Piso Caesonjnus which means “Let justice be done though the heavens fall” in

official resident. They sacrificed their life begging for justice and protection. On

historical timeline.

Tsar Nicholas II. People of Russia felt unsatisfied and unfair with his leadership
because nobles and landlords got special rights and protection rights. The workers

3. My Little Yellow Box
Have you ever lost your little stuff? Let‟s say you are a hijaber and you often lose
your safety pins? Then same here. I lost my stuff easily especially when I have to
deal with my small- sized stuff such as my flash disk, keys, paper holder, and
safety pins. Well, I think that I don‟t actually lose them, I guess that I just forget
where I put them like almost all the time. I can say that I always be so careless
every single time I have to deal with all these tiny stuff of mine and I am so sick
of losing them, because at the end of the day, I have to buy another ones. So I
managed to buy a little box to store all my easy-to-lose stuff.
I bought the box in one mini market that is located next to my dormitory house.
76
The mini market provides a lot of stationery stuff such as pens, pencils, books,
sticky notes, binders, also various size 9f storages, etc.-When I came to the mini
market, I was dragged with an eye catching little box that made me buying it.
The box has a perfect small shape with soft yellow based color. It has a beautiful
printed flowers all over the surface of the box. The flowers is as colorful as the
rainbow. The box is made by carton materials so that makes it light and easy to be
carried or moved. It has a little black rubber-made lace on the shutter of the box
and it has a small round metal-made button on the bottom of the box. So when I
have my stuff inside I can just lock the box by twisting the lace all the way the
button to make them stay inside.
The box is so helpful, it helps me arrange and store my stuff so that it will be easy
for me to find and take the things that I need. It also has an extra drawer for a
quick access on the right side of the box. I use it to store my safety pins for my
veils and also for my hair scrunchy, because these two things are the things that I
frequently need.
Since the day I have my little box, I don‟t need to worry about losing my valuable
little things anymore. Because I can store them inside the box easily and every
time I need any of those, I can just find and take it from the storage box. And also
because it is made of light material which is carton, I can move or bring it with me
for example when I go traveling and need something to store and keep my things
save and accessible.
