It was held for three days from Thursday, September 29th  until Saturday, October 1st. this program is held in RINDAM III/Siliwangi, at jl. Menado.

On Thursday, all students are gathered at the hall. Then we are divided into companies and barracks. There were two companies, and  seven barracks. Then we were told to put our things in the barrack and come back to the hall. In the hall, we participate in the opening ceremony of LDKS. It was then followed by an explanation of the school rules and then a presentation about physical and psychological self-protection for men and women from P2TP2A.

When the clock strikes twelve, we proceed to pray in the mosque which was followed by lunch. In order to instill discipline to the students, there are rules that must be obeyed in the eating room. Some of the rules are 1 table consist of 8 people, we must sit upright and look straight, we must pray together before eating and a lot more other rules. After we finished eating, we then moved to the field where we do PBB (Peraturan Baris Berbaris) for hours. After that we took a bath and eat again. Next we went to the mosque to pray and the day was closed with the election of Ketua Angkatan 32019.

The next day continue in mostly the same manners with praying, eating and more presentations. But there is something interesting in the night. The lights went out so we were told to went back to the barrack early. In the barrack there were an evaluation by the seniors, after that we slept.


The last day, after the usual morning routine, we were gathered in the hall for a presentation about positive energy by an alumni of SMAN 3 Bandung. It was then followed by mindset games in the field. From there we went back for the closing ceremony. When it is finished, the LDKS is officially closed and we went back to our homes.

Lions

The lion (Panthera Leo) is one of the big cats that is only second in size to the tiger. Currently wild lion only exist in sub-saharan africa and india. Where historically they could be found in most of Africa, including North Africa, and across Eurasia from Greece and southeastern Europe to India.
The lion is a well-muscled cat with a long body, large head, and short legs. The main difference between male lion from female lion is the mane. Manes are long hair that can usually be found on the neck of male lions. A full-grown male is about 1.8–2.1 metres long, excluding the 1-metre tail; he stands about 1.2 metres high at the shoulder and weighs 170–230 kg. The female, or lioness, is smaller, with a body length of 1.5 metres, a shoulder height of 0.9–1.1 metres, and a weight of 120–180 kg.

Female lions usually do most of the hunting, where males usually get their share from the female’s kill. But that doesn’t mean that male lions are helpless, they are also adept hunters. Lions prey on various animals, but they mainly hunt medium- to large-sized hoofed animals such as wildebeests, zebras, and antelopes.


Both sexes are polygamous and breed throughout the year, but females are usually restricted to the one or two adult males of their pride. In captivity lions often breed every year, but in the wild they usually breed no more than once in two years. Females are receptive to mating for three or four days within a widely variable reproductive cycle. During this time a pair generally mates every 20–30 minutes, with up to 50 copulations per 24 hours. The gestation period is about 108 days, and the litter size varies from one to six cubs, two to four being usual.

Torres del Paine National Park


Torres del Paine National Park is located in southern Chilean Patagonia. It consists of mountains, glaciers, lakes, and rivers. It measured approximately 242,242 hectares and is one of the largest and most visited parks in Chile.


In the park the transportation is mostly by foot. Because there is busses but they are quite expensive and infrequent. This is also because the park is famous for its hiking trail which of course must be done on foot. Some of the worth mentioning trails are the los cuernos, the French valley, and last but not least the mirador las torres.



WTTF

Saturday, August 20th, 2016, was the day when the World Tournament and
Techno Fest (WTTF) take place. This event is a program of the school
organization of SMA Negeri 3 with the aim to strengthen the cooperation and
teamwork between students mainly within their class but also in their year.
This event is also mandatory for all 32018 and 32019.

It all started in the morning, precisely at 6.30 when we are all gathered
in the bali field and hear the speeches and opening of the event. Then, we
were divided into groups according to our class, X IPA 1 with XI IPA 1 and
so on. Each group are entrusted under two guide and evaluator.

After that, they explained what is it that we are going to do or quite
simply, our mission. The mission was that we must went to some posts they
called planets and in each of the post we will be presented with a
challenge and the Xth XIth grade will have to compete against each other.
In the conclusion of each planet, the winner will get a piece of puzzle. To
find these planets we were given a map and a set of clues. There were also
aliens in the mission. If we hit an alien with a water balloon we will get
a piece of puzzle but on the contrary, if the alien hit us we will lose a
piece. But there was a twist in this mission, for we are only permitted to
speak in English.

Then the mission began. The first planet of my class (X IPA 2) was located
in the front parking space. Here we are presented with a challenge to eat
spicy noodle. Each class (X IPA 2 and XI IPA 2) was told to pick two
people to represent their class. Whoever finishes first will win.
Unfortunately my class lost in this planet. Then we continued our journey
to the next planet. This one was located in the class of XI IPA 3. The
challenge in this planet was actually quite unexpected. The challenge is to
play a fighting game called tekken and the winner will get a piece of
puzzle. Sadly my class lost yet again.

The next planet was located at the music park. The challenge in this planet was a rank 2 quiz. It was similar to rank 1 quiz but the winner is not the first but the second. In this challenge my class at last won our first challenge. After that we moved on to the next three planets which was located in lapangan bali. In these planets we were presented with three different challenges. The first one was another game, it was a computer soccer game. The second was playing flappy bird. And the last was a quiz about technology. My class lost the first challenge but fortunately won the other two.

The next planet was actually quite far from the last one. It was in taman tongkeng. The challenge there was to make a robot out of used materials. My class won and got another piece of puzzle. Before we went to the next planet we rested for a while during which we ate and prayed. After that we continued our journey to the next planet in taman foto. The challenge was a twister game. And in this challenge we won. Then we went back to lapangan bali for the final of the mission.

In lapangan bali all the groups were assembled and we were then attacked by the aliens. We of course retaliate and in doing so seized more of the puzzle pieces. Then each year (2018 and 2019) were told to finish the puzzle from the pieces. Of course not everyone can join in finishing the puzzle, it will be too crowded. So some, including me opt to just watch from some distance and not disturbing the ones that were doing the real job. When the time was up, my year’s puzzle was more complete than the other, so my year win.

It's Me
Hi world! My name is Ahmad Saladin, for short i am called Adin. I was born at Limijati hospital, October 21st 2001. I live in a very beautiful city, Bandung which is located in west java, Indonesia. I have a set of wonderful parents their names are Achmad and Nadia. My father works in the private sector while my mother works as an English teacher in TBI. In my family, i have 2 little sisters, Alyssa and Acha.

In the 14 years i walked this earth, i have seen and done a lot of different things. For start, i have been to 3 different schools. I got my first taste of formal education in a quite unique school. This school is Sekolah Alam Bandung. The reason why this school is unique is that instead of studying in normal classes, this school  use a traditional building called saung that lacks concrete walls. This school also provided a different type of learning that is closer with nature. For junior high school, i went to Taruna Bakti Junior High School. But now i go to 3 Senior High School in Bandung.
