Narrative====> PETRUK AND KALIMASADA AMULET

Long time ago, there was a kingdom which named Amarta. Amarta was a big and peaceful kingdom. All people lived happily in Amarta. One of them was Petruk who was a very kind person. He lived in Amarta as a Punakawan. Punakawan was a person who lived in a kingdom as an adviser for a king.

Someday, there was a big problem in Amarta. Kalimasada Amulet was missing so all people were very confused. Petruk knew the person who stole the Amulet. He was Mustakaweni, and then Petruk told it to his lord, Bambang Irawan and Bambang Priyambodo. Kalimasada Amulet was really important for them. All people knew if the Amulet was lost, it would be a big disaster which happened. Therefore, Petruk helped Bambang Irawan and Bambang Priyambodo to get the Amulet from Mustakaweni. They were successful and got the Amulet again. Petruk was believed to keep the Amulet.

Actually, there was a person who wanted to get the Amulet from Petruk. He was Adipati Karna. When he met Petruk, he stabbed Petruk until died by Kris Kyai Jalak. Gandarwa knew about it and he made Petruk alive again. After that, he changed himself to be Duryudana. He helped Petruk to get the Amulet from Adipati Karna and he was successful. He told Petruk to put the Amulet on his head because it would make him stronger. Peruk did what Gandarwa said.

Petruk became a very strong person. He could defeat many people. Therefore, he became a king in Ngrancang Kencana Kingdom whose name Prabu Wel Keduwelbeh. He also changed himself. When Petruk wanted to be crowned, there was a problem. Dwarawati Kingdom didn’t want Prabu Wel Keduwelbeh to be a king because he was very arbitrarily. Kresna, a king of Dwarawati, told Semar to solve it. Semar told Gareng and Bagong to go to Ngrancang Kencana palace to meet Prabu Wel Keduwelbeh.

In Ngrancang Kencana palace, Gareng, Bagong, and Petruk were fighting. They were fighting until they were sweaty. Gareng and Bagong recognized Prabu Wel Keduwelbeh as Petruk by smelling his sweat. Then, they stopped fighting because Petruk was their brother.

They didn’t fight anymore instead they were dancing together. Petruk realized that Gareng and Bagong knew him. Then he ran, but it was late, Gareng and Bagong caught him. Prabu Wel Keduwelbeh became Petruk again. Petruk told that he did it because he wanted to make a king aware. “As a king, he has to pay attention with his people”, he said. Petruk realized that his attitude wasn’t good. He apologized to Pandawa. The kingdom became peaceful again.

RECOUNT ----> A FRIGHTENING NIGHT

Ten years ago, on Sunday, there was riot in my town, Pringsewu. The atmosphere was too cold, although it wasn’t raining. I couldn’t breathe well at that time and my heartbeat ran so fast. I didn’t know what happened with me. I could guess that something bad would happen at that night. Actually, I didn’t know what was a terrific incident would happen. I felt that it would be a frightening night for me.

After I had dinner at seven o’clock, I watched television with my family. The film was so exciting therefore I didn’t want to go sleep early, whereas tomorrow was Monday and I should go to school early for ceremony. My parents told me to go bed, but I said no to them. Then my father persuaded me, he promised that he wanted to tell a fairy tale. I agreed and I went to bed. His story made me slept.

Suddenly, my mother woke me up when I was sleeping. Then I got up and I looked at my watch. Oh My God, it was still midnight, twelve o’clock. So, I was back to my bed again and I wanted to sleep but my mother forbade me. I didn’t know what the reasons. My mother said that we had to save our self. I was so confused. I couldn’t forget it. My mother held my hands and I felt her hands were very cold and trembled. I knew that she was very afraid. She told that it was danger. There were people who wanted to burn our home. In this case, police was the aim. We also included as an object because we lived in a police’s boarding house. My mother worked at police station as a secretary. So, that was why we also the aim and should save our self. I could see her eyes, she was afraid. She told me to wake my brother up. She didn’t want to lose her children. I could feel that she really loved her children. While I was waking my brother up, my mother prepared to evacuate. She saved all documents, such as birth certificate and diploma.

My father went out to find a hideout for us. One hour later, my father came back. He had found a hideout. The hideout was in my neighbour’s house, it wasn’t too far from my house. Then we went to there and hided at there. There were many people who also hided with my family. We turned off all lamps intentionally and always be ready for a critical situation. No one could sleep, we were afraid because we didn’t know what would happen in that situation. I heard a voice, it was so hard and rough, then I went to the window and I looked outside, I saw a police truck. There were so crowded people. They were policemen, called BRIMOB. They made a row, like a bodyguard, they kept us. I felt better and safety so I slept.

