Are you proud to be Balinese? or are you ashamed to be Balinese? No
problem, whether you are proud to be Balinese or you are ashamed to be
Balinese, because that is your opinion and your feeling. But in my opinion, I
am very proud to be Balinese.
Refering to this, I would like to tell you about my experience when I
joined a competition in Jogjakarta. I was so nervous and excited. In Jogjakarta
I had many friends from Java, NTB, Bantul, but none of them were from Bali.
If they asked me, “Where are you from?” and then I answerd “I am from
Bali”. Their responses were so happy and they wanted to know more about Bali
from me. They were interested in Bali and they heard that Bali was a beautiful
island and Balinese culture were rich and unique.They told me that they would
visit Bali to spend their holiday.
Then, when I was presenting my power point, the jury always
smiled. After that the jury asked me “Can you dance?” I said “Yes, I can.”
The jury requested me to dance. I was happy because I could show one of
balinese dances there. When the committee announced the winner, the juries gave
opinion about the competition. I was so nervous and I worried that I could not
win. But finally, I became the winner.
I believe one of the reasons I won the competition because I was proud
to show my culture and I was proud to be Balinese.
