My last fights

I have a great experience in my life, it was happened in grade 11 about 2 years ago, when I was playing football, I found myself uncomfortable because my friend always tackled, pushed , and made a false foul for me. I was very angry...
After the match ended, I was forced to pay for about rp 10000, and it's about 25% of total rent costs. And my friend treaten me if I didn't pay for that. I feel unfair and I didn't want to pay and my friend become angry and tell I'm an idiot and pushed me. and we began to fights..
I never talk to him for until 1 year. then, I find him again, and play again with him. And it seems we forget for what we done 1 year ago, and he respected me.
I learn for this experience, that fights didn't solve problem, but makes problem bigger....

My First Organiazation

When I was in junior high school, I had some interest in joining organization. I thought, I would get many experiences if I joined an organization. But unfortunately I didn’t have a chance to join organization at that time.

Since that time, I motivated myself to enter the organization life. Finally, my dream came true. I had a chance to join in my first organization. My first organization was OSIS. OSIS was an organization which formed to watch and organized the activities of the student at school.

I got many experiences when I joined this organization I learned how to be good leader, how to solve problem in the limited time and also I learned hoe to keep my task organized although I had another business in OSIS. On the other hand I must learn to work in my new job because I have chosen as a treasurer in OSIS. Working as a treasurer was not easy. I always have to be careful where it concern the money of OSIS. At that time I really trained to be careful person because before that I was a careless person. In my conclusion joining in an organization can make me feel more confident to lead my friends and I got a lot of new experiences in my life.

Playboy Kabel

Reality show is a television program that played without script. It was very interesting because that program is very natural. Few years ago, There are so many reality show in the TV like, Katakan Cinta, Playboy Kabel, Bedah Rumah, Uang Kaget, Simple Life,etc. My favorite reality show program is "Playboy Kabel". Playboy Kabel is a reality show that was made to catch a boys who plays with the other girls altough already had a girlfriend. So many girls can test her boyfriend by this reality show. In this program we also can watch how a boy lying to his girlfriend.
Finally,Playboy Kabel was one of the reality show program that had good rating. Why? maybe because the program very entertained. It can make us laugh when a boy was caught by his girlfriend when he was lying.

Reality Show ToLooong

This reality show is the most interesting movies that ever showed in the television. First, they told normal people that they hire to act as their actors / actress, they will find their target and when they found the target, they will ask for their help, wheather asking for help, some money, or even to buy their goods, if they refused, the actor will leave them, but if they willing to help, the "Tolong" crew will come and give them quite a lot of money. This show teach people how to help other people without seeing what is their status.

My Regret

This is happened when I’m in my high school times. When I first fall in love with a girl, I loved her that I can’t sleep, concentrate, and study without thinking of her. It is my first experience in loving a girl, and thus such events occur, I and my girlfriend had a big quarrel, and then we break. At that time, maybe it was the worst day in my life, my whole activities are in a mess.
From that time on, my evil sides come up, I start to think that every girl is the same, and I want to take revenge. Every single girl that come to me, I accept them as my girlfriend but at last, I broke their heart. This continuous till I hear a gossips about me, that almost whole of my high school friends give me a nickname “Playboy”. I don’t even care about that, so I ignored it. But it was my big mistake, now it is the time when I fall in love again with another girl, and she refused me, because she knows that I’m a Playboy.
Now I understand that I am wrong and I really regret it. Not every girls are the same, and we must trust God, that He will give us the love that we are searching for, someday.

My Own Experience

I want to tell you about my own experience that my father know I lying him. It was happen when I was in senior high school. At that moment I was absent from the school class. My father didn't know because in the morning before I go to school,I permit to him that I go to school. It's not the first time I lying him. Before that day I have absent 5 days in 1 month and he never know.
At that day, I want to go around the city by motorcycle. It's not ussual,because I ussualy use car. When I was go around with my motorcycle, I had and accident. My motorcycle was hit by a car and also damaged badly. I was injured. It's very hurt. After that, I had be forced to call my father because my motorcycle can be used again,but I'm afraid my father will be angry. After thinking in a few minutes, I have make a decision to call my father. Like I guess before,my father really angry to me. He said that he angry not because the accident,but because I lying him.
In this experience, I had learn one lesson that whatever we had done,someday we will take the responsibility.

