Ah.. I guess everybody are very happy with this topic, and so curious to know how to make our life easier.. Even I know this life hacks, but have yet to do it... Not 100% guaranteed.
1. Heat a corn wrapped in a plastic in the microwave
Put a corn inside a plastic, and heat it in a microwave, just in a couple of minutes you will get a very delicious steamed corn, you have to put it inside a plastic to keep it fresh, unless it will dry. I'm not sure about the safety.
2. Not to promote, but buy smartphones, espc apple products
Siri is my new love, she helps me to power nap, just tell her, "wake me up in 15 minutes". And there are many things in your life, you can do easier with smartphones. What's more interesting, you can do another hacks with your smartphones. Double hacks!
3. Roll a lemon/orange on the table before you juice it
Some says, it will be easier for you to juice it
4. Make sure you keep your dog eats dog food
If your dog eats another food beside dog foods, its poop will be so gross, and it'll be quite bothersome to clean it. Dog foods will make its poop solid, small, dry, and 'beautiful' compares to those who don't. Btw, in my country, some people give their dog rice to eat, can you imagine how are those dog poop look like, unbelievable.
5. Do more than on things at the same time
Especially when you wake up late for work, to make it quick, wash your hair while you "po**" and also brush your teeth at the same time, in 2 minutes, you did all the job, you can also do the grooming. That will save you extra time to read newspaper in a more convenient way. Lol, this is a story from my friend.
Okay, enough with the poo, my life hacks are so dull, btw, this is about writing chalenge guys!
Actually, please, don't bother yourself reading this blog. This is just my note, consist new words I found or learned today. As I'm trying to remember those words, I will put it here with its sentences...
My hope, if there's any native or anyone who finds my mistake, please correct me, or suggest a more proper sentence. Thanks a lot guys!
1. She is such a reckless girl, hoping the cursory glance she did at her text book could make her pass the exam. Perusal reading should bring her pass.
2. This is not a party, it's debauchery.
3. Forgetting his petite posture, he throws a bowl to that big guy, right on his eye. That's what makes him so prominent among his friends.
4. To apply your admission to this university, there're some requirements you have to fulfill, one of those is your TOEFL score should be above 600.
5. A somewhat interesting from her is her aptitude to seduce polices.
6. Do you know the key to succeed, not IQ nor EQ, it's grit, fortitude, determination!
Who has ever get jealous with other people?
There's a painting on the wall of chapel in Pandua, made by Renaissance artist, named Giotto. He depicted envy as a creature with big and long ear, which can hear every bit of news of another's success, but also a tongue of a serpent to poison the reputation of the one of being envied.
And, what's even more interesting from that painting, the creature is blind, because the serpent bite its own eye, and destroying itself with its venomous evil.
When we envy people, that's exactly what we will do. But, without realize, It will put us in distress, unhappy, and make us forget about our own blessing. Put us in trouble and vexes.
And, what's the antidote.. well, the answer is to love. Just like a mother who never envies her own children, but hopes the best for her children. She always shares in happiness with her children achievements, because she loves her.
Stop being envy, but love, and gratitude!
Write to connect people.
I don't really like to write. But when I read some blogs, how a blog can be a micro and a simplified information, and how a blog could provide many great essays and information, I realise writing is an art and a tool to brighten and broaden people's mind. Just like a painter, who try to describe and put his emotion in his canvas, a writer with his creativity has to put an effort to choose a word, and make a clear picture that is on his mind. Good writer can describe things that seem can't be described.
Written words connect our heart and mind to the readers so they could understand what is inside us. Word has power, power to connect, to change, to touch, to inform, to make people believe what we believe, feel what we feel, think like we think, to 'infect' them with us. To be abel to do that is addicting.
But writing also gives benefit to the writer. When we write something, it helps us to define a clearer perspective about something we know or understand. Being discipline in writing, helps us to have more constructed thinking. And, to keep being discpline in writing, we have to equip ourself with more resources, so, I'm sure a good writer is also a good reader.
In this case, I'm so glad about this chalenge, actually, this is a writting I wrote few weeks ago, but I just have the chance to post it today, thanks to Tara, this make me learn to write in English, you are one of the most creative person I know.
Let's writing!
Sometimes life is not easy, sometimes we don't take it easy
Sometimes life is hard, but even harder to walk in others shoes
Sometimes we have to give our shoulder when we actually need one
Sometimes we have to try to be a rainbow, when we are in the middle of rainy cloud
Sometimes we are the candle, who burn ourselves to light the way
Sometimes the better way to live is to love than to be loved
Take it easy...
Sometimes, some time is a perfect time, why don't we live it more often sometime?
My country has a profound motto that is taught to every single student since they started school, the motto is “Unity in Diversity”, or in ancient local language is “Bhinekka Tunggal Ika”. And those words are written in our country’s symbol, the strong bird, Garuda.
I’m blessed to be born in a beautiful country, Indonesia. Indonesia is an archipelago compromising thousands of islands, blessed with fertile lands with so many vegetative. Many cultures, many languages, traditions, and of course with diversity in social classes of people.
Mostly are Moslems, and the others from the most are, Christians, Catholics, Buddhas, Hindus, and other religions. In my country, where some people have already gone abroad, study in top universities, but more people are uneducated, with low education, or even can not read, something is uncommon in developed country. And this kind of diversity you still can find in the capital city, moreover in small city. Nearly 50% are in adequate, but there are people who only earn below $1/day, and they have to feed their family. Some places are developed with great buildings, but some place even don’t have electricity, and they don’t know about modern clothes. Many people are really modern, but there are also people who live a simple live, in simple way, and with a simple mind.
That is why, Indonesia has that motto. Our country is big, so many people. We are different, not the same, but deep in our heart, we have to learn to unite despite of our differences, and contribute together for this country.
That is why our people love festival. From the culture to religion festival. Because at that moment we forget about our social and economic status and everybody join in the fun with the festive.
Although, it cannot be denied, there are still racism, pressure to the minority. But from what I see, my country is struggling to be more democratic, and respect differences and see them as the value of our country. Not much, but I hope so it will.
- Thank you for reading my blog, I hope you could correct all my mistakes here. Thanks forum! :)
When we were young, we often didn't care with all the advices given. Since you have passed that time, and (maybe) have realized all the wrong things or good things you had done, what advice would you give, or encouragement...
I hope what all of you will post here can become my lesson too...
Special thanks to my friend Dayne who has helped me for this discussion...
