How to Apply a Simple Make-Up

Every girl wants to look beautiful with a perfect make-up but natural one. If you want to look like that, you can follow these steps. The first step is to clean your face with a facial foam and swap it with the soft towel. Next, swap your face with a milk cleanser and face toner to make your face perfectly clean. Then apply a foundation evenly on your face to cover the black spot or pimple scare and make your face smooth. After that, dab your face with a face powder smoothly. Now it is time for you to swap your eyelids with a combination of sweet pink and baby blue eye shadow. Next, apply an eyeliner on your eyelids. The next step is to apply a black mascara on your eyelashes to make it thicker. Then if you have thick eyebrows, you do not need to use an eyebrow pencil. But if you have thin eyebrows, you need to use the eyebrow pencil. After that, to make your cheeks fresher, you can swap it with a pink blush-on. For the last touch, you can apply a pink lipstick on your lips. Finally, you can reflect your face in the mirror and see how beautiful you are.

My mom

One of my favorite persons in this world is my mom. She is a nice person. Like other mothers, she has a nice personality. She is friendly to her children, so we are not afraid to tell our problems to her. She often gives us a wise solution to solve our problems. She never hides us anything. She tells us everything that she knows. However, what I like from her most is that she is patient. She is hardly ever angry to her children especially me, but when we do something wrong, she punishes us with her own way like cutting our pocket money. She is also strong because most of the time she does the house chores by herself. I love her because she is independent and strong. She is a mom and also a teacher for her children.

A family restaurant

When I was 19, I worked in a restaurant. It is a family restaurant in the middle of my home town. This restaurant is divided into two parts; the kitchen and the dining area. The kitchen is a busy place. It looks like a market because you can smell spices and hear so many noises. It is a chaotic place especially in dinner time. Even though it is chaotic, I always love being there, because I can see my colleagues working using a set of stoves which installed against the wall, operating a huge oven next to the stoves to bake the meals, mixing some ingredients to make delicious drink. But what makes me happy to be there is the storage room. This room is a place where we put the raw ingredients (except the meat and fish). It is like a room full of treasures, because we put jars of spices side by side on huge furnished wooden shelves. Under the shelves there are wooden crates full of vegetables, fruits, and canned food. I love the smell and I love the warmth. It is a heaven for me. The other part is the dining area. This is where I work. There are two pickup counters in front of the oval salad bar. The cashier is on the left side of one of the pickup counters and right in front of the cashier, there is a long wooden chair for waiting the take-out orders. For those who would like to have dine-in dinner, they can sit either in smoking area which located on the right side of the salad bar or the spacious and comfortable non smoking area which takes place half of the dining area. Many families come to this restaurant because of not only the environment, but also the delicious meals that we served. It is a famous restaurant in the town.

My sister

On my age now, as I get more mature I realize that I have someone who always stands beside me, she is my only sister. Her name is Vieka. On her age of 25 years she becomes an independent woman. I really admire her for her spirit. She does not give up and keep on trying if she has problems. She never asks for help to someone if the problems are easy to solve. But if it is really hard to solve she will ask help to someone. The other thing that makes me admire her, she never ask anything to our parents. She always supports her life by her self since she has a job. Actually she is a hard worker. She never delays her work. She will do her work completely and I never know her to complain about her job. She is my best teacher, someone who is able to guide my life. I thank God that  I have a sister like her.

You can see it from the wall colour. In the right side of my room there is a big frame of my friends and me hung on the wall. Under it there is my bed, there are a blanket, a bolster, two pillows, and my lovely pig doll. I choose green bed cover with animal motif because I want to match it with the wall’s colour. If you sleep on  my bed, I am sure you will not wake up soon, because the bed is so comfortable. Beside my bed, you can see a big window with a green curtain that looks so chic. I really like to open the window in the morning because the beautiful sun shine enters my room and fresh air makes my room perfect like my little heaven.

Spending Your Free Times

There are many ways people spend their free times or just to be relax. What I usually do is just to make sure you are done with your tasks, any kind of tasks. Making sure of them are very important because you do not want anything "heavy" in your mind. Once you have make sure everything is done, just make yourself a glass of coffee or any kind of drink you like. Snacks are not necessary for this but if you think the other way, then you should have the snacks. Then make yourself comfortable by sitting on a chair or just on a floor with a table to put your drink on it. Your surrounding is very important too, make sure you are in the cleanest or maybe just fresh place with a fresh air. As for, since I like to smoke, I would make sure I have enough pack of cigarettes in hand just so that you will not have to get up from your sit and look for cigarettes. You need to concentrate on yourself not on something else that is why you have to make sure everything is set.