Last Minute

I was 12 years old and after doing the year 4 of my Elementary school. I had an afternoon class therfore i played in the morning with my friends who had the afternoon class too. I was supposed to go to school at 12.00pm and yet around 11.45am i was not prepared yet. So my guardian shouted at me as i was at the second floor of my house. I panicked and quickly wanted to rush down the stairs but accidentally, somebody pushed me from my back so i fell and rolled down the stairs to the first floor. I broke my leg and my forehead turned blue black covered with blood immeadiately. The pain was killing me and i was brought to the hospital and was hospitalized for 2 days to nurse my broken leg. I got a 2 weeks medical certificate. From that moment, i had learnt a lesson that not to be a last minute person.

reality show~

There are a lot of kinds of movies on Television Program, for example: Horror, Actions, Cartoon, Quiz, Reality show, and etc. By writing this, I want to talk one of them, which is reality show.
"Uang Kaget" . "Uang kaget" is one of the reality show in Indonesia.

This reality show has a purpose to help other people in Indonesia who do not have really much money. In here, the person will be given an amount of money, and he/ she should use the money for buying their needs.

I think this program is the social reality show and it is very good and it can help others who not really rich.

One of My Experiences

Every one in this world must have his/ her own experienced. Some of them have good experinced and some of them have not really good experienced. Therefore, for the people who have bad experienced, they should learn from it and try to not to repeat it again anymore.

For me, I also have my own experienced, which is when I was in High School I was really relax and I didn't want to study and make homework. Until the test were coming, I also didn't study for it, so when I did all my exams I felt that I could not do it and it would fail. Finally, as the result were come out, almost all my exams were really bad and failed. Therefore, Most of the teachers told me to do the make up test. Then, for the week after that, I did the make up test.

I was really regreted and since from that time, I tried to be not lazy anymore, studied harder, made all the assignments correctly and on time.

Asked parents before do anything

When I was in Junior High School, I wish I can drive a car. I asked my mom to teach me driving a car. Then, on a half first grade finally my sister decided to teach me behind my mother’s back. A days later, I can drove the car but wasn’t good enough. At least, I had had to learn more. I thought I can drove the car was enough and I was so confident asked my aunts when she and my cousins spent the nights in my house to let me tried to taking out the car from garage. My aunt quite for several time and she nodded her head. So, I took the position and began to start the engine. But, I forgot to close the door. In my mind, I thought I can do it. Then, I stepped on the pedal and take over the gear to the reverse option suddenly, my aunt yelled and pulled the car’s door to hold the car spontaneously. But as long as my aunt made me panic as deep as I stepped on the pedal gas and I can’t thought clearly I kept stepped on pedal gas. Then, the car’s door crashed the pillar at my house while I kept stepped on pedal gas. Suddenly, I realized and I change my foot position to the break pedal. And every thing calmer but I started crying. Unfortunately, it was my uncle’s car and I felt so guilty. My mom scolded me and suggest me to call my uncle for apologize. This experience seems likes the lesson that I learned which is doing started any things without your parents permission.

Bicycle Accident

The accident happened when I was going to graduate from junior high school. That day, I went to school and signature some school certificate. In my school, my friend told me that they wanted to go to Nana’s house and asked me to go with them. Because Nana’s house neared my house, I decided to go with them.
In her house, we played cards and had lunch together. After that we went to the street and turned right to the volley’s yard. From there we needed to pass a high slope to reach the volley’s yard. One of my friends brought bicycle and rode that bicycle down the slope. Then he told us it was very fun. After that, Nana also tried it and told me to do that too. At first I felt afraid, but then I thought I can do this because I used to play bicycle in my complex. After that all I could remember was I rode the bicycle and went down the slope.
Suddenly I was at the hospital with my mother. The doctor in front of me asked many question about the accident but I didn’t remember anything. But I still could felt that my head, hands, and teeth were in pain. After that, he told me to get a CT-scan. In the result he found out I had a blood frozen in my left forehead and it cause a short lost memory. Because of this and all the bruises I need to stay at the hospital for 1 day and bed rest for 4 days. From this accident I learned to follow my own hearts, not just follow my friends.

OSIS

When I was in high school, I became a prefect. It was very difficult for me to work and share the same idea with others. One day I had a financial problem with the head master. It was about the year book sponsor. I lost the money from my sponsor, casio. It was a huge amount of money for the prefect comitee. The money was suppose to be used to pay the paper printing. It is a terrible situasion for the comitee, because the payment is due the next day.

