Takagi Fujimaru and Kaju Otoya

Bloody Monday

It is a good oriented Japan action film that is very recommended to be watched. It is all about action, how something can be happened because of reasons, it is all about sacrifice,trust,struggle, love, friendship, sincerity, integrity, dilemma, feeling, great ability,logical math, and much more surprises that will make us always keep watching.

It is completely impressing Japan film. The one who gives the most precious impression is Takagi Fujuimaru's friendship. Fujimaru is a second grade high school students who has a great ability as a super hacker. Because of his ability, he is commissioned by Public Security Investigation Bureau to find out the truth of an incident happened in far-distant city of Tokyo.

The one who notice about it is Koju Otoya. He is one of Fujimaru's best friends. Although Fujimaru keeps all secret and he makes something looks like alright. But Otoya knows that Fujimaru is in danger area and otoya always comes to give hands to save Fujimaru. Both of them always keep protecting.

Fujimaru and Otoya,. that friendship is supposed to do, isn't it! Aaaah, I really impressed with their friendship.

^"I will never leave Fujimaru, I will not let him fight alone" Said Otoya when some friends tend to make a distance with Fujimaru to save their own life.

They do not want one of them involved to a danger area. Both of Fujimaru and Otoya prefer to overcome the problem alone. Fujimaru does not want to bring Otoya into danger area, So do Otoya. However, at the end,.. they know that togetherness will make them stronger. Then, they promise to always keep gathering.

^'Heh, don't touch him" said Fujimaru When someone point out a gun to Otoya's face. Fujimaru is spontaneously protect Otoya from terrorist.

^"You don't believe in me, do you!" said Otoya. It hurts Otoya heart when Otoya is accused as a spy of terrorist but Fujimaru seems doubt to him. However, Fujimaru tries to not listen to what other people say, When everyone feels doubt to Otoya, Fujimaru belives in Otoya. That's friendship is supposed to do, right!

^Fujimaru with his ability try to stop nuclear bomb that is done by terrorist. All Public Security forbid Fujimaru to do it alone, he should wait until public security comes. Otherwise there is no time left. Fujimaru tries to ignore what they says, except Otoya.

Otoya begs Fujimaru to not do it alone. Otoya is the one who worries alot about Fujimaru's safety. Fujimaru said "please believe in me, I'll make sure that I will not die".

When, it seems that there is no hope, Otoya stiil believe that Fujiamru will come back, Otoya belive in Fujimaru that Fujimaru will hold his promise.
Finally,

There is such kind oh happiness for Otoya which is find out Fujimaru's alright. Both of them always keep protecting, praying, giving hope, trusting, and never leaving although no one tend to stay. That friendship's supposed to do, right!

Skripshit-Skripsweet

Bang Alitt dibukunya Skripshit ini mengajarkanku arti kebahagian. Bagaimana menyikapi pilihan, menghargai diri sendiri, membahagiakan diri, persahabatan, perjuangan, penghormatan, menghormati sebuah keputusan (beserta konsekuensinya tentunya, dan selalu berbaik sangka kepada Allah dan mensyukuri hidup.

Tapi... Buku ini sangat berbahaya untuk dibaca didepan umum!!! Nggak bakal bisa diem deh, sampai sakit ini pipi karena keseringan ketawa. Memang Buku ini sangat bisa menghibur bagi yang sedang mengGalau.

"Apa sih Yan, seru amat ketawanya?" kata salah satu temanku "Lucu tau Kis, nih kalau nggak percaya, coba deh kamu baca beberapa halaman saja.

Beberapa detik membaca, nggak ada reaksi. Dan yang tadinya aku nggak galau, kini pun menggalau. "Jangan-jangan cuman aku aja yang nganggapnya lucu. Eh nggak lama dari itu, dia ketawa, dan itu awal dari semuanya, ketawa dan terus sering ketawa.

