Song

At this post, I want to share one of "friendship" song theme, it's Count On Me by Bruno Mars.I've Only just hear it and I've already like this song. The lyrics are already in the song (video) so you can sing while playing it...

Now i want to tell the meaning of this song. We are humans, We are a social beings which means we can't live without someone's help, and we will always rely on someone, and that someone is friends. Friends are people who can laugh together with you and friends are people who will help you if you get problems that you think you can solve this by yourself.So when you have big problems, don't just solve it yourself, count on your friends too. At least, talk your problem to them so they will know and maybe they can help you out somehow.

Bandung City Tour

MUSEUM GEOLOGI (GEOLOGICAL MUSEUM)

A few days ago I visited Museum Geologi for my English task, it should be a week ago but my schedule were full back then. Museum Geologi is one of Bandung's famous museum. It is a meseum that focused on ancient rocks, ancient animal's fossils, and earth's structure.Almost everyday Museum Geologi is visited by many visitors, the majority of the visitors are students and teenagers.There are also many food stands outside the museum which make visitors comes to museum not only for seeing ancient things, but also to taste various food outside the museum.On the museum yard there are many spots to sit and eat, so visitors can buy foods outside and eat it at the museum yard.

At the museum yard there are many ancient structures already. Some of them are Sarkofagus and stone cycle park. Sarkofagus is one of the technology used at prehistoric era. It is a burrying system using stones as a vessel. It is first founded in Bali, there are 2 parts of Sarkofagus, the bottom one is a vessel where the corpse stored and the top part is for the cover. The stone cycle park is where vaious stones from ancient times stored.One of the stones are Sedimen stones.

When entering the museum, you must buy the ticket, but because I came there 15 minutes before the museum closed, I got free acces for entering the museum. At the front of the museum there is a big anime fossils . At the right ward of the museum. There are many ancient stones in small size and many ancient animal's fossils there. At the second floor there are some building's miniature and there is an earth's structure room, the room was already closed back then so i can't entered.

White Tiger

    The white tiger is a pigmentation variant of the Bengal tiger, which is reported in the wild from time to time in States of India like Assam, Bengal, Bihar,Sunderbans and especially in the former State of Rewa. The White Bengal tigers are distinctive for their color fur. According to the website, “Animal Corner,” the correct term to name the white tiger is Chinchilla albinistic. The white fur is due to the lack of pheomelanin pigment, which is found in Bengal tigers with orange color fur. When compared to Bengal tigers, the white Bengal tigers tend to grow faster and heavier than the orange Bengal tiger. They also tend to be somewhat bigger at birth, and as fully grown adults. White Bengal tigers are fully grown when they are 2–3 years of age. White male tigers reach weights of 200 to 230 kilograms and up to 3 meters in length. Similar to zebras, the white Bengal tiger’s stripes are like fingerprints, no two tigers have the same. Also, the stripes of the tiger are a pigmentation of the skin. For a white Bengal tiger to be born, both parents must carry the unusual gene for white colouring, which, according to the website “Animal Corner,” only happens naturally about once in 10,000 births. As stated by Kailash Sankhala, the director of the New Delhi Zoo in the 1960s, “one of the functions of the white gene tiger may have been to keep a size gene in the population, in case it's ever needed." Dark-striped white individuals are well-documented in the Bengal tiger subspecies, also known as the Royal Bengal or Indian tiger (Panthera tigris tigris or P. t. bengalensis), and may also have occurred in captive Siberian tigers (Panthera tigris altaica)[citation needed], as well as having been reported historically in several other subspecies.

     A white tiger's pale coloration is due to the lack of the red and yellow pigments that normally produce the orange color. This had long been thought to be due to a mutation in the gene for the tyrosinase enzyme. A knockout mutation in this gene results in albinism, the inability to make either pheomelanin or eumelanin, while the consequence of a less severe mutation in the same gene is the cause of a selective loss of pheomelanin, the so-called Chinchilla trait. The white phenotype in tigers had been attributed to this Chinchilla mutation in tyrosinase, and some publications prior to the 1980s refer to it as an albino gene for this reason.[citation needed] However, genomic analysis has demonstrated instead that a mutation in the SLC45A2 gene is responsible. The resultant single amino acid substitution in this transport protein, by a mechanism yet to be determined, causes the elimination of pheomelanin expression seen in the white tiger. This is a recessive trait, meaning that it is only seen in individuals that are homozygous for this mutation. Inbreeding promotes recessive traits and has been used as a strategy to produce white tigers in captivity.