My deputy and I remember that we had given the money to the head master. But, when I want to take the money from the head master, he said that the head never receive the money from us. I was shocked with what he said. That moment, I did not know what I had to do. I discussed about the problem with the comitee. We try to solve the problem. The fact is when I gave the money to my head master, my deputy was also there along with me. The comitee were all disappointed to the head master. Luckily, my teacher saw when we gave the money to the head master. For that evidence, the head master had nothing to say. But the money was still not given back.

From that problem, I learned that I have to handle things with care and remember to always have a written prove when I pass something important such as money to other people.

Cheating is Nothing

When I was in elementary school, I had a friend, her named Thalita. We often ate, played, and talked together. One day the teacher gave examination for the next day, and the teacher wanted us to study seriously, but my friend Thalita said that she didn't want to study; she wanted to make a note to cheat for the examination. I was thinking about her idea and I thought it was a good idea, so I made a note too.
I was very nervous during the examination, because if my teacher found out that I was cheating, it would be very terrible. Because I didn't study last night, so I decided to cheat. I was not a professional cheater, so the teacher could saw me cheating. My teacher became angry and he said he would not trust me again. When I received my report, I got a bad score for his lesson, my mother asked why I had a bad score for that lesson, so I said the truth. My mother was mad, but she still trust me. In this lesson, my conclusion means cheating is nothing.

Posponing my assignment is a bad habit

In the past, I liked to postpone my homework until the due date. My father warned me to do it immediately, but I did not listen to his advice. Postponing my homework became my habit. I did not change my behavior although the last day before the deadline, I got depressed. I regretted it, but I repeated the same mistake.

One day I got an assignment. I had to make an essay that needed long time to finish it. I did not do it as soon as possible. I believed that I could finish it on time, and on the last day, I did not finish my work. I was frustrated and I started to cry. At that time, I did not want to go to school. Lucky for me, my teacher expanded the due date. God gave me a second chance. As a result, I learned that I had to change my habit. I realize that time is a precious thing and once I lose it, I will never get it back.

Cheating on Exam

Junior high school is the last when I cheated. Receiving the report of 8th grade made me unsatisfied and regret about it. The report was filled with good score and I was in the 8th rank, but I didn’t feel happy, because the test was not done on my own. Cheating has many disadvantages, for example like, once a time, I had a correct answer, but I was not sure, so I cheated, copied the answer from my friend and got the wrong answer. At last, I don’t want to cheats ever again.

reality show

"Bedah rumah" is the reality show in Indonesia. This reality show has a purpose to help the other people who don not have much money to fix their house. "Bedah rumah" give all the equipment-like sofa, refrigerator, bed, etc-in the house that "bedah rumah" prepared.

Usually, 'bedah rumah" looking for the family who are not rich. "Bedah rumah" is the social reality show. "Bedah rumah" is the reality show in RCTI.

Playboy Kabel

Since couple years ago, the most delight television program is reality show. it can be like that because the audience was interested with natural case that happened in the show. Many audience said that the reality show program can play with our emotion. Sometime they can make our emotion up and down in a few minutes so i think it was reason why the reality show become the most delight program and it can make many people interest on them.
"Playboy kabel" is one of reality show which was still had the best ratting show from its launch until now. The first idea for this show came from nowadays many boys in Indonesia became players and always play with other girls although he has already had a girlfriend. So this reality show give chance for girl to make the playboy be cured from his habit and aware from his fault. I think a lot of fact will be proven by this reality show and it can make many people realize about their surrounding and it will remind them to always be careful with anyone and don't trust anyone 100%.

Irak is one of dessert county in middle east. It's located between Turkey in the north side and Iran in the east side. As we know, the temperature in dessert country like Irak is very high in the afternoon and very low at nigh, there are just some of plants and animals can live there. Although Irak is a dessert country, Irak has two fertile area, there are Eupharates and Tigris area. At those area there are two rivers which is flowing full of years. Because of that many people which live in Irak work as a farmers. Although most of Irak's people work in agricultural, Irak's economy is not dominated in agricultural sector but it's dominated in oil sector. Irak is one of famous country which has a large oil resources in this world. Because of that until now many countries in this world fight to get monopoli in Irak oil trading. So i think because of that, Irak has many chance to become one of develop country in this world.

