My preparation for 4th July story



I already finish my first week in Muncie for SUSI Program. It was nice to see everything here, the places, the weathers, the classes, the lecturers, and the assignment. Everything is great and makes me think how if it is happen in my country.

On Thursday, 4th of July, all the SUSI grantees are going to celebrate America Independence Day. The celebration is going to take place in Minnetrista, Muncie. There will be a fireworks and people for all over Muncie will gather there enjoying the fireworks decorate the night sky of Muncie.

It will be a great event especially for American citizen since they will celebrate their independence, their freedom, and their new life. I am going to record their celebration experiences from year to year and what value that they get from the celebration. I believe that people have their own perspective about independence: what does it mean to them, what do they perceive the government today, what are their hopes for better America, and what have they done to fill the independence.

I read a lot about America Independence day so that I can have a bit more knowledge about American history. It will become my foundation to get some more information from Muncie society. I hope so.

  1. Very good, Nurul! I hope that you found some valuable facts about Independence Day through your research.

    I particularly like these ideas—what does it mean to them & what are their hopes for a better America—as potential purposes for your story.
