Cartoon and Anime are my Food


When i was child, i often wasted my time to watch television while waiting my family return to home from their activity. Everyday i just watched cartoon and anime with my friends and i have the most favorite cartoon and anime that never absent watched by me. But before, let me explain what the different between cartoon and anime.

Basicly, both of all same—performed in animation, but the different is where is it made? Cartoon made by American but anime made by Japanese.

Now, let me recommended to you, what the old cartoon and anime that so cool!


1. Rugrats
First published of Rugrats at Nickelodeon channel. It told about the daily activity of eight babies (Tommy, Chuckie, Angelica, Lil, Pil, Dil, Kimi and Susie) that full of fantasy, imagination, funny and sweet. This is my favorite episode [WATCH]. In the progress of it is continued by All Grow Up cartoon which told about daily activiy of eight babies who grow up as junior high teenagers.

2.       2. Strawberry Shortcakes
Whoaaa!! It’s the sweetest cartoon that i ever watched. It’s good cartoon for children—i think. Why? Because this cartoon told about friendship and related to a family. How to help our friend when they have problem? And how to make good relation with our friends without quarrel.
Strawberry Shortcakes not only at TV cinema but also at movie, it showed that Strawberry Shortcakes is popular and have a lot of fans. And the most favorite things that i like from this cartoon is the name of all character, they are: Strawberry Shortcakes (main character), Rasberry Tart, Huckleberry Pie, Apple Dumplin, Plum Puddin, Apricot— They are the name of cake, aren’t they?


3.       3. Jimmy Neutron
After finished watched Jimmy Neutron for the first time, two sentences out of my mind: “I want became like Jimmy” or at least “One day, I want have boyfriend like Jimmy”. This is the 3D cartoon from Nickelodeon channel. It told about the genuis boy—Jimmy Neutron, that
have a lot of inventions and problem because of his inventions or his friends— Carlton Ulysses "Carl" Wheezer and Ramon Martin "Sheen" Estevez. In the daily life, Jimmy told as little boy that always wasted his time in his labolatory. But his experiment always disturb by Cynthia Aurora "Cindy" Vortex—his rival that always lose by him at school task.   
This is sci-fi cartoon that can gave me knowledge about science and also taught me that intelegency can reached  and lose anything.


4.       4. Dr. Slumps
It told about Arale Norimaki, the robot girl build by Senbei Norimaki to become as his little daughter. Arare has long hair and wore big glasses with full of black frame. She is naivety, energic and lack girl. In tv series, Dr. Slumps told about Arale’s struggle to convince the citizen of Penguin Village that she is normal girl and about Dr. Senbei’s inventions which full of science knowledge. This anime full of educated that wrapped in humor. So if you hate study with serious method, just watch it!


5.       5. Digimon 1st Season
Digimon first season published by Kids Station. It told about 7 kids who entered at Digital World unintentionally when they were at Summer camp. Because of it, they forced to save Digital World and Real World from evil. They helped by digivice—the digital power included of the digimon monster partner for them each other. They also helped by mysterious men named Genmai who always appeared at hologram and gave them information about their enemy.

My aunt ever said if she wanna give me pink present ! I said NO !!!
I choose I don't want present if the color pink. I ask her to choose another color.
I hate pink, so I also don't really like women accessories. Like hair bands or something that have relation with pink. I don't like story about princess. Many my friend said if  simple or tomboy girl. I don't think so. I don't care what they said about me.

Homework !! I Hate It !!


Homework is given tasks from teachers that we must do it at home. If my teacher give a little homework is fine , but my teacher always give me many homeworks. Hwaaaa .... it's makes me lazy to do it !
especially if the home work is little but it's very hard . waa,, it same ! I felt lazy to doit .
I don't know why I hate homework ?! You know , since I entered junior high school , I never do my homework ! :D hahaha
At elementary school, I also lazy do my homework. But if I do my homework at school, my friends will tell it to my teacher at that time! That's elementary school, I think is real and I really scared with the punishment. But it's different when I entered junior high school. The atmosphere is very different because now we are teenager. So if I do my homework at school, no one will tell it to my teacher. because almost students at my class do homework at school. The boys are very lazy about it ! just 2% at my class that do their homework at home. They are a diligent group, I said :D
You know, sometimes the smart student also do their homework at school. It has become habit at my life :D
Because many students do their homework at school, my school has new rule. it's if someone do their homework at school, they get 2 point :D
In the first, I observe it. But now it same with the past! I still do my homework at my school...