Advantages writing via blog

The modern day technology enables us to do just about everything; among the ones we are provided with, the World Wide Web seems to play a huge role in our lives. Who here has never surfed the Web? Be it briefly once a week, or perhaps literally 24-hours per day, of course we have. The Web can give us access to almost anything. In fact, the World Wide Web, in itself, is a world of its own; a cyber world. In today’s post, I’d like to point out and explain the benefits of a specific activity one can engage in while surfing the Web; blogging. The term ‘blog’ means an online journal. But why keep an online diary when you can have a real one? What can we get out of this? These are the following reasons that might help you understand, based on my opinion. First of all, blogging, in itself is a community. Where else can you meet so many great, like-minded people? It’s a great way to share ideas and enter into discussions with people who share the same interests. In other words, we’ll never be alone. And not only do we help grow ourselves in that certain community, we will also establish a recognition of us, in that community. It’s also pretty much time and cost efficient; we can edit our posts, so should we feel the need to rephrase our old memories with our new found language skill, it’s simply one click away. Simple, fast and easy. And as for cost efficiency? Well, of course it is. Blogging is free!

These are really just a few of the many benefits of blogging, but I believe that it’s more than enough to satisfy the discussion, so I’ll be leaving this at that. Thanks.

My Opinion about Iraq

For long I've kept myself away from news of violence and war, simply because such complicated events are endlessly portrayed and unnecessarily over-publicized to the point that it was enough to make anyone feel sick. One such news that I’ve ignored is Iraq. But, although I have never been in tune with the whatever things that’s going on in that country, the rumors still reach me, either through my friends or through discussions such as these. every little understanding that I know of Iraq, I'll try and share it with you here. I recall it being a small country in the Middle East, highly reputable for being swarmed with two types of citizens; terrorists and the poor. First of all, no one can deny the view of how most Arabs are likely seen as terrorists. And those there who, in reality, are not terrorists are believed to be poor. Citizens who've lost their family to the war are most likely struggling to survive with what they have remaining of them. Well in a nutshell, I suppose this is really all I can say about Iraq. Short and sweet enough, don’t you think?

~ Iraq ~

In this world, there are a lot of countries, for example: Singapore, Australia, Indonesia, Iraq, Arab Saudi, and so on. In this writing, i want to talk about Iraq.

Since I don't like that country so much, I think In Iraq it is quite hot country. Now that country is in the war and cause the value of their money decrease a lot. So my friends, my family, and a lot of people said that after they finish the war the value of their money will be back, and i suggest that we buy it now and try to change it when the value is increased.

iraq

Well, i really don't know much about Iraq.
since i don't have family, siblings and also friend there.
The only little thing about iraq is that country is located in middle east, near to the Kuwait and Saudi Arabia, which have capital city that is known as Baghdad.
It have currency known as dinar.

Iraq, also known as republic of Iraq, is maybe now in a war.
so now the iraq currency rate is going down compared to rupiah.
after the war has finished later, some people predict that Iraq's currency will rise again.
so, better buy dinar now, and sell it after Iraq has finished they war.

iraq

Iraq attualy known as the Republic of Iraq. Iraq located in middle east, near to the Kuwait and Saudi Arabia. The capital city is Baghdad. Iraq's rich history dates back to ancient mesopotamia. Iraq wellknown as one of the country that had produce tons of oil every year. Iraq also known as one of the biggst source of world oil supply. Iraq back in 1990, under the leader of president Saddam Hussein own about 20% of world oil. But sadly at the same year Iraq gave invasion to Kuwait. That invasion gave bad raputation for Iraq in the world eyes. Some say the invasion was base on the some rumor that had said "that the Kuwait had stoled some oil from Iraq." But some had also said that "Saddam want to dominate the oil production in Kuwait". By the time if the invasion was successful it's mean that Saddam had dominated 40% of world oil. But more sadly since 2003, Iraq has been invasion by the american. This time the invasion is base on the war of terrorism. Hope that things can work out for this rich land. So they can develop their county and thransform it to be a beautiful and successful country like Dubai.

By writing via blog, we can share our stories, oppinions, or comments, to the others. People nowdays usually used internet to communicate, and find sources of informations.

In this blog, 01PBB, we are told to make many writings and compositions, to improve our English grammar and spellings. Example, one of the blog website is Blogger, etc.

Of the Republic of Iraq

The Republic of Iraq, commonly referred to as Iraq, is a country in the Middle East; surrounded by mountain ranges and desert. The origin of its name, Iraq, is widely believed to have come from the Aramaic language, literally translated as “the land along the banks of rivers”. In reality, Iraq mainly consists of desert and rivers. Two of which, the area in between is fertile; Euphrates and Tigris.


