I live with my parents
and two brothers in a nice little house on the suburban area of Bogor. I really
love our house. It’s not large, but very shasy and pretty since my parents grow
many fruits and flowers in a yard.
My house is a two-storey
building. It has living room, a family room, and a large kitchen on the first
floor. All bedrooms are located on the second floor. There is also another
family room on the second floor. Wespend our time together there every evening.
My favourite room in the
house is the kitchen. It is a very clean and everything is arranged nicely. As
you enter the kitchen, you will see a table in front of you. It is on the right
side of the room. Behind the table is a window. On the window shelf, there is a
plant and a candle. On the left side of the room, there is a sink, refrierator,
and cabinets. There is a long counter and beautiful bouquet of flowers.
Besides the kitchen, I

it because I can do a lot of things there.

clever dog. He always barks loudly and noisily when there is a stranger coming
to my house. You know what? He also can do many things such as sitting down
quietly, bringing the newspaper to me, standing on his two hind feet, and
shaking my hand.
