On September 24th 2016, my friends and I joined a competition in UPI called Battle of Brains. Battle of Brains is a competition where we get a lot of questions about general knowledge such as science, history, entertainment, English, and others. Yahya sent 2 groups for the competition. The 1st group is me, Nalia, and Jojo. The 2nd group is Christy, Yohanna, and Jonathan. In BOB there are 3 rounds, the 1st round is each group gets 10 different general knowledge questions. In the 2nd round, every group gets 15 same questions about English. The last round is a conquest question about general knowledge. In the 1st session we competed with SMP Mutiara and SMP Alfa Centauri. Through the 1st session we got some difficult questions such as ancient human, capital city, and etc. But we managed to get through it and we won that session.

We were so excited when we went into the semi-final but we still have to remember what we have learned. In the semi-final we competed with SMP Kuntum Cemerlang. We got some difficult questions like the 7th of UN general secretary and we were so incapable at the English round because we were unable to write fast enough. We won the semi-final and we thanked God for it. Then, we had our break to eat and learned for more general knowledge quiz. When we got call to get into the room and starting the final round, my heart was pounding so fast like it would crush into pieces. Before the session begins, we used to pray to Lord to ask for His guidance, blessings, and to thank to Him for what He has done to us through the competition. The final session is different with the other session, the final has 4 rounds, the last round is about general knowledge, if we answer it correctly we can reduce the opponent’s points, but if our answer is wrong they reduce our points. In the final session, we competed with SMP It AsSyfaPutri and WE WON THE FINAL SESSION with 120 points. The odd thing in the final round is that we became more capable in the English round. We were so happy that we won BOB and we were grateful we got the opportunity to joined BOB competition.
