Note-taking tactics

After a while, I'm coming back to write this blog. And this time, professionally.
The purpose? to accomplish a high score in my Academic English
Never before I ever thought that blogging is a very useful thing to do until my teacher said that by blogging, you can promote yourself and maybe someday there's a job lying in front of you because of your interesting topics that you mention in your blog.

At the second week of my campus life, my teacher taught me about the tactics in note-taking.
They are considered to play an essential parts because most of the times the lecturers will speak too fast and the students are not able to record everything that the teacher have said.
So, here's my note based on the recording played in the class

Can you guess which type of tactics that I used?
For all of you that have attended mind-mapping class before, definitely you can answer my question.
Yes, it is called a linear method.
And there are 2 basic methods to record notes:
1. Spyderweb
2. Linear

Personally I choose to use the linear method because it is easier for me to classify all the groups and point out the essential points that I should include in my notes.

Happy note-taking everyone! :D

On the second day there.. we went to michael resorts-bogor. It's a very looooooong journey from bogor. 27 km from the town itself! wuowww but the weather is nice it's kinda like a cold breeze in Puncak.

Why do we went there? to visit another best friend of us.. Rena Gracia Sugianto

A journey won't be complete without foods.



Fried banana filled with cheese

rendang

and amazingly delicious home-made shabu sabu :9

In the end, girls should do their chores by washing a pile of dishes



While boys playing wii-football games. It's kinda unfair,huh?

Culture tour at old town

For every sweats that u drop, it's worth it.
For every hard work that u did, there's a prize behind it.

Yes, my besties and I were very happy to hear the good news from our counseling teacher that we got the second place in the wall magazine competition.
Wanna see what it looks like? Hmmm maybe just the draft of our hard work before it's done 

 It's a world education wall magazine and my team got Singapore as our task.

So, here we come old town! Put on your seatbelt and here we go!
4 September 2010 08.00
We gather at school and from there, we ride Trans Jakarta and stopped at the old town station.
Actually there's 4 of us in my team, but 2 of them had the journey 2 months ago. So? who's left is me and ela. and of course Sir Hardi as our counseling teacher.
Unfortunatelly, the safety risk in Trans Jakarta is a bit challenging,so I can't take picture inside it.

First destination everybody, say hello to the train.TUT..TUT..TUT...

Have u ever heard of stasiun Jakarta kota? well, we captured the moment in front of it :)

Next stop: museum Fatahillah.

What is so famous about Indonesia? It's WAYANG :D

And of course it's money

That has its own history in Museum Bank Indonesia. Take a look at the first apparatus to make money

Ups, Mandiri bank museum is also attractive! Find out how our ancestors TYPE

History and memories last forever for they will never die. Warm hugs and kisses from us at old town!

Life as a puppeter

Have u ever imagined to live a life as a puppeter? An opportunity one full day to live as a puppeter told me deeply about it.

"Chances do not come twice in ur life, so once u see it, make sure u grab it during the journey of ur life."

All black from head to toe. wondering why? Black light puppet.no teeth, no smile, just make sure that u r unseen by the others.

Puppets on both of your hands? Believe me, it's not as nice as u imagine.

But once you see the audiences smile,

Or laugh.. :D

And even put their hands up

Then u'll know that ur sacrification is worth it.

Cheers from the amazing crew!

XOXO,

Just a litttle thing called poem

Overcrowded Population

Let us see around

Either it is a developed country or a developing one

All of them look the same

Constant, no emotion, repeated actions...

Overcrowded population and overcrowded population

Makes people think that they will enjoy constant lives

Then, what will we do?

The answer is obvious

Live life to the fullest and enjoy every single moment that you have

Can you guess which town I described above?

Yes,everyone it's Jakarta

Butterfly Fly Away-Miley Cyrus

You tucked me in, turned out the light

Kept me safe and sound at night
Little girls depend on things like that

Brushed my teeth and combed my hair
Had to drive me everywhere
You were always there when I looked back

You had to do it all alone
Make a living, make a home
Must have been as hard as it could be

And when I couldn't sleep at night
Scared things wouldn't turn out right
You would hold my hand and sing to me

Caterpillar in the tree
How you wonder who you'll be
Can't go far but you can always dream

Wish you may and wish you might
Don't you worry, hold on tight
I promise you there will come a day
Butterfly fly away

Butterfly fly away, butterfly fly away
Flap your wings now you can't stay
Take those dreams and make them all come true

Butterfly fly away, butterfly fly away
We've been waiting for this day
All along and knowing just what to do
Butterfly, butterfly, butterfly, butterfly fly away

Butterfly fly away
Butterfly fly away
© WALT DISNEY MUSIC COMPANY;

There are so many great songs in this world. They contain various lyrics and themes,such as:hope,love,peace and so many more. I really adore one of Miley Cyrus' songs which titled: "Butterfly Fly Away." Actually, she dedicated that song to her father. She really appreciates the works that her father had done to her, taught her in her life as a single parent. For me, this song really touches my heart because it tells about important roles of people in my life.

It inspires me of how the important people surrounds me such as my parents, my families, my friends and teachers have thought me from the beginning, that is as a "caterpillar." But as time goes by, I grew up by love to reach my dreams as a "butterfly" that flies away.

Bravo to both of u, Miley and Billy Ray Cyrus. <3

Music in me.Me in music

Have u ever heard "guzheng"? It's ok if this is the first time to hear or to read it bcs it's not an English term anyway :) Let me introduce u to a unique chinese musical instrument:

• "Gu" 古 means ancient
• "zheng" 箏 means zither

If u combine those words u might get confused. ancient zither? how does it look like?

Now u got my point? yes,it's a chinese harp.

I started to play Guzheng when I was 14 and at that time I joined the "Panda Guzheng Group"

Sadly, time flees so fast and I decided to get out from that group when I entered the first year of my senior high school.

What about now?

"If u love Guzheng, keep it in ur mind. Take it wherever and whenever u go in ur journey of life. Simply play it in ur spare times bcs Guzheng will never die. It's unique and  it gives u a sense of belonging in far far away country, China." 

 

This picture is taken on 12th January 2010 in my church "GKI Puri Indah" to celebrate the uniqueness of eastern countries. Look how I blend in with the guitar and piano?

symphony of friendship

Pls explain to me the term of friendship:

• The tendency to desire what is best for the other
• Sympathy and empathy
• Mutual understanding and compassion

True,true. but let's keep it simple.

Let me introduce u to 2 of my dearest friends:

Wella "german Sheperd" and Bestow "Rough Collie"

• Wella is a female German sheperd which is very active and her hobby is playing catch ball nice and cute and Smart!She loves to run in the field and not affraid of strangers.she's a lovely one
• Bestow is a male rough collie, a little bit shy, but he is very cute, loves to run and play catch ball with me. *He will go straight to me if  I clap my hand calling him but when others clap their hands... he will come and watch, and realized that the person is not me and then go away*

Do not believe with the last statement about Bestow? well,take a look at the bond we've made each other :)

 See? thx God I can have him as my dog.

XOXO,
