had been seven years of showering Acordia in heavenly fortunes, and since the
war she had won. However, those seven years of wishing had taken its toll on
the young Princess Solene. <o:p></o:p></span></b></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;">The frost-crusted and snow-plowed gravel crunched
softly beneath the sole of Solene’s lace-up boots. Her hands, freezing cold and
ghostly pale from lack of sunlight were tucked inside the scarlet coat she had
draped on. She hadn’t bothered to put on a pair of gloves; her body was able to
withstand the weather far longer than the average of a normal human’s. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;"> Despite
the sharp, raw weather, soldiers were wandering across the frosted streets –
their occasional barks of orders cutting through the hushed air. Acordia, even
though powdered by mounds of snow and crusted by frost, obtained its own beauty
even in the iciest conditions that would have aroused aversions in other countries.
Winter captured Acordia in an ink black-and-white way, yet with light hints of
winter-ish blues and mild floods of soft tawny emitting from streetlights. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;"> Cast
by pools of ghostly light and wintry atmosphere wrapping around Solene’s
quivering figure, a feather of cooling warm air left her breathing lips and her
hair – loose, curled, and inferno red – collected a lace of snowflakes. With
both hands pulling the edge of her coat together, her mundane thoughts couldn’t
help but wander to the recent flashes of fire, smoke, collapsing shards of
glass and ceramic and wood, and so much crimson stained everywhere.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;"> She
had lost control of her power. And she knew it wasn’t safe anymore for her
kingdom if she were to remain here.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;"> One
of her hands peeked out of the sleeves and trailed its fingers across a bush of
silver roses – one of the wishes she had used her wishbone for. They looked
mesmerizing under the feathers of snow and patterned frost. She held onto a
rose, staring at it longingly – if only she had a second. Before she could even
scrutinize the shape of its flawless, yet dangerous beauty, a spark of fire
blossomed from the mere touch of her fingertip and instantly ravaged the entire
bud of rose, reducing it into nothing but ashes. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;">Fog crept into the kingdom. Threads of translucent
grey and white rippled across the gentle waves of Acordia. An opaque bank of
clouds formed above the vacant sea, rolling closer toward the land of silver
roses. The mist grew and rose higher as it crawled under an old bridge,
blossoming and swallowing it whole. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

floating amid the grey clouds. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

a bag of krill they could only provide for their families’ hunger.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;"> The
palace garden was blanketed with silver roses that shone brightly regardless of
the thick fog that became a nuisance to many eyes. Stable keepers guided
frightened horses to their stables. Soldiers exited the courtyard as the fog
swept everything under their bone-chilling wisps of thick grey. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;"> Beyond
the castle walls, the King and Queen of Acordia were pacing around in the
throne room. The three-month pregnant Princess Faye watched her parents tread
in haste and anxiety, as she nestled in her vibrant violet throne, concern
swimming in her emerald eyes. Her husband, Prince Wesfall, caressed her
shoulder, giving her a touch of needed comfort.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