Hahahhahaha.. 'iya ya,. seru..seru, gokil" katanya. Dan dia pun ngantri pengen minjem buku, dan setelah dia, zahra, ayu, Nice, Pepeng, Supri, dan Yudis pun ikut dalam daftar nama orang yang ngantri mau pinjem buku Skripshit.

Review; -Bukunya sangat menghibur, Bang alitt bisa membuat pembaca ketawa, namun sisi meaningfulnya tetep kerasa. Alur ceritanya jelas, dan ceritanya mahasiswa banget dah pokoknya.

^Pesan buat teman-teman, dan juga aku nih yang sekarang lagi sibuk membuat instrumen skripsi. Back up semua file skripsi ke email, USB, DVD, komputer temen atau kemanakah itu. Because who knows what will happen next, right?! Nah dibuku skripshit ini ni diceritakan bagaimana 'tragisnya' nasip skripsi bang Alitt waktu itu.

Nah ada satu kalimat handalannya Bang Alit tuh kalau mau ngeles, "Dari pada lulus tetap waktu, lebih baik lulus diwaktu yang tepat, right" gkgkgkk.,

Seperti kata bang Alit, Jika kita dihadapkan oleh dua pilihan yang sama-sama sulit untuk dipilih. Maka kita harus membuat pilihan ketiga yang bisa kita lakukan.Pilihan yang membuat kita bagahia, dan bukan pilihan yang salah. Nah, aku jadi kepikiran jawaban dari 'ngelesnya' bang Alit nih.. "Bagaimana jika lulus tepat waktu adalah waktu yang tepat?! Skripsi --> SkripShit --> SkripSweet.
Well, semester ini aku memilih untuk menyelesaikan skripsiku. Skripsi oh dirimu ya..

For me: There are some words that should be underlined from that book,
^Break the rules and follow your heart -@poconggg-
^There is no something happens without a reason
'Hidup ini bagai skripsi..banyak bab dan revisi yang harus dilewati. Tapi akan selalu berakhir indah...bagi mereka yang pantang menyerah" ^^

It's Time to STOP Discrimination

 We are different but it does not meant we have to be distinguished.

I think you have known about discrimination.

Based on dictionary, Discrimination is a term used often in human rights law to distinguish the differential treatment of an individual because of a prohibited ground.

Why does discrimination still happen? Have you been discriminated by someone or community?

A simple example that I think still happen in my surrounding is about friendship. Many people still distinguish friend. In a friendship, they still give different treatment to someone who has different background, religion, color, gender or culture.  Is it right way? may we can reflect it and it is begun from every individual's awareness. It's time to STOP discrimination

 I think we have to watch the video below. this video will open our eyes to tell us that nothing reason to do discrimination anymore.

Six Thinking Hats

 Realize or not, we often think or look at something from one of sides. for instance, we get the big problem in our life. we often think negatively, or just let it flow without try to find out the solution, or we blame someone without reflect on ourselves. Otherwise, when we look at something, we should think from all sides. we should use six thinking hats b y Dr. Edward de Bono. 

what are six thinking hats? let's learn together..:-)

 The Red Hat

Intuitive: look at something based on their feeling in heart. Someone who thinks something with the read hat they will analyze it by listening to their heart.

 

 The White Hat

Informative:  Someone who thinks something with the white hat they will analyze it by looking for the data about that. They will collect the valid sources or information first before they judge something.

The Yellow Hat

Constructive: Someone who thinks something with the yellow hat they will analyze it by thinking positively. They will look at something, such as disaster from the positive sides. The yellow hat also called the sunshine hat because it always builds the positives point of view.

  

 

The Black Hat

Cautious: the opposite of yellow hat. This is caution hat.  Someone who thinks something with the black hat they will analyze it by thinking negatively.  They always look at something from bad sides, such as, think too much about the risk and disadvantage. However, this hat is good in particular times.

The Green Hat

Creative:  Someone who thinks something with the green hat they will analyze it by thinking creatively. They usually give the best idea and new solution that are not thought by other people. They do not stick with one thing. They can grow and development an idea.

