You cannot get to the top by sitting on your bottom

2009-04-05T23:54:00.000-07:00

There is a very naughty boy but he is very smart who lives with his grandmother. His name is Porter, He is still in high school, senior year. He never go to class, never do his home works or assignments, always make troubles at schools well, he's pretty much "the troublemaker" in his school. He never do anything at school because he thinks that he smarts well, he is smarts his IQ test result was brilliant. He always tease the girls as well.

When the final exam coming, all his friends is studying except for him. He just go to clubs, partying and drinking. The next day is the final exam, he came late to the class. When he's trying to do the test his brain block out. He can't think of anything, he's trying to think be he can't. He fills out the answer with his closed eyes since he still thinks that he's smart.

The final exams result come out. He didn't pass any of his classes. He can't graduate this year that means he has to repeat one more year. So, that you can say as "You cannot get to the top by sitting on your bottom".

Idioms of my birthday story

2009-03-23T00:42:00.000-07:00

Once there was a girl named Jingga and she couldn't wait until her seventeenth birthday party. The party was in two days, and she was like a kid in a candy store. She told her mom that she wanted a new pretty penny dress, a car, and a kitten which she would name Havoc, She missed for the presents, the joy, and the best part, the ice cream cake. Her birthday was going to be held at the cafe, and 50 of her friends were going to attend.

The night before her party when it was time to hit the hay, she didn't get any sleep (she only got seven hours of it ). In the morning her mom made her blueberry pancakes that were served with blueberry syrup. When she ate her pancakes she got dressed in her nicest clothes (a pink tank top and a purple lace skirt), then she hurried down stairs to fetch her purple jacket. Then she went to the cafe to celebrate her birthday party there.

The idioms mean:
1. Like a kid in a candy store means to be very happy and excited about the things around you, and often to react to them in a way which is silly and not controlled or you can call it whimper.

2. Pretty penny means expensive

3. Hit the hay means go to bed

Batu Feringghi

2009-03-16T00:46:00.000-07:00

Batu Feringghi is located in Penang. After we went to Genting Highland, we went straight to Batu Feringghi. Before we got to the hotel we had lunch, it was delicious :). After lunch we went to the hotel, changed our clothes then went to the beach to play some games. The games was really fun! my team won, yay! after the beach game, we had pool game. I didn't go to the pool because i didn't bing anymore clothes so, i was just taking pictures with my friends while waiting for the other play in the pool. We went to our room to took a shower then had dinner in the restaurant. It took like almost an hour to get to the restaurant because there were accident but finally we found the restaurant. The food was delicious! i love it very much.

The next day, we went to army camp to see our Vice Chancellor there. The army camp was alright, didn't really like it there but i enjoyed taking pictures with my friends. After that we went straight back to Perlis.

I have been to Penang with my friends before but we didn't go to Batu Feringghi, we just went to the queensbay mall. Batu Ferringhi was beautiful, it reminds me with Kuta in Bali because its quite similar to Kuta Beach. The place was so romantic, the beach was nice with the water sports like jet ski, banana boat, para sailing, snorkelling, and scuba diving. I have tried para sailing in Bali before and it was awesome. I would like to try para sailing again and diving but in Batu Feringghi when i get a chance to go there again.

Trip to Genting Highland

2009-03-11T03:18:00.000-07:00

I have been to Genting Highland with my family before. It was when i was in middle school, about 6 years ago. I was really excited when i heard that we (International Student) were going to Genting Highland & Batu Feringghi because Genting Highland is one of my favorite places in Malaysia and i love cold weather as well.

I just got back from KL and i had to go again to Genting Highland and Batu Feringghi with international students from UNIMAP. It was a really long journey, it took about 6 to 7 hours if I'm not mistaken to get to Genting Highland from Perlis. I moslty slept on the bus because i was still a little bit tired. When i woke up, i thought i was already at Genting but it was at the resting place. I cleaned up myself and got my breakfast there then went staright to Genting. When we get there i thought we were going to go up to Genting by Cable Car. I was kinda disapointed. Anyway, we got up there by bus. I couldn't wait to go to the theme parks, felt like i just want to run away to the theme parks as we got there. We played at the theme parks then had lunch, the lunch wasnt that good after lunch was free time.

Genting Highland have 2 theme parks, they are outside theme park and inside theme park. I prefer outside theme park because when i went there with my family i didn't get a chance to try the outside theme park but i also like the inside theme park. Genting Highland is just amazed me, the weather, the entertainment, the food, everything! I would like to go there again for honeymoon when i get married ;)

Jason Mraz concert

2009-03-11T00:35:00.000-07:00

I didn't go to the snack farm, me and my friends went to KL to watched Jason Mraz concert. The concert was held on Stadium Negara. We took bus to KL, we left at night so, that we arrived there in the morning but we got to KL really early in the morning, the shops were still closed but lucky we found a hotel at Bukit Bintang that sill open. We took a rest there, took a shower, then we went out to have lunch. After that, we looked around Bukit Bintang then went to the hotel to get ready for the concert. The concert was at 8pm but we came around 7pm. It was really crowded, i met a couple of my friends from Jakarta there. I really enjoyed the concert even though i only could see Jason Mraz in a very tiny size because i just bought the free seating ticket, didn't want to spend more money for that. After the concert we called our friends to meet up, we waited at the coffee shop. When they came, we decided to go karaoke. We sang along together, it was really fun!

