Things that I bought because of advertisement

-       I think there is a thing that I bought because of their advertisement, and maybe all of people have done that too. The things that I bought because of advertisement is a toys, it is because the way they show how the toys working in the television is very interesting. It makes me wonder if the toys are really can work like that. Besides that, the advertisement is really convincing and made me want to own it. I really easy to get influenced by the advertisement because of my young age, it is because I’m just 10 years old back then. Besides that, I also have bought a food because of their advertisement, and of course it is a fast food. But, the food that I bought didn’t disappoint me, because for me fast food is still good to eat.   

The Magical Forest

            Before I’m forgotten, I’m not the only one that lost in the magical forest, my other 2 friend also with me that time. Before we were transferred to the magical forest, we were playing hide and seek, but at the moment we start to play something strange happen to us which is make us feel very dizzy. After we open our eyes, we were at somewhere else that we never imagine before, but at that moment we were lost in different places. I try to find them and the way out of the forest but when I realized it is the same path that I walk for about 30 minutes. I try to calm myself so that I will never scare in this situation, because when we are panic it could lead us to a bad thing. After that, I saw a light in distant which is made me wonder what that was, and from that moment I meet Odin. He helps me to find the way out of the magical forest. In our journey to find the way out, I saw many weird things such as a butterfly with the wings of light, a speaking tree, and even singing plants. All of the weird things that I saw also have a huge size which is made me feel so little in the forest. After we walk nearly about 2 hours we bumped with an old woman, which is I taught that she also lost in the magical forest. I brave myself and ask her weather she had found a way out of the jungle, but when the old woman face us she make me scared for the first time. It is because, her looked was so creepy with a sharp looking in her eyes, but actually she is so kind and has a sense of humour. The old woman told Odin to lead me just straight on the path at her back if I want to leave this place, after we have some nice conversation with her we start our journey back. After we passed the old woman, she suddenly disappears and once again gives me a goose bump. Not long after that, I found the way out of the magical forest, Odin say if I want to go back I need to close my eyes three times. At the third time I open my eyes I found that all my friends were there at the background of my house, they said they were just transferred not far away from my house and not like me. It makes me wonder how long that I’ve been lost, because at that moment it was about 6 p.m. and make me feel like it just a dream. But, I think that was the best journey that I had in the magical forest.

Miley Cyrus-The Climb

I can almost see it

That dream I am dreaming

But there's a voice inside my head saying

"You'll never reach it"

Every step I'm taking

Every move I make feels

Lost with no direction

My faith is shaking

But I gotta keep trying

Gotta keep my head held high

There's always gonna be another mountain

I'm always gonna wanna make it move

Always gonna be a uphill battle

Sometimes I'm gonna have to lose

Ain't about how fast I get there

Ain't about what's waiting on the other side

It's the climb

The struggles I'm facing

The chances I'm taking

Sometimes might knock me down

But no, I'm not breaking

                                                                                                 

I may not know it

But these are the moments that

I'm gonna remember most, yeah

Just gotta keep going

And I, I got to be strong

Just keep pushing on

'Cause there's always gonna be another mountain

I'm always gonna wanna make it move

Always gonna be a uphill battle

Sometimes I'm gonna have to lose

Ain't about how fast I get there

Ain't about what's waiting on the other side

It's the climb, yeah!

There's always gonna be another mountain

I'm always gonna wanna make it move

Always gonna be an uphill battle

Somebody's gonna have to lose

Ain't about how fast I get there

Ain't about what's waiting on the other side

It's the climb, yeah!

Keep on moving, keep climbing

Keep the faith, baby

It's all about, it's all about the climb

Keep the faith, keep your faith, whoa

Why the song (The Climb) is relevant to my life.

• This song is about the struggle of someone to get what they want. The lyric show that they will try hardly as they can to achieve their dream. I think this song is so related to me from the way I live my life before. It is because, everything that I try to do before was always become a failure especially in my high school day, but not all of it. Besides that, there is some time I thought that my dream become so dark and make me feel that I can’t achieve it any more. But, when I think back why that I always get a bad result and bad marks, it aware me that it is because I don’t have enough effort and self confidence. Because of it, I always think that there is no need for me to study more hardly, because it is seem like the bad thought has been set in my brain that I will always get a failure. But then, when I think I can make some change in my result, it  make me try as hard as I can to improve myself especially about my future. That’s why, at the same point I manage to improve my marks in some subjects because of the improvement that I made. The changing that I made is not because of the mark itself, it is also because of my future that I will face. Besides that, my family especially my parent is my first reason that makes me wants to improve myself. That’s why, from that moment I will try to make something as perfect as I can, same like the lyric it show the person will never give up when it is about their dream.

“A picture speaks a thousand words”

This is an idiom, for me it’s about something that we can describe even it’s just about a one thing or a picture. But, the true meaning of this idiom is about a picture that can tell us a story. I’m agreeing with this idiom, because when there is a picture that we see, we must have a feeling to know what that painting is about. In that situation, we can create a thousand of questions in our mind, with that we can guess many kind of story about that painting. We also can use this idiom in our daily life, which is when we saw someone with a poor appearance we can say that he/she had a hard day in their life, that’s mean even a man kind have a relation with this idiom. So, that’s why I’m agree with this idiom because this idiom can lead me to think more than I want especially about something that is new in my life. Besides that, this idiom is teaching me to explore something on why it is become like that and it’s also train me to use my brain function more than usually. Why it is, because when I can’t get what actually that I want, it lead me to try another solution that can solve my problems. That’s why this idiom “a picture speaks a thousand words” is so meaningful to many people including me.