The history of Iraq dates back to the Ancient Mesopotamian era (around 5000 B.C) and was home to the world’s first known civilization, the Sumerian culture, followed by many others. Despite the amazing history Iraq has, however, in this present day, they are more often recalled as the country which America had invaded in March 2003. Apparently, a conflict was spewed between Iraq and the U.S in belief that the prior country was a threat to the afore; distinction was made and declared yet the matter is still a controversial topic among modern day citizens.

Following the invasion, studies of the war casualties were conducted and resulted in a report of more than half a million civilian deaths. However, it is possible that the report was exaggerated. Nevertheless, a life of poverty is almost a certainty for the survivors. In sum for what I have to say of Iraq, I believe that it is ironic to see how much this once great country has fallen.

Also, university like BiNus International uses blog for collecting tasks, especially for English subject. Since I joined and started writing in blog, I have gained many advantages.

Hanging Gardens of Babylon

Do you know that one of the seven wonders in the world located in Iraq?
Talking about Iraq is not all about war, terrorist and people who killed each other. Despite it is one of the most dangerous country in the world, Iraq has a potential side of tourism. It was Hanging Gardens of Babylon. They were built by Nebuchadnezzar II around 600 BCE. It was built for Amities, Nebuchadnezzar’s wife, who missed her hometown, especially its tress and flagrant plants there. Their marriage was for politic purpose. Nebuchadnezzar II wished to integrate Babylon and Media.
They are 130feet in width and 400feet in length and 80feet in height.
It was a fascinating place more than all over city in the world in that time. They are full of flagrant flowers inside, plants, tress, etc. Also, there are a palace of Nebuchadnezzar and some temples, such as: Ishter Temple, Nabu Temple and Ninimakh Temple. In conclusion, Iraq is a nice place with nice people, despite all the terrorist activities.

Writting via blogs makes us brave to speak out with english. Actually, that makes us understand about computer and internet too.

Iraq

Actually, i'm not really know about Iraq. Generally, Iraq is a country in the middle east that had a capital city, Baghdad, in the center-east. The region of iraq was historically as known as mesopotamia which means in the between of Rivers.

Area Iraq was divided into 18 governorat, such as Baghdad, Salah ad Din, Diyala, Wasit, Maysan, Al Basrah, Dhi Qar, Al Muthanna, Al-Qādisiyyah, Babil, Karbala, An Najaf, Al Anbar, Ninawa, Dahuk, Arbil, At Ta'mim (Kirkuk), and As Sulaymaniyah. And the governorat were divided into some of qadhas.

Nowadays, in the most recent millenium, iraq has been made up of five culture areas: Kurdish in the north centered on Arbil, Sunni Islamic Arabs in the center around Baghdad, Shi'a Islamic Arabs in the south centered on Basra, the Assyrians, a Christian people, living in various cities in the north, and the Marsh arabs, a nomadic people, who live on the marshlands of the central river.

writing via blog

Internet is the fastest and easiest connection to other country, don't talk about the phone call. there are many "facilities" that internet provides for easier connection. Like chatting, e-mail. this is the new invention for connection, the blog. blog is similar like forum, because we write something and we share with other people. the visitor of the blog can see our posting. so maybe, they can get some information from our blog. for the user, they can get new friend there. that's fun. I think, writing via blog is useful because not provides a good info, but also can improve our writing, and reading.

Iraq

Iraq, is a middle east country located Kuwait and Saudi Arabia to the south, Jordan to the west, Syria to the northwest, Turkey to the north, and Iran to the east. Iraq's capital is Baghdad city.Iraq's has 2 independence eras, which is October 1,1919 from Otoman Empire. And October 3, 1932 from United Kingdom.

Iraq consist of deserts, and only the area between river tigris and euphrates, contain the most fertile area in Iraq.For it's climate, in the afternoon it's very hot and dry. But, in Night it's mild and cold. And for it's natural resource, Iraq is the 2nd biggest oil after Saudi Arabia. Comprising about 112 million oil barrels. For it's Economy Iraq dominated in Oil, as their foreign earning. And because of the heavy oil production.

Iraq have so many war, because the american blame that iraq have a something like biological weapon. So, in my opinion, Iraq is a dangerous country, because of a civil war, invasion from other country, and something else. But, I proud of them, because they are still good of spirit and mentality, even though there are so many conflict in their lives.

