Jaques (Act II, Scene VII, lines 139-166) by William Shakespeare

"All the world's a stage,
And all the men and women merely players;
They have their exits and their entrances;
And one man in his time plays many parts,
His acts being seven ages. At first the infant,
Mewling and puking in the nurse's arms;
And then the whining school-boy, with his satchel
And shining morning face, creeping like snail
Unwillingly to school. And then the lover,
Sighing like furnace, with a woeful ballad
Made to his mistress' eyebrow. Then a soldier,
Full of strange oaths, and bearded like the pard,
Jealous in honour, sudden and quick in quarrel,
Seeking the bubble reputation
Even in the cannon's mouth. And then the justice,
In fair round belly with good capon lin'd,
With eyes severe and beard of formal cut,
Full of wise saws and modern instances;
And so he plays his part. The sixth age shifts
Into the lean and slipper'd pantaloon,
With spectacles on nose and pouch on side;
His youthful hose, well sav'd, a world too wide
For his shrunk shank; and his big manly voice,
Turning again toward childish treble, pipes
And whistles in his sound. Last scene of all,
That ends this strange eventful history,
Is second childishness and mere oblivion;
Sans teeth, sans eyes, sans taste, sans everything."

Dear Dumb-Dork-and-Dick Dude

This is the second post of the month but I will write something that happened to me that TOTALLY makes me angry
As we all know, after the Study Tour to Jakarta-Bogor-Bandung ended we have to make a report about this
I ALREADY SAID THIS to all of my group members before we go for Study Tour “I can’t write an article about this because I have no time (training for scout competition, Students Organization jobs, home ordinary responsibility, a bunch of home works, many test and examinations, Sister School to Singapore and Malaysia) to write it. So if you told me to make it, I won’t make it because it’ll only stuck all of us with bad score for the report, so I’ll do the taking photos job,”
All of them were agreed
So when we were there, I took many photos, for about 200 photos
Then several days before today, (call him) ‘Dumb’ or ‘Dork’ or ‘Dick’ it’s up to you, Dumb told this to me “hey, where’s your article about the restaurant when we were on the travel to Jakarta??”
WHAT THE HECK?!!
I : “hello~?? I already told all of the group members that I can’t!!”
Dork : “but the article is haven’t completed yet! Because of YOU didn’t give us the article!”
I : “hey~, this is not my job and out of my responsibility! I already told you in the beginning!”
Dumb : “I haven’t heard about it yet!”
Then I start to think, okay this dude is REALLY AMUSING!!!
If the article is my responsibility, I’ll do it! But if not I won’t!!
We had a great debate about it, and until now I won’t make myself looks like the one who make a very big mistake!
Ani saw me and Dork having a great debate and she told Dumb that I’m the person who doesn’t make a mistake here
I was REALLY grateful!!
HAH!! Eat that DORK!!
Before this problem, I gave him the copy of photos that I took when we were having Study Tour
I thought that he’ll keep it carefully and won’t make troubles with that
But I was TOTALLY WRONG
He is a DUMB!! Guess what?!
He uploaded all the photos to Facebook!!!
Hey DICK!!! Are you a fool?! Other groups will save all of the photos less than 30 minutes instantly but I took the photos more than 3 days!!
Think about my sacrifices, your behaviors, your mistakes, your selfish emotion but the most important is YOUR DUMBNESS!!
I told him to delete the photo album from his Facebook account in 24 hours but he didn’t!!!
ARRRGGGGHH!!!! This dude is a trouble maker!!
He said “how do we can delete this album from my Facebook account??”
OH GOD!!
He is TOTALLY DUMB, DORK and DICK!!!
If I have to be honest, next time I won’t join a group with him inside it!!
It’ll KILL MYSELF!!
And don’t be worry if he read this post, he DON’T UNDERSTAND ENGLISH without Google Translator
Until now, I haven’t talk to him yet, he’s the one who made a fatal mistake and I won’t make friends again until he beg for it
And now, I’m waiting for his gentle act, oh yeah and I also think that he is a bitch
Because until now, he doesn’t want to talk to me or even tell me that he’s sorry
If he is a gentleman, he’ll talk to me at least a word!
That’s the point, he’s DORK, DUMB, DICK!!
And I HATE him so much!word!
That’s the point, he’s DORK, DUMB, DICK!!
And I HATE him so much!

