What a Way to Spend New Year's Eve...

Living in digital world these days would be more meaningful if you can create such movement
From creating apps to make one's life better like KitaBisa.com (go check the link to find that a LOT of people are indeed in need of some help). So I would like to shout out to some people out there who refuse the waves of digital world. Seriously, you can start doing something that would matter the world to other people. Why is that so hard to understand?

Don't focus on the negativity it would bring. There is always 2 sides of EVERYTHING. What matter the most is how you react to it.

So, enough the preamble. Last night was quite fun and different from any other new year's eves. I have been recruited to Creative Division of Bebas Sampah Movement. I volunteer myself as a graphic designer. It's been ages! Whoa! 

And last night, the Media and Public Figure divisions also volunteered to clean the New Year's Eve venue. We brought a giant plastic bag and threw any inorganic litter inside. It was just a sudden idea that came to one of our member team. Since it was abruptly coming out of her head, so there was only four of us, representing each division. It was a lot of fun, indeed. The venue was around Summarecon Mall, Serpong, Tangerang, which held a DJ and fireworks party.




Hashtag #LessWasteParty, we also empty out our lungs to the crowd celebrating New Year's eve on the street. 'Bring your own litter, don't clutter the road!' Thankfully, since they saw us bending our bodies down, taking each one of plastic bag, snack packaging, and plastic bottle, they kind of sad maybe lol and they started taking their own litters and threw it inside the giant plastic bag that we brought over. 

But there was TOO many trash around the venue and we couldn't help ourselves to keep piling it up, until the plastic bag is the same size of Hana chan's height! And it seemed like we couldn't do it all. It's kind of sad at the same time, to see those litters on the street. Just scary to even think about it...

The message that we learn from last night, we need to make it habitual, like annually embark on the street and cleaning up the trash. YOSH! It's just a pilot movement. We can still do it next year! Next time, it should be national movement!

My Star by Robert Browning

My Star by Robert Browning  Poem Analysis Today, I'd like to present my poem analysis; My Star by Robert Browning . This poem analysis would be divided into three parts, namely: introduction which will tell a brief background life of the poet, then to the content where there will be summary and intrinsic elements of this poem, and then move to the conclusion as the finish line. But more importantly, you need to know why I choose this poem, which belongs to Men and Women (1885)  poems collections of Browning. It is because this dainty love lyric is just beautiful and simple, in words-chosen and easy to understand too. More importantly, this poem shows us how the beauty of a person is different depending on its beholder. Yet, we should respect the differences.

The reign of the Puritans also produce a large amount of literature (poetry, prose), but drama could not thrive because it is prohibited by the authorities.

Since it is holiday already, so I have more time to gather the data and publish this article, which is entitled Gender Stereotypes and Performativity in Frozen movie . I analyzed this movie in order to complete the assignment given in Children literature class. But it turned out interesting! I focused only one theory; performativity from Judith Butler. Check out the analysis from my paper! The writer analyzes Frozen movie by focusing only one theory; performativity from Judith Butler. In order to not broaden it into some theories that may be found in the plot, the writer thinks the misconstrued-performances of the main characters, Anna and Elsa are easily seen and become vast majority start from the beginning until the very end of the movie. But it doesn’t mean other theories are forgotten. Something that the writer immediately thought about when finishing the movie was that Frozen is perhaps the queerest animated film ever produced by Disney–queer as being a theoretical practic
