ARTHUR GOES TO CAMP

Hi! It’s been too long that I was not writing anything here since my last post two months ago, and now I am back! 
Well, it’s story time! :D 
Some weeks ago, my teacher gave me an assignment to make a storybook. I’ve made it with a lot of creations of 3D pop up, but I am sorry I can not show you the pictures of the book because I have already submitted it to my teacher (maybe later I will post it ‘-‘v).

By the way, I am sure all of you have your own favorite fairy tale. My favorite one is rapunzel, how is yours? Is it “Cinderella”? “Snow white”? or “Beauty and “The Beast”?




Ciderella ?



 
Snow White ?
Beauty and The Beast ?
Perhaps you like to read a fable such as “The Tortoise and The Ducks” or “The Horse and The Wolf”? I have my own fable. It’s about “Arthur”.

This is Arthur. Say Hi to Arthur! :)




This is the story, enjoy reading :)

ARTHUR GOES TO CAMP

            Once upon a time, there lived an intrepid cute rabbit named Arthur. Arthur was an orphan. He lived with his grandma and his little sister, Kuggy, in a hut.
                One day, Kuggy got a high fever. Grandma had already given her medicine, but her body temperature was still high. Arthur and grandma felt pity to see Kuggy, who used to be cheerful and attractive, felt asleep in bed with a limp. Various kinds of medicine had been given, but Kuggy wasn’t recovered. Arthur and grandma were confused about what they should do to help Kuggy get well as soon as possible.
                Grandma suddenly remembered, there was a miraculous cure that could cure all kinds of disease. This medicine is made from zuazua flower which is located in the Gorgorus forest. This forest is located 5 kilometers from their hut.
                Being compassionated with his little sister, Arthur asked permission to Grandma to go to the Gorgorus forest to find the the zuazua flower.
                "How if you can’t find the zuazua flower until the sky turns dark?" asked grandma.
                "I will stay in the forest, Grandma. I will prepare all the equipments tonight. I will ask my friend, Tino, to accompany me."
                Next morning, Arthur and Tino went to the Gorgorus forest. After walking around 2 hours, they finally arrived at the forest. They began to look for the zuazua flowers. Grandma said that the zuazua flowers had a golden color and grew in places that are not exposed to sunlight. Arthur and Tino looked at all the places, even into the cave. But they still had not found it. They asked Mr. Deer, Mr. Turtle, sparrows, but no one knew where the zuazua flowers were.
                The sun was almost drowned. Arthur and Tino finally decided to stay in the forest. Arthur set up a tent while Tino was gathering firewood to make a bonfire. Then they burned marshmallows over a bonfire. "Hmm, yummy" said Arthur. They sing together to relieve fatigue while waiting for marshmallows well-cooked. That was the first camp activity for Arthur. Arthur was very happy tonight because he could figure out what it's like to sleep in the middle of the the forest accompanied by melodious singing owls. But he was also sad because the medicine to treat Kuggy still hasn’t found yet. He did not want his decision going to camp ended in vain.
                "We have to find a zuazua flowers tomorrow, now let's sleep. Goodnight Tino" said Arthur to Tino.
                 Next morning, they tided up their belongings and moved on looking for the zuazua flower.
                "Hey, Arthur! Look, there is a river. Let's go there. I'm thirsty "Tino said.
                "Okay, let's go there"
                On the riverbank, Arthur saw a glowing behind the buckeye tree. Then he went to light it and shout for joy.
                "WOW! Look at that, Tino! I found the the zuazua flowers! "Arthur said happily.
                "Wow! You are right. This is the flower. Let’s go back to the hut”
                They returned to the hut. Grandma welcomed them with joy. Then swiftly grandma made the medicine from the zuazua flowers and gave it to Kuggy . After taking the medicine, Kuggy suddenly got healthy. Her body temperature decreased, and her face was not pale anymore. They were all happy to see Kuggy smile again.
**the end**

 “They were all happy to see Kuggy smile again”, as people say, everything will be happy in the end, if it’s not happy it’s not the end. Yey, finish :D

In addition, I want to share with you all about how to make an interesting storybook that will attract the reader. One trick that you can use is by decorating your book with colorful and eye-catching design. Perhaps you can make 3D pop up like what I used in my book. If you want to try how to make some pop up, check this out:


These are the pictures of pop up



Happy trying :D thanks for reading this :) bye.

CRISS-CROSS!


There are perhaps many secrets in the world that are just awaiting serendipity.  Maybe we will find some hidden historical places in our town, or somewhere hidden treasure around our domicile. But, where are they? What happened to them?

I started my escapade to find some secret treasures around my dormitory. Yep, I am a pupil in a senior high school boarding. This boarding school located in the outskirts Malang City where you will find some international school and many potential places, called Tlogowaru. This region is actually located far away with the glory of the central city. But when you roam it further, you will see the beautiful sceneries of Tlogowaru and some grandiose buildings there.

Okay, let’s back to my escapade -->

I started my escapade here

I went along that street.  Take sight to find a unique hidden place.  It was an awesome sight to behold, but what I got is just a carpet of rice field. Then I continued my journey, walked along the street until I met with this T-intersection.

Firstly, I want to go on that way,

but something inside my self instigate me to walk on the other way. Hoho (^o^)”

That is it.