Aeda remembered those 6205 days when her oldest daughter would come home every
dawn with abnormal scars and bruises painting her face, arms, abdomen, and
legs, or the occasional scorch marks on her back and chest. Most of those
dawns, she would carry more than a thousand pounds of fresh meat for their
subjects to feed on. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;">A distant archipelago traveler arrived at the Acordia
palace. He asked for the King and Queen’s attention. “I have brought both
wonderful and devastating news!” he exclaimed as he knelt on one knee before
the royal couple. “The Princess Solene is alive! She is imprisoned in a tower
on a remote island on the far side of the globe, by a dragon!” <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;"> The
King and Queen were delighted to hear that their daughter was alive, yet were
beyond horrified of the dragon. So, to save Princess Solene’s life and bring
her back home, they challenged the Prince Kais from a nearby kingdom to travel
distant lengths to the island where the Princess had been held captive, <i>alone</i>. If he succeeds, he will be wedded
to the Princess and stand as King of Acordia. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;"> The
thirty-five-year-old Prince Kais, who was eager to rule her beautiful kingdom,
accepted the challenge and set off. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;">It took Kais five years to reach the island. By the
time he set foot on land, the moonlight flooded his ailing features that he had
obtained from five years of endless journey. His skin had folded into wrinkles.
His once bright blue eyes had dulled into a drab shade of blue-grey. His once
athletic, muscular figure had turned frail and limp. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;"> He
rubbed his exhausted, ailing eyes with the back of his hand. His blurred vision
cleared and a lofty tower loomed in the middle of the island. Just the mere
sight of it encouraged him to drag his feet toward it. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;"> The
white-bricked tower shadowed over him as he stood right in front of the
heavy-looking door. He was disgusted and terrified to see dried stains of blood
splattered across the walls and valley near. The skeletons of numerous animal
corpses sat still as swarms of flies and insects decomposed what was left of
its flesh and organs. Some of them were still fresh, as if they were hunted a
while ago. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;"> He
cringed in fear. He knew slaying <i>this</i>
dragon was definitely <i>not</i> an easy
task.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;"> His
hand reluctantly pushed the colossal wooden door open. Its hinges creaked as it
swung open, curdling his ears. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;"> The
inside of the tower was dim, only a few strands of moonlight fought their way
in through the apertures of the dwelling. The spiraling staircase appeared
fragile; the wood of the stairs were beginning to crack and fall off. Cobwebs
blanketed every part and corner of the room, prompting him to crinkle his nose
in disgust even more so. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;"> Slowly
and cautiously, he crept up the seemingly endless stairs. He made his way up to
the highest and only room in the tower. He guessed that the place might have
been where the Princess was imprisoned in. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;"> A
lashing sound came from behind him; like the sound of the wind or a blade
cutting swiftly through the air. Another lash resonated through the room. Then,
he felt heavy, warm, relentless breaths heaving a weight upon his shoulders and
back. A tingle of scorching heat poked his neck and he jumped and shrieked. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;"> He
swiveled around in an instant and came face to face with a <i>dragon</i>. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;"> <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;"> However,
this dragon was unlike any other dragon he had ever battled. The dragon was,
surprisingly, appealing and elegant. Its scales were the color of scarlet, with
hints of blood red. The horns protruding from its head entwined and curve into
a unique shape resembling a crown. Its vivid green eyes lit up the entire room.
They felt as if they were piercing into his soul, reading his thoughts and
learning his past. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;"> What
caught his attention the most was the large necklace twined around its scaly
neck. The necklace seemed to be made out of pure white gold, and a hand-sized rose-shaped
ruby gemstone embedded into the center of the necklace glimmered in the dark.
Elaborate swirling details were carved into the gold piece, replicating a
rose’s stem. Dark pink diamonds dotted along the details, accenting it
beautifully. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;"> The
dragon’s pupils were slit, aggression burning in its intense eyes. It opened
its jaws. Electric blue light mixed with vivid red at the mouth of its throat.
Acetylene and oxygen-shaped plasma began to form into a ball as it assessed for
the right time to strike its ball of fire.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;"> Prince
Kais’s eyes bled tears, crouching down with both his arms shielding his head,
as if it would protect him from the searing plasma. “Please, I beg you. Don’t
kill me!” he cried, yet he was smirking in malice under the cover of his arms. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;"> Recognition
flashed across the scarlet dragon’s eyes for a brief moment. Its once slit
pupils widened as the aggression in its orbs melted into wonder and curiosity.
The dragon closed its gaping jaws, swallowing the fire within it. The creature
tilted its head to the side, both of its eyes appearing rather cat-like. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;"> Prince
Kais noticed the dragon ceasing its assault and took this moment as an
opportunity to unsheathe his sword, pointing the tip of his blade dangerously
close to the creature. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;"> The
dragon’s former cat-like eyes transformed back into their aggressive and slit
state. Its clamped jaws curled into a deadly snarl, baring its razor-edged
teeth and keen fangs. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;"> Kais
penetrated his sword into the dragon’s right front leg, creating a noticeable
gash. Silver blood poured out of the wound like a river. The dragon whimpered
as it stared at the slash painfully. It whipped its slender head at the one
responsible for its wound and growled stridently. The sound could compete with the
booming rumbling of thunder. Its jaws enlarged. And with a strong, quick lash
of its tail, Kais’s sword was knocked out of his grasp. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;"> Prince
Kais collapsed to the cemented floor defenselessly – his sword clattering and
skidding across the room. The winged creature strode closer to the Prince,
cornering him onto a balcony. It gave out a penetrating roar, making his limbs
go limp.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;"> Its
teeth lengthened further. The Prince quivered. Before he could process what it
was about to do, the dragon swooped down its head and chopped his head off with
one clean bite. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;"> Prince
Kais’s head rolled across the ground, the petrified look still etched on his still
face. The fresh meat and blood spilled from the chopped-off neck; the mere
sight of it building a river of rich red provoking the dragon to lick its
fangs, thirsty for the presence and taste of blood everywhere in its throat and
tongue and lips. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;"> The
colossal, yet slender figure of the scarlet-scaled dragon was replaced with a lovely
young woman. Her inferno red hair cascaded down her back, a few stray strands
dancing over her moonlit features. Fire rose in her keen green eyes under the
soft pools of light the stars and moon created, and they scorched a path
through the air. Her pale skin mirrored the moon’s delicate color. A white-gold
crown on her head wavered in white flames like millions of scattered searing
stardust that had been pieced back together through the flames of inferno and
the seas of blood she had created. Oddly, the crown didn’t burn through her
head like it should have done; it eradicated into actual <i>white fire</i>. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;"> Even
after twenty years living in the middle of nowhere, she didn’t gain a single
wrinkle or strand of silver in her hair, or any other changes an average human
would have gained throughout their adult years. The beauty she possessed at the
age of twenty-one stayed true to her features.

