                                                    The Legend of Rawa Pening

Once upon a time, there was a little poor boy came into a little village. He was very hungry and weak. He knocked at every door and asked for some food, but nobody cared about him. Nobody wanted to help the little boy.

Finally, a generous woman helped him. She gave him shelter and a meal. When the boy wanted to leave, this old woman gave him a “lesung”, a big wooden mortar for pounding rice. She reminded him, “please remember, if there is a flood you must save yourself. Use this “lesung” as a boat”. The “lesung” was happy and thanked the old woman.The little boy continued his journey. While he was passing through the village, he saw many people gathering on the field. The boy came closer and saw a stick stuck in the ground. People challenged each other to pull out that stick. Everybody tried, but nobody succeeded. “Can I try?” asked the little boy. The crowd laughed mockingly. The boy wanted to try his luck so he stepped forward and pulled out the stick. He could do it very easily. Everybody was dumbfounded.

Suddenly, from the hole left by stick, water spouted out. It did not stop until it flooded the village. And no one was saved from the water except the little boy and the generous old woman who gave him shelter and meal. As she told him, he used the “lesung” as a boat and picked up the old woman. The whole village became a huge lake. It is now known as Rawa Pening Lake in Salatiga, Central Java, Indonesia.

What is a Butterfly?

         Butterflies are beautiful, flying insects with large scaly wings.like all insects, they have six legs, three body parts, a pair of antennae, and compound eyes. The three body parts are the head, thorax (the chest), and abdomen (the tail end). The four wings and the six legs of the butterfly are connected to the thorax. The thorax contains the muscles that make the legs and wings move.Butterflies ere very good fliers. They have two pairs, of large wings covered with colourful scales. Butterflies and moths are the only insects that have scaly wings. The wings are connected to the butterfly’s thorax (mid-section). Butterflies can only fly if their body temperature is above 27 degrees Centigrade. Butterflies sun themselves to warm up in cool weather. As butterflies get older, the colour of the wings fades and the wings become ragged.

      The speed varies among butterfly species (the poisonous varieties are slower than noun – poisonous varieties). The fastest butterflies can fly at about 50 kilometers per hour (kph) or faster. Slow flying butterflies fly about 8 kph.

I stayed a night at Sakhuwa of Gati VDC because a landslide near Baseri had blocked the road, The next morning, I hopped onto the bus with registration number Ba 2 Kha 4013 that was on the way to Barhabise from Tatopani. I took a seat by the doorside and remember that there were around 35 passengers, including me. The driver started the bus. A kilometer into the journey, I noticed a ditch on the road.

The driver tried to avert the ditch. Before I could know what was going on, the bus started hurtling towards the Bhotekoshi. I had given up hope of surviving, but found a ventilator glass broken. I came out of the shattered glass and plunged into the Bhotekoshi The river carried me for about 35 kilometers and left me on the shallow surface. I passed out after that. The rescuers took me to a hospital when I regained consciousness.

How to Make a Milkshake

The ingredients that you need to make a milkshake are:

• 4 cups vanilla ice cream
• 2 cups milk
• 4 teaspoons chocolate sauce (optional)
• 1 cup fresh or frozen strawberries

Now, follow these steps to make a milkshake.

2. Soften ice cream. It is easier to make a shake when the ice cream is slightly soft. Take the ice cream out of the freezer a few minutes before making your shake.
3. Place the ingredients into a blender. Mix the ice cream, milk and added flavors into the blender. Blend on high for one minute. Don’t leave in the blender for longer or the shake will melt quickly.
4. Pour shakes into frosty glasses. Take the glasses out of the freezer as soon as the blending is complete. Then pour the shake mixture in.

Panda

The giant panda, or panda is a bear native to central-western and south western China. It is easily recognized by its large, distinctive black patches around the eyes, over the ears, and across its round body. Though it belongs to the order Carnivora, the panda's diet is 99% bamboo. Pandas in the wild will occasionally eat other grasses, wild tubers, or even meat in the form of birds, rodents or carrion. In captivity they may receive honey, eggs, fish, yams, shrub leaves, oranges, or bananas along with specially prepared feed.

The giant panda lives in a few mountain ranges in central China, mainly in Sichuan province, but also in the Shaanxi and Gansu provinces. Due to farming, deforestation and other development, the panda has been driven out of the lowland areas where it once lived.

The panda is a conservation reliant endangered species. A 2007 report shows 239 pandas living in captivity inside China and another 27 outside the country. Wild population estimates vary; one estimate shows that there are about 1,590 individuals living in the wild, while a 2006 study via DNA analysis estimated that this figure could be as high as 2,000 to 3,000. Some reports also show that the number of pandas in the wild is on the rise. However, the IUCN does not believe there is enough certainty yet to reclassify the species from Endangered to Vulnerable.

While the dragon has historically served as China's national emblem, in recent decades the panda has also served as an emblem for the country. Its image appears on a large number of modern Chinese commemorative silver, gold, and platinum coins. Though the panda is often assumed to be docile, it has been known to attack humans, presumably out of irritation rather than predation.

