SPORTS ARE FUN AND HEALTHY! June 2, 2007
SPORTS are FUN and HEALTHY!
Everybody always wants to stay healthy all their lives. How can we achieve that?
Besides eating well (a healthy diet) and stay away from stress, doing sport is also a way to maintain our health. We can maintain a healthy body weight by being physically active. Do exercise regularly. Experts say that if we do the exercise 30 minutes everyday can boost our energy all day long. So no matter what sport you like, or how busy you are with your work, try to spend some times to do your favorite sport, not just watching them on TV.
Fun and cool…..
Get some information you need to know before choosing an appropriate sport for you. See your doctor and review your health history if necessary. In my experience, the doctor recommended my husband, who had a high cholesterol level and overweight body, to start his exercise by walking or slow running on a treadmill to strengthen the cardiovascular. I read in a health journal that walking not only will burn fat but also lower your cholesterol level and improve your mental health (I sound like an expert, hah?! Hehehe..I just read it).
Swimming is my favorite sport, I absolutely love swimming. It is a “low impact” sport (it means we are less likely to get injured) and yet it can give you the feeling of relaxation ; like Yoga. Because I love swimming so much, I’ve never bored doing it, moreover I’ve found that swimming is a really fun thing to do especially when we do it with family and friends. I swim at least three times a week and I intend to keep doing it because I’ve known and felt the benefits and advantages of swimming for the healthy of my body and my mind.
Adhe and her coach…
In my opinion, the cheapest and easiest sport is walking. Walking requires no special equipment or location, no rules, just a pair of sport shoes. Walk whenever you can, you can walk around your house or take the stairs instead of the elevator.
Experts say by doing sport regularly can increase your body to use oxygen more effectively. It’s never too late to begin an exercise program. So get up and do your favorite sport to make your life healthier. Don’t wait until you get sick. Prevention is better than cure, do you agree?

Creativity for a Pocket of Coins May 18, 2007
For years, I had known only one kind of street entertainer in public transportation, that is people who sang to get coins from passengers. Some of them sang only using vocal without any instruments. Some of them sang very professionally. They equipped themselves with musical instruments such as guitar, drum, harmonica, and even portable piano.
Several years ago, when I moved to Jakarta, I realized that there were more than one kind of street entertainer. In Jakarta’s buses or trains, I often met people who read poem to get coins instead of singing. They claimed they wrote the poem by themselves. In my opinion, some of their poems were amazing. Sometimes, I recorded their poem with my recorder (I usually brought my recorder wherever I went to). What made me amazed was the way they chose diction. I didn’t know their education degree but I guessed they graduated only from senior high school. For people at their level, I was sure they wrote the poem seriously. Their poem seemed to be written in hunger and anger.
Several months ago, in a public bus, I met another kind of street entertainer who did illusion show instead of singing or reading poem. In another chance, I also met a street entertainer who delivered a speech like Moslem sermon in a mosque. Very creative. He read Koran verses before he passed around his coin bag.
And just two weeks ago, when I left for PPBUI in the first day class of GE-9, I met one more kind of street entertainer. He read a short story that claimed to be written by himself. Once again, I was amazed. Although this time I didn’t record it, I was still be able to conclude they wrote the short story seriously. It talked about God, fate, human, and life. “Do you still believe in God’s justice?” said the main character in the short story who always got bad destiny whatever he did.
It seemed to talk about their own life.

CHAPTER 2: USING MODAL “CAN” May 16, 2007
One week after a surgery, a patient asked to the doctor,
Patient : Doctor, can I play piano now?
Doctor : Of course.
Patient : Thanks. But are you sure because I couldn’t play it before?
CHAPTER 1: HISTORY OF LANGUAGES May 16, 2007
For millions of years, mankind lived just like the animals. Then something happened that unleashed the power of our imagination. We learned to talk.
It doesn’t have to be like this. All we need to do is make sure we keep talking (:blogging). [Stephen Hawking]