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;"> Grinning
maliciously, she watched the dead Prince’s skin pale. Then a pair of fangs bore
from her mouth. She knelt down and pierced her fangs into his neck. Blood
surged through her throat, the thick and salty taste of it sending satisfying
tingles through her taste buds. Her pupils grew into slits as hunger took the
best of her. She continued to devour every ounce of blood streaming through the
corpse’s veins. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;"> Her
blazing crown and red hair gathered the crimson liquid from his beheaded self. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;"> Satisfied
and full, she removed her fangs from the impaled spot. More blood from the
wound streamed as one with the blood that was flowing from where the Prince’s
head had been. The blood made its way across the balcony and rained down the
ledge, forming a waterfall that would terrorize every person or thing
witnessing the sight.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<b>What is Cerebral Palsy?</b><br />
Cerebral Palsy (CP) refers to neurological disorders that appear in infancy or childhood.<br />
Cerebral Palsy affects the muscle movements, preventing people with such disorder to be unable to move their muscles to do certain activities properly.<br />
<br />
The majority of children having Cerebral Palsy are born with it, although it may be detected a few months or years later.<br />
The signs of Cerebral Palsy usually appear before a child reaches three years old. The most common is the lack of muscle coordination when performing voluntary movements (ataxia); stiff or tight muscles and exaggerated reflexes; walking with one foot or leg dragging; walking on the toes; crouched gait; 'scissored' gait; and muscle tone which is either too floppy or too stiff. <br />
<br />
Other neurological symptoms that commonly occur in individuals with CP include seizures/convulsions, hearing loss and impaired vision, bladder and bowel control issues, and pain or abnormal sensations.<br />
<br />
A small number of children have CP as the result of a brain damage within the first few months of years of life, brain infections such as bacterial meningitis or viral encephalitis, a motor vehicle accident, a fall, or child abuse.<br />
The disorder isn't progressive, meaning the brain damage does not get worse over time. Risk factors related to CP do not cause the disorder, but could increase the chance in having a child with CP. Cerebral Palsy is not hereditary.<br />
<br />
<b>Is there any treatment?</b><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Cerebral Palsy cannot be cured.<br />
However, some treatments can improve a child's capabilities.<br />
In general, the earlier treatment begins the better chance children have of overcoming developmental diseases or learning new ways to accomplish tasks that challenge them.<br />
Early interventions, supportive treatments, medications, and surgery can help many individuals improve their muscle control.<br />

