my beautiful house

My house is located in Pattimura Street 09, Kota Baru. My house has a land area of 1500 m2 and a building area only 300 m2. There are several rooms in my house. They are a living room, a family room, kitchen and bathroom, three bedrooms and a warehouse.

The first room is the living room. Living room is used to approve the guests who come to my house. In which there is some furniture including sofas, desks, and framed photos on the wall and lavender flowers on the pot. My living room is colored green and it looks so calm when you see it for many times. I love this living room because the decoration is chosen by myself.

The second room is a family room. Family room is the most spacious room in my house. We usually use the family room to gather while watching television. In the living room there are television, chairs, tables, and an aquarium. That is a big television, so when we sit together in front of it, we can see the movie clearly. Furthermore, we usually turn the light on when we want to see a horror movie and it is like watching in the real cinema.

Family room, My beautiful house

Actually, I don’t like the chairs and the table in the family room, because it spends the space more and there is a less space for us to sit on the floor. How about my aquarium? This is the thing that I love so much. That aquarium was bought by my own money and I fill it with some fishes like lohan and arwana. Those fishes are so cute when they are grown up. Also, the family room is used for me to do a lot of works. In this room, there is a computer which has been a long time. May be my father will buy a new computer this year, I hope for it.

We have a large kitchen, including a dinning room. There is also a bathroom near the kitchen. I have three bedrooms in my house. The first room is my sister’s room. It is close-set to the living room. The second room is my parent’s room, and last room is mine. My parent’s room is bigger than mine and there is a big bed includes TV and sound system for my father. He usually listens to the music and country is his favorite genre of music. My room is located in the corner of house.

Bali Island : report text

2017-03-06T00:20:00.000+07:00

Bali Island

Bali is a province in the country of Indonesia. The island is located in the westernmost end of the Lesser Sunda Islands, lying between Java to the west and Lombok to the east. It is one of the country's 33 provinces with the provincial capital at Denpasar towards the south of the island. The province covers a few small neighbouring islands as well as the isle of Bali. With a population recorded as 3,891,428 in the 2010 census, the island is home to most of Indonesia's Hindu minority. In the 2000 census about 92.29% of Bali's population adhered to Balinese Hinduism while most of the remainder follow Islam. It is also the largest tourist destination in the country and is renowned for its highly developed arts, including traditional and modern dance, sculpture, painting, leather, metalworking, and music. Bali, a tourist haven for decades, has seen a further surge in tourist numbers in recent years.

Bali was inhabited by around 2000 BC by Austronesian peoples who migrated originally from Taiwan through Maritime Southeast Asia. Culturally and linguistically, the Balinese are thus closely related to the peoples of the Indonesian archipelago, Malaysia, the Philippines, and Oceania. Stone tools dating from this time have been found near the village of Cekik in the island's west. In ancient Bali, nine Hindu sects existed, namely Pasupata, Bhairawa, Siwa Shidanta, Waisnawa, Bodha, Brahma, Resi, Sora and Ganapatya. Each sect revered a specific deity as its personal Godhead.

Balinese culture was strongly influenced by Indian, Chinese, and particularly Hindu culture, beginning around the 1st century AD. The name Bali dwipa ("Bali island") has been discovered from various inscriptions, including the Blanjong pillar inscription written by Sri Kesari Warmadewa in 914 AD and mentioning "Walidwipa". It was during this time that the complex irrigation system subak was developed to grow rice. Some religious and cultural traditions still in existence today can be traced back to this period. The Hindu Majapahit Empire (1293–1520 AD) on eastern Java founded a Balinese colony in 1343. When the empire declined, there was an exodus of intellectuals, artists, priests, and musicians from Java to Bali in the 15th century.

When the empire declined, there was an exodus of intellectuals, artists, priests, and musicians from Java to Bali in the 15th century.

In the 1930s, anthropologists Margaret Mead and Gregory Bateson, and artists Miguel Covarrubias and Walter Spies, and musicologist Colin McPhee created a western image of Bali as "an enchanted land of aesthetes at peace with themselves and nature", and western tourism first developed on the island.

Imperial Japan occupied Bali during World War II. Bali Island was not originally a target in their Netherlands East Indies Campaign, but as the airfields on Borneo were inoperative due to heavy rains the Imperial Japanese Army decided to occupy Bali, which did not suffer from comparable weather. The island had no regular Royal Netherlands East Indies Army (KNIL) troops. There was only a Native Auxiliary Corps Prajoda (Korps Prajoda) consisting of about 600 native soldiers and several Dutch KNIL officers under command of KNIL Lieutenant Colonel W.P. Roodenburg. On 19 February 1942 the Japanese forces landed near the town of Senoer. The island was quickly captured.

