social circle

the social circle is a huge factor in our lives first in the education factor also in our everyday life. this is because the people we spend most of our time with will be a huge factor on building our characteristic this can also tamper our previous characteristics because of the influence that they give to us.

example: a boy who hates going to parties and drinking moves schools and hangs out with the people who like to drink and go to parties. because of this he gets influenced by these people.

for example in the words we say to elders and to people our age

elders: Hello, how are you? Do you know where the bathroom is located?

other: HEEY WAZZZAAAP?!?!?! WHERE THE HELL IS THE TOILET???

the language we use is different when we talk to elders and people our age

Gal Gadot attends the 90th Annual Academy Awards at Hollywood & Highland Center on March 4, 2018 in Hollywood, California. Comment by Hilario Salamida: No need for this

She wears glamorous outfit with a necklace on it and put on badass makeup to attend the 90th Annual Academy Award.

She was very stunning and beautiful, but somehow the dress looks like fur carpet from animals and its too long, make her look so short and midget. However, the make-up make it much look older as if 40 years old. Comment by Hilario Salamida: In additionComment by Hilario Salamida: herComment by Hilario Salamida: as if she were 40 yrs old.

Gal Gadot has a perfect body shape, but wearing this dress make her look like flat-chested and straight body shape. Theres some part of the stomach looks like distended.

She looks like an Ostrich ready to race. Once she

accidentally stepped on her dress, then it will have detached. Comment by STUDENT: then feathers will fall one by one and will render the dress a mini.

Mary J. Blige in Versace attends the 90th Annual Academy Awards at Hollywood & Highland Center on March 4, 2018 in Hollywood, California.

She wears plain white dress and carried a small handbag and put on badass makeup to attend the 90th Annual Academy Award.Comment by STUDENT: look at the comments in revision 2

Her outfit such a nasty combination, how come a plain dress can be used with a badass and funky hair style. It looks like combining ice cream with black paper and salt, disgusting.

She shows a bold eye makeup but at the same time she put on pale lipstick on her lips. I think she want to describe a hoodlum who goes to a wedding.

I feel so bad, honestly I dont even like her overall outfit.

Oscar presenter Eiza Gonzalez attends the 90th Annual Academy Awards at Hollywood & Highland Center on March 4, 2018 in Hollywood, California.

She opts yellow as the overall color of her dress. It Doesnt matter of what color she choose, but the models of her clothes are horrible and unsavory. Try to crop this photo from toe up to waist and the result you will imagine a beautiful dress with a sexy woman, but in fact if you see all the photos completely, you will see a woman with sporty dress and prepare to swimming pool.Comment by STUDENT: opted for a yellow..Comment by STUDENT: motiffComment by STUDENT: lowercase!

It was like combining Gucci with Nike, but such a bad result to attended a high class event.Comment by STUDENT: choice

Good work! Keep it up!

Edit work after each edition!

Spicy make it more tasty

November 9, 2018: Al Jabr Islamic School, South Jakarta

Food tasteless without any spicy flavor taste. Maybe for most of people it might be crazy, but for me eating spicy food has an own challenge.

Since 2009 I was seeing my mother made sambal ulek and that was the first time Ive try sambal. My mom never forbade his child to eat sambal or eat spicy food, as long as it is a healthy food and doesnt not cause various diseases. Once in a while I felt diarrhea and stomach acid due to eating spicy for more than a week, and luckily I got sick during school holidays so it didn't interfere with the learning process. After eating guava and stop eating spicy food for a while base on my mom advise, finally recovered from the disease. yes, but after that I still made the same mistake, so repeatedly digestive diseases came again due to me eating spicy hobbies, even almost every day I always bring sauce in my bag for lunch. I love spicy so much.
