How Technology Can Change Your Life


            Technology has at least taken 60% of our life aspects now, and there’s no doubt to that. From industries to house works, there were a lot of things that used to be human-made but now are rapidly replaced with multifunction robots. Technology can at least bring us good effects unless the bad effects affect us more in our life as human beings. Of course technology can help us to be better and faster to produce something, but there were also a lot of people who lost their job simply because theirs are “taken” by the robots. But oh well, since this question is how technology can change my life, I guess I’d better look at how it may have impact me tomorrow.
            Get ready to be awed.
Many of my friends at school have more gadgets then what I have today, but who knows how much it have impact most of them in the irregular way because the more gadgets someone have, it will usually impact their study records due to “more time for gadgets than learning and doing homework at home”. Technology has changed my life by easing the pain of live chatting with my friends after hours of being at school. This way, technology really helps me to communicate and keep in touch with my friends without meeting them to talk about things and even homeworks that the teachers gave us. It can be wilder than what it is today of course; but I barely have any idea of how that is going to happen.
            Technology can change me into a very futuristic person in advance too. The thing is, since I have a lot of homeworks to do, I have got to manage my time table into a very neat and tidy with such reminders. Maybe later on, the futuristic technology can help to remind me every time I need to switch tasks and do something else such eating (since I was so busy doing other things). With the help of technology, I can make the time table of my dreams: all in one package. I can see what I’m going to do in my timeline without having to waste more paper. Why did I mention futuristic? Well, it’s because that I have to really plan everything for more than a day in order to get everything I wanted to do being done in the proper time and order. Finally, it has also made the world felt like it spun faster every day. With technology, somehow we might never get bored.

What Can Lead Us To Failure


            There is a very famous saying by a phenomenal painter in the world that I love to repeat off to myself and remind others that I truly care about. It says: “only put off until tomorrow that you are willing to die having left undone.” That wise saying was said by the one and only Pablo Picasso, one of the world’s best and historical artists in the world. Not only that he have shown us masterpieces of his artwork, but also how he have achieved all his dreams by hard work and pushing aside those things that kept him away from being the best which also means his doubts of failing.
            Laziness is in the top of the failure chart, the worst enemy in which everyone must admit that once in their life; there had been some times that each and every one of us have gone through this moment. Almost everyone that I have found loosing the competition of life is simply because they were lazy over things they tend to do. Their reaction towards laziness was “yeah okay, I’ll do it later” instead of “I’m going to do it now to prevent bad things”. Somehow it is the difference of how your mindset is made up over your goal. Yet, it wasn’t only laziness that causes us to fail. I have personally found almost 10 reasons of why some people did not achieve or get even close to what they dreamed of because of these reasons: LAZINESS, HOLDING THEIRSELVES BACK, LOW SELF ESTEEM, MINDSET, GOAL, TIME MANAGEMENT, DECIDING WHICH TASK IS MORE IMPORTANT AT THE MOMENT, and CHARACTER.
            All of those reasons I have mentioned above actually leads to one thing that is the most crucial part of what everybody have missed when they finally choose to spend their time doing nothing: failure doesn’t end when you fail to fulfill one task you’re meant to do when it actually means to be the start of other following failures in the rest of our life until we manage to take a step backwards and starts fresh. Seriously, that is what usually happens in our lives, especially teenagers these days.
            To me, those are the reasons of what may lead us to failure. Now that I have known that, I do believe that I myself have to move apart of those “bad reasons” just only to give myself another reason to believe that I can achieve my dreams. Even though sometimes failures do help us to be stronger, we don’t have to fall that deep into failures to understand the real meaning of failing.

Songs~


“I Am A Friend Of God”

Who am I that you are mindful of me
That you hear me, when I call

“Ku Kan Terbang”

FIRMAN-MU TUHAN P'LITA BAGI KAKIKU
JANJI-MU TERANG BAGI JALAN-JALANKU
KEBENARAN-MU MENUNTUNKU S'TIAP HARI
KUMENANTIKAN-MU BERI KEKUATAN BARU

My hope is built on nothing less
Than Jesus blood and righteousness
I dare not trust the sweetest frame
But wholly trust in Jesus name (2x)

Reff:
Christ alone; cornerstone
Weak made strong; in the Saviour's love
Through the storm, He is Lord
Lord of all

When Darkness seems to hide His face
I rest on His unchanging grace
In every high and stormy gale
My anchor holds within the veil
My anchor holds within the veil

Reff (3x)

When He shall come with trumpet sound,
Oh, may I then in Him be found;
Dressed in His righteousness alone,
Faultless stand before the throne.

Describe Some Productive Ways Students Can Spend Their Leisure Time


            I love leisure time! Nobody in this world (including students and even grownups) are able to hate having extra leisure times in their weekend or holidays. But well, some of us students didn’t spend our leisure times productively. While I love to write and find my “soul” in it, most of my leisure times are spent on writing – whether I was bored or not. To me, writing has been the way that I use to reflect my feelings as well as storing my endless ideas. Since it is easy to write anywhere and anytime, I can say that I may have almost spent my leisure times less not without writing.
When we all wanted to be “productive” even in our leisure times, it is really important to know what we love to do and to do it anyways. For some reasons, being productive in leisure times are also describing how to spend your free time to give out something to the world through your passion. So the first thing we have to do on how to be productive in our leisure time is to know what we love to do. After that, every time we’ve got some free time, we can do those things we love.
Other things of how students can spend their leisure time productively is by spending it with learning (or reviewing) the studies that we have learnt at school (which was really hard for us to do). This profits us as students after the holidays, because we will still remember what we have learned the past semester rather than just killing our time at home by watching useless TV dramas or playing video games. Besides reviewing school books, students may have also read books or even the bible to learn more about new things. Besides absorbing more informations which makes us look more brilliant than the others, reading mostly helps us to be more efficient in using our time (the book have to be a good book, of course).
There are still a lot of things that students like us can do to produce something in our leisure times. It is now up to us of how we will use it wisely. If I had chosen writing, what would you choose?

What Makes A Person Successful


Successful; it’s a word that everybody wants to achieve when they grow up – or at least on what they are doing right now. Maybe, our teachers wanted all of their students to pass this academic year study; our parents might dream of seeing their children graduate off high school and transfer to the best universities in the world with scholarship; or maybe some public workers are dying to get a better-paid job. In the context of students today, we surely want to achieve something in the end of a year study and so the school taught us to make a life list of what we wanted to achieve this academic year and review what we have done in the end of every semester study.
As to me personally, I have accomplished for not less than 5 out of the 25 life-list I have written about 6 months ago back at the beginning of the academic year. What I have achieve is another question to be answered next time, but now it is about my secret of what makes me successful in achieving those successes in the past few months.
I have 3 major secrets of how I was successful in and out of my life-list. Number one: PRAY. It is the first and the most crucial aspect when you want to achieve something. I do believe that if what we pray for is also what God have wanted to give us, then it is not impossible that we might gain that dream with His favor. Number two: WORK HARD. Without hard work, our dream is only going to stay as a dream. No one will notice us or even know what we’re up to if we never fight to be a successful person. In other words, being lazy is never an option. Number three: REVIEW. If we have done some things but in the end we never review ourselves back on what we did and check our life lists in the beginning of the year (or semester), how are we going to know if we have been successful in the past year?
To me, accomplishing even ONE thing is already a success, because that means that I have achieve something and my year isn’t that wasted by doing nothing. My next question would be on how I would keep consistent in achieving what I have achieved.
