**[ENG]** Hello fellow hivers, how's ur life? I hope y'all doing well :D Formerly, i've told u that i took an English course at PEC (Practical Education Center). But now i've finished it for a year. Alhamdulillah, my English skills improved thanks to that. Now, i continue my studies to high school. I'm currently studying at Alusi Islamic Vocational High School. This school is owned by Al-Maisyaroh Islamic Education Foundation. The location is at Kampung Sawah Indah, Bojonggede, Bogor, West Java, Indonesia. (wait... do i really need to mention this detailed address?) I started study here since July 2023. I'm a 10th grader now. I'm majoring in office management. That's why i've been inactive on Hive lately. Sorry bout that. Btw, did u know? 3 days ago, exactly on August 17th 2023, it was a greatly important day for our country. The 78th Indonesian Independence day! It was a very historic day. On that day, in 1945, Indonesia was free from colonialism and declared independent. That's not an easy thing at all. Our national heroes, for many years they've sacrificed and fought against the Dutch and Japanese colonial for the sake of independence and Indonesians future life. Yeah, it's a very meaningful day for all of Indonesians. So that's why we celebrate it every year on August 17th. ![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmQTMwC5qFSe6X3SgYPtdgt4yQ95UQfhTnDXbFuhGwD5KV/img_0.2838886242721059.jpg) ^The^ ^flag-raising^ ^ceremony^ ^commemorating^ ^the^ ^78th^ ^Indonesian^ ^Independence^ ^Day^ Every schools in Indonesia celebrate Independence Day with a flag-raising ceremony, and so does our school. All of us students and teachers attended in this ceremony. In my opinion, the best part of this ceremony is the Flag Hoisting Troops. Yep, they're the chosen ones from each grade and they've been trained for weeks so they can be this great in the ceremony. ![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmP4dFmMm8dWhcy4Qu3LD1gcirRjc917usPFBWfFLXcUid/img_0.5291582739784051.jpg) ^Flag^ ^Hoisting^ ^Troops^ ![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmVjTMPMAF1y3Ei3jtWY6De73mDidNx9ZMRAquphi8sZz9/img_0.5631020745466472.jpg) ![](https://images.ecency.com/DQme1DtfgXN4NdsXqEHbZAVvKy5gGbXmE1FcQ9XXPAVqizj/img_0.06246229798414325.jpg) ^Red^ ^&^ ^white^ ^flag^ ^raising^ ![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmR4xGj9cDT9nGpYx3YBgaQCtrBHgFURri1YPSV8xeNYrC/img_0.7227199047871401.jpg) ![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmawGg3MSS5AsNTs3Zct6tffLeUbfotuf7w1QNqG8jr5cv/img_0.9994318954418089.jpg) ^Flag^ ^hoisting^ ^troops^ ^in^ ^the^ ^front^ ^of^ ^Ceremonial^ ^Inspector^ ![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmeLESr2qiF8AfeZ47Bn1oEyuQRUrHZnqWnrZ1HSpMeC28/img_0.014926440462584921.jpg) ![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmNkBtS9VWdfcDAq6y1SF1Fj6K1vofPtpBrgSS7hL6cqDZ/img_0.5461837348151094.jpg) ![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmUAzyc1QRsy5ku42H953y9QCFMF1Dmic5jngTrDYzFrpe/img_0.8305518090608909.jpg) ^The^ ^choir^ ^group^ ![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmdh3RTtkJai3ymZ7kq1dmxL7NntvGqpsXPkDGywz37eAt/img_0.7678082955696894.jpg) ^Speech^ ^delivered^ ^by^ ^the^ ^Chairman^ ^of^ ^the^ ^Al-Maisyaroh^ ^Islamic^ ^Foundation^ Besides the flag-raising ceremony, there were also several performances held by the students after the ceremony.

