time in order to be given an ease in everything i efforted.Day 1,Day 2,Day 3,Day 4, were already passed well.We just had to wait for an announcement for graduation.

Time flew by so fast.It was the edge of senior high school.Friday Morning,The Parents of students were placed in the School Main-Hall.After session-by-session compeleted,it was time for graduating when my name was called-on,i felt like full of joyful so everyone was Tonight we had a prom party.It was a magical stage.The teachers and students were all in one.On the edge of occasion,we were hugging,crying of this farewell.I would miss this time all of my life.What a moment it was. Susan was already accepted in National University in Australia.Niken prepared for his upcoming study in UGM.Tiara was accepted in University of Padjajaran.And i was busy applying the schoolarships abroad,but i was accepted in Local University.I was grateful and hopefully my applicant would be accepted as soon as possible.

It had been five years,we were separeted after graduation.I have a reunion with my friends and we had a visit to our school.In the Evening,the school was still on progress,We sneaked into the school.No much had changed,but the school building looked older than 5 years ago.We looked around the boys was playing basketball in the Field,the other side Cheer-leader seemd like having reashal.We bought some snack and sit on the our favorite place.I suddenly remembered about the three-mean girls and niken told me one of them was still living in this city,and did not continue her study,and two another were unknown.I felt pity to them but that’s life. We were laughing out loud remembering the past,about the silly dreams we ever told each other.I woke up in the morning and got an acceptance for studying in UK. I believe now dreams is our power,our strenght to reach everything we want and our hope to make us keep moving,eventhough people make laugh at you dream,it is not because you’re a silly dreamer,it’s because you know what you will do and having a another fantasy wonderland is not wrong.Isn’t it?
