Polished transcript:

Male Female

I'd like to tell you about the experience when I met my new friend, her close friend. It's none other than Erka. We met in the first semester. She is my classmate. The first time I saw her, she looked like a serious person, but when we became closer, I came to realize that she's a generous person and she's so humble. Even when I was in my final semester and struggled with my final assignment, she helped me to overcome it, and I was grateful for her support in my life. The reason we became closer is that we have the same interest in watching horror movies. Besides that, we also enjoy watching hip-hop idols and Korean dramas. Whenever I have a discussion with her, it feels meaningful because I can laugh with her and make jokes. In 2024, I visited her hometown in Tuban. I envisioned that we could take photos together and capture moments. Additionally, we went to Surabaya to sign up for a photo booth, creating memories that are special when I try to recall them.
