Many people have helped shape this book. The paragraphs collected in this book are part of activities and assignments in Writing Class I (2019) tutored by Junaidi, S.S., MA at the English Department, Faculty of Humanities, Universitas Indonesia. Over the months the paragraphs have been written, edited and re-edited. Heartfelt thanks go out to Muhammad Umar Sadikin, our captain of the class who have coordinated his friends so well, Anasya Shania for her beautiful cover design, Elda Nisya Auliainsani, and Farah Salma Azizah for their works in editing and collecting the paragraphs.
This anthology presents 50 selected stories by the students of Study Program of English, Faculty of Cultural Studies, Universitas Brawijaya, who were taking Paragraph Writing in the second semester of 2019/2020. These stories belong to the narrative paragraph category, one of the four genres that the students learned and practiced in this class. This book is expected to allow the students to tell their stories to a wider audience and to get inspired to write more. While reading the book, the audience will be able to catch a glimpse of what unforgettable experiences these young writers have—some of these experiences are beautiful, some others are embarrassing, upsetting, scary, or sad, but all of them have taught an important lesson to the writers. We hope you enjoy this book. Comments and suggestions for future improvement would be greatly appreciated.