Iraq

For me Iraq is a very controversial country. On one side there always many war happened in there. War happened between the culture areas or with another country. Like in Tuesday there were news that there was a suicide bomb that at least killed 14 people and injured 30 people in Baghdad, It happened because the resistance to Al-Qaeda group. Usually the war that happened is with a near country. Iraq is a country in the Middle East, it shares border with Kuwait and Saudi Arabia to the south, Jordan to the west, Syria to the northwest, Turkey to the north and Iran to the east. For example now there is also a dispute between Iraq and Turkey. In the border of Turkey-Iraq there are Turkey soldiers shooting Iraq citizen.
On the other side I think Iraq is very beautiful and has many different cultures.
The origin of the name “Iraq” has many meaning.Some said that it come from the Sumerian city of Uruk, other said Iraq comes from the Aramaic language, meaning “the land along the banks of the rivers”, another that Iraq refers to the root of a palm tree.
Iraq also has many hitory back to the Mesopotamia. The reagion between the Tigris and Euphrates rivers id identified as the Fertile Crecent, the cradle of civilization, and birthplace of writing. Iraq’s famous instrument called the oud (similar to a lute) and a rebab (similar to a fiddle).
That’s why I think Iraq is a controversial country, because when you see from different side this country can be a very beautiful and historical place or a nightmare with an everlasting war.

Writing Via Blog

Nowadays computer take a big part in our life. Technology has been improving a lot and with that computer become more important for us. If in the past we wrote in paper, now we use internet to send our writing. For our writing we need to put it in our blog, and I think writing via blog is a good thing.
The first reason is because we don’t need to make hard-copy so it will be more efficient and we can see our mistake directly. For example if we used hard-copy, we needed to pay for the print. Beside that if we want to know our mistake we can just open our blog, and see the different color word.
Second from writing via blog, we will get used to operate computer. Because we have to do our assignment from blog, we won’t feel weird if we must use computer in our work.
Even though for some people who don’t have internet in their home writing via blog is a bad thing, but I think writing via blog has more advantanges than disadvantages.

Writing via Blogs

In my opinion, writing in English is the best way to improve our skill. Every week, we have to contribute our writing in blogs. We can read people’s opinions and also give our comments. Beside that, the lecturer can correct our writing. Maybe we just write one paragraph, but it is also very useful. Basically, we have to practice every week so we can learn how to make good writing. Writing via blog is very simple because nowadays people are so familiar with the internet. I think many people can contribute their ideas easily.

Iraq

When I hear the word Iraq, my mind directly connects it with the war country. The war causes many innocent people feel very painful. Many victims have to struggle if they want to survive through all the pain. In the other hand, we can say that Iraq is the sadness country. But, it doesn’t mean that some people lose their hopes. Iraq proved that thing in Asian Cup. The football team won against Arab Saudi. The score was 1-0 for Iraq. It was very unforgettable moment. In my opinion, In spite of our suffering, we still have wishes to fight for better life.

Writing Via Blog

In this era, many people are using internet technology as a communication tools. Nowadays, internet not only used to communicate with others but also to write our opinion or story on the internet. Before a blog were used by many people, we normally use a chat room facility to communicate with the others. In blog, you can comment what peoples write and post your writing. However, many universities using blog as a communication facility between student and teacher beside email. For example, Bina Nusantara University use blog as part of their teaching tools where the students can hand in their assignment or exercise and post it to the blog so the lectures can give the comment and correction. Blog can also be used as a diary too where you can up to date your daily life and telling interesting story. Finally, I think blog is very useful especially for us as a student to improve our writing, reading and it's very fun.

Iraq

Iraq is one of the biggest country in the east and one of the biggest oil's producer. Not only the biggest oil producer, but also they have many people living in there. It's too sad to see Iraq destroyed because of the the America's invation to Iraq. As a result of invation, many people died in there, including women, children, and all innocent people. As we know from the news that the war is still continue and the bomb can explode anytime and anywhere. It make us aware of the danger situation that happened in Iraq, especially toward those people who lived there. At this time we can't do much to help those victims. However, we can give what we have such as donate some money and unused clothes. I hope the war is going to be over and the invation will not happen again in any other countries.