<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Aku ingin bercerita tentang peran Mama-ku dalam
mengajarkan dan membudayakan menulis dan membaca dalam hidupku. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Sejak aku beranjak umur empat tahun, Mama
menyuguhkan aku banyak sekali buku-buku. Pada awal-awalnya, buku-buku tersebut
hanya 5-7 halaman – sangat tipis dengan banyak ilustrasi berwarna-warni. Ada
beberapa yang berbahasa Inggris dan ada yang berbahasa Indonesia. Setiap hari,
setelah belajar dan sebelum tidur, Mama akan selalu duduk disampingku sambil
membacakan salah satu buku yang ia telah beli. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Karena sering mendengarkan Mama membaca, aku
menjadi terbiasa membaca kalimat-kalimat dan mengingat kata-kata dalam buku.
Dan dari situ aku mulai bisa membaca sedikit demi sedikit, walaupun hanya bisa
membaca satu buku cerita. Buku pertama yang kubaca adalah cerita mengenai
perjalanan liburan seekor beruang bersama kudanya, dan seekor katak yang
ternyata telah bersembunyi didalam ember pakan kuda. Tidak hanya itu, Mama juga
membuat kalimat-kalimat yang di-print dan di-laminating untuk berlatih membaca.
Meskipun awalnya aku agak lambat membaca, Mama tidak memaksa aku untuk belajar
dengan cepat.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">“<i>Take your
time</i>,” kata Mama. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Ternyata membaca itu tidak semudah yang kupikirkan.
Butuh hampir satu tahun untuk hanya belajar membaca buku cerita tersebut.
Setelah aku mulai lancar membaca, Mama mengajarkan aku menulis. Dari kata ke
kalimat dan akhirnya menjadi sebuah cerita pendek. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Karena aku senang membaca dan menulis, Mama membuat
perjanjian bahwa satu bulan sekali, kita akan pergi ke toko buku. Biasanya kita
bisa menghabiskan 1-2 jam di toko buku hanya untuk memilih buku tepat yang
ingin kita baca. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Lama-lama aku mencintai menulis dan membaca, dan
dari situ, aku suka membuat cerita-cerita pendek dan essay Sains. Aku latihan
setiap hari, mengasah kemampuanku dalam menulis dan merangkum sub-subject
Sains. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Sampai sekarang, Mama mengarahkan aku untuk menulis
buku karena kesukaan menulisku.</span><span style="font-family: Arno Pro Caption, serif; font-size: 15pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Water is an important part of our life. We use it
to carry out our daily activities. If we use and treat it the wrong way, we
might end up losing it, so we have to save it as best as we can. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Indonesia has over 5,590 rivers, most of them short
and steep. Yet, people treat them incorrectly. Even though Indonesia’s water
source is about 21 percent total water resources in the Asia Pacific region,
clean water is becoming a serious problem in the country. Recently, about 80
percent of 250 million people in Indonesia have no access to piped water. Due
to the difficulties and limited access to clean water, a large number of people
still rely on rivers to carry out their daily activities; washing, drinking,
and bathing. And it is a huge problem that so many people rely on rivers and
lakes while others keep trashing and polluting water. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Waste puking from sewers and large pipes connected
to factories and homes cause a serious damage to water and the living organisms
that live or rely on it. Garbage thrown into riversides, which is then carried
by the waves into the water, is also causing water pollution. Oil shipped from
country to country often leak, poisoning the organisms in water. Though, not
only water pollution brings serious damage to our needs for water, the impact
can also hit on the living organisms in need of water, such as fish and many
different kinds of farm animals we consume. We would starve and thirst. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="line-height: 115%;">There was an indication that people in villages who
use rivers as drinking water tend to decrease from 22.8 percent to 22.5 percent
during period 1999 until 2002. There are several factors causing the
degradation of water resources’ quality in Indonesia, such as domestic waste
and pollution. About 56.15 percent of households dispose their domestic waste
directly to the river body. </span><b>(http://www.wepa-db.net/policies/state/indonesia/indonesia.htm)</b><span style="line-height: 115%;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="line-height: 115%;">As of 2015, an average person in Indonesia can
produce 0.7 kilogram of waste per day. With 250 million people, a staggering
175,000 tons of waste is produced each day, amounting 64 million tons per year,
according to data from the ministry. This waste is mostly dumped into landfill.<br />
These landfills are struggling to cope with the ever-increasing waste as the
population grows and the people consume more and more. </span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;">For example, South Tangerang, a 147-kilometer-square city with 1.4 million
people, is lacking an adequate number of temporary trash disposal sites (TPS).
Many of the existing TPS are not functioning properly, forcing a large number
of residents to burn their trash and suffer through the negative effects of air
pollution.</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">If we don’t reduce the amount of waste we produce
every day, we would very soon run out of landfills and instead dump our waste
into the rivers, lakes, and seas! Think of all the pollution we might cause. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">And think about all the lives of many other
animals! Oil lingering on water birds’ feathers poisons them, preventing them
to be able to fly or survive in winter. Fish, dolphins, migrating whales, and
sea turtles that get tangled in plastic and garbage, driven into sea shores
would have a hard time getting unstuck and returning to its natural habitat –
especially if people never tried to help them out, only satisfying themselves
with photographs of the animals. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Water animals are not the only animals suffering
through water pollution; land animals which need water to bathe in and drink
would suffer through the same things as well, leading them to <b>death</b>! <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">This isn’t only important for Indonesia, it’s

now. Stop saying in the social media that you have to save water and preserve
nature; start doing what you’ve always said. Although, words can provoke the
minds of other people, do what you think is right before telling others to them
too. </span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Remember, actions speak louder than words. Once you do something good,