Making Friends Is Not Easy

I think making friends is not easy
It’s the truth if I’m the Students Council President
But it doesn’t makes me have many friends just like in Manga and movies
The fact is they’re scared to me
I don’t know the reason why, and I also can’t figure it out
I realized it when (call her) Rien told me to do something, she said that I have ‘power’ to do it
Even also when (call him) Ragra said “I’ll annoy you…no, wait…I’m scared,”
But he didn’t say why he said that
Now, I’m feeling so lonely
Because, no one standing beside me until now…
Well, maybe Lina is but Lisa and Angel always nearby her
I won’t let anyone upset just because of myself
I think that Lisa and Angel would more need Lina than me
Anyway if I make friends with someone else, that’s not a good idea
The fact is no one in my class would make a good friendship story with me
The reason why is; each of them already have their own group, I can’t stuck up with them who doesn’t care or even understand about Students Council or other Students Organizations in my school, and I can’t talk with them because I have different interests with them
Actually, Nia, Liya, Rian and Indri are nice
But sometimes I can’t talk with them because the discussion topic that they are talking about I something that I don’t want to talk about
Oh, and also there are two groups in eighth grader, let’s call it K for the boys and B for the girls
Well (maybe) I’m the B group’s president
K group’s total member is for about 30 boys
While B group’s only 5 including me
The members of group B is; I, Lina, Syira, Fuli and Gana
Maybe you’re wondering why I don’t make friends with them
Let’s check it out one by one
First, Syira
Honestly, she is care, nice, and a novel lover
But she already makes friends with someone else and she is a person that I can’t completely understand
Well yah, sometimes she talks kindly in front of us but we can’t know what she will say in the back of us
And…psst…I think the word she says is harsh and over-confidence…
Second, Fuli
She’s cute, funny and knows a lot about Japan
But she also makes friends in her class
Honestly, sometimes she talks really harsh and cruel
And that’s absolutely not my friend type
Third, Gana
She is pretty, funky and modest
But I think that’s the reason why I won’t make her as a best friend of mine
She is over-funky while I’m not, that wouldn’t make us match
Last, Lina
As I said in the beginning of this post
She is match to me but sometimes not
And also she already has many friends
Until now, I’m still confusing about this problem
Just a while, I thought that no friend will not stuck me up with them
But I realized it’s wrong
No friend is lonely…