I woke up at 9 o’clock. I didn’t go to school because it. Nothing happened last night. I was very happy about it. The condition was really safe so my family and I went back home. We also brought all things that we had evacuated. We arranged it properly at our home.

Finally, a frightening incident didn’t happen. It was just a rumour. There was no victim. Although it was no a terrific incident, it made a frightening situation and unstable condition in my town. It happened for a week. All people couldn’t sleep well for a week. I felt traumatic and I didn’t want to hear a rumour again. It was frightening. We were fortunate because a terrific incident didn’t happen.

My Final Project of Moral Theology

EARTH

A. Why is the matter?

The first think that I know about Earth is its shape, round. Round, it means that there is no end. In the round you can’t find the side, you can’t know where are the first and last lines. You just find that round is symbol of the endless. How about the earth? Does it have no end like its shape? If the answer is ‘yes’, maybe everyone in the world is happy to know it. Unfortunately, the earth isn’t eternal as we wish.

Now, sun is 5 billion years old and it is a half of its age. There is a research about sun that sun will become a big red star then change into ‘planetari nebula’ next 5 billion years. Sun is a prime energy for all people in earth. We can live because there is a sun which always gives us a shine which makes a lot of trees can live and so do we. Then what will happen if sun doesn’t exist again? Our earth will be broken or maybe missed. There is no life in earth. No humans, animals, and no life. What a terrific condition it is!

So, Earth will be broken in the next 5 billion years because the sun doesn’t exist. Do you agree with the statement? I don’t agree. Maybe next 1 million years again earth will be broken. Why? It’s because the manner of human itself. We know that there is much destruction which has happened in our earth. The primary issue is about the climate change. There are a lot of incidents which has happened in the earth, such as tundra melts in Alsaka, an island in Pasific from the part of Tuvalu country is sunk, the barren area are increased in Mongolia, ice layer in Peru is lost, and there are flood and storm in China which make erosion.

B. The problem

What will happen again next time? There are many possibilities. The main problem is the climate change in earth. Now, the climate has changed so make a global warming in the earth. Since 1900, the temperature of earth has increased 0.7 C. We can see there is much destruction which happens because of it. The climate changes more quickly than before. It is caused by people who don’t want aware of earth. Our economy and industry has advanced than before, but people forget to think the effect of the revolution itself, especially the effect of revolution industry.

Since the revolution industry happens, there are many incidents in our earth which make the destruction. It happens because many people don’t want aware of the revolution industry effect, whereas it makes a greenhouse. How can earth exist longer if we are as the inhabitants don’t want aware about it? All people just want to find profit for itself without aware of the effect that will happen in the next time.

There are many vehicles which are used. It makes the emission gas in earth increased then will make the temperature increased also. Trees are the answer to make the emission gas in earth lower. However, trees will produce oxygen and it can absorb the carbon dioxide. Carbon dioxide is one of the elements which make the temperature in earth increased. So, if there are a lot of trees in our earth, it can make the temperature of earth stable. Then we can save the earth from the damaged. Unfortunately, the facts make us disappointed. You can see now, how many trees in the forest now? The trees in the forest decrease so quick, it is because humans itself who don’t want aware about it. The deforestation happens everywhere, it makes the destruction, included for our earth. It cuts back the age of earth. However, Earth is our place to live. If the earth is broken, what will we do? Where will we live? How about our descendants? The problem of the earth is our problem also and it is a big problem for all people in the world who live in earth.

C. The explanation why I concern about earth

There is just one reason why I concern about earth. It is because I’m very apprehensive about the condition of earth in the future. What will happen in earth next time if there are only a few people who concern about it? All people have to realize that earth is our home. We must keep it because all people in the world need earth. They also must realize what we have done now. It will be a cause in the future. Everyone doesn’t want to look their descendants extinct. So, it’s good for us to save earth, not only for us but for our descendants.

Mark Lynas is the author who has written a book, “Hide Tide : The Truth about Our Climate Crisis”. In his book, he explains that if the temperature of the earth is increased, the climate change happens so it can be disasters. He explains about what will happen in the future if the temperature increases.

1. Upsurge 1 C, Arctic will lose the ice in a half year. It will make a terrific storm in South Atlantic and drought in USA.

