          Death Note (デスノート Desu Nōto?) is a series of three live-action Japanese films released in 2006 and based on the Death Note manga and anime series by Tsugumi Ohba and Takeshi Obata. The films primarily center on a university student who decides to rid the world of evil with the help of a supernatural notebook that kills anyone whose name is written in it.

 

          The series is about Light Yagami, an extremely intelligent young man who hates the crime and corruption in the world. His life changed drastically when he discovered a mysterious notebook, known as the "Death Note", lying on the ground. The Death Note's instructions claim that if a human's name is written in it, that person shall die. At first, Light doesn’t believe it. But after knowing that it was real, Light starts to use it. After meeting with the previous owner of the Death Note, a shinigami (Death God) named Ryuk, Light decided to become "the God of the New World" by killing the people whom he believe a criminal.

 

Soon, the number of unpredictable deaths of the criminals catches the attention of the ICPO and a mysterious detective known only as "L". L quickly learns that the serial killer did by the civilian as "Kira" ("Kira" yaken from the Japanese pronunciation of the word "killer"). He also knows that Kira lived in Japan. L also concludes that Kira can kill people without “laying a finger” on them. Light realizes that L will be his greatest enemy, and a game of extremely smart cat and mouse between the two begins.

 

It's no wonder why the live-action movie Death Note, based on the manga (comic), hit so big in Japan cause it’s a fantastic film with a fantastic comic-book like story.

 

          Death Note gives a different horror movie. It's a type of movie that I guess most people could watch and be entertained by it. I found the film to be extremely entertaining and well as I really enjoy all the “bizarre” stuff in it and the cleverness of it. It also has a lot of unpredictable scene.  It might too Japanese at times. The actor and actress of the film also did it good. They acted very well. The film’s effect is also great. Still, you have to “think” cause Death Note” has a strong dialogue. Yet, it stills a great film.

 

          Death Note is an awesome film and you should check it out. So get away from "Hollywood" for a while and watch something brilliant for a change.

ps:the sub doesn't really match. It's a bit different. Sorry ^^

Being a Teen-age Idol: Pleasant or Unpleasant

Hi, guys. Long time since last I visited this blog. now I will discuss about a being an idol in the teen age. It's too common if  I talking about the idol of teenagers, but for this one is very rare to find, especially in Indonesia. Therefore, I will not talk about this issue in this country, but I'll take the example of the Korea. Hopefully it will allow Mr.T ^ ^. Well then let's begin!

In Korea, there's a lot of teens age idol. I can't even believe it. Some of the idol have the lower age than me but they looks older than me and the most envious thing that they are so much taller than me! OK. It is not a big deal but that makes me very envy. Aish. .what I have done. OK let's continue. In Korea, usually the teen-age idols have a very young age such as 16, 17, 18, etc. Young, right? However, it does not matter as long as they still act as their age. The teen-age idols, usually work as a singer. One of my favorite is 2NE1. All of them are multi talented although they still young. And they can sing perfectly whether it's live or not.

And this can't be called as a pro and contra except I mention the pro and contra between being a Teen-age idol. Here we go!

First, they can get their own money. Yeah that's right! They don't have to ask their parent for their pocket money, they just have to ask their manager and fualla money is ready. But it doesn't mean that they can spend it lavishly. It still rare to find teens who can get their own money. I can't even do it TT. I adore them because they can get their own money by they own effort.

Second, they still young. teen have a very high passion and spirit to get something. So, it's very suit to be a role model as long as they aren't do something so embarrassing or inappropriate to their age.

Third, they can get a lot of experience since they'll meet a lot of people from different places. As you know that the more experience we get, the more we know which one is better for us.

But wait, as long as there's a positive thing, there'll be a negative thing too.

Let's take from an easy example. Teens. That means they still a student which means they have to attend their school. It's definitely hard to attend school when we are too tired cause our activities. Can you imagine how busy is they? They have to attend both school and "work". In the school, they have to attend every single lesson and have to do their task or homework. It does not include their job as a public figure. Their terribly dense schedule, time to do exercise, doing a concerts, etc. CAN YOU IMAGINE IT? Me-who don't have a very dense schedule like that- sometimes feels so tired. As a result, I feels sleepy in the school and can't pay attention to the teacher completely. Too bad. I can't imagine how tired they are. It's hard to arrange an ordinary student's schedule especially a very dense schedule. For me that's nearly impossible. 

Second, since they can get their own money and become public figure, it can make them grow arrogant. People say that Korean are a polite person. But it doesn't mean they can't be like that. Cause the most difficult enemy is ourself.