One day, my parents asked to me why I never do my homework. I just said if I'm lazy. hahaha :D
My teacher at math course said if do and cheat homework is okay, but I must study it at home.
I felt happy when my teacher said that! I think if my teacher bless me to cheat my friend's homework :D
Kind of homework that I like is the homework must find with browsing :)
Sometimes, When my teacher at school has entered my class, I still do the homework. It's very cool

Or sometimes I don't do my homework :D hahaha, not only me, but also my friends :D
Do you think cheat my friend's homework is bad ?? I don't think so !
Are you also cheat and do your homework at school ??

If I am trying to do my homework at home. I always feel sleepy. in the end I don't do it :)
It same .......
Have you experience like me ?? heheee ..

Thank's

Pink




 Colors are devided into two groups. First is additive color that came from light or called spectrum and the main colors of additive color are Red, Green, and Blue (RGB).The second is subtractive color that come from pigmen and the main colors of subtractive color are Cyan, Magenta, and Yellow (CMY).
            Pink is a gradation from light red or mixed white and red. Pink has many means and symbols. Some people said pink means women, love, feminin, softness, warmth, sweetness, and emotional. Pink also related with admiring, thanksgiving, shympatic, romantic, and gives young spirit impression.



By the health side pink is symbols of women, girls babies, and pink ribbon usually for supporting the victims of breast cancer. The research clarified that women prefer to pink than blue. Most of the accessories of the newborn girl babies are pink.



Pink roses are symbols of thanksgiving, love, sweetness, and poetic looks.The light roses pink related with admiring and softness that uses for shympatic feeling. The dark roses pink are the symbols of appreciating and thanksgiving.





If your hobby is sleeping, try to decorate your bedroom with pink, it can give relax and romantic situation. And I have tried it. I helped my daddy to decorate my room with pink. We changed the paint from white to pink. Firstly we moved anything from my room. Then we cleaned the wall and started to paint it. We needed about two days to finished it. We’ve done it well. It was a pleasant experience and I love my new room.
After that change, I though I felt more comfortable with my new room. Pink paint can calm my mind especially when I’m getting stress and I feel at ease with pink. But don’t use this color if you want to give the sensual taste.

Sing Till You Drop

Karaoke is very familiar to me. When i was about 9 years old, i remember my parents bought a karaoke tape player. My father bought some cassettes and i sung almost everyday at that time (though the songs were Indonesian evergreen songs). I love singing and karaoke was a superb technology at that time.
As years gone by my best friend once asked me to join him at a karaoke place. Then it was the starter of my greatest moment in a karaoke room. I couldn't even feel that the time ticking so so fast. I didn't even notice that i've spent almost 3 hours for singing with my best friend. wow...
Then after that in a month i always have time for karaoke-ing. I've asked the other outstanding whizzes to save money and spend some time for karaoke-ing. I'll share more time when i have that with them.
The longest  time i've spent in a karaoke place is 3 hours. I can sing more than 50 songs within 3 hours. I sing the happy songs, sad songs, old songs, new songs, rap, hip hop, any songs.
To me karaoke is the best way to spend my time, to boost my mood, and unfortunately spend more and more money...sigh...

I do Hate YELLOW!



Yellow is the only color that I do hate. I hate it since I was in 1st grade at Junior High School because I have bad experience closed with yellow. It began when I return to my house by bicycle slowly, in the middle of my journey I met a boy with his friends that I recognized if they were at the same school with me. One of them who wear yellow bag approached to me and asked my name, my address, my hobby and the other annoyed questions but I unanswered it and keep silent saw the street. A few minutes later he said rude words to me—he seems angry because I don’t answer his question then he attacked my bicycle’s back tube until I fell from it. I stand up and punch his head and escaped from him passed the narrow street. After that day everyday I met him after school ended and he always disturb me—jokes me, stole my school tools, brake my bicycle tools, etc. Since this moment every come back to home I saw around a boy with yellow bag, if there is nothing him I’ll come back home soon and if I met a boy with yellow bag I’ll hid and checked whose it.

Except it yellow is too brightly, I prefer dark color than bright color. And yellow is identical with dirty things for example… yeah, you know that Surabaya’s people called it: Yellow—in—the river! (Yaiks)

Yellow is banana’s color too and I hate banana but my daddy always forced me to ate it because it have a lot of nutrition and nice to our health.
Increased again the reasons why I hate yellow.

So someday if you wanna gave me something please: Don’t with YELLOW color! Hehehehe
