My Banana Creation

Pisang.. semua orang pasti tidak asing dengan buah yang satu ini. Pisang selain bisa dimakan, juga bisa dijadiin sumber inspirasi loh. Kali ini gue mau tunjukkin kreasi dari buah pisang buatan gue. Hahaha. Sebenarnya sih ini tugas seni budaya gue sebelumnya yang udah lama banget. Tapi baru sempet post sekarang. Nah kira-kira pisang bisa dikreasikan seperti apa ya? 

Cover yang cukup simple..

Ini apa ya? Cicak atau kadal? Hahaha

Sofanya terlihat empuk! Rasanya pengen banget duduk disitu..

Ada burung hantu diatas gedung! Burung hantunya lembur tuh :p

Sepertinya asik ya meluncur di perosotan pisang..

Kasihan ya anjingnya, lagi ngelirik pisang tapi ragu memakannya karena lingkungan yang kotor :(

Ada yang jual ga ya lilin seperti ini?

Terlihat seperti mau terbang, tapi sebenarnya ini abis berenang, cape tuh keliatan dari mukanya (?)

Ini favorite gue. Lucu banget monyetnya ><
Lagi santai..
Transportasi ramah lingkungan :)

Nah, bagaimana pendapat kalian? Unik bukan? Gue juga ga nyangka dari buah yang terbilang sederhana tetapi memiliki kadar protein dan vitamin yang sangat baik untuk kesehatan tubuh kita, bisa dibentuk-bentuk menjadi kreasi yang begitu unik. Mau coba meng-kreasikan dari buah yang lain? Hahaha :D

MATURITY

What's on your mind when you hear a word 'maturity'? People in average will say that maturity is owned by old people such as parents, teachers, or teenagers who are the age above 17. They say that because they didn't think first that there are differences between becoming mature or just getting older. For me, maturity does not automatically happened by the person. It depends on the people's mindset. So, my own definition of maturity is the ability to control anger and settle differences without violation or distruction, perseverance, sweating out a project in spite of opposition and discouraging setbacks.


The first definition of maturity is the ability to control anger and settle differences without violation or destruction. What does it mean? The word 'control anger' has a deep meaning. The one that I can tell is people should control their emotions in every way. For example, as a student in my class, I always have different way of thinking, especially in solving some questions about Mathematics. When the teacher told us the way to solve the question, I have different opinion from him and I think he got the false answer in solving it. Then, I told about my opinion to my friend and she thought the same as me. After that I asked my friend to discuss it with our teacher personally. Finally, we got the problem solving without violation or destruction. That's a simple example from my experience. You can control your emotion when you got different opinions with other people.

The second definition of maturity is the ability to sweat out a project. The words 'sweating out' has the same meaning with the words 'go on'. No matter how hard the situation is, you must persevere. You must struggle in this life to reach your goal. People in average usually give up when they have set backs in accomplishing a mission. It's a bad habit. You must keep going on eventhough there are many oppositions. It's important because if you have already reached your goal, you will be in your paroxysm of joy.

In short, maturity is an important thing in our life. Maturity is the ability to control anger and settle differences without violation or destruction; maturity is also perseverance, sweating out a project in spite of opposition and discouraging setback. Well, I think that's all about my own definition of maturity. I hope it can give many adventages to people who read it. :')

INSTANT NOT ALWAYS BAD

Mamofuku Ando is a Japanese born in Taiwan in 1911. Orphaned at three years old, Ando had to help his grandmother to make a living. Not only did he help run the shop, he also had to cook for himself and his grandmother. And you know what? For a child of his age, he was really a good cook!
In 1956, Japan was suffering from a food crisis and received a donation of an abundance of wheat from the American government. People were encouraged to consume bread instead of rice. Since an increasing number of people in his neighborhood ate noodles made of rice, it crossed Ando's mind to create noodles made of wheat instead. He believed this product would become very popular since most Japanese are passionate about noodles. He decided to make an unusual kind of noodles: not only yummy, but also easy and quick to serve and available everywhere.
He proceeded to experiment with this novel product in his own home: the process is for sure much different from the making of ordinary noodles. The result? His noodles were sold out on the very first day they were introduced in a supermarket. And to make a long story short, this kind of noodles has been in great demand ever since.
Do you know what noodles I'm talking about? It's instant noodles!


food that people now can't do without, especially in time of emergency or disaster: earthquake, tsunami, flood, etc. Don't you think it's more practical to donate instant noodles than rice to the victims of a disaster, because they have a longer shelf life and are quick to serve?
Well, that's a very brief story about how instant noodles came into being =)