Third-the most terrible think- is because they've become an artist, they can easily get stuck in the "dark web" of artist world. For example narcotic. Not only in our country, but also in the world many people get stuck in that way and hard to escape.

In conclusion, being a teen-age idol is fun. There must be something unpleasant. It's depend on ourselves which one is better. Maybe we think that being a teen-age idol is fun, but some are saying that being a teen-age idol was not fun. Every person has a different thought, depend on the people point of view.

Well, I think that's enough from me. Thanks for you attention. See ya ^^

Earthquake

Earthquake

Hi there. .its has been a long time since I visit this blog. Ahahaha. .as you know, I only use it when I have a task that I have to do. Since Mr. T gave me a brand new task or the first task for this semester, I have to open this blog.

            Anyway, this task talks about kind of disaster. I personally choose earthquake coz this kind of disaster often happens to our lovely country Indonesia 

            Gess, I've done! Stop talking! Okay, I'll tell you more about earthquake. So, scroll it down and enjoy ^^

            Earthquake means shake that happens in the Earth surface (don't worry I've checked it on Wikipedia). As you know guess, the Earth's crust always move and move. And its move cause and earthquake. OMO...

            Simple, right. There's a lot of earthquake. Don't worry, Ill mention its. So comfort your sit and follow me!

            Kind of earthquake:

• Volcanic Earthquake; This kind of earthquake caused by volcanic eruptions. As you know, we lived near volcano. So we can easily feel it (but it doesn't men I really want it to true! I can't imagine what kind of chaos caused by it!)

• Tectonic Earthquake; This kind of earthquake caused by tectonic activity (the same as the name). You know, this kind of earthquake can cause great damage coz it can spread around the world. Just don't imagine it and DON'T EVER HOPE FOR IT! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! Do you still remember earthquake that happened in Yogya? Yeah, that's tectonic earthquake.
• 
  • Impact Earthquake; This kind of earthquake cased by meteor impact or asteroid. So, it's rarely happen in the Earth. Maybe this reason why dinosaurs disappear.
  • Detritus Earthquake (I'm not sure about its name ); its usually happen in the lime area. It's rarely happens and its local.
  • Synthetic earthquake (I'm not sure about its name (again)); its human cause. It's our fault! Hahaha just kidding. Actually not all of us. Just little people, generally a scientist or military. For example nuclear experiment or bomb.

  Since I tell you about kind of earthquake, I'll tell on how to survive from earthquake. Prepare your note and get ready!

              Most of us will choose to hide under a desk. DON'T EVER DO IT! ONCE AGAIN DON'T EVER DO IT! So, how to take over from it? This method called live triangle (not sure again T_T, so sorry for this inconvenient ) 

Of course you can understand it easily from the picture. No? Okay, I'll tell you. It's simple but work. The only thing that we have to do just hide under the detritus that fall over furniture or another things that make space beside. Bingo, we can hide in this space. The less shattered it, the more we can safe in this kind of situation. That way 100% proved can make us survive from earthquake and 100% WORK! Horay, so we don't have to worry about it anymore. Nice 

      Coz I'm a kind heart girl ,I'll tell you another tips (not good to praise our self. Don't try this at home):

1.      Don't hide under easy broken thing . It just makes you easily die, and you don't want it to happen, right?

2.      Bend over beside a big thing that left a space (live triangle position).

3.      Wood constructed building is the safest place. Why? Coz this kind of building is flexible and moves the same as earthquake movements. Although it ruined, it just caused minor damage.

4.      Roll beside a bed. Don't know how to do the right roll? Ask Fibra, she's an expert. Trust me! If we hide under the bed, it left a space that makes us survive (remember live triangle).

5.      Trapped? Don't know the exit. Don't worry we have the best solution for you. Just die! kya. . . .  Hahaha, just kidding. Bend over a chair or strong thing (live triangle).

6.      Don't hide behind a door . It'll fall over you and you'll easily torn apart.

7.      Don't ever run through a stairs . Just don't ever do it!

8.      Stand near the outer wall. The far our distant to the outer wall, the less our live possibility.

9.      Avoid bridge and high building. It'll fall over your body. A lot of people will safe their live by driving to the other place. But when they reach a bridge, they'll die by it ruin. It's better if we stand near our car and bend over it. Car in general left 1 meter space. Exception for the car that struck down by a bridge directly.

10.       Hide over a paper stack. Paper won't be solidified.

      Huah. .I thinks that's enough. It's 7.15 p.m. I have to study since I'm a twelve grade student . I hope I can pass UN and UM easily . Hope for me guess. I order you  Hahaha. . Just kidding. Okay guess, it's time for me to study while listening to music. Live never this good . Mr. T, I'll wait your comment patiently. Okay, it's time to leave. Bye. .
