Hey
everyone! A few days ago my class and I went to Sentul, Richie the farmer to do
BLT. BLT is “Basic Leadership Training” or some people might call it “LDK”
(Latihan Dasar Kepempimpinan). We went there for 3 days, 2 nights. From the 5
November – 7 November. We went there together with a tronton. We started our journey together at Nizamia Andalusia
School, 5 – 11 – 15.
Before
we arrive there, we had to walk for about 10-15 minutes, but since we were all
carrying heavy bags, it seems a lot longer than it should. We arrived at the
place and we all sat down while the “kakak Pembina” from Kaki langit, the
outbound organization that we’re using fro BLT, explained about what we are
going to do for the next 2 days. The “kakak Pembina’s” names are Kak Ranto, Kak
Anto, Kak Agus, Kak Umar, and Kak Roy. After we introduce ourselves to them, we
had our welcoming drinks and snacks.
Richie
the farmer was a very peaceful place, the breeze of the wind you can feel
anywhere anytime. The view was pretty awesome! With baby cows/calf and a few
goats, also there was chickens as well. At first it was really hot, but as the
sky gets darker, the wind gets harder. It was really cold at night
We started our first activity, so
basically, each person have a paper with their name on it, and that paper is
hidden somewhere around there. Each person needs to get their paper as fast as
they could, and of course teamwork is allowed, so if one of us found someone
else’s paper, we are allowed to tell/give it to them. After each of us found
our paper, we look at the paper and there’s a color on it and the color tells
us our group. My group’s color was Orange kind of yellow color and consist of
Rasya, Abel, Dewa, Salma, and Me. After that we did more activities in groups
like, the first one was each group had to make a group song and a group cheer
(yel-yel). Then, we had to show everybody the song and the cheer.
The next activity was building/making
our own tent. Since there was 6 girls, we divided in to 3. I made my tent with
Salma, Nafisa with Mazia and Merrisa with Tara. IT WAS SO HARD! Yes they showed
us how to make it before we try to do it. But, when they were making the tent,
it looks a lot easier. I guess expectations vs reality. At the end, kak Anto
helped me and salma until our tent is done J.
As soon as we finished making our tent, the sweet sound of adzan Dzuhur hit our
ears. We quickly head to the bamboo not so big “shelter” we call Aula. We did
our Dzuhur prayers there. After we finished our praying, kak Umar chose one of
the boys to do qultum (Islamic Education/teaching) in front of everyone, the
first one up was Abdullah.
Next activity! Since there was only
17 of us we were divided into 2 groups. My group was Mazia, Tara, Adil,
Ghifarry, Kamil, Egar, and Abel. We played a game called “ball game”. What you
do is there is one plastic ball, then one person will hold that ball, then that
person will need to throw another person that ball while saying their name and
the person that they’re going to throw the ball to’s name (example: Kamil to
Adil) and the person that received the ball say thank you (thank you Kamil) do
that over and over again until all the person in the group got they’re change
of receiving and throwing the ball. We will see how fast we can finish the
game. My group’s high score was about 6 seconds (I think), but unfortunately
the other group’s high score was half of a second (I know right! Crazy!). Then,
after that game we played “Concentration Game”.
The next one was called Trust fall,
like how it sounds, we have to fall down and trust our friends to catch us. At
first, I didn’t want to go, but the kak Umar said that everyone have to ha a go
at falling. You felt a rush in your heart right before you fall, after you make
your first move to start falling the rush stopped and it became a feeling like
you just had to trust your friends, then… it’s the relief, your friends just
got you. I never thought I would say it, but I want to do it again!
We all rest for a bit, while we
wait for adzan Ashar, the sky was crying as small droplets of liquid was
falling from the sky, the rain was really hard we had to get inside. We prayed
Ashar and we decided to eat first. The food there was pretty good! We prayed
Maghrib, then we all played a game called “Pesawat Tempur” and “building
Block”, my group won “Building Block”. Then, after sholat Isya, kak Umar taught
us how to make a proposal for business. My group made a proposal for “Lebaran
Anak Yatim”. When we were making the proposal, suddenly the light turned off,
everyone was screaming in shock. We used our flash light to continue writing
the proposal. Then, we showed our proposal to everybody. After all the fun of
the day, we were all told to sleep. But since it was raining outside, we didn’t
sleep in our tent because it was soaking wet. We all slept in the “Aula” in our
sleeping bags. Right before we sleep, bu emi gave the girls a surprise of
relief, she said that we don’t have to use our “kerudung”/veil for sleeping,
YAY!
In the morning, we woke up early to
pray tahajud, after that we prayed Subuh. When the sky was brighter, we all
went for a walk. We walked past broken houses that was on rent. It was really
fun walking in the morning. We stopped our walk right behind prabowo’s house.
We had to go back the same way. We were all so hungry by then, we made our own
breakfast and my group had toasted bread and Nutella. After we all were filled
up, we played a game called “Blind Lead” in this game we had to pair up, I
paired up with Salma. I had to guide Salma whose eyes were covered, but I
cannot us physical interactions so only sounds. And she has to take the purple
straws which are scattered around the field. Then, still with covered eyes, she
has to make the sentence “Nizamia Andalusia”. When she Is done, we switch. Salma
guide me and I collect the straws.
This post is already long, so I
will make a part 2 of it! Thank you for reading My class’s journey! Hope you enjoy it as much as I do!