               The Power of Music in our life

Do you agree that music is important in our life? Yes I do, music has certain role completing our day to day activities. Here are some reasons why music is heard everywhere andanywhere. Music is a way to express feelings. When we fall in love, the kind of music we’d listen to would be all about love. When we’re sad, we would go for music that is melancholic in nature and immerse ourselves in the sadness. When we’re happy, we’d choose songs with happy tunes too.

Song can help to memorize the last experiences. A favorite song is a powerful documentary. People with Alzheimer which are impaired the brain would remember details about songs they were familiar with. For example, an elderly woman who couldn’t even remember her husband’s name wouldremember the details of her favorite song; when it was played, how it made her feel and things about the song that made it especially memorable for her.

Further, music can unite people for a cause and changes the world. A song with good lyric and striking deep chord can stimulate the universal feeling of all people. We can see it in the case of the famous and legendary Michael Jacson's Heal the World. It can arouse humanism of a lot people in this world.So what would the world be like without music? It would be lonely.

How Chocolate is Made

Have we wondered how we get chocolate from? Well this time we will enter the amazing world of chocolate so we can understand exactly we are eating.

Chocolate starts a tree called cacao tree. This tree grows in equatorial regions, especially in place such as South America, Africa, and Indonesia. The cacao tree produces a fruit about the size of a small pine apple. In side the fruits are the tree's seeds. They are also known as coco beans.

Next, the beans are fermented for about a week, dried in the sun. After that they are shipped to the chocolate maker. The chocolate maker starts by roasting the beans to bring out the flavour. Different beans from different places have different qualities and flavour. So they are often shorted and blended to produce a distinctive mix.

The next process is winnowing. The roasted beans are winnowed to remove the meat nib of the cacao bean from its shell. Then the nibs are blended. The blended nibs are ground to make it a liquid. The liquid is called chocolate liquor. It tastes bitter.

All seeds contain some amount of fat and cacao beans are not different. However, cacao beans are half fat, which is why the ground nibs from liquid. It is pure bitter chocolate.

More Dust Bins is Cleаner

To improve comfort аnd cleаnliness аt the school, there should be аn increаsing number of dust bins. When we look аt clаssroom, school corridors аnd schoolyаrd, there pаpers, minerаl wаter cops, strаws, аnd nаpkin everywhere. The condition of unseemliness reаlly hinders leаrning аnd teаching environment. They cаn be filled out with wаter coming from the rаin. This cаn be plаced for mosquito to spreаd out.

Anywаy I notice thаt most of the students hаve responsibilities for their school environment. They put their litter on the proper plаce but some of them аre not diligent enough to find the dust bins. The numbers of the dust bins in the school аre not enough. More dust bins should be put beside eаch step, outside of the clаssrooms аnd some аlong of the corridors. Probаbly one dust bin should be in every ten meters. So when students wаnt to throw аwаy their litters, they cаn find the dust bins eаsily.

When school is equipped with sufficient dust bins, students do not hаve problem of discomfort аny more. So provide more dust bins аnd school will be very cleаn аnd become а very nice plаce to study

Laskar Pelangi 

The work of Andrea Hirata's novel with 534 pages thick book contains a very interesting story. The story in the novel is a true story of the journey of a writer in pursuit of his dream to the French State. This story was touted to be crowded very interesting film by renowned director Riri Riza and Mira Lesmana. This novel is able to make the reader feel like drifting and brought into the story in it.

The story begins in Laskar Pelangi from the life of a boy named Curly who start school with had to wait ten children who want to attend school curls. Anxiously curls, Sahara, Trapani, Leek, Syahdan, Mahar, Latitude, Borek, A kiong, Bu Mus, Pak Harfan, and their parents waited to see if there is one more person who wants to go to school in SD Muhamaddiyah when, not ten children then, they will not be able to attend school.

The main character of the story he was named Curly A boy - a tough man, smart, brave, and willing to learn to dream like accomplishment. Latitude character is A boy - a very intelligent man, a genius, brave, but because that makes him keadaanlah Dropout. A figure is Mahar boys - men who sing smart, intelligent, and love the things - things unseen (mystery), Bu Mus is a woman who is very kind, thoughtful, and well-loved teacher students - students, and many figures other.

Style of language used Andrea Hirata considered good style and very interesting, in it other than the Indonesian language Bahasa Melayu also use that makes the reader look a little confused and have to guess what the purpose of that language. However, in every sense of the Malay language used there is always dikalimat bottom, so after reading the definition of the language in which we can digest back Malay was a little less understandable.

The flow contained within the novel is groove mix, but more predominantly use Path Forward. The author uses first person perspective, as an author of this story in the Main Store. So the story is intriguing for the reader to want to quickly finish reading it. The novel contains a lot of useful message for the readers.

The interesting thing about this novel is that it can awaken us not to be easily discouraged if, to achieve a dream. Teach us to be kind to your fellow and willing to help each other. In His novel, Andrea Hirata clever tuck questions are constantly implied, from the beginning of the story until the end of the story there is a sense of the Malay language and how to read it. However, with all its beauty and kelebihannnya, this novel makes the reader gets a little difficult because of the Malay language, the phrase and the sentence khiasan make this story a little difficult. Even so, the story is still compelling and loaded with messages that can be translated to contemplate and more deeply.
