dressing-up is my passion?


There are so many things that i am passionate for. But I'm passionate the most for automotive, especialy in tuning the car and dress it up so that it looks more attractive than it was before. This was becoming my hoby since 3 years ago. I started to like i when i saw some cool modified cars on the car magazines. I got more interested when i saw those kind of cars were passing by in front of my eyes. They were eye catching and I couldn't really take my eyes of those cars.

So i tried to start my hobby with an old Toyota Corolla. I changed the rims from stock rims sized 15" to something bigger like 18". I found that only changing the rims ain't enough. After did some research on internet and magazines, I got some designs for the bodykits. So i put my old car in the garage that specialized to make body works. Luckily my parents support my hobby. they said as long it is positive and I am not involving in illegal racing on street and not dealing with any drugs. By the way, I waited for months after I got my car like this :






I started became addicted to modify the car and one day I was asked by my friend to join something like car community. So I joined the community and since I was there, the idea to modify the car was getting wilder than ever. they gave so many ideas about automodifying and finally there was a Car Contest in our city, and so I and my car team want to participate in it. We came with 17 cars in that event. The contest was only for show car, it's not like racing or drifting , etc. It was just as a place for modify lovers to gather and show their rides.


Here, i have some pictures to share with you guys the atmosphere of the Autoshow. ;)






It was so much fun I could gather with my friends and the others car tuners from my city. Oh yeah in this contest, we also fought for trophies. and unexpectedly my car got two trophies which are : "the Best Sedan" and "The Best Body Work for Toyota Category". All together my car team got something like 25 trophies including "The Best Car Club" and "THE KING of the show". ;)





Guys, these things are what I passionate of; Automotive and solidarity in the car community. hope this could explain enough parts of my daily life. ;)

National Monument Tower


This is a tower that we call Monas, short form of Monumen Nasional (in Bahasa) means National Monument. this tower placed in Jakarta, our capital city of Indonesia. This tower is 137 metres tall and on top of it, there is a statue of blazing fire which made of 14.5 tons of bronze and coated with 35 kg of gold.

This tower represents the fight for Indonesia's independence, how they were struggling until they finally achieved the glory.
Visitors can go inside the monument. there is a museum inside the base of the monument. and people also can go up high to the top platform using elevator to see the view surrounding it and even the whole area of Jakarta. For us, this monument means a lot.

Oscar : Does it has sixth sense?

I really do not know what to say knowing that there is a cat like Oscar that has such ability like that. I mean, this is just amazing however he detects the impending doom. It could be useful yet scary if you have pet like him. it will be useful to have cat like Oscar when we have someone who is suffering from mortal sickness. there fore we can accompany the patient for the remaining time he or she has. But it is also scary for some people to know approximately when they are going to face their death.
Actually, I do not really believe some superstitios stuff. But I do believe that certain animals especially cat can detect some entities of supernatural things. But it alse can be explained using scientific way how Oscar can detect the death. Maybe he could smell some chemistry reactions that occured come out from the body when someone is dying. it said that animals have greater sense of smelling. Well, it is up to you guys how to react with this thing.

Wealth?

We all know that wealth really important for every people in this life. Because wealth, in the form of bank notes, coins, golds, diamonds or anything could control many things in this life. I mean, it really controls everything. Wealth could change someone from a weak person into someone powerful with the power of money. Because once he has a lot of money, he will recruit someone else which is stronger and smarter than him to cover his weakness. it is commonly happened until now.
Wealth not always bring happy stuffs for us but it also can be a poison when we are disable to manage it wisely, A person with a lot of money mostly like to spend his money for everything because he though that he could has everything including harmful things like drugs or weapons. But it also can bring positive things if we can use the money wisely on places that the money should be spent on. For example, for making a new company. by making a new company, it will open opportunity for jobless people around the company to work in the factory and they will be no more unemployed. Giving charity for the needy is also a good thing to do if we have a lot of money. There is no point to have expensive and delicious grubs from the restaurant if we still can see many people around us only have their meal once a day or not even once in a day. Things like this should be considered for the better usage of wealth. For me, wealth itself can play two roles : either as medicine, or as poison.

My Experience in Past English Class

Learning English is a must for everyone. Because as we all know that English Language is an international language. It really helps us to communicate with other people from around the world. That is why in almost all schools and universities there is always English subject as it very important. I started learn English years ago when I was 9 years old in my school back in Indonesia. The first day I learned English I was interested to it. I started to know what are some things called in English. It came from simple things like book, pen, pencil, car, etc. Until now I’m still learning English in University. What make difference is, it is more advance compared to the one I learned years ago. Luckily in my previous school I have already learned some important things in English like Idioms. I learned so many idioms in my previous school named Kolej Tuanku Ja’afar. There, the teacher teaches us in interesting ways so that we could understand and memorize better and easier. For example, he regularly brings us to the library and gives us some research projects on internet and we were asked to come up with a slide show in front of the class once we done with the project. There is also movie time at least once in two months so that we could learn English from it. It was so interesting and fun for us. But now in the university, it is still interesting to learn as I like the interactive way of learning. The students also not that many in our class, it makes easier and we can concentrate more on the subject.