1. Upsurge 2 C, the ice layer in the Greenland is missed and the surface of the sea is increased 7 meters. Pole bears must do hard to live when the ice layer is missed.

2. Upsurge 3 C, the forest in Amazon will be drought. In Europe, the summer will be very hot than before and then the people from sub tropic area will move to the area which is located near the equator.

3. Upsurge 4 C, the part of Antartic will sink and the temperature in London is 45 in the summer.

4. Upsurge 5 C, the ice in the both poles has melted. The existence near shore will be died.

5. Upsurge 6 C, this is the end of the civilization of humans, 95 % the existence of all creatures will be extinct.

That’s why I concern about the earth. Now, the level of carbon dioxide in the earth is 380 ppm. It means that the upsurge temperature of the earth is between 1 C and 2 C. So, our duty is to make it lower by decrease the carbon dioxide such as, be economical when we use energy, don’t cut the trees but we must plant many trees.

AN AUTHOR ==> My Dream

Since I was in Junior High School, I have liked writing. So, my dream is I want to be an author. When I was in Senior High School, I joined Journalism Extracurricular. It was really exciting for me. Every year, we published 3 magazines. "KHARISMA" was the name. Now, I'm studying in SADAR University in English Education Study Program. Actually, If I will have graduated from here, I want to work in Magazine or Newspaper Company. For me, Writing is a part of my life.

Actually, I like reading too. Everyday, I always browse new news in the internet because I don't have a television in my boarding house. Ehm, if you want to see my written, you can see it in my facebook account. I write it in the note. I don't write it everyday but if I have an inspiration I can write it as fast as plane. Hahahahahahahx. Allay. My friends always ask to me, "Why didn't you choose English Letter?" If they ask that, I just give them smile. It's a good question and smart question. I have thought it before I choose English Education Study Program as my first choice. Becoming an English Teacher isn't my first dream, but it's my second dream.

I want to finish my study just 4 years. Then, if I have money, I will continue my study to get S2. But, I try to get a scholarship to help my parents. Actually, If I don't continue it, I will apply for being an English teacher. Then, I will try to write a book or an article, because I'm teacher so I will focus on education. I really want to help children who don't have money but really want to study. So, I want to vacate my time to help them by teaching them. I hope in the future, education will be cheaper than now. But, maybe it's impossible.

I want to marry not more than 30 years old. I have a dream to go to British an French because I like the scenery of that country. It has a lot of old buildings which very beautiful in artistic. I want to go to Eiffel. But, I am not interested with "BULE", I like Indonesian. Maybe, if I will have married, I want to get my honeymoon in British or French. Hahahahahahahhax.......

I hope it can be true.

BOM!!!! The Unforgettable Experience

Hi friends, nice to meet you again in paragraph writing. Now, I want to tell you about my experience. Actually, this experience happened when I was in Senior High School. For me, this experience was funny and frightening. Why? If you want to know the reason, let me tell my experience.

I was third grade in Senior High School. In this time, my friends and I had different choices to continue our study. It meant that my friends and I went to go to a different university and left our hometown. So, we were separated because that. It was difficult for us to know it because we were very close. Then, we decided to celebrate a small party in Saturday night at my house.

In Saturday noon, my friends and I went to Nia’s house. We were fishing “Gurame” for the party. We got three big fishes. We were very happy with that. My friend, Eka, he got a chicken. We were very surprised about the story that he told to us. He told that the chicken was in his garden. Then, he caught the chicken and killed it. He said that the chicken always made his house dirty. But, he was afraid that someone saw what he had done. We were laughing because it. After that, we went to my house to prepare the party. Actually, my friends and I didn’t know how to cook the fish so we asked my friend’s mother.

At night, we baked fish and chicken together. After that, we ate together in a big plate. It was very disgusting but we were happy to do that. Then, we decided to fire up the fire works. We went to a yard because the fire works was very big and its sound was too loud. So, we did it in a yard. We fired up the fire works, it was wonderful. The fire works was very beautiful. We loved it. But, there was a problem. It was 10 O’clock, people were sleeping. The fire works’ sound was too loud so made them woke up. We heard a person screamed to us, he was angry with us. So, we ran away by motorcycle. There were many people looked us when we passed them. There were people who chased us. We were afraid and rode fast. We decided to go to Eka’s house, it was safe in our opinion because very far from that place.

In the morning, Janu said that the people who lived surrounding the yard thought that it was a sound of BOM. We were laughing. Actually, we afraid if the people knew the fact, people would be angry. For me, it was an unforgettable experience. What naughty children we are!