Scout Incident Part 2

Yesterday, the last big race for us; the eighth grader Scout Chamber Members
I woke up at 5
I sat on my bed and in my mind I thought ‘will us win the competition today..??’
Many thoughts that got to my mind…
6 AM, we gathered on 21 JHS
As usual, Fuli late as always…
Everyone thought that we are ready
Before we have our journey to Sultan Agung SHS, I asked Utama what did he practiced for KIM (because I and Utama have responsibility for KIM material)
So I studied with him
He knows a lot, but he forgot to study about scanner (the KIM material is about IT)
When we arrived at Sultan Agung SHS, we saw our biggest enemy for the Scout Competition’s ---1 JHS--- base-camp
The competition started, all of us split based on our material competition
I and Utama had to go to Building E’s Hall
The KIM’s rule is 90 seconds for memorize and look at the picture while 5 minutes to answer, there are 20 pictures that we should to write down in a piece of paper
Well, in the end I got 19 stuffs that I remember and I’m sure 75% from all of it is correct
Then, I asked Utama about this
He also got 19 stuffs, but he’s faster than me when we do the task
Then I checked the pioneering, I stood on the top of Michelia’s pioneering but it doesn’t move AT ALL, amazing!!
I asked about the Morse, they said that they just got 1 mistake
While PU/PUK was succeeded
Nia had job to do this PU/PUK, after she finished it I said to her ‘I don’t know why, but I have a very bad feeling…’ she can’t give any comment about that
And Sandi, just 1 confusing number
I was really optimistic about this, but somehow, I even don’t know where it comes from… I felt that something’s not right here… even I said this bad feeling to Nia
But I have to stay focus for PBB
It’s a little bit not succeeded, but when I have mistake that I did, the judge didn’t saw me because they were writing the score
So PBB was completely saved because of weird judges
Yel-Yel competition, the moment that I waiting for
I scream and yell as strong as I can until I can’t stop my sweat for moments
Yel-yel competition was great and firing!
All of the race end at 2 PM
After that, my family took me somewhere else
So I didn’t saw the Competition Winner Announcement by my own
5 PM, I was waiting for the message that will appear in my mobile inbox
I asked Lina about the announcement but she said that it haven’t been announced yet
A quarter past 6, I sent Lina a message and asked about the announcement
She answered ‘we just got 3rd seat for PU/PUK’
WHAT?!! I DON’T BELIEVE IT!! I mean, HELLO!? We already give our best but why we still have bad news?!
We already do the best, the name of 21 JHS goes with us and we make it down, but why?! Why we didn’t win the competition?!
I thought at least we’ll have the 3rd seat but I guess I was wrong
Tarantula was better than us; they got 1st seat for Morse and 3rd seat for PU/PUK
I shocked and I can’t believe it so I called Lina
She said that it is true
Michelia was really shocked and disappoint
And I started to think that Mr.Pit said was RIGHT but we won’t listen to him
THAT’S OUR BIGGEST MISTAKE
I think yesterday was a total humiliation for us…
It becomes regret that we can’t erase
The seniors already heard about it, I realized that they are really disappoint to us
Anyway, the seventh grader Scout Chamber Members won the competition on SMK 17
Humiliation…
Competition, if we win it’ll make our pride higher but if we lose the competition will be the sword that would kill our pride especially for 21 JHS as a school with great scout reputation for years
Because of this, Rotun told us that her parents doesn’t agree anymore if she still be one of the eighth grader Scout Chamber so she won’t train 7th grader with us anymore
And Erma’s parents will not permit her to enter a RSBI SHS because she doesn’t win this competition

Scout Incident Part 1

Today is H-1 for the Scout Competition
Because the ninth grader students are having a Try Out this morning until 9 AM, so we have much time to prepare for the competition
Mr.Pit said that we have to arrive at 21 JHS on 7 AM
Our most biggest regret is this time
That time, all of the 7th grader Scout Chamber Members were already arrived
But the eighth grader Scout Chamber Members weren't there yet
Michelia only got 5 members while the Tarantula only got 7 members on 7 AM
In the beginning already thought that Mr.Pit will angry and very disappoint to us ---the eighth grader Scout Chamber Members---
Because of that the 7th grader had the practice earlier than the eighth grader
I was a little upset because we didn't have ANY efficient practice at all (from the beginning and until now)
Tarantula was better because they had a Pionering practice
Michelia had nothing but in the end we could had a PBB practice
After all of us done with our practice, Mr.Pit gathered us
He said it seriously, with no doubt
"The eighth grader, I won't permit you to have a competition tomorrow, all of the eighth grader will not have a competition tomorrow!"
All of us shocked
We tried to beg him
But he still don't let us to have the competition...
In my mind, I thought if Mr.Pit thinks that IT IS the best for us, the best for 21 JHS, why not?!
But the other eighth grader Scout Chamber Members said “no way that we could retreat from this competition! We already registered and we already trained our self until today! We can’t end up like this!!”
Phew, this is the part that I MOST hate
And I thought there’s no way Mr.Pit will say bullshit just to drop our mind or even test our toughness, that’s an INSANE move! He won’t play us just like we are dolls and he also thinks what will happen next
But I really regret the part that I can’t stop my friends when they still want to have this competition even if they have to die
They just keep blaming, mumbling and anything about that
The fact is they WERE blaming Mr.Pit because all of THESE
Maybe I’m silly, maybe I’m dummy, maybe I’m idiot, maybe I’m a fool, maybe I’m a dick, maybe I’m stinks but I THOUGHT ‘Mr.Pit always have reasons for each steps that he walks, and the reason why he retreat us is because we ARE NOT READY YET for this, if we’re not ready for this we’ll end up loose and make 21 JHS’s reputation down’ and if it also brings the good name of 21 JHS I as the Students Council President of 21 JHS won’t let 21 JHS’s reputation down for good!
The other eighth grader Scout Chamber Members still REALLY WANTS TO have this race
And they said that we’ll try harder and harder to get the trophy
They promised, and I really regret it, why I still give them trust??
If I know it will happen, I’ll not let them move further anymore
Then, Mr.Fatchu said that he’ll talk to Mr.Pit so things could have ending up clearly and fairly.
*Bell School Ringing
“All of the eighth grader Scout Chamber Members please gathers up at 9F class,”
All of the eighth grader Scout Chamber Members gathered up
Mr.Fatchu brought good news; he said that we’ll still have a competition tomorrow and Mr.Pit permitted us
All was settled and we have to do the best for tomorrow…

