How I am going to spend my free time
In the next day, I will contact my old friends. I really miss them and don’t have any time to meet them. I will visit my best friend and lost time with her. And then, I will try to study a little to make me remember the lessons.
free topic
Accountants deal with matters related to money. Accounting jobs range from planning and administration of a large organization’s finances to giving financial advice to individuals.
Public accountants can work in their own business or in firms with other accountants. For a free, tax accountants provide services to their clients, for example, giving advice on preparing and filling out tax forms. Often, the services of accountants, often called auditors, are needed by organizations to carry out an audit. Accountants are also employed in industry, commerce, and public service.
How I am going to spend my free time?
So I try to hold back my feeling and not read until I done my job. For example I only read a novel at Saturday or Sunday. If I read a novel other days, I have a bad habit, to feel anxious about the end of the story and can’t stop until I know it or I fell asleep. From read books, I fell more relax and I can know about many new things. That is why if I have my free time I like to use it for read my book. So I can read as many book as I can without forget to do my duty.
Superman Vs. Spiderman
My Favorite Comics Series
There are so many things I like from those comics. First is the main actor, Shinichi or Conan. Shinichi Kudo is the only son of the wealthy parents who left him in Japan since he was 14 years old. He is a brilliant soccer player, clever and confident. He is great in shooting a gun on target and flying a helicopter. He idolizes Sherlock Holmes, a fictive detective, and expected to be like him. He is very popular in school as he was a handsome boy and talented as a detective. He loves Ran Mouri, his childhood friend and so does she. Accidentally, Shinichi was involved in a case which also involved 2 mysterious men in black who force fed a poison meant to kill him. He was shrunk into a child’s form. To hide his identity, he adopt a new identity as Conan Edogawa, a child who left by his parent alone and claimed to be a distant relative of Shinichi. He was taken care and lived with Ran Mouri and her father, Kogoro Mouri since Kogoro is a detective too and Shinichi hope he can get some information about men in black by helping him in some cases.
Also, I like the cases which were solved by him.
They are all could sharpen our brain by thinking critically and logically. They also gain our knowledge. Most of them are about murdering, revenging.
I love reading Conan Edogawa comics.
my favorite football player
Zidane was elected fifa world player of the year a record-equalling three times (1998, 2000, 2003). He was also namedeuropean footballer of the year in 1998. The world-record fee of €66 million (US$87 million, £47 million) for his transfer to Real Madrid in 2001 is the highest ever paid.

why i chose binus international?
In addition, why i chose Binus International because Binus International provided us with a double degree program which i can get two titles all at once in four years from two different university. I think the double degree program is very useful for my future because i have two titles from different university so i think i would be able to find better job than if i just have one title. In the end i decided to choose Binus International.
Cellphones in our life.._..By: Rendy_1100026000
Nowadays, a lot of people are using cellphones in their life. They use that electronic equipment because it makes them easier to communicate with each other in other town or overseas. It also helps in the business since some of the cellphones now are provided with internet. Therefore, it will be easier for us to get the information.
Aside from that, some of the cellphones now are having 3G, so we can look/see each other without meet together. I think that, all people should use this equipment because it will be really helpful in their life.
Managing My study.. By:Rendy_1100026000
In this live, there are a lot of types to manage our study. In my life, I also have a type for my study. Usually, Prior to the day of the exam, I always try to study two / three days before. I think, it will make me easier to learn the subject because I learn it slowly / not in the hurry. Although there is no test, I always try to study, if i have leisure time. For the assignment, I' am frequently doing it 3days before the task is submitted. Therefore, when the time is closed to the deadline I already prepare all the assignments completely and it will be ready to be handed in.
English in my Life.. By: Rendy_1100026000
In this world, there are a lot of languages that people use to communicate and or interact with each other. In my life, I can speak 4 different languages. From all the languages which i can speak, one of the most helpful languages for me is English language. This language is helping me in my study from Senior High School up to now. Aside from that, I think it will be useful in my business later.

How I'm going to spend my free time
I only can sleep for 3-4 hours/day,but in week end I can sleep for 12 hours. In otherhand, I ussualy spend my free time by watching film. But if I boring with the film, I will do another activity that can make me not boring anymore. Sometimes I hang out with my friends too,but I think it waste my money. Because my friends in Binus always hang out to Luxurious Cafe. It's very waste my money. In conclusion, for me sleeping always will be the most comfortable way to spend my free time.

My Favourite Musical Instrument
There are many types of Bass called Contra Bass, Acoustic Bass, Electric Bass,etc. They also have their own advantages, like Contra bass. It's very comfortable if we used it to play jazz music,but the problem is the size of Contra bass. Too large. It's very difficult to bring it everywhere. Because of that I think Electric bass is more effectively. Its Body is smaller than Contra bass, so we can easily to bring it. The other reason is Electric Bass have more option than Contra bass. I also prefer to play Electric Bass than Contra Bass.
In conclusion,I love this Instrument. I hope in the future I can be a great bass player.

