Three Categories of Student in Indonesia ; classification essay


Indonesia is a developed country with large amount of population. As the result, there is a high demand of education as the most important chance to survive in this country. Being a student in school or maybe university is not as simple as it looks. Do you ever think about it? It looks bad when we are classified as the bad student and sometimes we just accepted that title in our life without doing nothing. Even if we are classified as the good student, we will be so proud of our title, ignore the others and do not know how to being a nice person in the school. So, try to figure out in which part of student you are classified. If we talk about the type of student in common, there are 3 categories of student in Indonesia. For example, type of student based from their ability, study’s habit, and attitude while in the class.
The first one of student type is based from their ability. There are students that have a smart brain, do mathematics assignment in a short time, calculate the number within 1 minute, and etc. This kind of student called as fast-learned student. Then, there are students that have medium ability. They can do any assignment about mathematic or physics in a regular time. They are regular like student in common. They called average-learned student. The last type is slow-learned students. They called as slow-learned because they can learn the subjects slowly, and it is hard to make them understand what the point is within regular time as the common student use to be.
Second, there is student type based from their study’s habit. The first one is called diligent student. This kind of student always do their homework, subjects’ exercises, even write down what the teacher or lecturer’s said. Their book usually full of words which contain many  theories. Next one is average students. This kinds of students have common position like the ordinary, not too diligent and not too lazy. Then, the other type is called lazy student. This student is rarely to write anything at all, not the teacher or lecturer’s said and even the theories.
Last, type of student based from their activity while in the class. Are you always have a question or even want to attract the teacher or lecturer with doing some assignment in front of the class? This kinds of students is called as an active students. The next one is the medium students. This is the common type of students, being in the middle between active and passive. The last is called passive student. This kinds of students is the laziest person in the class, being daydreaming all the time during the study time.
 Knowing our type is important. If we have known about this three categories especially as the student and recognize some of them as our type, we can learn the best method of study that we will use to improve our skills to be better. It doesn’t matter if we classified as the bad student with no skill, but if there is courage and we want to change that, I’m sure that all of you will find the way to figure out the solution. For example, if we are classified as the passive person, we must use the study method that can make us being an active student.

Nowadays, facebook becomes more popular than friendster, because we know that the new released must be the coolest one.

We can also find it in these two kinds of social network. These two social networks actually have the same purpose when they are released. Like the other social network, it was designed for instant use of people that don’t have much time to socialize with community or his/her family, even friends.

It means that internet connection is easy and quite cheap to get in this country. So, they can use these two social networks to keep-in-touch with old friends or maybe their relatives, and so on.

We’ll see our profile picture that divided into some albums, see your backgrounds in education and work, what you are interested in, hobbies, born date, and etc. It shows that actually the  basic information feature of the users of these two kinds of social network are almost the same.

Global Warming In Surabaya, Cause-Effect Essay


Global Warming In Surabaya

Do you already know about Global Warming? In short, it is re-heating of the earth’s temperature. It has been higher and higher for each day. It is also a controversial issue that many countries in the world have argued with. Global warming is a dangerous effect that from people who ignore the environment’s health, don’t you think so? Many scientists do their research about this issue. Although Global warming has many effects that can endanger and cause many problems in human’s kind life especially in big city like Surabaya, but actually Surabaya is also has a big responsible too for cause a lead to global warming.
Surabaya is one of the big cities in Indonesia that contribute huge amount of pollution each day. Vehicles that use fuel are usually used by each person in this city. People in Surabaya usually prefer using private transportation rather than public transportation which means multiplying pollution from vehicle’s emission. This also can means that if there are more vehicles that use fuel on the road, the more pollution that this city contributed. If there are many kinds of pollution in the air, it will make oxygen in the air reduced and higher the rate of deadly gases for mankind. It’s very dangerous for our life as a human if we ignore that kinds of pollution.
As we know that higher rate of deadly gases in Surabaya can affect the people in Surabaya itself. As a result, it make the air in Surabaya polluted and affect the temperature, less oxygen in the air make Surabaya getting hotter each days. Don’t you think that the weather is so hot in Surabaya? If we compare it with the small cities near Surabaya, we will know the differences especially in the weather and the air. It is horrible when the temperature rise, we can see that many water sources have been reduced in Surabaya, there are just polluted water sources left in this city.
We have already know that Surabaya’s temperature getting hotter each days, so what’s next? Do you know that La Nina and El Nino do exist? It based on my geography lesson in 12th grade. The scientists said that the rise of temperature of the earth ( in this case Surabaya ) is a sign of the unbalanced climate, whether dry or wet season is unpredictable. You know that there will be less water in the ground or water sources which means climate in Surabaya is uncommon if we compare it with Surabaya in the past, whether there will be a long dry season or wet season which also means global warming. It’s a great disaster if the climate is unstable. It will disturb our daily life, actually not only for us ( people in Surabaya ) but also in the other part of worlds.
There are several things that can lead into global warming and actually affected by global warming in a cycle. If you think that ride a motorcycle or drive a car as a little thing, you should try to think it twice. Imagine that how much emission that you produced in the air, imagine how many kilometers that you past everyday even in a year. Then, calculate the pollution that you make in 1 day or even 1 year. You know that you are just 1 in a million people in Surabaya who contribute pollution that can lead Global warming. You also can see the impact of what have you did as a Global Warming effect nowadays, there are many examples of that thing. From now on, you should think twice about what you do and what is the results that can cause from your acts for the natural environment, because if you make the nature being unbalanced, you will see how great are the impacts of your little acts to mankind.