Spend Your Holiday With Hiking


Most of people like to do the exercise, especially sport. But in this case I am going to explain the extreme sports, such as karate, climbing, hiking, rafting, and caving. Lately, the most popular extreme sports however is hiking. Why hiking ? there are two reasons. First, people say that hiking is more fascinating than the other sports like karate, climbing, hiking, rafting, and caving. Second, it does not need the expensive cost on that and it does not need a lot of equipments. We just need a carrier bag to bring our stuff including mattress and sleeping bag if we are want to camp for one or two nights. Besides, if we want to do the hiking we have to prepare our physic and mental. So we are prepared for the worst thing. Hiking is a such a good idea if you want to spend your holiday and I promise it will full of atmosphere.

Nina Andiastari

It has been for three years and a half that she and I have made such a wonderful relationsip. First time I saw her, I was amazed, un-denying her beauty and wonderful individual. Her hair laid like the flow of a fine river, slightly or maybe rather smoothly moveable without a doubt. I could see her from the Great Britain, It was one of the most beautiful hair ever grown. I didn't have the fear to look at her amazing face. I thought she was not at a mood of feeling happy, rather like feeling unconcious for the day which had gotten harder. The face was pale but from somewhere I couldn't tell, she woke me up, opened widely my blinded-folded eyes, wandering as if it were lost at my stared. Both eyes roled smoothly and combined with a small but chubby cheeks, made me gone wildly imagining she was mine and brought me some heavenly sight-seeng that last forever. The nose was the last I could recognize its beauty, it filled with a rubbery jelly. One that I would never let go if she were mine, I thought. Those amazing appearances were just what I wanted.

My Hometown

I was born in a local hospital located in a pretty much an outcast village, part of Magetan Regency. At that time, I thought Magetan was a nice-good looking, full of peace and of course a wonderful place. The air was actually suitable for the living things. In fact, there were many trees surrounded, organized like soldiers who were about to march for a ceremony in a war and forever standing with roots full of muscles from west to east of the Regency. These trees were what make the air more suitable for us to live, especially these trees were planted and put aside with such colorful farms plants and fancy-traditional construction of houses. Tons of colorful flowers, many kind of trees were planted with such flavour smell. The stream of river on the side roads, roared but gently flew following the miles, between the farms and houses made the perfect combination of natural environment with the modern construction of houses and roads. These were what made the air very fresh, the pollution were invisible by the beauty and the "Angelness" sight-seeing in the regency of my hometown, Magetan.

How to Take Wudhu

Purifying ourselves from “hadast” and “najis” are some of requisites in a “Saalat”. It is very important for Muslims to have wudhu before they do Saalat. If you are a Muslim, you should have known how to do wudlu well like our prophet, Muhammad SAW did. First, make sure the place is clean. Then make “Niyyah” before you start wudhu by saying, “Nawaituu Wudlu'a Lirof 'il Hadastil Asghori Fardlu Lillahita'ala". Then wash both of hands up to the wrist three times and make sure that water has reached all fingers. Second, take a lot of water onto both of your palms and then rinse your mouth thoroughly three times. Third, clean your nose by sniffing water into it and extract the water from it. You just sniff, be careful not to sniff the water all the way. Repeat the step 3 times. Fourth, wash your face three times from right ear to left ear and from forehead to throat. Fifth, wash your right arm and then your left arm thoroughly, until you reach the elbow three times. Sixth, move the wet fingers and palms over your head from the top of forehead all the way to the back of the head, and back from the back of head to the forehead. Seventh, pass the wet tips of your index fingers into the grooves and holes of both ears and also pass the wet thumbs behind the ears (three times). Finally, wash both feet to the ankles (preferably to the knees). Make sure that water has reached between the toes and back of the feet. It’s preferable to say, "Ash-hadu An Lailahaillah Wa Ash-hadu Anna Muhammadan 'Abduhu Wa Rasulluh".