Students Council President

It's been about 4 months I officially became the new Students Council President
Honestly, be a Students Council President is a difficult job
Every word I say will be my responsibility
Each step that I try to do will have many difficulty
Every task that I received will involve the Students Council name
Each thing that I do will be the place where spotlight's light stops
Every responsibility that I have will be my pride but as well as a sword that could kill my pride
In the beginning, actually, I don’t believe someone like me could be ---and chosen as-- the Students Council President
But because about 367 from 576 students in 21 JHS chose me as the next Students Council President, I can’t let my ---even a half of 1 cm---foot step backward
Even if I try to go back, will I be someone who dares to do it with innocent face??
Senior Tama (remember?? The last Students Council President on 21 JHS), a person who be the most diligent and really cares about school’s organizations (anyway, I don’t really hope he read this one #lol)
A period when he be the Students Council President, he always do the correct purposes like always wearing black shoes when school time, put the top school uniform in the shorts, wearing complete attributes, be the Ceremony Leader properly, never absent from school ---as I know---, never wearing jacket ---even when he was sick--- and many examples that he done when he was the Students Council President
Yeah, I heard about that he was chosen by Mr.Pit (not the students) so he could be the Students Council President, but I must say he’s a really great Students Council President
After he doesn’t seat his throne anymore, he always look after us (amateurs, beginners, rookies, dicks, some kind of that) as a senior but also as the Students Council President former
He said that he will look after us so 21 JHS won’t stop its ‘light’
I think that’s a wise choice…
When he says that I thought in my tiny brain and slow brain-processor, will I be a better Students Council President or at least as good as him…??
I’m not really optimistic about this one
I never figure out what will I do next so I could be a better Students Council President
This few days, I can’t sleep really well for thinking of this problem…
My question is, will I could surpass senior Tama…??

