Junk food is meal that produced fastly and easy which only concerned the taste without consider the nutrition. In this occasion, there are several facts about junk food.

Based on nutrition facts of McDonalds hambuger we find that in a hamburger there are 32 gram carbohydrate, 10 gram fat, and 13 gram protein. Actually our body needs 62 gram of fat, 300 gram of charbohidrate, and 60 gram of protein each day.

My First Movie

     At the first time, when my lecturer gave me assisgnment about making a movie I feel confused. That was because I did not know what to make movie with stories like what. I tried to not suspend my assignment, but the inspiration was coming at 2 days before the assignment was submitted. Then, I decided to choose the theme of friendship.


     Making a movie with using movie maker is not too hard. But, that an obstacle is when you're working on movie maker, suddenly your project in movie maker is not responding. And of course it is very annoying even make you frustating. Moral value based on my experience is don't use usual movie maker but use minimal Windows Live Movie Maker, so you feel more fun when making movie.

     Oh ya, in here I have also included my first movie. I know my movie not perfect but hopefully entertaining.
Happy watching..

Problems in Learning a Language

    There are many excuses from the people that learning a language is too difficult and many people just do not expect the problems that arise while a language, and consequently give up. In addition, the obstacles associated with learning a language are approach, pronunciation, word order, preposition, visual reinforcement, bravery (speak it!), and patience.


    The article gives explanation about how to solve the obstacles in learning a language. The first is an approach that basically has to turn our thinking upside down. In pronunciation we need to not only take the time to listen to exactly how a word is said when someone else is pronouncing it, but also take the time to listen to our self as we say it. For word order, we must pay attention to word placements, because if we make mistake in a phrase it will be confusing for our partner.


    Preposition is how to use “at, in, on” in a exact manner. Visual reinforcement such expression or gesture when we speak about something. Bravery in learning a language that is we do not be afraid to make mistakes and laugh at ourselves when we do. We must look for the information from English language, grammar and composition, and reading. The last solution is the patience because we must be patient with our self for takes time and practice about learning.


    Based on the article I can conclude that learning a language is easy if we implement that solves in our daily problem about language, because now we especially me learn about language. I can feel such the article that learning a language is not too hard such in my imagine. Honestly, at the first time when I learn the other language that is English I felt scare even shy because I think my English is so bad than other.


    I agree with the article that explained and mentioned about the obstacles and solve that problem. Because, indirectly after I reflect to my own self about the problems which has explained in the article that is same with my problems and of course that answer my problems too. I think the article can be motivated us especially me to more enthusiasm learning a language.

Our Earth in Our Hands

    Do you still remember about earthquake in Japan, tsunami in Aceh, tornado in US? We already know that there are many disasters in the world. In addition, we know that disaster doesn’t come naturally because everything there must be reasons and one of the answers to it all is global warming. In here I would like to inform what the causes and how to solve that problem.
 

    Global warming is not only about “rising average temperature of Earth's atmosphere and oceans” (Wikipedia, 2011) but only there are some impacts which have relation with human activities. Human is part of living things that never stop to make innovation and creating something new. That is become problem because sometime they do everything to get what they want although it’s not right. For example is activity of human to fulfill their needs especially in terms of properties such as the need for wood. Some of them who are not responsible do illegal logging, this means that they are damaging environment because they are disturb ecosystem of forest that actually forest is the place for produce oxygen order to prevent the global warming.
 

    Another activity of human is driving. Some of them want to move fromone place to another place quickly so that they need vehicle such as car or motorcycle. The problem is when many people have personal vehicle or vehicles that are not environmentally. That where it is causing excessive exhaust gas resulting greenhouse effect and the impact on ozone destruction and global warming. Not only the vehicles that emit exhaust gas but only electronic things such as refrigenerator, air conditioning, even hairspray and aerosol sprays also contain CFCs that have an impact on global warming. 
 

    Another cause of global warming is farm animals especially cow. Believe it or not, exhaust gas that produced by cows is significant factor contributing to global warming. Ironically, not all the people believe about this and think of it is a joke. Recently many people, who campaigned for not eating meat, especially beef because as more and more people eating meat, the more farm animals are needed.
 

    Based on what has been described above, it can be concluded that the causes of global warming include illegal logging, exhaust gas, and methane gas produced by farm animals especially cows. Some of us may already know about this problem, but in here I just want to remind again that we are human being and human being who plays a lot in this regards. By reducing the use vehicles especially personal vehicles, saving electricity usage, reducing air conditioning usage, and reducing the consumption of meat it means that we also preserve earth and salvation of ourselves though human needs cannot be stopped and infinite.