The Blue Hat

Reflective:  Someone who thinks something with the blue hat they will analyze it by doing reflection. Such as,  how can I do it better?
What mistakes did I make?
What did I learn from this? 

This hat also organizes all the others hat to think about something.

Now, we have known about six thinking hat. may we can apply them in our thinking. So, when we look at something we will use all the thinking hats. :-)

Technology

http://pijarlentera.wordpress.com

 What is your views about those pictures?
Do you realize about the technologies’ development?

Do you remember when we will send massages to keep in touch with our   families, or friends?

  
Are you familiar with them?
They are very popular in this era, aren’t they!
How about some years later?
Are they still popular, or maybe there will be some new technologies?

Technologies develop very fast, we are as “digital native” have to know and utilize them as well as possible. According to Wikipedia A digital native is a person who was born after the general implementation of digital technology. As a result, they have familiarized with digital technology such as computers, the Internet, mobile phones and MP3s over their whole lives. How about “digital immigrant”. A digital immigrant is an individual who was born before the existence of digital technology and adopted it to some extent later. However they have to aware with technologies.
So, which one are you in?
I am a teacher candidate and I will teach my students in 4 years later. I’m a digital native and I have to explore more about using technologies in teaching and learning. Wow how about my students in the future? I believe that technologies will be more advance. It is possible that my students are more expect to use technologies than me. Always keep learning then. ^

Technology-School Experience

TLL_Mid Term Task

By: Yani     

           As an assistance teacher in SMAN43 Jakarta for two weeks. I have found some interesting lessons that can be my reflection as a young generation of teacher.  First, let me tell about the background of school and how technology is used to enhance the students learning.    

           SMAN 43 Jakarta has 681 students and 18 classes. It consists of IPA and IPS students. In that school provides some technologies, such as computers in language laboratory and LCD. There are 21 computers in the language laboratory that are used to enhance the students learning in English and German classes. The school just has about seven LCDs that are saved in teacher room. Because of the limited of LCD, for the teacher who wants to use it in their teaching in the classroom, they have to order it before and use their own laptop. If they do not have laptop, they can borrow it with the other teacher who has. In addition, there is nothing screen for LCD in there, so the students just see the materials in the laptop from the wall.

            . Here, I was focus in XI IPS classes because my master teacher just teaches in those classes. Every class has 36 up to 40 students. Based on my observation and interview, my master teacher did not use the technology that have provided by school. She is a “digital immigrant” who is not familiar with technology. She was born on 1956 and she had begun to teach since 1984.

Can you imagine how old she is! Based on my interview, she knew that it was a mistake that she did not use technology; however she said that she was too old to learn about technology. So, I could not evaluate how effective technology in the classroom because my master teacher did not use it. However, on general, the technology in that school is not really effective because the limited of number. Every class is not provided computers and LCD as well.

If I had to be a teacher in those classes, I will capitalize the technology in there to enhance the students learning. For example, in the first week the students studied about the genre of texts. If I had to teach in those classes with the same lesson and condition, I will give the explanation about genre of text by using power point. Then, I will also play the music to escort them when they do activities in their groups. The purpose is to create an interesting air in the classroom.

Then, in the second week, the students studied about advising and warning expression. If I had to teach in the same lesson, what I want to do to capitalize the technology is I will bring the students to language laboratory. I will show the video about advising and warning expression. So, as a visual, they can see the situation and the expression of native speaker by looking the picture/video. In addition, they can practice the best pronunciation, intonation about advising and warning expression.

What I have learn based on my observation, evaluation and capitalization about using technology in classroom is as a generation of a teacher I have to update with technology to enhance the students learning to face 21st century challenges

Not single, but Multiple intelligences

LTM Class

Multiple Intelligences

Generally, many people think that the intelligent person is someone who has high intelligence Quotient (IQ). Such as in our reality, many people are more appreciate with student who get the highest score in exam rather than other students. They think that only person who has high IQ can be considered as intelligent people. However, we should not look at intelligence from one point of view. Intelligence person is not only someone who has high IQ or just good at mathematics or verbal linguistics. Because of that, there is a theory that believes that everyone can be considered as intelligent people because we have multiple intelligences in ourselves.