About BiNus
All of the lecturers are professional in their field.
The lecturers especially for pre-academic English are the native speakers.
And the remainders are all graduated from foreign country, holding Master’s degree and speak English very well.
BiNus is a nice place to study with sufficient facilities such as: full AC classes, wireless internet connection and so on, even it just likes a small office.
BiNus located strategically within the walking distance to Senayan City, Plaza Senayan, STC and Ratu Plaza.
And the nicest one, I thought BiNus International is the only one university which offers double degree program, therefore it is a big opportunity for someone who wish to study abroad only in a year.
In conclusion, BiNus is an extraordinary university.
managing your studies
How English can help you?
Speaking English will help people to get to know each other culture, like if we want to learn about Korean dance but we can’t speak to them. Then we won’t be able to learn about it. But since we both can speak English, there won’t be a problem about it.
We can also make a business connection with other country, so we can expand our business. They can put their money in our company stock, we can many a new company with them, or even buy their franchise. Like Bread talk, J.co, ect.
That’s why by speaking English we able to make our self know many things and get more friend in other country.
Managing your studies
From manage our time we will be able to improve our self and our studies. For example when I separate my time for about 1 or 2 hours every day to do the homework or learn. I will always able to get more concentrate because I know I don’t have much time to studies, so I learn with more serious. Therefore i think to be able to manage our studies, we need to manage our time first.
How English can help you
Firstly,If we can't speak English it will make us difficult to find a job. Especially if we want international job. Many Corporation in Indonesia also prefer to choose people who can speak English than people who cannot speak English to work in their office.
Secondly,English will help us if we want to study abroad. because to study in other country,we should pass the TOEFL test and we should good at speak and remember English. If we use Bahasa I think people in other country can't remember what we say.
There are so many ways to improve your English. We can read English book,watching film,browsing internet,etc. Another way to improve your English is take a course in International Campus,which is using English like Binus International.
in conclusion, you should study English as soon as possible. Because English is very important for us.
Manage your study
The first thing i have to know is discipline. I have to make a schedule and do all my activity base on my schedule. The second thing is do not waste my time when i have an empty time. I have to fill my time to do everything important. Some times, i have to know when i have to take a rest.
Actually, manage your study dtarted from ourself. We have to understand ourself before manage our time.

3 steps to manage your studies
So, if you want to succeed manage your studies you have to pass 3 steps :
First, decide on your desired goals. It can help you to know what you want, what you have to do and what your plan is. By deciding your desired goals, you will get your destination and focus on yours goals.
Second, Manage your study time properly. Time is like money and can't recur your time. Therefore, you have to make your decision about your proper time to reduce your regrets. Example, you make your plan and divide your time for playing, studying, resting and so on.
Third, Responsibility. If you already done the two previous steps the final step is you have to take is responsibilities with what you have planned. It becomes useless if you don't stick to your plan. It will help you to respect more of your time and your plan. In addition, it'll make you push harder to try to do your best. So, to manage your studies based on how you manage your study time, your aim and your responsibilities.
Why girls likes to spend their money than boys?
At least, regrets will come to me. If this is the case, this isn't only happening to me but also most girls. They usually have this problem in their life. It's seems like a bad habit that this happens continuously. And, it will be a serious problem if we still follow our habit and not try to stop this problem. Because this case is related to our habit and money which is one of the most important tools to survive in our life. The good way to solve this problem is to restrain ourselves to not buy anything unnecessary and manage our finance properly. Restraining ourselves is the main way to not have an extravagant lifestyle. I'm already trying this. Luckily, it's working and with good result. Another way to prevent you being an extravagant is by managing your finance. Make a list on how much your money will be spent for books, clothing and food or something unpredictable. Perhaps it will save your money.
My first week in University
The Introduction
Today was a bad day for me. I went to BINUS Anggrek and unfortunately they did not allow me to enter as I wore sandals to the campus area. That was really frustrating because I have a hard time and ways for searching that campus. Around afternoon, I was too sleepy for my drawing lesson so I went out of the class and played around.
In the evening, I was quite mad with my parents for picking me up late. I even dozed off at the sofa of the back lobby all alone. So far this is what I've roughly done today.
How Can English Help Me
English really help me so much because I’m in International University and I must use English in classes, so it helps me to understand about what lecturers said and to understand the books. If you meet people from other country and you don’t understand their language, you will use English in your conversation.
As I will continue my study in Australia for one year on the 6th and 7th semester, English will help me so much to understand what the lecturers say and to chat to the Australian there fluently. If I graduate from BiNus University, I will get job easily because English will very useful for getting a new job.
Managing Your Study
For me, myself, I would spend approximately two hours from Mondays to Fridays at home to study the lessons reviewing what the lecturers said and doing my exercise because I spend my whole Saturday and Sunday in church or just by hanging out for refreshing. By doing that, I hope I can understand more about the lesson and I can answer my lecturer questions if they ask me to.
Also, I would write some schedule in my diary to arrange my activities or make some reminders in my hand phone so that I can remember all I need to do. If you do it everyday then you can manage your time very well.
Managing Your Studies
They are complaining that there are a lot of assignments and tasks to do. Actually, this kind of problem shouldn't be happen. We should manage our time, so we can avoid that problem. There are some ways to manage our time efficiently.
The crucial thing to make efficient is commitment for your own future. The way to manage your time is making a schedule. And try to fulfill that schedule. It is so important to make a schedule, from this you know when you have time to work, and time to play.
A good time management is necessary to make your aim successful. Now we are no longer a child, we must act as a mature person. As a mature adult, we shouldn't be playing around anymore, try to minimize your playing time. Studying hard and always aim for your good future.
The second thing is: never delay your job. You must do your homework as soon as possible. Finally, I think studying in university is not always that busy. We have enough time to do our activities as long as we can manage our time efficiently.

