LETTER TO THE PRESIDENT

Dearest Mr. President,
I understand that you are a very busy man. I don't know how to put it exactly, but my father comes home late from work at night, and I consider him to be very busy. Of course, what you do gives another meaning to the word. Well, that's how most people take you for. With all due respect, I wouldn't want to waste another second, but I'll take a portion of your incredibly long and exhausting day to just remind you of a few chaotic events taking place in our country. Narcotics,death by overdose, crimes based on religious motivations, murder.. Don't they seem to be a familiar discussion amongst people nowadays? Oh yes, many have fallen to the drug's  intriguing taunts. I care very little to what the victims had to think or say, since most just put their selves in that troubling position. In fact, I deemed the villains to be more worthy of pity, as they were the ones bearing the death penalties. If there was anything right in our generation's minds, then their morals would be enough for them to actually think. Recently, Franz Magnis wrote a letter to you, questioning the ACF's deliberations for giving you the World Statesman Award. Indeed I would like to know, are you worthy of it? Truly? Letter or no letter, what do you think of yourself? The people of Indonesia are desperate for a change, Mr.president. As our leader, we want to know if you're even the right man for the job. Prove yourself and gain our trust.

Pioneers

The world of pioneers and our own are different in countless ways. However, our purpose of surviving and living resemble theirs. It is just that our ways are different from a pioneer's way. To live means it is necessary to do things that supports a better condition in life. This include the necessity for food and supply, education, social connection, shelter, medication, and many more. It may never occurred to us how pioneers live, but surely it is tougher and much more difficult. I'll give you some examples. What do you normally do when your stomach starts growling? Maybe you'll search the refrigerator or perhaps call the pizza delivery guy. Pioneers, on the other hand, don't live with all the luxuries we own. They'll need to hunt down their food, and that is assuming they could find any during their travels in unfamiliar lands. When it comes to social connection, we hang out with friends everyday and rarely think of the word "bored." It is hard for me to imagine myself waking up each day to see the same faces of fellow pioneers. Next comes education. For us, studying from thick textbooks stuffed with all kinds of knowledge blows our heads off for sure. I envy pioneers for their freedom, and the fact that they know much more about living in the wild than us; city people. I bet they know perfectly well how to start fires in the absence of lighters or matches, and build temporary shelters which are comforting for the night and safe at the same time. Our houses and shelters though are more permanent constructions to live in due to the conditions in our community. We rarely have wild beasts wandering outside our doors and have all the facilities to just stay inside. So lastly, I'll discuss about medication. In our place, most sickness is cured by going to hospitals so we can be treated by nurses and educated doctors. Medical technology is more advanced and trustworthy. The pioneers, well, use less advanced medication, mostly relying on herbs and medical plants. Don't you think the difference is just so much? That is why people, especially city people, must learn to appreciate and be thankful for every wonderful givings from God, for not everybody live a glamorous life.

The World From Below and Above – (included in must visit list)



On a beautiful morning, the streets in Beijing bustled with noise. Tourists were preparing to load two waiting buses that will take them to the starting point of the Great Wall. Their faces show just how much excitement they’re trying to hold! Soon after, the two buses sped side by side through traffic, but to these lively passangers, the trip must have felt a couple hours longer. In the buses, a briefing took place, and it looked like they were well informed and prepared for what people consider as one of a great physical challenge. Then, as the buses came to a halt, people were already stumbling their way out. A thick and cold air surrounded the tall hills, and these travellers were seen shivering from head to toe, even under several layers of clothes. Up in the distant, circling the hills like a rusty colored snake, the Great Wall of China stood absolutely still; quiet like a dead rock. It was taunting them, perhaps, asking to be conquered within the day. The role of the Great Wall nowadays is only as a tourist attraction, a minor role compared to its old use. In ancient times, it was ordered to be built by the emperor of China. His purpose was to prevent Mongolians from entering the China territory. It the wall hadn’t been built, China would have been in war with the Mongolians. It is now a magnificent attraction to many due to its never ending length, which to many is an impressive feat completed by meer hands of simple humans from thousand years ago. It is also one of the Wonders on Earth, and the view from both below and above the Walls is fascinating. Like a strange new world, a new atmosphere seem to form in the sight of its beholders. Everything was double the beauty and majestic; words just couldn’t describe the lightweight feeling when looking down and above a marvelous view. When exploring China’s cultural destinations, you would find every single scenery just wonderful. To me, one of the sources of this “wonder” is none other than the Great Wall of China. Those is search for a beautiful sight, should definitely and without doubt take your family and close relatives and bring them to enjoy a day in one of China’s ancient and historical sites. It is guaranteed that fun and amazement will come your way. Prepare to be amazed..

How to Spend A Day

The sun rises. You yawn widely and stretch. Rubbing your eyes, you finally wake up. So!.. what r ya gonna do today? Go back to sleep ._. Wait till it's almost school time and then shower quickly. Rush it! Gobble down ur breakfast and run to the car. Hit the gas and speed through traffic. Then sprint to class a second before the teacher walks in. Ehhee. Never mind that. Bad example. Sorry, sorry.

You should get right up as soon as your eyes flew open. Get showered as soon as possible even though it is dead freezing cause its healthy! During weekends you could be more relaxed and plan to do the stuffs you like. Unless you have plans with family or friends. Or maybe the things you do with your relatives are the fun stuff. This is how I would enjoy my day; get my favorite book and read it then watch tv, play outside, get some cold drinks or ice cream and sleeeep... -u-
Although playing is fun, there are some bonuses in doing schoolwork early. You can enjoy the rest of your day. Isn't it great?

1. Get up early. (You can enjoy more time in a day)
2. Wash your face with cold water and get showered
3. Go get some breakfast. Eat your favorite food to lift your mood up
4. Do some inside door activities you like first
5. When it is near afternoon get out and do some outdoor stuffs; sports, outbonds
6. Go home and shower. it's always refreshing to shower after exercises

So that's it! Enjoy ur day :D

I want to be a white lion..

White. Fearsome. Prideful. Cute! :3 What else? It's the rare and beautiful white lion.


There are reasons why I want to be one of these powerful animals. First, they are loving creatures. Between their family at least. Then, they have strength to defend themselves and are very confident. I really want to have those natures. You see, I'm really shy around strangers >.< and even friends or close relatives.Third, they are very playful. I love to play outside and have some fun. That's why I think being a white lion will be a blast! ;D

Lastly, they like to lie around and do lazy stuffs. What a way to spend a day >,<  You gotta luv them
