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.

Contoh 2 My First Experience to Ride Motorcycle
One day, when I was ten years old, my father bought an old motorcycle. That was
" Honda 75". I think it was small light object and easy to ride it. I persuaded my
father to teach me to ride " Honda 75 ". Firstly, my father refused my request and
promised that he would teach me two or three years later, but I still whimpered.
Finally, my father surrendered and promised to teach me. He began to teach me
riding the motorcycle around a field in my village. My father was very patient to
give me some directions. I was very happy when I realized my ability to ride a
motorcycle. " Yes, I can ". One day later, when I was alone at home, I intended to
try my riding ability. So, myself tried bravely. All ran fluently in the beginning,
but when I was going back to my home and I must passed through a narrow
slippery street, I got nervous. I lost my control and I fell to the ditch.

After that, I told my father about the last accident. I imagined my father would be
angry and never let me ride again. But the reality is exactly on the contrary, my
father was very proud of me. He just gave me some advices and since that
accident, I got my father's permission to ride motorcycle. Contoh 3 A Page from
A Girl's Diary Tuesday, September 30th, 2008
It was takbiran night. It was also my birthday, and nothing happened. Or I had
thought nothing would happen, but I was wrong. That night, I was watching
television with my family when I heard someone lit fireworks in my front yard. I
peeped trough my window glass but could see nothing. It was very dark outside.
Then I thought it had to be my cousins who lit the fireworks. Then I plopped
down on my sofa again and tried to concentrate on the television since my mind
raced with disappointment that no one gave something special on my birthday. I
shrugged, it was almost the end of the day and I became pessimist. Five minutes
later my mobile beeped. It was a text from my friend asking me to come out.
Wondering what was going on, I grabbed my jacket and hurried to the front door.
I was surprised to see her bring a bag full of firework and fire drills. Next I was
surprised to see my other friend come out from the darkness. She brought a
beautiful birthday cake on her hands. Oh my God! I shrieked. Then they gave the
cake to me who was too stunned to say anything. I realized I was blushing
furiously because my whole family was watching. Not to mention my neighbors
too!
A plain day, or I thought it was before, turned out to be one of the greatest
moment in my life. I didn’t even know how to describe what I felt. Happy was the
simplest word.