During the Japanese occupation a Balinese military officer, Gusti Ngurah Rai, formed a Balinese 'freedom army'. The lack of institutional changes from the time of Dutch rule however, and the harshness of war requisitions made Japanese rule little better than the Dutch one. Following Japan's Pacific surrender in August 1945, the Dutch promptly returned to Indonesia, including Bali, immediately to reinstate their pre-war colonial administration. This was resisted by the Balinese rebels now using Japanese weapons. On 20 November 1946, the Battle of Marga was fought in Tabanan in central Bali. Colonel I Gusti Ngurah Rai, by then 29 years old, finally rallied his forces in east Bali at Marga Rana, where they made a suicide attack on the heavily armed Dutch. The Balinese battalion was entirely wiped out, breaking the last thread of Balinese military resistance. In 1946 the Dutch constituted Bali as one of the 13 administrative districts of the newly proclaimed State of East Indonesia, a rival state to the Republic of Indonesia which was proclaimed and headed by Sukarno and Hatta. Bali was included in the "Republic of the United States of Indonesia" when the Netherlands recognised Indonesian independence on 29 December 1949.

The 1963 eruption of Mount Agung killed thousands, created economic havoc and forced many displaced Balinese to be transmigrated to other parts of Indonesia. Mirroring the widening of social divisions across Indonesia in the 1950s and early 1960s, Bali saw conflict between supporters of the traditional caste system, and those rejecting these traditional values. Politically, this was represented by opposing supporters of the Indonesian Communist Party (PKI) and the Indonesian Nationalist Party (PNI), with tensions and ill-feeling further increased by the PKI's land reform programs. An attempted coup in Jakarta was put down by forces led by General Suharto. The army became the dominant power as it instigated a violent anti-communist purge, in which the army blamed the PKI for the coup. Most estimates suggest that at least 500,000 people were killed across Indonesia, with an estimated 80,000 killed in Bali, equivalent to 5% of the island's population.[14] With no Islamic forces involved as in Java and Sumatra, upper-caste PNI landlords led the extermination of PKI members.

As a result of the 1965/66 upheavals, Suharto was able to manoeuvre Sukarno out of the presidency, and his "New Order" government reestablished relations with western countries. The pre-War Bali as "paradise" was revived in a modern form, and the resulting large growth in tourism has led to a dramatic increase in Balinese standards of living and significant foreign exchange earned for the country. A bombing in 2002 by militant Islamists in the tourist area of Kuta killed 202 people, mostly foreigners. This attack, and another in 2005, severely affected tourism, bringing much economic hardship to the island, although tourist numbers have now returned to levels before the bombings.

But the other one did not know how to climb. So being led by his common sense, he lay down on the ground breathless, pretending to be a dead man. The bear came near the man lying on the ground. It smelt in his ears, and slowly left the place. Because the bears do not touch the dead creatures.Now the friend on the tree came down and asked his friend on the ground, “Friend, what did the bear tell you into your ears?” The other friend replied, “The bear advised me not to believe a false friend.”

Example of speech in english - Friends and problems

2017-03-01T14:56:00.001+07:00

Assalamualaikum warrahmatulahi wabarakatuh
May god bless all of us.

I hope all of you in a good mood to hear what I concern about in this new year term. because what I am gonna talk to you is very important. It is about problems. Every days of our life, every single day we face problems. Every hour, and maybe every second of your life. And in this case, because I stand in front of you, student and teacher, it is students problems.

Students, yes you ! I know you face a lot of problems in this schools such as bad grade, unfinished project, so many homework, bullying, lack of motivation and so on. And probably you also have a problem that you don't even realize it such as no engagement in class, laziness, smoking, brawl, speeding and so on. Maybe you won't admit that as a problems, it is ok. But we, your teacher will consider it. Why? simply because it will affect your education history or your grades.

There is no such an easy way to deal with that things, there is no shortcut. You must face it. But, there is a way to help you to solve your problems. Before we talk about it, I want to tell you about how big is your problems. There is no such a way to really calculate how big is your problems, but there is few things that can affect that.

First, It is your perception. How big is your trouble is depends on how you see it. If you see it as a big problems then you will deliver some fear or anxiety. That anxiety will make you down and can't face that problems and maybe make another problems. But if you think that your problems is small, easy to handle, then you will have courage to face it, to solve the problem.