<span style="line-height: 150%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"></span></span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/736x/7d/93/5d/7d935d9e5d7022d745c688223e95b0e8.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/736x/7d/93/5d/7d935d9e5d7022d745c688223e95b0e8.jpg" width="297" /></a></div>
<span style="line-height: 150%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="line-height: 150%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Why do people need to have dreams? Having
dreams is important. Sometimes, people do not know what are their dreams, what
they want, and what will they do in their future. It is ironic! <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="line-height: 150%;">When
people have many dreams about their future, sometimes it can last, and
sometimes it can change. Dreams can be carried as a <b>vision</b>. A vision is what you see in the future and what you want it
to be. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="line-height: 150%;">Dreams
and Visions are a bit different; Dreams are only a 50 percent positive, but
Visions are 99 or 100 percent positive in a focus way; how unique you are in
your profession, which university will you go to, what actions will you do to
enter it and who will you collaborate with.
</span><span style="line-height: 150%;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify;">
<span style="line-height: 150%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">As
what I’ve said before, dreams can change any time. And that happened to me; I
change my dreams for most of the time. When I was 6 years old, I wanted to be a
Doctor. It was quite interesting, but a bit creepy – imagine if a dead body
walks out of the hospital – that was my cousin’s silly tale. They used to tell
me that learning how to be a doctor is fun, so I thought maybe I could be a
doctor one day. </span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 150%;">Then,
somehow it changed when I started to read many books and watch designing &
science programs in TV channels.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 150%;">From
every knowledge that I’ve got, I want to be a great writer that writes cool
stories and a great Animal Scientist with a hobby of interior designing. Time
after time I’ve realized that this wasn’t
just a dream, but a vision. And I’m very sure about it. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify;">
<span style="line-height: 150%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"> </span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 150%;">All
that I did to reach those visions are my </span><b style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 150%;">passion</b><span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 150%;">.
A passion is something that you really love to do all the time. I’ve been
reading lots of books like novels, encyclopedia, and biography, surfing the
internet and watching some TV shows of knowledge to reach them. Those are my
true passion. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify;">
<span style="line-height: 150%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Doing
those stuffs is my everyday life to fill in my spare time. I enjoy most of my
time doing them. Sometimes I go with my Mom to the places I love most after she </span></span><span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 150%;">finishes her work in her office, like; the
book store, the library, the movie theater, and go to the National park on
holiday weekends. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 150%;">I
don’t really enjoy most of the libraries here, because they only have a few authors. The book store is my most sacred place. Without a book in this
world, makes my world, and I think other people’s world narrow and dark. Books are the windows for us to see and travel many different and unique worlds without having to move our feet or go anywhere.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify;">
<span style="line-height: 150%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"> </span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 150%;">Books
spread our imagination and dreams wider; they fill up the blank pieces of paper
with ink which I’ve always imagined that each drop is a thought or memory that
you share to the world. Writing a book is to write down your feelings and clear
your full working mind into a calm one. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 150%;">It’s
like writing poetry and letters to your family or other loved ones. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify;">
<span style="line-height: 150%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">You would share your feelings to your Mom,
wouldn’t you? <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify;">
<span style="line-height: 150%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Well, writing a book is like that too. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify;">
<span style="line-height: 150%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">I
hope you now know that reading and writing is an important thing…<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify;">
<span style="line-height: 150%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Well, now, back to the topic.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify;">
<span style="line-height: 150%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"> </span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 150%;">A
dream is like a cloud, a cloud that floats way up in the sky. And under that
big cloud, there are some small clouds which form your life steps. You must
walk step by step up the small clouds to reach the big cloud. Those steps
can help you to reach it, like the stairs that leads to your favorite room in
your house. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify;">
<span style="line-height: 150%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"> <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify;">
<span style="line-height: 150%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">What
I’ve done in my life are my steps, like entering this speech contest is my
opportunity to be a famous entrepreneur. And I’ll do my best to make my family
proud of me. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify;">
<span style="line-height: 150%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">When
I grow up, I want to have college in a foreign country. But I don’t know where,
because I’m still considering it. I realized, I have to search some information
<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify;">
<span style="line-height: 150%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">for a college. Some of those became my
judgment; among others are University of IOWA, and University of Colorado. I think I’d prefer to go to IOWA, since I'm more into literature. But, how can I get a scholarship to go to
that university? I have to do that by doing <b>actions</b>. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify;">
<span style="line-height: 150%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"> </span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify;">
<span style="line-height: 150%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">My actions are searching information of each
university, <b>study hard </b>and <b>study smart</b> on subjects that I love
most, ask other people who has an experience of studying there for more
information, surf the internet and read lots and lots of books. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify;">
<span style="line-height: 150%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Study
hard is to focus on the subject that I love and that’s connected to my dreams.
And Study smart is to find a way to reach my dreams faster. Choose an effective
way and decide how creative/unique I am in that profession. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify;">
<span style="line-height: 150%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"> </span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 150%;">After
I’ve done the three of them; vision, passion, and action, I think I’m already
near my dream cloud. So when I go to college and then graduate from it, I need
to </span><b style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 150%;">collaborate</b><span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 150%;"> with someone that has
the same dream as I do, with a kind heart and someone truthful and loyal, because none of
the professions can stand alone, but they need to synergy with each other.</span></div>