English is very helpful in our career
Sambisari temple
There are many famous ancient Hindu temples in Indonesia, such as Borobudur temple or Prambanan temple. These two temples are already becoming the main attraction in DI Jogjakarta. Many international tourists or national tourists usually go there to see the beautiful scene. If you also like to see ancient temples then you should come to Sambisari temple. Sambisari temple is located about 5.5 km from the west side of Prambanan temple. After it disappeared for centuries because of mount Merapi’s explosion. In July 1966 a farmer went to his rice field and when he started to dig the ground, he accidentally found it. After that, this temple got a reconstruction and the reconstruction was completed in 1986.
The unique thing is that the temple is buried 6.5 m under the ground and it doesn’t have any real foot temple. Unlike other temples that have real foot. In this temple there is one main ancient Hindu and three Perwara temples. Inside it there is a room with Lingga and Yoni statues in the middle. These two statues are an aspect from Siwa, a destruction god in Hindu religion. Beside that the statues also present fertility and totality. Outside every main temple walls there are many statues. For example there are Durga (Death’s god) statue, Ganesha (god of knowledge) statue, or Siwa Mahaguru (a priest that became one of Siwa's aspect) statue. From all the research, experts think that Sambisari temple had already existed from 812 AD until 838 AD. But they still are not sure as to who built the Sambisari temple.
When I came to this temple, it was not as big as Borobudur temple but it was a very beautiful and an artistic temple, especially the statues on the outside wall. There also weren’t many statues that had been stool because Sambisari temple is not as famous as Borobudur temple. So if next time you go to Prambanan temple, I suggest you also come to Sambisari temple, because it has a different attraction and has many unique statues.

Euthanasia
Deadly disease is the one of the reason why people give euthanasia. Doctors give euthanasia to the patient who gets deadly diseases like AIDS, stroke, final stages of cancer and etc. The second is the economic reason. Many people do euthanasia to their family who can not live without the medical treatment. They do that because the expense of using the medical treatment is very expensive.
Many people said that euthanasia is a crime. Actually, euthanasia is not a crime because it has a permission from the patient, the people who is given euthanasia, or the family of the patient. Euthanasia is just one of many ways to help people finished their suffering.

The Key of Happiness
You will enjoy your life, although you don’t get what you want in this world. Maybe your friends can reach their dream and you don’t. Maybe your relatives have more money than you have. Maybe your friends are more popular than you are. There are a lot of chances that they get, but you don’t. Sometimes, you get frustrated and depressed. You are jealous with people that get something better than you. Finally, you will hate your life and of course you'll feel unhappy in your life. I believe to be grateful to God is the key of happiness. If you always love what you get in your life, you will see your life is very beautiful.

Jakarta, the Tourist City
We also have Monas as our symbol. Monas is located in the centre of Jakarta. It looks like a big and tall tower which has gold on top of it. We can also see the first Indonesian flag in Monas. Around Monas, we can find so many peddlars which sell food, drinks, kites, etc.
Third, we also have many traditional Indonesian food. Most tourists like our traditional food because of its taste. Padang food is one of our traditional food. It's very delicious, but not all of the tourist like padang food because padang food usually use hot spices.
Jakarta is a beautiful city and have a lot of entertainment. Therefore, many tourists should come to Jakarta.