Iraq

Iraq is a beautiful country. Located in Middle East near Saudi Arabia, Syria, Iran, and Turkey.
It's a rich country because of their oil well. It had so many income from sold the oil which is ranked second in the world behind Saudi Arabia in amount of oil reserves. The Capital City of Iraq is Baghdad. It's the biggest city in Iraq,the second largest city in Middle East,and one of the hottest city in the world. Baghdad also played an important role in Arab cultural life and has been the home of writters, musician, and artist.
The most famous Iraq president is Saddam Hussein. He was famous because of his cruel. In 2006,He was dead by the execution from world government.
Iraq had a two beautiful rivers called Tigris and Euphrates. The region between Tigris and Euphrates also identified as the birthplace of writing. It's very admirable. Maybe it makes many tourist come to Iraq besides cause of its beautiful country.
In 2003,Iraq had been attacked by United States and United Kingdom. Their reason is cause of Iraq chemical weapon project but,so many people said it just a calumny by United States to Steal Iraq's oil well, because their reason to take an invansion never proven until now.
Nowadays, Iraq not like in the past. It don't have a person who leads its country. After the invansion, Iraq's citizen tried to preserve the country without a leader,but it's not succeed.

The Country and People Of Iraq

Iraq, officially Republic of Iraq. 17 July 1968 is day of revolution. Iraq became an independent state on 3 october 1932. Iraq have two largest ethnic groups are Arabs and Kurds. 80% of Iraq people is Islam. The languages they use is arabic, But few of them can speak in english. 75% of Iraq's population lives in the flat, alluvial plain stretching southeast toward Baghdad and Basrah to the Persian Gulf. Most the people in the world hear about iraq, think bout war, terrorism, saddam and many other bad things. But, the real is Iraq people is very independent. People of Iraq is very obedient. They always try to preserve the country. Iraq people also always preserve they national culture. They try to obedient for the country, although they must give they life.
The Leadership of Iraq is president. I belived we all know the story about Sadam Husein. He is President of Iraq, before his get the execution. Although Sadam Husein was cought, People of Iraq try to preserve the country without leader. Many people, especially young and child pass away because war between U.S and Iraq. When Sadam Husein still became a President, Iraq have a big oil produce. Iraq also import the oil for others country. Now, Sadam already pass away and Iraq have new Leadership, But The country and People is still the same, because they always uphold they country and cultural.

My Free Time

University sometimes wastes so much of our energy and our mind. By spending our free time effectively we will get many advantages. I have several things to do in my leisure time.
After I arrived home from university, if I feel tired, I will get sleep for an hour or more. It makes my energy charges back and gives more spirit for me to spend the rest of the day.

In the evening, I usually watch TV to spend my free time or maybe I provide some free time to watch TV especially at 21.30 to watch 4 'mata' on Trans 7. It is such an amusing talk show program. It makes me forget about my tiring day for a while. Usually, I also read something while the TV is on advertising sessions, for example: lessons (sometimes), comics, doing my exercises or preparing for tomorrow’s assignment, if any.

If I get bored with TV, I will hear music, either from mp3 players or from radio. Actually, I like hear Trax FM on 101.4 channels. By having some of those activities, I spend my time effectively.

Personality

In our life, we know four different personalities. There are sanguine, melancholic, phlegmatic, and choleric. Every personality has many different character, logical thinking and point of view. Sanguine people have a popular character because people who have this character are very extrovert, talkative and optimistic. Everything they do, will always interest people. Vice versa, melancholic people have very perfectionist character. They are very introvert, serious and pessimistic. In their eyes every thing must be perfect. If they make a mistake, they can get stress and cry easily. On the other hand, the strong character is had by Choleric person. The choleric person is very extrovert, emotional but they have ability to become a leader. The last personality is phlegmatic. Phlegmatic person has calm personality. In fact phlegmatic person can be a good listener, they can help their friends to solve their problem easily. In the end, my conclusion is every personality have strength and weakness. So, because of that they must support each other to get better life.

My Free Time at Home

When I have free time from all the assignments and all activities, I will spend it at home. At home many things I can do all day, First, I will play video game for many hours, I play many games, for example sport game, action game, first person shooter game, and rpg game. Second I will see a movie on dvd, maybe there will be many films that I will watch in my free time, for example the movie that I will watch will be comedy, horror, drama and action movie. Thirdly, I will maybe sleep to rest my mind from all the activities and the assignments. Fourth, and the last I will read newspaper and see the news on television, because I think I will know the update news and know what's happening in Indonesia or another country, so those are the activities that I spend during my free time at home.

My Hobby

I like reading very much. Reading is very useful to improve my knowledge. By reading, I can get the social information about anything that happens around me, our country, even in other country. Also I can get scientific information. It is about our earth or our universe, the atmosphere’s contents, improvement of the technology, etc. So, I think everyone has to read. Because they can be smarter and have wider knowledge by reading.

Week 1. The Power Of Love

Do you ever feel the power of love?

Sad when he / she was beside us,
we cried when we both are happy,
smile when he's / she's gone,
and I'm glad when he / she leaving us.