<span style="line-height: 150%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Example,
if you want to make a movie, you don’t just need an actor or actress to do it.
You’ll also need a camera expert, anime/cartoon maker, sound man and some
musicians, right? If they work together, they could make amazing movies, don’t
you think? <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Lucky woke up from the
pitch black darkness and found himself locked in a cage placed in a strange dark
blue-colored laboratory. It was a bit chilly, despite the fact that the AC wasn't on. The Golden Retriever dog shivered in
cold. Suddenly, he was greeted by a displeasing hum followed along with heavy
footsteps walking down a hall of the entrance of the lab. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-family: "high tower text" , "serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"> </span><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-family: "high tower text" , "serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"> </span><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-family: 'High Tower Text', serif; font-size: 14pt; line-height: 115%;">That person who made all of the heavy noises revealed
himself, before sliding his ID card into an electric scan machine which could
recognize the identity of the person who came in. </span><i style="font-family: 'High Tower Text', serif; font-size: 14pt; line-height: 115%;">Beep… </i><span style="font-family: 'High Tower Text', serif; font-size: 14pt; line-height: 115%;"> </span><span style="font-family: 'High Tower Text', serif; font-size: 14pt; line-height: 115%;">The scan machine made
a sound. Lucky knew he was in trouble because the man injected some liquid into
a syringe then, the man walked towards Lucky’s cage.</span></span></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"> Lucky walked backwards and bumped into something which was
a sharp pin. Oh, he wished this was all a big nightmare… He wished he was back
in his warm comfy home with his own loving family who loves him every bit as
much as they love each other. So, to ensure himself this was all a nightmare,
Lucky pinned his front left paw with the pin. Unfortunately, it didn’t work… It
was all real. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"> The man unlatched the cage’s lock and pushed the liquid
into Lucky’s small hairy ginger body. Lucky yelped in pain. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"> Blue-ish
atoms swirled around his body and Lucky’s yelp turned into a cry. “OW!!!” That
made the man astonished at the power of the liquid. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"> Lucky noticed that the latch was still open, so this was a
chance for him to escape! He bolted in a high speed – which was pretty amazing
and shocked for him to know – towards the opening latch. In less than 30
seconds, Lucky managed to escape out of his cage <i>and </i>the creepy lab. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"> Now, <i>that’s </i>how
Lucky got his amazing powers. Once he escaped the building where the lab was
placed in, a little girl picked him up out of nowhere and gladly took care of
him with her father. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"> The girl was called Elsa, Elsa Carpenter.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">~~*~~<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Elsa Carpenter was a peasant, poor 12-year-old girl who is
sold to a rich couple to be a house maid by her own father since she was 5
years old. Her father did that just to get a simple trade of a red tablecloth,
a female goat, and a busted sewing machine because he wanted to be a
professional tailor.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"> All that was left for her was a Golden Retriever dog which
she raised since it was a puppy and found it in the middle of the streets, an
unruly dirty notebook which she usually cleans up with a wet tissue, and an old
ink pen. She kept her notebook and pen because she liked to sketch and write
some short stories. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"> Elsa was hired to do 2 house chores by a rich young couple
who owned a large mansion in Los Angeles, California. Doing 2 house chores –
which were laundry and cooking – was a bit hard, especially when it comes to
cooking. She really sucked at it. Elsa couldn’t even season, boil water, or
make a simple sunny-side egg. The laundry was quite easy to do for her, but not
cooking. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"> Every dinner, she gets a big pinch to the ear from the
groom and the bride just sat down on her part of seat, staring off into deep
thoughts of La La Land without even standing up for her young maid, although
she wished that Elsa was her child. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"> The groom’s wife, Miley Underwood, wanted to have a baby
since the beginning of their marriage, but her husband, Michael Underwood, didn’t
want to have one, so he told his wife to have a birth control injection which
left a disappointed feeling for her. Even though Elsa might not be good at
cooking, her loyal and cheerfulness brings happy thoughts to her. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"> “I’m sorry, Sir.” Elsa apologized to the groom who she
calls Sir or sometimes his name. She just made a mistake on her Meat Loaf’s
seasoning, which made the couple’s tongues really spicy. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"> Michael gave her a hard pinch right on the ear where it
hurts most then released it when Elsa cried harder. “You better make good food
next time. It really matters to have perfect gourmet food if you’re a rich
business man.” <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"> Elsa gulped hard, trying to resist the pain that was caused
by the pinch from the ear. “Y-yes sir.” She hated it when Michael gives her
pinches. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"> Michael and Miley never gave food to Elsa or even a warm
drink whenever it rains or snows. She only drank sink water and ate cheap rice
pudding which she buys along way the streets of Temecula. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"> So, when Michael and Miley eat restaurant food in the
mansion, Elsa stood blankly in the corner of the dining room, staring at the
delicious food that the rich couple was eating. Every food looked so delicious
and sweet in cafés, restaurants, shops, and bakeries. Elsa really wanted to eat
them so badly, only, she didn’t have enough money. The salaries that Michael