The Green Hornet

Guys, guess what??
I got two days ‘retirement’
On Monday, I and Mom and my little brother went to hospital
I got sore-throat and a fever
Then the doctor said that I have to have a rest for two days
Gosh! In the beginning I tried to refuse it but my mom said “that’s great because I also want to have a rest, in this few days I’m so tired,”
So I can’t refuse it…
The reason I want to refuse it because the last Scout Competition is less than a week!
In the end I don’t have practice or preparation for it for two days
Okay, so today (9/2/2011) is the last day of my ‘retirement’
Today, I went to many places
In the morning, I went to Bank, Post Office, Photo Studio (for the Scout Competition registration), McDonalds, my little brother’s Elementary School, and…
O yeah, bad news, my grandfather checked-in to the hospital (again) because of his heart again…
I feel so sorry about that, my mom heard about the news by phone and after mom end the call her nose turned red and she started to cry…
Then this afternoon, I and my mom picked my little brother earlier
After we pick my little brother we went to the hospital
My grandfather got a room, and the room number is 307
The clock showed 4 PM
Actually, mom promised that we’ll watch The Green Hornet together this week
So (ssh! Don’t tell anyone okay! Especially my family!), after we went to hospital we went to PARAGON to watch The Green Hornet
I guess mom want to watch it today because she needs a refreshing thing because lately she is totally frustrated…
We got Studio 3 and A 7-9 seat
The film is REALLY INTERESTING!
It tells about a son (Reid Britt) of a head-chief of a newspaper company who loves to be trouble-maker in his school
Then he met his dad in his dad’s office then his dad asked him not to be a trouble-maker
His dad was very disappoint to him then he grabbed Reid’s ‘Superman’ toy then he broke the toy with put its head off from its body
20 years later, Reid loves to party and make such his life gone crazy
His dad warned his son for the things that he done, but the son won’t listen to his dad
Next morning, when Reid enter his family’s mansion, the reporters, journalists, cameramen, was in front of the mansion
They asked Reid what is his reaction about his father’s dead
Reid didn’t know a thing about his dad’s dead
His dead actually dead because of a sting of a bee
He knew about it when he saw the reporters asked him about it
And, when Reid’s father been buried there was a statue of Reid’s dad built nearby Reid’s dad graveyard
Next morning, based on the tradition, Reid has to take-over his dad’s job
He doesn’t know anything about newspaper thing
Even he never read a newspaper from the beginning until the end of it
He was really frustrated
One morning, he found his morning coffee with different taste that he ever taste each morning
He angrily looking for the housekeeper and asked “why does my coffee taste’s feels different?!”
“Oh, sir, the coffee maker as well as a mechanic doesn’t work here anymore since your father’s dead,”
“Who is this guy?!” Reid asked
“It’s Kato sir,”
“I want Kato NOW!!” He answered angrily
Then when Kato arrived, Reid asked Kato why the coffee that Kato make feels tastier than the other coffees
The answer is Kato built a machine that has function to make a coffee
Kato is a genius!
He could make unique cars!
Those cars can blow fire, has handguns, bazooka, bombs and many things that you can’t imagine!
Reid seems very excited about Kato, and then he asked “where are you from??”
“I’m from Shang Hai, do you know Shang Hai??” Kato answered
“Oh yes, I love Japan!”#LOL!
Reid got some loony idea
He asked Kato to make their life crazier than ever; do crazy things in night with some outfit so no one could figure who is the guy behind the mask
Kato accepted Reid’s loony idea
Their first crime is put off Reid’s dad statue
When Reid put it off, he saw a bunch of criminal that surrounding a couple
The ‘bad boys’ hurt the couple so Reid jump off from the bushes and shout “hey! Leave them alone!!”
The criminals turned to Reid
Reid said “now I’m in trouble! Kato! Help!”
Kato is listening to the music in the car then heard Reid’s voice then he jump off from the car and help Reid with his karate jutsu
Kato is awesome!
Then Kato and Reid escaped, but Reid been captured by a CCTV Camera so in the next morning his picture be the first page in the newspaper
Reid was more excited for doing this job
In his office, he made Kato be his assistant
When there was a meeting about the last night’s crime, one of the meeting person said “should we give a name to this fella (Reid, actually)??”
“Ah! What about the ‘Green Bee’??” (he got this name from some pages of newspapers that he saw in front of him)
“No, I don’t like it,” many of the meeting persons said it
“What about the ‘Green Hornet’??” Kato asked
“Yea, much better!” most of them agreed for Kato’s answer
Every night, Kato and Reid always shows their acts (as criminals and heroes)
And Green Hornet becomes really famous but there’s someone who dislikes if the Green Hornet be famous…
Exciting right?! Just watch the Green Hornet!
An amazing movie that you can’t miss!