The theory of multiple intelligences was proposed by Howard Gardner in 1983 to analyze and describe the concept of intelligence. The theory also addresses the question whether traditional IQ tests are truly scientific. Based on Howard Gardner there are eight of multiple intelligences. They are verbal linguistic, logical mathematic, interpersonal, intrapersonal, spatial, naturalist, musical, and bodily kinesthetic. He believes that we have multiple intelligences in ourselves but depend on how we explore them. We have to know and identify which one our multiple intelligences profiles. So, we can more deepen and sharp our multiple intelligences and that can be more than one of intelligences.

School is one of the best places to explore our intelligences. So teacher has an important role to build or kill the students’ intelligences. To build the students’ intelligences teachers have to use variety activities that cover of multiple intelligences in their teaching. For instance, by doing collaboration in group, discussing, watching video, listening to the music, practical in the real situation. As the result, not only teaching the theory but giving students chances to share their knowledge or opinion to each others and doing self reflection. Teaching is not only focus or assess students just from the students’ IQ.

Oh my Earth

Environmental Education

By: Yani

Jakarta, 20^th October 2010

For our reflection..:-C

Environmental Education is study about environment. In my personally It can make us more aware about the environments’ problems.

In my EE class. I was impressed with the videos that were showed to us. One of them is Video Clip of Katosbagaskara&Nugie’s song “jika Bumi bisa bicara”

 ..........Jika bumi bisa bicara                                                              

Kutahu ia akan bertanya
Sampai kapankah kau hanya terima
Tanpa pernah beri kembali
Kini saatnya untuk berbuat
Memberi apa yang dia butuhkan                                                      
Tanah air udara kan bersuka
Hidup harmoni tetap terjaga............

One of the issues that should be considered is Flood. 

I think Flood is the most popular disaster in some big cities, 

such as: Jakarta. 
Why?

Flood happens is not only caused by natural factors. How about these?

Thinking about the solution ^

Begin from our selves..As a proverb said that "Prevention is better than cure"

Lets' save our earth.

Persahabatan & Kebudayaan

Humanistic Studies
By:Yani
Jakarta, 19th October 2010

Persahabatan…

Satu ikatan merajut kebersamaan dalam perbedaan..

Identitas dan kebudayaan.

Latar belakang dan mungkin sejarah hidup yang berbeda

disatukan dibawah rasa cinta dan toleransi.

Membentuk kesempurnaan atas perbedaan,

bersama dalam suka berbagi air mata.

Memandang bukan dengan sebelah mata

karena kita hidup..

berpijak di bumi yang sama….

“yn”

Banyak hal yang saya dapat di kelas Humanistic Studies. belajar tentang multicultural on ourselves

“Identitas dan kebudayaan”

sebuah identitas terkecil yaitu “nama”. hadiah teristimewa dari orang tua untuk kita, yang didalamnya terdapat harapan, doa, dan arti yang bermakna. jasad mungkin bisa rapuh namun nama tak akan rapuh dalam ingatan.

Kebudayaan adalah hasil karya sekelompok masyarakat yang berawal dari kebiasaan yang didalamnya terdapat kepercayaan, norma dan kebutuhan yang diwariskan secara turun temurun.

Identitas dan kebudayaan itu beraneka ragam, menjadi sebuah ciri khas setiap orang atau kelompok masyarakat.

Berbeda memang? tapi saya yakin semua perbedaan itu mempunyai satu tujuan yaitu tentang kebaikan..

“hidup ini tak hanya sekedar bergantinya siang dan malam, banyak cabang-cabang kehidupan yang mengajari kita banyak hal.. begitupun sebuah pandangan.. kenapa hanya melihat seseorang dari satu sudut pandang..jika banyak arah lain yang harus kita lihat dari suatu identitas dan kebudayaan.