Bromo Mountain

Bromo Mountain is a heaven of the world, one of the most beautiful places. It is located in Ngadasari village, Sukapura Subdistrict, Probolinggo Regency. It is still very natural. There is no pollution in most areas. The air is still clean and you can feel the air is cool when it comes into your nose, your throat, and your lungs. It is certainly good for us to breathe. We can also see many kinds of vegetables planted by natives, such as cabbage, carrot, potato, corn and many more. Even we can also find many strawberry gardens which are owned by natives on the way to go to Bromo mountain. We can harvest it right away or just buy and take it home. It can make us feel like in our dream land. From Pananjakan we can see sunrise and it is one of the best places in the world for being able to see sunrise. The scenery is certainly very amazing. You can feel like you are in the clouds. There are many visitors going there, willing to feel a cold, awaking in the early morning and taking journey to Pananjakan just to see the wonderful scenery from the top of it. It also has a unique event called Kasada on Kasada month 14-15 (the 10Th month according on Javanese calendar), which is celebrated by natives (Tengger ethnic) to give thanks to God for their harvest by putting many kinds of their harvests on Bromo's crater. It is very exciting event. I think it is rather difficult to find the thanks giving event like Kasada, because it is only held in Bromo. All of those are very interesting and entertaining to refresh our mind from any kind of life problems. That is why it is not wrong for us to call Bromo as a heaven of the world, one of the most beautiful places which is exciting to visit.

My Best Friend


We may be able to have a hundred or a thousand friends, or even more. But there is only one friend who really has loyalty on you if you really think about it, that is best friend. My best friend is my best partner for living my life. His name is Sugeng Gunawan, and I used to call him Sugeng. He is someone who really knows me deeply. He knows the characteristic of me, from the outside and even inside of me. Someone who is able to feel my mood. He knows when I feel happy and when I feel very sad. He is also sad when I look sad, and he is also happy when I feel happy. Someone who knows how to respond any kind of my mood, he knows how to comfort me. Someone who is always there for me. He is there when I am happy and he is also there when I feel facing failure.  Someone who is able to understand me the most. There is no relative between us, but there are many similarities in our characteristics. He is like myself and I am also like himself. The similar characteristics have given an ease for us to be able to understand each other. He is someone who is faithful and always taking care of me. He is a nice person, a friend who is able to share each other, in joy and sorrow. Someone who is always there and always supporting me for reaching what I want. Someone who is able to make me feel comfort if I take life with him and feel easy to fight any kind of life problems. But it is different if I am alone without him, everything seems too difficult to fight. He is my best friend, someone who is able to balance my life. As if he was someone who had been sent by God for completing my life to live.

Variousity in Comics

Everybody loves comic. Children, teenagers, or adults love reading it. But do we know the types ofcomic we read? In general, comic is divided into two groups. The simple one iscomic sheet and the other one is comic book. The comic sheet has only one page. This type usually tells about humor, editorial, or politics. The pictures are always in cartoon or caricature. Usually it contains 3-6 panels or more. Comic sheet commonly found in newspapers or magazines. How about comic book? Comic book is calles as a short story comic. Sometimes it has 32 pages or more. It contains pictures, advertisements, and stories. Comic book is divided into two small groups. The first one is an ordinary comic book. This comis is not too big and not too wide, made of good-quality paper, and the appearance is good. The second is a magazine comic book. It is wider and bigger than the previous one. It contains 48-64 pages or more. In other words, the magazine comic book has longer story than the ordinary comic book. So, since comics are various,we should know well about comics we usually read.

Fashion

Since years, fashion has been a part of lifestyle. People tend to follow the latest fashion trend in order to mingle with society. Even sometimes an individual is judged from their fashion taste, or simply we say, their style. A style represent what kind of person one is and in what kind of group they belong to. How? Well, we can say that someone belongs to the edgy group or others, by looking at their outfits; their shoes, their dress, their hairpiece and so on. For example, if we see someone wearing a pencil skirt, a stripped shirt, a bold belt and a pointed high-heels, we can conclude that the person is a determined person and a perfectionist, and belongs to the career-woman group. Another example, when we see someone wearing layers-by-layers outfit and putting shocking colors on some of their outfits, we can say that the person in an expressive person and loves to do experiments in their style and belongs to Korean fashion style mixed with Japanese style. From those two examples we surely can see that different styles represent different kind of persons and groups.
