Sangi the Hunter
A long time ago in Central Kalimantan, a great hunter named Sangi lived. Every time he went to the jungle to go hunting, he brought a lot of animals home. As always, Sangi went to the jungle. He saw some footprints of a wild hog. The footprints ended in a big tree. Sangi thought the hog was behind the tree. He saw a big dragon was trying to swallow a wild hog. The hog was so big that the dragon could not swallow it easily.
After several times trying to swallow, finally the dragon gave up. Suddenly, the dragon looked at Sangi. He thought the dragon would eat him alive. The dragon slowly came to him. When the dragon was exactly in front of him, it turned into smoke. When the smoke was gone, there was a handsome man. He said, ''Eat that wild hog. This is your punishment for seeing me try to eat.'' ''I can't. I am a human.'' said Sangi. ''Yes, you can. If you are a dragon, you can eat that hog,'' said the man.
Then Sangi changed into a dragon. After that, he ate the hog. Later, he changed back as a human. ''What happened to me? Why could I change as a dragon?'' said Sangi. ''It also happened to me years ago. We are half dragon and half human. Besides that, you can be forever young. I'm more than 100 years old but I still look young right?'' said the man.
He continued, ''There is one condition that you have to do. Don't tell anyone that you are a half dragon and half human. If you told it, you could be a dragon forever and unable to change back as human,'' said the man.
On his 150th birthday, people could not stand it anymore. More and more people asked him. Sangi gave up. He told them that he was actually half dragon and half human. People were laughing at him. They did not believe that. ''I am a dragon!'' screamed Sangi. Right after Sangi finished saying that, his body was shaking. Slowly he changed as a dragon. He regretted for telling them his secret. He knew he could not live in the village with his family anymore. He went to the river and lived there. Since then, people named the river Sangi River.

Dear Dini,
The time has come to say good-bye as I finally pack up and head for my new home. I leave with both excitement and with regret. Obviously, I am excited to be starting a new school with new expectations and the possibility of a scholarship. At the same time, I have some regrets and one of those regrets is to be moving far away from you. I’ll certainly miss our normal weekly get together and our friendship.
Of course, I can’t say good-bye in any final sense for that would be far too painful. What I am saying is that you know that we will be forever friends and I look forward with great anticipation when you come to visit, or when I come to visit you. As soon as I am settled, I will send you my face book address, phone number and new address.
