Yudi and Rifky

It has been about one year that I have same classes with Yudi and Rifky. Those two people are very common in many ways.

First, if you look at them, right away you will notice that physically they have the same amount of weight. They are kind of fat. Their stomach are both big and their cheeks are chubby. The hands are also big and he neck too. Second, their English are good and perhaps sort of fluent to American English. The way they talk are very easy to understood. The pronunciation is perfect for me. They both use easy words that we, as the second speaker of English, can easily recognize it. In spite of their fluently of speaking English, they like to skip classes whenever they like to. They skip classes many times, especially for the class that they don't like. However, they are actually smart. They answer questions when they are being asked by lectures. They do homework although mostly they just copy the work from friends. Finally, the las thing I recognize from them is that they are at making jokes. Anything that they talk about always make me laugh to death. The way they use and mix English with Bahasa Indonesia is just very good in the use of jokes. Basically they have many similarities and I supposed those similarities are in good ways.

Jupe and Depe have ever been in a controversial gossip because of their seductive style. Jupe got a controversial gossip, her album Kamasutra which has a single titled “ Belah Duren” got a prohibition from MUI because this album got condoms bonus. This news makes Jupe cannot show in same places, such as NTB and Balik Papan. The Minister of Woman’s Empowerment Meulita Hatta said that what Jupe’s did are supporting the free sex. For Depe, because of their her seductive style, she got a sexual abuse from her fanatic fans after her show. Depe then hit the man who grabbed on her body.

Lee Chong Wei and Lin Dan

Who does not know Lee Chong Wei and Lin Dan? Both of them are great badminton players. But, I am not quite sure that you know some similarities between them. First of all, both are badminton players with a lot of achievements. They have ever been in the first rank of badminton players, according to BWF (Badminton World federation). Not only that they have already won some bona fide tournament, such as, All England, Olympic, and World Cup. Probably they are the most brilliant badminton players in this decade. Next, both of them are left-handed. They like to play badminton with their left hand in every tournament rather than with their right hand. They said that their left hand is more powerful to do jumping smash than with their right hand. Therefore, they are well-known with their jumping smash, which is very deadly to their enemies. The last similarity is both of them are down to earth. They donate some money to the Tsunami victims in Japan. Also, recently Lee Chong Wei has donated his money to the autism clinic in Malaysia. He really takes care of children, because he thinks that children are the next generation to lead the world. So, the value that we can learn from both figures are their hard working and big heart which are inspiring many people all over the world.
