Now I want to tell you about MEGANTARA. MEGANTARA is a festival that held by SMA Negeri 3 Bandung on September 10, 2016. This festival is slightly different from other festival because this festival is a cultural festival that introduce Indonesian culture from another province. From this festival, I can learn about many culture in Indonesia.  

On September 10, 2016, at 7 a.m., there was parade, I joined the parade with other 10^th grade student of SMAN 3 and with kindergarten students. We gathered at Bali Street and started walk around at 8 a.m. We passed Belitung Street, Sumatera Street, Merdeka Street, Jawa Street, and finnaly we finish at Bali Street. It’s so tiring. 

After parade, I went home to take a break and change my clothes from kebaya to casual clothes. I wore print shirt, black jeans, and shoes. I came back to Bali Street at 2 p.m. with my friend. I directly went to the gate and exchange my ticket with drink. Before it, at the gate, my bag was checked by committee. I just brought my purse and my phone.

I missed some performance such as Rampak kendang from Darul Hikam Junior High School, Studio Puri Hamdani, Puppet Show from Putra Giri Harja 3, and Anklung performance from KPA 3. Around 5 p.m. there was fashion show from 10^th grade of SMAN 3 that each class send three person for fashion show. From my class, we send Ryu whose represent West Sulawesi, Dira whose represent Yogyakarta, and Timo whose represent Nusa Tenggara Timur.

I went to mushola to pray. After pray, I walk around to get some food because I’m hungry. I bought crispy chicken and lemon mojito. The lemon mojito was so refreshing and the crispy chicken was not bad. I saw some people brought a cup of ice cream. So, I bought a cup of ice cream, mmm.., I bought two scoops because I love ice cream hahaha.

T'ST (Tiloe’s Theater) was perform about Indonesian culture and Western culture. I think their performance was great. After that OSD from ITB was perform, they wore unique costum. And after that The Changcuters was on the stage, they perform about 8 song, and they were soo great and energic, I enjoyed their performance even though my feet was hurt cause standing too long.  Mmm, I stood about for 4 hours. After The Changcuters, RAN was on the stage, I went out from the crowd cause my feet was so hurt and search for chair for sit. And I sit on the ground cause there was no empty chair. I watched RAN from far away.

At 10 p.m. I went home. It’s very tiring and unforgettable day. I’ll wait for next festival next year!
