Reflection

1. My interest in learning English especially in writing is writing a story. I love writing my idea in paper or type it in writing story apps, for example wattpad, storial, etc. I boost my vocabulary by writing a story. Whenever I want to write a certain word and I don’t know what is the English of that word, I will curious to search the English of that word. Therefor it easier for me to memorize the words.
I prefer write something based on my imagination than write anything else. I love to write a fantasy novel. I already started to write a novel, but my only problem is lazy. Sometimes when I feel like my brain full of idea but in other side my body is too lazy just to write or type it somewhere. So it is still to be a dilemma for me.
2. According to me, Project Based Learning is quite exciting. I enjoy the projects and it make me try something that I never try before, for example sending a postcard. And the project is simple and flexible too. So when I doing it, what I feel is just enjoy. Fells like I did the projects based on my own desire not by it is an assignments.
And by using blog, it is recall my old blog from its hibernation. I don’t open my blog since I was in Junior High School. I surprised when I opened back my blog and found my old diary on it. I read every single sentences and laughed for almost every minutes. By this Project Based Learning it is raise my motivation to continue my diary or post anything else on my blog because I want to record the memories of my life. And who knows if I get bored again of blog I will feel a little surprise again when I open it back.
3. The advantages of doing Project Based Learning is first, it made me had a new friend from abroad. It was from chatting with native speaker project. The project was not only made me understand about informal chat, but it is also increase my knowledge about my new abroad friend’s country (Japan) especially about their culture. The project was fun and who knows that chatting also can be used to fulfil an assignment.
The second advantages is by writing email project I get a lot of information out there about scholarships, student exchange program and competitions. Previously I thought that I would search that’s kind of information when I’m in second or third semester. Because as far I know usually the requirement need third semester mark. But then I realize that it’s better if I start to complete the requirements from now. Thanks for email writing project for make me understand how write an email correctly and make me prepare my requirements to apply for a scholarship earlier.
The third advantage I got was from vlog script project which is the last but not least project in the semester. I can say that this is my favourite project because I love making a vlog and this project make me try something new. I never do script before I record my vlog previously, but after this project I think make a script is not a bad idea because the script make the concept in my brain seems clearer.
4. The challenges in doing Project Based Learning are found by me in my first project, my second project and my last project. In my first project which is formal chat, Ms Devi asked me to sent a formal message with correct grammar, punctuation and etc. Because it is my first time I was a little bit confuse to write the message. After I tried and sent my formal message to Ms.Devi the result was I had to revise my message because of my punctuation was not correct. After I tried once again finally I could fulfill my first project correctly.
            My second challenge in doing Project Based Learning was in my second project which is Informal chat or chatting foreigner. Backthen I had some friends from India, china and US. But I can't contact all of them so I had to find another person. Finally I found a person via instagram, she is from Japan and luckily she answered my direct message although her follower already so much. Our chat was so good and finally I could fulfill my second project. The challenge was only to find another new person who I never know before.
            My last challenge in doing this Project Based Learning was in my last project which is vlog script project. This kind of project was really new for me and I don't know about how to write it correctly before,. especially about the punctuation. But then after I saw the example from Ms. Devi, I became more understand and my project already done right now. But the problem is I don't know the result and I just posted it in my blog.
5.       My impression to Ms. Devi is she is one of my lecture who are not out of date. I mean her style in teaching us is really match us as millenias. That's why projects from her are so in to us and personally I enjoyed every project from Ms. Devi. And Ms. Devi also veru friendly and what I like her the most when she is not angry when our project are not posted yet or when we do not do feedbacking yet.
          Ms. Devi never blame us but she always give us advice in friendly way. The way she explain the material also simple and understandable. I know the theory from her, but with the project I to be more understand. I like it too when Ms. Desi provide such a simple and clear examples. Because examples is important to show how is the comcept. Overall I have no problem with the way Ms. Devi teach us.
6.        My overall impression towards this Project Based Learning is this project are enjoyable. According to me, the projects were friendly, not too hard and it was not too easy. From this projects I learn a lot of things about writing. Therefor I think this projects are success for myself.
           About whether I will continue my blog or not, I think I will continue it but with no certain time to post. I will post somehing that really match my interest. But my frequency of posting will not too often. At least I'm not abandon my blog for the second time.

So here is the hamsters guys. - They are so cute aren’t they? - So, the first thing if you want to buy a hamster is ask the seller what type of hamster do you want to buy. - It’s important since each type need different way to care. - And the second thing is - make sure the hamster you choose is healthy. - Choose an active hamster and the one that doesn't look like has a wet rear end or watery eyes. - And for me - I think I will buy this one and this one -  because first, they are active. - Second, No wet rear.

