Review ++ : Parvana by Deborah Ellis

I bought these books in a bookstore’s bazaar (The reason why i really love bazaar and would always love to drop by is they extremely cut the price off.....girl’s matter. Lol). I didn't pay my attention to its shelf at first, i just walked randomly looking for a good book in the great number of unsold book stacks. The shelf stand right in the corner of the bazaar, a place that couldn’t attract any attention, no one came to touch or even took a peek on the books there. If it wasn’t because of the crowd and because of my body kept telling me to find a little peace, i wouldn’t be able to find these books in that untouched area.

These books are not that thick, for each book consist of less than 150 pages, the thinnest books that i’ve ever read indeed. I always get doubt feeling when i read such thin book, whether they have good content or not, how can a good story can be told in such limited pages? But like always, i just give it a try. When i read the summaries, it allured me to spend my money on them and bring them home right away. But sadly these books had been forgotten and dusty for awhile, and after my 6 busy months, finally i had time to finish them all. The time when i read them was a memorable time. word by word, scene by scene, my emotions were mixed together; angry, sad, pity, and bunch of regret. So here’s my review, not just the review actually but we’ll talk about the reality as well.

Parvana took a place in Afghanistan. Once i mentioned that place i know what comes to your mind, yes it’s all about war. These novels told us how the war has affected the children lifes there, about how horrible it took their peaceful and happy childhood.

Deal with Foreigner

Indonesia is such a beautiful country. We got many great destinations to travel in such as Bali, Yogyakarta, Raja Ampat, Bunaken, Komodo Island, etc. But not just the places, Indonesia is well known for the food and the people as well. Every year Indonesia attracts many tourists to come, for example in 2015 there were more than 10 thousand people came to enjoy all of the beauty of Indonesia.

Indonesian is known as friendly people, not just to the fellow citizens, but they are extremely admired towards foreigners. They treat them as SUPERIOR. Trust me, whenever Indonesian see foreigners around them, they will be calling them admirebly and even taking picture with them as they are taking it with celebrities. I didn’t say that being friendly is a bad thing, but doing it too much is unjustified.

Look how happy they were, i bet your eyes will get distracted by the woman on the left side, i thought she didn’t realize what she’s holding, but if you take a closer look, i think she’s doing it in purpose.

What the.... lol

No Review But the Meanings Behind - Swades, A Bollywood Movie That shook My Soul

 Swades

People nowadays compete to get much money, powers and big names. The parents compete to get the best education for their kids, to build up their bright future. They sent their kids (litterally or not) to work at big cities or even another country, hoping that someday they will get a great job and return with a ton box full of money. People said the more money you can make, the more respect you get. they are right, the reason of the exsistence of education is to rise the level, the level of human being. but people misunderstand it, the level that they always talking about is supposed to be not your own level in your society, but the level of your own society, neighbourhood, and even your own country. What the meaning of being educated if it's only to get money for your own? what kind of respect you will get after being one?