I walked along that pathway. It is just an asphalt pavement, seems like a blind alley (but it is not) and this is the scenery along that street -->

-rice field-
And this…

Hey guys. Can you see it? There is a mosque in the middle of field!


Wow. I do not think that I will find it there. An orange mosque which is looks so luxurious around the trees. Let’s go there..



I was impressed when I saw this mosque. This mosque is actually not too big, but the design of this building makes it so catchy. The small park in front of it makes it more beautiful.
This is the picture,


The name of this mosque is Syekh Abdul Aziz Bin Baz. The name was taken from the one who finance the construction of this mosque. Syekh Abdul Aziz Bin Baz is a benefactor from Saudi Arabia who was rendered his riches to build some mosque in Indonesia and Tlogowaru was chosen to be one of the places he would build the mosque in.


Syekh Abdul Aziz Bin Baz mosque has two entrances. The first is for man, and the second for woman. This mosque has complete facilities. The place for taking ‘wudhu’ was great, quiet big, and clean. Moreover, it has been distinguished, which one for men, which one for women. In addition, there is also a parking space reserved for visitors who come using a bike, motorcycle, or maybe a car.
These are the pictures -->


Women's entrance


Women's place for wudhu


parking area


Men's place for wudhu

In front of this mosque, there is a white building. Mr. Syaiful, the one I interviewed, said to me that this building will be used as an orphanage. This is the building -->


Okay, that’s all about Syekh Abdul Aziz Bin Baz mosque. Are you are interested in this place? Visit it! You will see the beauty of a luxurious mosque amid the awesome scenery of the rice fields.

WHO I THINK I AM

WHO I THINK I AM


Hey! How’s life? This is my first post and you will know me further by reading this article. Have a nice read  J


Here I am. I am 15 years old. I am a senior high school student, and now I am standing on eleven grades. Don’t you know who am I? Well, I will tell you more about myself. Check this out!

Before I tell you about myself, I will tell you about something related to me. Camera!

Ha! This picture was actually taken when I was 10th grades.

Why I choose the camera? I am not too expert in photography, or being addicted with it. However, something beyond this thing, camera, reflect something that is similar with my characters. We used the camera to capture a moment that we never know whether it will come to us again or not. A good snapshot keeps a moment from running away like what my mind always does. Yes, my mind is like a camera that is constantly taking pictures of every single moment that comes to me. I do not know why. I just mad doing activities such as collecting anything that can make me remember about something, someone, or some moments. It can be a letter from someone, gifts from my friends, my friend’s voice record, photos, and others. After capturing some pictures using a camera, we can look the picture again someday. Just like my hobby, capturing anything as much as possible, so I can remember every little thing that I have ever felt.
By the way, talking about camera, I want to share a quote. Della, my besties, taught me about it,

-The relation between camera and life- 

 

Next, is about EYEGLASSES! J

*LoL

Who use eyeglasses? You? Your friends? Your mom? Your dad? Or someone else? What is the purpose of using eyeglasses? Being unable to see images clearly or sharply sometimes forced us to use eyeglasses. It is a device, which corrects refractive errors in vision. It helps in regaining one's vision. I choose this thing as the object that can describe me further because in reality, just like the eyeglasses, I can’t stop myself to help others. I mean, live in this dormitory seems like I have forced to be a “yes girl”. If someone asks me to do something to help them such as borrowing my stuffs (modem, laptop, sandals, shoes, etc.), I can’t repel it (This is actually my worst habit u_u). I cannot say ‘no’ when someone comes to me and ask for a help. I just want to be useful person and can help others to deal with their problem. Everything’s useful, then why glasses become my choice? As I said before, eyeglasses help us to images clearly or sharply. Just like what I always do to the person, I have never met before. I will never judge someone or something before I know them ‘clearly’ and ‘sharply’. However, because everyone is human social, so we need to interact with others. We cannot life if we just stand alone and be antipathies of something. According to me, helping others who need our help is another beautiful color of love in life. :o When I saw someone on the problem, my heart whispers me to help his or her. Haha. Yet, I am happy to help others because help other means we care with people around us, and others will take care of us back. Seek first to understand, than to be understood. Ha! :D
 




[Freak face mode: ON -_-"]
-Eyeglasses help us to images clearly or sharply-


The last but not the least,
-Extension plug-


I was trying so hard to find the name of this item. Some of friends taught me it is a roll cable, but actually, roll cable is just a cable without the stop contact. This is the picture.



Some friends said to me “It is extension cable”, but when I am going to prove whether it is correct or not by googling, what I got is this,

*this is extension cable
Then, I asked to my roommate, but nobody knows. I asked to my senior in my block, but still no one knows. Finally, after roam in google, I got the name. –extension plug-  -_-“

This!
This thing is able to share the electricity for not only one device, but also it used to distribute the electricity for two or more devices. I am not an introvert girl anymore since I was in this senior high. I love sharing anything to others, experiences, knowledge and happiness. This kind of stop contact helps peoples to recharge their device such as laptop or hand phone. Just like me. Helping others is a kind of affection for me. However, if peoples use this stop contact arbitrarily, this device may be exploded. If peoples forced me to help them without think about me more, I may be stress out and break loss.


Well, that’s all.  See you in the next posting. Bye! :D
