Place I'd Like To Visit

Hello there. Now, i would like to tell about a certain place that i want to visit: Musée Du Louvre or The Louvre Museum.

The Louvre or the Louvre Museum is the world's largest museum and a historic monument in Paris, France. A central landmark of the city, it is located on the Right Bankof the Seinein the city's 1st district (or ward). Nearly 35,000 objects from prehistory to the 21st century are exhibited over an area of 60,600 square metres (652,300 square feet).



It is the world's largest museum and the second most visited one after Palace Museum in China, receiving more than 9 milion visitors in 2014. It is also a historic monument in Paris, France.


The Musée du Louvre contains more than 380,000 objects and displays 35,000 works of art in eight curatorial departments.





One of the main reasons in me wanting to visit the place is because I've been taking quite an interest in France in general. I also deeply fancy in appreciating various kinds of artworks, especially ones that are made in prehistoric era. That's why I find it really enticing to go and observe the said museum.






I really hope I can visit it someday in the future with my own hardworks.. I'll toil my heart out to strive for my dreams.

Entry 3: Megantara

Now I will recount all of my perks (and plights) during Megantara Curtural Festival!
Actually it didn't go too well for me, as I could also infer that it simply was a terrible day in my perspective.
First, I arrived too soon. By that, I mean, WAY TOO SOON. I was expected to arrive in the afternoon, instead I went there at about 7. Did i tell you that I was chosen to parricipate in the Fashion Show and was wearing thick make up? It was all so tacky, and humid, and hot, and practically terrible. Woe was the day!

I really felt like going home, but there was not much that I could do about it. I tried to stay strong and invisibly cried in agony over my pride. I felt so embarrassed to death so I just stayed in my seat and meddled with my phone through half the day.

As soon as the show ends I almost cried in gratefulness. It's been a long time since I relish so much over a simple turn of event. It had been a long day and it's time to get lit and just have fun.

The most interesting event in the festival is the cameos: Ran and The Changcuters (the name's seriously ridiculous I'm almost embarrassed to type this). At the end of the day I met some (special) people and had fun with them. I went home at 8. I didn't get to see RAN though, but i thought that it was all enough and I'm exhausted anyway.

That's probably all that I can tell about Megantara. Even though it was practically a bad day.. but it was fun. Sure. Fun.

I'll see you again. Boo.