That's all about how we celebrated the Indonesian Independence Day at our school. Thanks a bunch for visiting my vlog. And see u next time! **[IND]** Halo para Hivers semuanya, bagaimana kabar kalian? Aku harap kalian sehat-sehat saja :D Sebelumnya, aku pernah bilang bahwa aku kursus bahasa Inggris di PEC (Practical Education Center). Tapi sekarang aku sudah selesai selama setahun. Alhamdulillah, kemampuanku dalam berbahasa Inggris lumayan meningkat berkat itu. Sekarang, aku melanjutkan sekolah ke jenjang yang lebih tinggi. Saat ini aku sekolah di SMK Islam Alusi. Sekolah ini dimiliki oleh Yayasan Pendidikan Islam Al-Maisyaroh. Lokasinya berada di Kampung Sawah Indah, Bojonggede, Bogor, Jawa Barat, Indonesia. (Bentar... Perlukah aku sebut alamatnya sedetail ini?) Aku mulai bersekolah disini sejak bulan Juli 2023. Aku baru kelas 10 sekarang. Aku mengambil jurusan Otomatisasi Tata Kelola Perkantoran (OTKP). Itulah sebabnya aku akhir-akhir ini tidak aktif di Hive. Maaf soal itu. Ngomong-ngomong, apa kalian tahu? 3 hari yang lalu, tepat pada tanggal 17 Agustus 2023, itu merupakan hari yang benar-benar penting bagi negara kami. Yaitu Hari Kemerdekaan Indonesia yang ke-78! Hari tersebut sangatlah bersejarah. Pada hari itu, di tahun 1945, Indonesia telah bebas dari penjajahan dan dinyatakan merdeka. Hal tersebut tidaklah mudah sama sekali. Para pahlawan nasional, selama bertahun-tahun mereka telah rela berkorban dan berjuang melawan penjajah dari Belanda dan Jepang demi kemerdekaan dan kehidupan masa depan bangsa. Ya, ini adalah hari yang sangat berarti bagi seluruh rakyat Indonesia. Jadi karena itulah kita merayakannya setiap tahun pada tanggal 17 Agustus. ![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmQTMwC5qFSe6X3SgYPtdgt4yQ95UQfhTnDXbFuhGwD5KV/img_0.2838886242721059.jpg) ^Upacara^ ^pengibaran^ ^bendera^ ^memperingati^ ^Hari^ ^Kemerdekaan^ ^Indonesia^ ^yang^ ^ke-78^ Setiap sekolah di Indonesia merayakan Hari Kemerdekaan dengan upacara pengibaran bendera, begitu juga dengan sekolah kami. Kami para siswa dan guru semuanya ikut serta dalam upacara ini. Menurutku, bagian terbaik dalam upacara ini adalah Pasukan Pengibar Bendera (Paskibra). Yap, mereka adalah yang terpilih dari setiap kelas dan telah terlatih selama berminggu-minggu sehingga mereka bisa sehebat ini dalam melaksanakan upacara. ![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmP4dFmMm8dWhcy4Qu3LD1gcirRjc917usPFBWfFLXcUid/img_0.5291582739784051.jpg) ^Flag^ ^Hoisting^ ^Troops^ ![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmVjTMPMAF1y3Ei3jtWY6De73mDidNx9ZMRAquphi8sZz9/img_0.5631020745466472.jpg) ![](https://images.ecency.com/DQme1DtfgXN4NdsXqEHbZAVvKy5gGbXmE1FcQ9XXPAVqizj/img_0.06246229798414325.jpg) ^Pengibaran^ ^Bendera^ ^Merah^ ^Putih^ ![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmR4xGj9cDT9nGpYx3YBgaQCtrBHgFURri1YPSV8xeNYrC/img_0.7227199047871401.jpg) ![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmawGg3MSS5AsNTs3Zct6tffLeUbfotuf7w1QNqG8jr5cv/img_0.9994318954418089.jpg) ^Paskibra^ ^berhadapan^ ^dengan^ ^Inspektur^ ^Upacara^ ![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmeLESr2qiF8AfeZ47Bn1oEyuQRUrHZnqWnrZ1HSpMeC28/img_0.014926440462584921.jpg) ![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmNkBtS9VWdfcDAq6y1SF1Fj6K1vofPtpBrgSS7hL6cqDZ/img_0.5461837348151094.jpg) ![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmUAzyc1QRsy5ku42H953y9QCFMF1Dmic5jngTrDYzFrpe/img_0.8305518090608909.jpg) ^Kelompok^ ^paduan^ ^suara^ ![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmdh3RTtkJai3ymZ7kq1dmxL7NntvGqpsXPkDGywz37eAt/img_0.7678082955696894.jpg) ^Amanat^ ^yang^ ^disampaikan^ ^oleh^ ^Ketua^ ^Yayasan^ ^Pendidikan^ ^Islam^ ^Al-Maisyaroh^ Selain upacara pengibaran bendera, ada juga beberapa penampilan yang diadakan oleh para siswa setelah upacara.
