My
Lovely House
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 also like my bedroom. But unlike
the kitchen, my bedroom is quite messy. I like it because I can do a lot of
things there.

My Wonderful Dog
Among pets, I like the best dog
because they are tame animals and they can be trained as a man friend. I have a
wonderful dog. I named him Bonny.
Bonny is a male dog. He is a
Pomeranian dog and is about two years old. My dog is great. He has grayish-
white fur, small ears, and a cone-shaped mouth. His paws are strong.
Well, my dear Bonny is a 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.
I always take him to a grooming salon
twice in a month to have him bathed and to trim his fur neatly. Bonny eats
dog’s food; fresh meal and drink fresh milk. I don’t let him eat bones because
they are not good for him.