We are moving to the second factor, it is social support. what is social support? social support is people around you who care about you. Your mother must be, or maybe your friend, or your brother and also us, your teacher. How many friends you got? there is so many people just in the small class. But are they care about you? how many friends that you can share story or ask if you have a problems. If you have many social support then you have a better chance to solve problems. Also It will make you easier to share your problems and reduce your stress.

Now the last one is coping skill. Coping skill is the way you reduce stress when you have a problems without solving the problems. Lets say you have a very difficult assignment and you are afraid that you are not gonna finish it. You become worry about it and stressful because of that. You ask your classmate but he can't help you at all. But, your friends say that all of your classmate cant do the assignment as well and finally you stop worrying about that. Or, you just go to your friends house and start chatting about the funny stuff and the stress are gone.

Knowing that none of your classmate can do the assignment doesn't make your assignment complete. chatting with your friends also doesn't make your assignment complete. The problems are still there but your anxiety is gone, you are not stress anymore. So, you can just face the problem with courage. as I said in the beginning that it is good to not worry about that.

So, we are come to the conclusion that you need a good perception, social support and coping skill. What I want you to do is make as much friends as possible because friends are your social support resource. Come to your classmate, make a good relationship say to them that we can face all of the problems together. That will make you have a good perception about the problems. And friends also can help you deliver your coping skill to deal with the stress and worry that come along with the problems.

That is a little advice from me. and welcome to the junior high school.
wassalamualaikum wr. wb,

One day, my sister said to me that she really wanted to go to the beach. So I promised her that the next day we would go to Maron beach in Semarang.

The next day, we prepared many things in the morning. We brought some foods and beverages, such as fried rice, chocolate wafers, potato chips, water and orange juice. Before going to the beach, I ask my boyfriend, Kiki, to join us going to the beach. He agreed to join and he came to my house. After that, we went to the beach. We went there by motorbike. It took 25 minutes to arrive there. Then, we bought tickets in the entrance gate. Before swimming, we changed our clothes first. We swam there for more than one hour. We felt so tired that we decided to eat the foods that we had brought. Next, my boyfriend and I created a very big sand castle, while my sister continued swimming. After that, we decided to go home because it was getting dark.

On the way home, we still felt hungry. So we stopped at a Javanese restaurant to eat something. I ordered gudeg, while my boyfriend and my sister ordered rames rice. After finished eating, we paid our bills. Then, we went home. We arrived at home at 6 o’clock and we were absolutely exhausted.

That was a very exhausting day, but I felt so happy that I could have a vacation with my sister and my boyfriend.

What is recount text

2017-01-29T17:24:00.001+07:00

Hello guys, how are you? do you still remember about recount text?

Its been so long since I don't post anything in this blog. This blog was created when I was in high school. At that time I didn't know what to write on the blog so I decided to improve my English by writing a different type of text in my blog. It was not easy, I must face so many critique that visitors wrote in the comment section.

Now, I am a collage student in University of Indonesia. Two days ago, I read this blog and I actually don't remember what is recount text and how can I write so many article on this blog. So, I decided to write again from the start "what is recount text?". Lets study together :D.

what is recount text

Recount is a text which retells events or experiences in the past. Its purpose is either to inform or to entertain the audience. There is no complication among the participants and that differentiates from narrative. (Self, n.d)

There is nothing complicated about recount text. I'm sure that everybody has his own experience, so everybody can make a recount text easily. So, if you want to create recount text, the first thing you need to do is trying to recall your experience that is pretty good to be wrote.

something that really important about recount text that you don't want to miss is that recount text have a structure (Self, n.d) :

Generic Structure of Recount text

1. Orientation: Introducing the participants, place and time
2. Events: Describing series of event that happened in the past
3. Reorientation: It is optional. Stating personal comment of the writer to the story

Language Feature of Recount text

• Introducing personal participant; I, my group, etc
• Using chronological connection; then, first, etc
• Using linking verb; was, were, saw, heard, etc
• Using action verb; look, go, change, etc
• Using simple past tense

That is guys hahaha. After six years, what can I do is just creating some bullshit about recount text to earn some money.

They were turtles, snakes, and sea birds. We were very happy. In the afternoon, we went to Kuta Beach to see the amazing sunset and enjoyed the beautiful wave.

The last day, we spent our time in Sangeh. We could enjoy the green and shady forest. There were so many monkies. They were so tame but sometimes they could be naughty. We could make a close interaction with them. After that, we went to Sukowati market for shopping. That was my lovely time. I bought some Bali T-Shirt and souvenirs.