I have ever experience it,

I sad when she was beside me, why? Because I'm scared to lose her.
I cried when we both are happy, you know why? Because I'm afraid that this happiness will be ended.
I smile when she's gone, because i know, i'm not the perfect man for her, even if i love her.
I'm glad when she's leaving me, because I trust that GOD will find another man for her.

Week 2. Managing my studies

As we all are moving from high school life to university life, we should totally change. Whether in the studies, schedules, characters, and even lifestyles. We usually have a lot of times to play when we are in high school, and we have little assignment or homework. While in the university, it's totally different. My solutions are, we should manage our times, make a time table, to separate between our university work and house or other works. I usually finish my assignment or homework, as soon as possible before the dateline, so, in the remaining day, i can relax and do another jobs.

Week 3. English can help us in many ways

English has become one of the most important languages, followed by Mandarin (Chinese), etc. English is spoken in many countries, such as America, Australia, Europe, even in the Asia. People in different countries cannot communicate with each other by using their language, they use English to share their conversation. English can help me, to learn more, to know other countries, and to communicate with them, and I think, it is compulsory for us to know, at least I can hear and understand the meaning. Another reason is, English is used in the business world, to buy and sell, to trade or to negotiate. That's why English can help me and even you, in so many aspects, so, let's learn English!

Week 4. Basketball

Basketball, consists of 10 players of both teams, and total of 14 subtitudes. That's mean, 5 player and 7 subtitudes for each team. Each team needs to compete to get the ball and shoot it to the basket ring, and will get a score of 2 points. And if we shoot from the outer line of the half circle it will get a score of 3 points. The time for the match is divided into four rounds, each round have 10 minutes time, and will be given extra time when it is a draw.There are several names for fouls, double, travelling, jump, and tackling. And there are several skill called, duckling, cross over, fade away, under ring, slam dunk, fast break, and turn over. On the field there are two referees each one guiding each side for fouls and cheating. Normally, in the NBA each team can score from 80 to 100 points at the end of the match.

Week 5. My free time

I spend my free time by going abroad, and find interesting jobs to do. By going abroad we can see other parts of the world, as we get more information and view about another culture and habits. On the other hand, I can also find part time job, to increase my income. My father told me to help him in his business, and I do it. My father also gives me some payment for that. In another spare time, I can relax, and play at home or even go to mall for refreshing with my friends. I can also go with my hobby that is playing basketball. That's all, this is how, I can spend my free time.

Spending My Time during Holiday

Holiday will come, I can't wait. Spending my time for sleep is the best. But, unfortunately I must spend my time to do home things, such as, sweep, cook, wash , and others. Helping your mom isn't bad, right? Other than that, I will spend my holiday by playing game, reading comics, and drawing. it's my plan to do so. Maybe during holiday, my family and I will go somewhere to have a fun and get refreshing. Or else in this Idul Fitri holiday, we eat ketupat sayur. H mm...yummy. Well, that's my plan during my holiday.

I'm going to spend my free time

During my free time I usually go to book store or coffee shop. Why I choose those places, because I feel comfortable there. I can spend lots of time there, from searching for books that I need or just looking for something new. If you spend time in books store, you can save lots of money. Why? because you can read some of books that you want without buying it first or even made library member card first. That is why I like to spend my free time in book stores. But I also like to spend my free time in a coffee shop. But this habit can cost me lots of money. Why? Because I like Starbucks. for this habit I prefer to go with my parents, so I don't have to use my money.

How am I going to spend my leisure time

People in this world always have their leisure time after working or studying. To fill in their free time, they have their own way to fill in their free time. For me, if I have the leisure time usually I use it by making my homework/assignments. Therefore, I’ll be free later, since I already made it before. Besides of doing my tasks, when I am at home, I’ll fill my free time for sleeping, watching TV, or listening the music. For the weekend (on Saturday) usually I hang out with my friends to mall, café, or playing billiards. Then, for the weekend, (on Sunday), I always go with my parents where ever they go.

The cause of traffic jam in Jakarta

In Jakarta (capital city of Indonesia), there is always traffic jam everyday, since the number of vehicles are always increasing. Besides, many people buy car, they also buy motorbikes and trucks. Therefore, the space on the road is becoming narrow and full of the vehicles. Now, the government build the bus way and it is causing the space on the road to become smaller. Even though sometimes the bus way is empty, we can not pass the road and I think this is the other reason why Jakarta is having more traffic jam.
