A Typewriter

finally I know what is "mesin ketik" in English.lol
yes, a typewriter

it's kinda out of date if we talk about a typewriter. But we can't avoid that we still need it, especially if you're studying at English literature of Gunadarma Univ. Ya, as we know that we must always make a report for pronoun practice. And our seniors wanted us to make the report by using a typewriter.

We all got stressed out at first before we found the typist near by our campus. And since that day, we always go to there to make our report. When we go to the typist, we just have to give them the report in a normal paper and then they will type it by the typewriter. 

But last time, when my friends and I went to that typist and asked them to make our report, they didn't want to. Their reason is because they didn't have enough time to finish our report. So we forced to make the report by ourselves. And the problem is, we didn't know how to use a typewriter. But our friend, Cau was really excited to finish it. Then me and the others were wanted to finish it too. Cau was more expert than us, so we were learned from her about how to use the typewriter. But it's not as easy as we've thought before. I'm sure you guys are also still didn't know exactly how yo use it. So I'll explain it to you guys!

1.If it's an electric typewriter, turn it on.

2.Flip up the paper guide and place a piece of paper behind the roller.

3.Roll the paper into place.

4.Push the button on the end of the roller to free the paper for minor adjustments.

5.Adjust the paper and press the button again to tighten the roller.

6.Set the line spacing with the lever above the typewriter's keys or behind the roller.

7.Place your hands on the keys, with your index fingers on the F and J keys and your pinkies on the A and semicolon keys.

8.Type precisely and deliberately until you hear the margin bell (if there is one).

9.Push the carriage return lever from left to right, or press Enter on an electric typewriter, and begin typing again.

10.Continue until you reach the bottom of the paper.

11.If you make a mistake, use correction fluid or erase it (if you used erasable paper) and type over the mistake.

12.Repeat with a new piece of paper.

that's it. you'll get some trouble at first.. But it's quite fun and cool if you can do it by yourself!