4. INT. PET SHOP, CAGES AND SUPPLIES RACKS - MORNING

There are many hamster cage options available online and at pet stores. - But some cages are better than others of course. - Several cages, -  for instance, -  the ones with all the tubes and running wheel may look cool but aren't very functional and are difficult to clean. - And a fish tank isn't a good choice for hamsters to live in due to a lack of appropriate ventilation. - You also have to take into consideration  that each hamster types have different cage needs. - So Regardless of what kind of hamster you choose, - it's a good idea to get your hamster cage all set up with bedding, a water bottle, a running wheel, chew toys and other necessities before bringing them home. - But in the end, it’s up to you to choose what kind of cage and toys do you want for your hamsters. - The key is just clean the cage regularly at least once a week. - If you’re a super diligent person then clean the cage three times a week will very good too. - It’ll be better if you buy disinfectant spray too to clean the cage from evil bacteria. - And for me - I’ll choose the cage which is big enough and have many toys inside. - The most important is - it’s must cute and came in blue colour, wkwkwk. - And this blue apartment cage seems is perfect! I’ll buy it. –

5. INT. HOME – MORNING

Taraaaaaa – So if we already bought the hamsters plus it’s home, now we need to give the hamsters food right? – Give the hamster food twice a day but don’t too much, give more position in night because hamster is nocturnal and only give snack in the morning or afternoon. Guys, can you guess what is hamster’s favorite food? Are you think it is sunflower seed like what Hamtaro eat? If you think so then you’re right, but giving the hamster sunflower seed everyday is not good because sunflower seed can’t fulfill hamster’s nutritions. Therefor we have to give variation for the hamster’s food. Fulfill their nutrition by giving them fresh vegetables but remember to not give the hamster potato, red bean, onion, chocolate or candy cause it can harm the hamster. Just don’t let your hamster gain more weight and become obesity because obesity can’t make the hamster slow and easy to get sick especially to get heart attack. You can see what I’ve give to my hamsters, look it’s bean and vegetables. I gave it fifty fifty guys so you can try it too with your hamster.

6. INT. HOME – MORNING

And the last is about hamster pee. You don’t want your hamster smells bad right? Don’t forget to give toilet for your pet. I give this ceramic bowl for my hamster too pee and put it away from the food bowl. I clean it everyday with liquid soap. And this little bathup with sand is for the hamster to take a bath. Yes, hamsters are take a bath with this fragrance sand guys. You can buy it directly in a pet shop or buy it in an online pet shop. The price is very affordable. For this 500 gram for 10.000 rupiah.

The Real Email Writing

Email writing

     A week ago my writing lecture ask me to search some information. It can be anything, such as scholarships, competition and etc. So I decide to search it via instagram. I found so many accounts about international scholarships, but unfortunately there are lack of link and contact person in their post. I feel like "meh" to continue scrolling down their feeds. And after strolling around instagram world, finally I found a debate competition in @needpbiumy and I think it would be fun if I give it a try with my friends in EDS (English Debate Society).

My email draft :

Dear Mr/Mrs,

    I'm Nindya Hikmah Meliarany from EDS UNY, I found an instagram account @needpbiumy and interested in the competition.

    So I want to ask about what system which used in the competition. Is it asian parliamentary or british parliamentary? 

Thank you.

Cats story : My first meeting with Nema and Nemu.

       Hellow!!! As the tittle, we will begin the story by the introduction of my cats.

  That is Nema.

And this one is Nemu.

        I named them Nemu and Nema because I found them in my second floor, at my family's storage room. Or in indonesian found means "nemu" and because of they are twins I named the other one Nema. 

       Actually, back then I wasn't really liked or loved cats. And when I found Nema and Nemu I was so confused about what I was gonna do to helped them. Then I asked my friends who are cats lover about what should I do. And they said I should put them in cardbox and kept the cardbox warm.

       My little brother helped me to take the cats because I felt tickled when I touched them. After that I thought how to gave them food. I browsed on the internet and read some articles about how to raise kittens. After read the articles, I conclude that there was two ways to raised them. First, by gave them another mother cats and the second way by gave them kittens milk. And then I choosed to bought them kittens milk in store near my house.

        That's all my story about my first meeting with my cats. Wait for the next story! If you want to ask something or correct something feel free to comment bellow! CIAO~
