Reflection:
            One time, I want to hang-out with my best friends but my dad doesn't want me to go out for his own reasons. I hate him for that because he doesn't want me to be happy and get free that's why I went in my room and get frustrated. After a while, he knocks at my door and told me that he want to watch a movie with me. Even though i still hate him, I still watched the movie.  The movie entitled "Taken", I have no idea about what kind of movie it is. After watching the film, I get the objective of my dad why he want me to saw the film. He just want me to realize that he doesn't want me to go out for the reason that he want me to avoid accident that may happen to me while I am out of our house and for me to be safe inside in our little home. When it come's to me, I can really feel that my dad is so strict because I'm his only daughter and the eldest among the three of us. Because of that film, I can now appreciate and understand the love of a father to his siblings.. :)