Manga And Anime!

Hey guys, this is the 62nd post but I never post a special post that content about Manga or Anime 100%
And I will use this post to write about it, so enjoy!
Here's the history of anime, the history of anime began at the start of the 20th century, when Japanese filmmakers experimented with the animation techniques that were being explored in the West. During the 1970s, anime developed further, separating itself from its Western roots, and developing distinct genres such as mecha and its Super Robot sub-genre. Typical shows from this period include Lupin III and Mazinger Z. During this period several filmmakers became famous, especially Hayao Miyazaki and Mamoru Oshii.

In the 1980s, anime was accepted in the mainstream in Japan, and experienced a boom in production. The rise of Gundam, Macross, Real Robot and Space Opera set a boom as well. The film Akira set records in 1988 for the production costs of an anime film and went on to become a success worldwide. Later, in 2004, the same creators produced Steamboy, and later took over as the most expensive anime film. The Super Dimension Fortress Macross also became a worldwide success after being adapted as part of Robotech, and Megazone 23 also gained recognition in the West after it was adapted as Robotech: The Movie.

And here's the story of Manga, the History of manga originates from scrolls dating back to the 12th century, however whether these scrolls are actually manga is still disputed, though its believed they represent the basis for the right-to-left reading style. Other authors report origins closer to the 18th century. Manga is a Japanese term that generally means "comics" or "cartoon", literally "whimsical sketches." Historians and writers on manga history have described two broad and complementary processes shaping modern manga. Their views differ in the relative importance they attribute to the role of cultural and historical events following World War II versus the role of pre-War, Meiji, and pre-Meiji Japanese culture and art.

Life Is Like A Boat By Rie Fu

Nobody knows who I really am
I never felt this empty before
And if I ever need someone to come along,
Who's gonna comfort me, and keep me strong?

We are all rowing the boat of fate
The waves keep on coming and we can't escape
But if we ever get lost on our way
The waves would guide you through another day

Far away, I'm breathing
As if I were transparent
It would seem I was in the dark
But I was only blindfolded

I give a prayer
As I wait for the new day
Shining vividly
Up to the edge of that sea

Nobody knows who I really am
Maybe they just don't give a damn
But if I ever need someone to come along
I know you would follow me, and keep me strong

People's hearts change
And sneak away from them
The moon in its new cycle
Leads the boats again

And every time I see your face, the ocean heaves up to my heart
You make me wanna strain at the oars, and soon
I can see the shore

Oh, I can see the shore
When will I see the shore?

I want you to know who I really am
I never thought I'd feel this way towards you
And if you ever need someone to come along,
I will follow you, and keep you strong

And still the journey continues
On quiet days as well
The moon in its new cycle
Shines on the boats again

I give a prayer
As I wait for the new day
Shining vividly
Up to the edge of that sea

And every time I see your face, the ocean heaves up to my heart
You make me wanna strain at the oars, and soon
I can see the shore

We are rowing the boat of fate,
But the waves keep attacking us
But isn't that still a wonderful journey?
Aren't any of them a wonderful journey?

Lacrimosa By Kalafina

Joining harmoniously in the dark
Despair and the future
The moonlight that exposes my sorrow
Shines coldly

With the secret you gave me as a companion
I proceed into the silence of the blue night

Lacrimosa
Broken and vanishing into the distance
I want to love this dazzling world once more
I hide my dreams within my eyes
Until my tainted heart
Receives falling tears

A phantom carriage parts the darkness
On its way to where there is light
The trap known as dreams
Lures us into the inferno

To the merciless gods above the sky
No cry will get through
Lacrimosa...

Let us become firewood that has been burnt until we are hollow
And burn that sky until it is no more

Lacrimosa
Fallen and born here
I want to love this blood-soaked world without fear
Instead of being forgiven, forgive and have faith
And remain on the face of this earth
To count the tearful days that pass