and Miley lent her were only a few cents. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"> One night, after the rich couple ate dinner and gave their
little maid another hard pinch, Elsa’s chores were finally done and now it was
time for her to sleep. Once she cleaned up the last plate and placing it back
in one the cupboard drawers, she walked hastily off to her small bedroom under
the third-floor stair chambers.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"> Sure it was a long way from the kitchen which was in the
very corner of the mansion. But somehow, she’d gotten used to it. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"> The stairs were about 5 feet wide and marble tiles covered
the whole steps with a long red carpet covering the middle part which if you
stand on straight in line can fit for 2 persons. Perfect for a rich couple,
don’t you think?<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"> Walking to a third-floor stair chamber sure was exhausting,
especially when the mansion has 12 floors and the stairs were really long. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><i>I wonder how the couple could succeed to get
through these stairs. Their room is on the 6<sup>th</sup> floor. That’s
impossible for me to reach. </i>Elsa thought. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"> Elsa pounded on the door quietly before there was a short
pause, and then a key flew out from under the turquoise blue door. The one who
flung the key out was actually her Golden Retriever dog, named Lucky. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"> “Thanks, boy!” She chirped happily, turning the key in the
doorknob to unlock her chamber door. A light and friendly ‘Woof’ greeted her
when she finally opened the door. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"> Suddenly, the ginger-haired dog leaped from Elsa’s hard
sponge bed and cuddled its owner with its furry legs, preventing its claws from
leaving a scratch on her face, but turns out it left a few light scars that you
can hardly see from afar. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"> “Come on, boy. Let’s read ‘The Tiny Book of Tiny Stories’.”
Reading had been Elsa’s favorite activity to fill out her spare time. Even
though it was 9 PM, she still sits on the head of her bed, reading endlessly
with her favorite books. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"> “I’m so happy you’re here, Lucky. No one would ever let you
in, especially Michael.” The canine nuzzled into Elsa’s lap while she read one
of the short tales of ‘The Tiny Book of Tiny Stories’. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"> It was true, Michael hated dogs and he preferred Lucky to
be outside in Elsa’s small house. The staircase closet is where she sleeps when
she’s punished, but the place where she actually lives in is a simple small
house at the back yard with the other maids.
<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"> The strangest thing happened, <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"> “I’m happy that you’re here too, Els.” Lucky said, shaking
his tail happily. Elsa dropped her book and stared at her Golden Retriever dog
in disbelief and amaze. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"> “You…talked…” Elsa stuttered, amazed. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"> “Oh, yeah, about that, I got poisoned by a crazy old mad scientist
before I met you. And I got the power to talk and have human intelligence. Pretty cool, right?” <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"> Elsa made sure this wasn’t a dream, so she pinched her arm
and she didn’t wake up. This wasn’t a dream! The girl tried her best not to
scream in delight, because this was actually the greatest moment of her life. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"> “YAY!” Elsa screamed – I mean squealed – in delight
which made the butler, Heathcliff open the door and ask her. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"> “Are you alright, Ms. Carpenter?”<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"> “Uh…yeah, I’m fine.” She replied. Heathcliff closed the
chamber door shut and left the hall. Elsa then turned to her talking dog. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"> “That was close.” The girl wiped a sweat from her forehead
with a quirky laugh. “So, you’re like a super dog or something?” <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"> “Quite close… Hey, by the way, I know you’re having
problems with your cooking.” Lucky told his owner as she sat down on her bed
continuing to reading her book. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"> “Yeah… You know, Elsa, maybe I could teach you how to cook.
My brain is programmed to have high IQ intelligence, so I think I can teach
you.” He wiggled his tail around excitedly. Elsa’s face lit up and she placed
down her book on her ragged woolen blanket. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"> “Really? You think you could do that?” Her frown turned
upside down into a smile. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"> “I promised to take care of you in return, because you took
care of me, so yeah. I can teach you. When should we start?” <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"> Elsa lifted her index finger onto her chin as a gesture of
thinking. “I know!” This time, she lifted her finger in the air. “Michael and
Miley said they would be having a holiday to Florida for 4 weeks, starting from
tomorrow! So, in that time we can learn how to cook! This is going to be so
good!” <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<i style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Miley and Michael Underwood were having
a trip with their family and family-in-law in New Mexico. The Underwood couple
actually wanted to have some amazing time in New York, but one of their cousins
was getting bored of modern light cities, so, they went to New Mexico.</span></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<i><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"> It was very hot and sunny, thank
goodness they brought themselves their hats or else they would get sunburn…
After eating tacos for lunch, the couple separated from their family to explore
more parts of the city, until they arrived at a poor village where the two saw
children and old people who looked starving for food. <o:p></o:p></span></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<i><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"> Suddenly, a 40 or so year old man
approached them. He was wearing a dirty old loose t-shirt, a pair of ripped
trousers that reached until his calf, and torn sandals. <o:p></o:p></span></i></div>

