I really miss you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I really really really really really really really miss you. Only few weeks to see you guys! Yeah!!!!
I am in Korea right now (I just decided to stay in my uncle's house and study) and I can't play violin for a lot weeks and my hands are kind of numb now. I really need to practice hard! I might be in third violin but I am happy that I can at least see some people in violin class like yong hee, michelle, maya and hyun jin.

I don't know why but I am not homesick even though I stayed here for 1 month. 1 week later, I will go back to Jakarta and then I will really miss cousin. My cousin is really kind. He is so kind that he was never angry at me and like me he really likes ps2 and he is better than me. He is good at passing but I am only good at dribbling. If I am lucky, I might buy winning eleven 2010. I really want to get that and I want to see what's different.

Only few weeks and I can see you guys! I wonder who would be my classmates.

렛츠고 코리아!!! (Let's go Corea!!!)

OMG!!! I didn't (I mean I couldn't because there weren't any computer in my grandparents' houses.) post anything for one week!! I said I will visit Korea for 1 week but I get to stay here one more week because I get to do health checking thing. I am in my uncle's house right now where there is really good computer.
I want to write about my grandparents but today, I am gonna write about world cup. I will only talk about team B. There are Argentina, South Korea, Nigeria and Greece in team B. The first match in team B was South Korea against Greece. I couldn't watch it because I was heading to the airport. At first, I thought South Korea would lose or draw because Greece is in 13th place in Fifa while Korea is in 47th place. Finally, the game started. First half... Lee Jung Soo shot perfectly and it was a fabulous goal. Then in second half, Ji Sung Park snatched a ball from Greece defender, dribbled 30m distance amazingly passing two defenders and scored a fantastic goal. The final whistle blew. It was a great victory for South Korea.
The second game was Argentina against Nigeria. Argentina did a great job but Nigeria GK, Vincent Enyeama, did a better job and saved most of the shootings. A heading goal by Heinze in Argentina was both the first goal and the final goal. As a result, South Korea was in the 1st place, Argentina 2nd place, Nigeria third place and Greece last place.
The third match was Argentina VS South Korea. Waiting for 10 minutes in front of TV felt like an hour. In the first half, Chu Young Park scored an own goal. It was pretty depressing for South Korea and lost their bravery. As a result, Higuain scored a heading goal. After that before the whistle blew, Ki yun snatched the ball from the defender like Ji Sung Park did and scored a fantastic goal. In the second half, Higuain scored two goals and the game ended. The result was really bad, 4-1. The next game after this was Greece against Nigeria. I realized it would be advantage for South Korea if Greece beat Nigeria. I was really sleepy so I fell asleep and couldn't watch the game. When I woke up my dad told me it was 1-0 for Nigeria but he added that the game did not end yet. I wished Greece to score 2 goals and again fell asleep. The next day when I woke up, I asked my dad right away and he said Greece won 2-1. I thought I was dreaming because that was what I wished before!!! Argentina is now in the first place, South Korea is in the second place, Greece in third place and Nigeria in the last place.
Only the first top two teams in each team are able to go to the next level. It is pretty obvious that Argentina will beat Greece and if South Korea beat or draw against Nigeria, Argentina and South Korea will go to the next level.

LET'S GO COREA!!!

It's Already Summer Vacation!!! Can U Believe It? I didn't know one year would pass this fast. Now, I have 2 months to write stuff on my blog. Normally, I just stay idly (Jittering) :) in my house doing nothing. So, if I do something special, I promise you to write them down.
One of the things I am gonna write will be visiting Korea. It surprised me because I never knew I was going to visit Korea until yesterday when my mom suddenly told me. I am going there for just one week but still I will have a lot of stuff to say. I will not be able to write in Korea because my grandparents don't have computer. :( But, I will really X 1000000 tell you what I did after I come back here.

P.S I am so sad that I can't see Mr.Hughes anymore. I will really miss you Mr.Hughes! You are one of my best teachers!!!

Looking Closer at Advertisement-Video

The Person: Hyun Jin Cha
The Title: McDonald's Happy Meal Ad Cha Cha Slide (long version)
Purpose: The purpose of this ad is to make people buy McDonald's happy meal.
Target Audience: Young people and children.
Why is this ad effective? This advertisement starts with a family eating hamburgers which gives you that this ad is related to hamburger store. Then, a young boy goes to the family and turns on Cha Cha Slide song. Cha Cha Slide song will get people's attention because they will think how this song is related to hamburgers and the rhythm is funny. Once, people look at this ad, they will see the boy eating potato chips along with the song. The way the boy dance such as trying to look like adults and wearing hat side way, really grabs the audiences and they will watch it until it is finished. At the end, the ad shows that that was McDonalds. But people can also realize that this is McDonalds because there was McDonalds happy meal in front of the boy while he was eating potato chips. I think the boy used in this ad was also effective because his age are the most target audiences which is kid. Also at first, the family was stunned by the boy but as he ate along the song, the father becomes interested in it which shows that when people eat McDonald's happy meal, they will actually become happy.

Lie VS Ask Any Question

If I can either lie or ask any question, I would choose asking questions. I would do this because even though you can lie, you will feel uncomfortable and if the person figures out that you lied, he/she will dislike you. On the other hand, asking questions doesn't make you feel uncomfortable and can get every, single and accurate answer which works like computer.
Another reason for it is because I can bother my parents and friends. :) The way to bother my parents: Asking question when my parents say, "You will know when you grow up," and just ignore me which makes me much more curious and want to get the answer. I know it's kind of mean but I become really, really curious. The way to bother my friends: "Who do you like?".XD
All these facts made me choose that I would rather ask any question than lie.

Jonas's Journal

Oh man, I was really, really, really frightened when The Chief of Elders skipped my turn. But don't freak out because I am assigned as... I mean" selected" as The Memory of Receiver. The good thing is that I can lie, ask any rude question, do not have to tell dreams... BUT!!! I have to go through some "Physical" pain (that is much more painful than crushing your hand) and I have to be apart from my friends. :( The Chief of Elders said that I have intelligence, integrity, courage, wisdom and capacity to see beyond and maybe I should admit about first four elements but not the "capacity to see beyond" skill. Can it be something related to what happened to the apple last time?

CLIO Award Advertisement


Target Audience: People who decide to suicide
  1. Symbolism- It is trying to stop peope who want to suicide.
  2. Body language- 'don't jump' is written on this model. This writing is placed at the top of the bus so that the people on the top of the building can see this writing.
  3. Camera angle- This picture is taken from the top of the building, a vision where people who try to suicide can see.
  4. Specidal effects- First, this ad made all the cars and people look blurry except for the bus that has 'don't jump' on the top to make it look distinctive. Second, 'don't jump' sign is written on a long bus to make the letters big. Last, in my opinion, every letter in 'don't jump' sign is not capitalized which give more offering kind of feeling than ordering.
  5. Lighting and color- The top color of the bus, which is white, and the color of the road, which is balck, are contrast colors which makes the bus distinctive. The letter of 'don't jump' is black color is also contrast to white top of the bus which makes the letter distinguishing.
  6. Beauty and standing- The bus is facing the building so that the people can see the sign clearly.
  7. Target and graphics- It is trying to stop people from suicide by showing 'don't jump' sign on the top of the bus.
