My culture

If we have to choose one of the interesting cultures in our country, I think that is a hard choosen, because we have a lot of kinds of culture in each culture, from Sabang until Merauke. One of the unique cultures in our country is Batakness tradition. Batakness known as the tribal who have strong tradition. They think that tradition has to keep everytime. I appreciate it because I am one of them. One kind of the example of Batakness tradition is Funeral Ceremony. A little bit make me confuse is in this ceremony, the family who lose their relative have to sit around him or corpse to accept the situation itself. After that, the family have to dancing and singing around the corpse. Can you imagine, when our family died, we were forced to dance and sing?? But, we can not judge it as the bad thing, because this is their culture. Actually, the purpose of this tradition is we have to be patient to accept everything that happen in our life even when we lose our close family and always be thankful.

Learning Review

Do you know about Review Essay?
This morning, I learnt about that. When I and two of my Friends made the power point of that, because we should present the material of the topic, we had to read many materials. I got confused, but my friends helped me to learnt it.
When we presented the material, I just read the point of material. Actually, I should explain it clearly for all of the friends in the classroom, but honestly, I did not really understand..^-^
After we finished present the topic, my lecturer explained again about the review essay. Finally, I could understand more about it.
One of the purpose of review essay is to critique an art work and summarize the something that has publication. In language features, review essay use attitudinal lexis and metaphorical. We can integrate the past tense or present tense.
I think the review essay is interesting to increase our written.
Enough for today..

My experience

This is my first time to fill my new blog.
I don't know, what should I have to write.
But, because I am a student, something that related to education is possible.
For example about the internet. I learn about the internet in Senior High School.
When my teacher explained the theory of internet, I got a little bit bored in the class.
I thought, many people in our country that can not use the internet well.
But, after I tried to apply the theory, internet is something interesting.

And now, I can not avoid the internet from my life.