MUSIC = ME

2009-03-01T23:30:00.000-08:00

I like music very much, it can help cheer you up, pump you up, bring back memories and make you feel like your in that exact time again from when you heard that certain song. I listen to everything from big beat to black metal to post-punk to industrial to break core to punk to noise.

My favorite music instrument is guitar. I know how to play guitar but I'm not very good at it, i just know the basic. I also can play piano but I'm not very good at it either. I've been playing piano since 2006 and I've been learning how to play guitar for just 3 months.

I have performed 3 times when i used to live in Houston. The first one was on Eid ul-Fitr 2007, i sang some religious songs with my friends at consulate general's house. The second and third were on Indonesia Independence Day 2007 and 2008 at The Consulate General of the Republic of Indonesia in Houston, Texas.

Thing that i bought last week

2009-02-22T22:35:00.000-08:00

Jason Mraz concert is coming up soon in Kuala Lumpur. Me and my friends are planning to wacth his concert in KL. We wanted to buy the ticket but we didn't know how. We could by the ticket online but not one of us have a visa card. We were searching on the Internet and we found that theres a place in Penang that sells Jason Mraz ticket so, last week we went to penang to get the ticket at tower records, gurney plaza.

We went to Penang by car. We almost get lost because we haven't been there before (thanked god we didn't). When we got to the gurney plaza, we got confused "where is tower records?" the place was really huge and finally after we looked at the directory mall we found the store.

If you one of Jason Mraz fans, i would love to recommend it to you. Its cheap, its only RM 68 (free seating). Hurry!! go get the ticket before it sold out. The concert will be held on the 4Th of march in Stadium Negara Kuala Lumpur.

valentines day in L A N G K A W I island with good friends of mine

2009-02-15T22:42:00.000-08:00

Me and my friends have been living in Perlis, Malaysia for 2 weeks. Perlis is a quite and small city. We knew that the valentines day is coming up so, we were planning to go to Penang at first but then we changed our mind and decided to go to Langkawi Island because its much closer from Perlis. We were looking for information and asking around about Langkawi.

We arrived in Langkawi at 10 am after that we rented a car from the jetty and went straight to Cenang beach and found a hotel to stay. After we checked in, we went out to eat lunch, took some pictures and then we went back to the hotel to take some rests and go to the beach in the evening.
At the beach, we took a lot of pictures. When we were about to go swimming there is a guy came to us said that theres a "reggae night" tonight at the beach, they wanted us to see his band performance. We went swimming and we were really having fun at the beach. After that we found a dead jelly fish there and we were wondering if the jelly fish still alive or already dead. when we were looking at it, there was an old guy came and scared us so, we jumped, lol. We went back to the hotel, took a shower and were getting ready for the reggae night since we didn't have anything to do on valentines day night so, we decided to go there (thanked god that guy came to us, lol).
We went to ate dinner and then went to the lounge. It was really crowded at the lounge, there were so many couples sat on the sand and we were so jealous because we don't have partners. When we were looking a place to sit, we met again with the guy who told us to come to the lounge. We were sitting there for about 6 hours and we met the rest of the band.
In the morning, we went to see cable car and it was really awesome, its the highest cable car i have ever seen in my life. In the afternoon we went back to Perlis.

It was really fun went to Langkawi on valentines day night with good friends of mine. I definitely want to do that again. We really enjoyed ourselves in Langkawi especially when we went to the reggae night, it was really awesome!!!

Life in Jakarta

2009-02-08T22:46:00.000-08:00

Jakarta is the capital town of Indonesia, located in java island . Jakarta is being of the capital of the world largest Islamic country, but at the same time is nightlife also one of the most popular in the Asia Pasific.

You can find or do ANYTHING in Jakarta. Jakarta always has traffic jam everywhere and anytime you go because it is big, crowded and busy city in Indonesia, just like New York City and of course we have the major problem with the polution. We have a lot of entertainment places to go, most of the young people go to malls, cafes and nightclubs on the weekend. Usually the nightclubs closed at 3 am but there are some that open 24 hours but the malls closed at 10 pm. Jakarta is the city that never sleep.

We have two differents areas, there are the glamorous area and the poor area. The glamorous areas are in Thamrin (downtown) where the people go to work and some real estates such as Pondok indah, Menteng, and Kemang. The poor area, the poor people usually live near the railway, river, and under the bridge.

I love Jakarta very much, i grew up there and i found that Jakarta is a good place to hang out with friends because it has a lot of entertainment places so, if you're felling blue you can just call your friend and go out.