Dewa Athena

Dewa Athena is a big sports event held at my school, SMA 3. Dewa Athena is held once a year since few years ago. This year, Dewa Athena was held at February. The event starts from 06.45 AM to 15:00 PM. There are many sports competition at Dewa Athena, some of them are football, basketball, and tug of war. Before the competitions were performed. The Head committe of Dewa Athena gave some words that will motivate the participants to give their fullest to this event. After some words from the head committe, we performed color run. We ran around our school and when we were at finish point. some committes will spray colorful paint to our clothes, that is color run. After color run we took a break for a while and we watched some competitions such as football, basketball, and tug of war. Because there are many round for football. The football competition was held for more than 1 day, for me, i only participated at color run and tug of war.

Natural Phenomenon [Supernova]

Supernovae are exploding stars. They represent the very final stages of evolution for some stars. Supernovae, as celestial events, are huge releases of tremendous energy, as the star ceases to exist, with about 1020 times as much energy produced in the supernova explosion as our Sun releases every second. Our Sun, fortunately, will not end its life as a supernova.

Currently, supernovae are only seen in galaxies other than the Milky Way. We know that supernovae have occurred in our Galaxy in the past, since both Tycho Brahe and his protege, Johannes Kepler, discovered bright supernovae occurring in the Milky Way in 1572 and 1604, respectively.

And, the Chinese, and others, have records of a "guest star" occurring in 1054 in the present constellation Taurus. Today, we see remnants of all three supernovae, which appear as expanding clouds of gas, where each was originally discovered. However, no supernova has been seen in our Galaxy since Kepler's.

Supernovae, when they are discovered, are designated by the year in which they are discovered, and the order in which they are discovered during that year, by using members of the alphabet. For instance, the fourth supernova discovered this last year was named SN 1998D, which occurred in the galaxy NGC 5440.

The brightest supernova since Kepler's supernova was discovered on February 23, 1987, in the nearby galaxy, the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC). This supernova was easily seen with the naked eye throughout 1987 in the Southern Hemisphere. This supernova was named SN 1987A. This supernova is still being observed by a number of telescopes, particularly, the Hubble Space Telescope. Another bright recent supernova, observable from the Northern Hemisphere, was SN 1993J in the galaxy Messier 81 (M81).

As of 1998 January 1, 1270 supernovae have been discovered since supernovae first really began to be catalogued in 1885, when a supernova went off in the nearby Andromeda galaxy.

Advertisement

At this post I want to explain my advertisement picture that I drew at my English class this afternoon. We’ve been given a task by our teacher to draw an advertisement, whether the advertisement is about food, clothes, or motivating. I took the motivating one, Here is my drawing, sorry if it’s so simple.

In my drawing, I drew a big clock that have “start” word on the smaller clockwise at 3 o’clock. And I wrote “You have 15 hours to spend! Value your time!” and also I wrote many things and symbols that related to the activities that we often spend at out free time. The moral value that I want to tell from my drawing is, we as a student spend more than a quarter of our day to study at school, and if we have extracurricular activities or course after school, we will have half of our day used, and we will spend a quarter/half of our day again to study at school tomorrow. So we must spend our time that we still have to do activities that will make us comfortable, so tomorrow we will be ready for school again, with no regret for not doing something that you want at your free time yesterday. That’s all what I can explain and thank you.

My First Semester's Holiday

At this post I want to tell you about All of my activities that I did at Last weekend that starts from the middle of December to the beginning of January. I hope I don’t have many grammar mistakes from this post.

My school’s holiday started from Wednesday, 24^th December 2014, but some of them had fewer days for holiday and some of them had enjoyed their holiday one week or few days earlier from the original time. I’m one of the people who had enjoyed the holiday 1 week earlier, that’s because I had all of my scores above the average, so I didn’t take any remedials  and freed from school earlier. The point is I had 3 weeks of holiday. I made my activity schedules so I would have activities to do every time.

At the first week, I gathered with my friends to make a game project for our extracurricular activities. My friends who made a game project with me are Faris from X-2 and Ariel from my class, X-4. I was in charged of making the Story and the Background music, Faris was in charged of Script Editing, and Ariel was in charged of making the background and the characters. This project was already worked for months ago but we still can’t finish it until now, but the progress is already 90% .

At the second week. One of my old friends treated me foods and games at Paris van Java. He treated me because that’s his way for celebrating his birthday, that means I joined his birthday party. I went to Paris van Java at noon with my friends being invited too. There, I ate a lot because I hadn’t had breakfast at the morning. After that I talked a lot with my friends about our daily lives at schools. Done with the talking, Me and my friends played many arcade games at GameMaster. Of course, we still being treated by my friend. 

At this second week too I started to be active at Karate. I hadn’t been active for 1 month because I’m too busy with my school’s business. The Karate practice was so tough because I didn’t participate for 1 month. But because of that I lose my weight a bit and had my techniques back.

At the last week of my holiday. I just stayed at home and played computer games as long as I can. Well, I’m a gamers so that activity is necessary to maintain my title as a gamers. At this week I usually slept late, about 2-4 hours only. Well, that’s all about my holiday and I fell satisfied with my holiday.