child who really needs a job. She’s for sale. Would you like to buy her and
hire her as your loyal servant?” The man asked Miley and Michael after he bowed
at them.</span></i></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<i><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"> Before replying, Miley gave a glance
at Michael who was giving her an I-don’t-want-to-have-a-child look. Being a
woman who had always wanted a child, Miley ignored her husband’s look and
replied to the man:<o:p></o:p></span></i></div>

<i><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></i></div>

an old shack where a 10-year-old girl was reading a torn book – which she got
from a trash can – on her hay bed. The girl looked up from her book when Miley,
Michael and the man who is her father stepped into the room. <o:p></o:p></span></i></div>

face Elsa by her height and smiled warmly. “Hi…” The woman greeted her. Elsa
returned a smile, this time not forced, as she buried her face behind her book
shyly. “I’m Miley Underwood. What’s your name?”<o:p></o:p></span></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">

<i><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"> “I-I’m E-Elsa, Mrs. Underwood.” The
little girl stuttered her name. The little girl still smiled at the woman’s
kindness. <o:p></o:p></span></i></div>

Miley admired her young soon-to-be-maid. She turned to her husband with a stern
look. “Isn’t that right, Michael?” <o:p></o:p></span></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">

at his wife and said as he took a glance at his Swiss Army watch. “Yeah, yeah,
whatever. Come on, honey. We’ll be late for dinner.” Miley also glanced at her
Swarovski watch, just then she frowned.<o:p></o:p></span></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">

have 2 hours left to join Mom and Dad for dinner. Besides, you don’t want this
poor girl and her father to die of starvation, wouldn’t you?” She reasoned. <o:p></o:p></span></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">

Now.” His wife snapped at him. She told Elsa to stay there for a minute while
she and her husband have a talk, which probably will leave many snapping or
scolding or even hissing. <o:p></o:p></span></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">

on the porch floor. They weren’t used to sitting on dusty floors, but they had
to since there was no other place to sit on. At the same time, the couple
glared at each other, completely angry. <o:p></o:p></span></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">

<i><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"> “What is wrong with you and
children?!” Miley hissed, almost slamming the wooden floor. “You always think
they’re annoying things, well you’re annoying as well!” Yup, they often fight
about this whenever Miley adored kids.<o:p></o:p></span></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">

<i><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"> “Because they will only cause
problems, mess, and chaos! That is why I don’t want us to have our own child!”
Michael hissed back. His wife tucked a strand of her long ginger hair and
sighed deeply, sinking her eyes down in despair. Sometimes she wondered why she
married this guy. <o:p></o:p></span></i></div>

<br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><i><span style="font-family: "high tower text" , "serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"> Defeated, Miley massaged her temples. “Fine…
We won’t adopt her as our daughter </span></i><i><span style="font-family: "high tower text" , "serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">until she does her work perfectly. I really

<i><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"> “Not a single flaw, okay? We also need
to know her loyalty and kindness before we adopt her.” Michael still sounded
stern and a little bit furious. Miley nodded. <o:p></o:p></span></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">

public school and also buy good clothes for her.” <o:p></o:p></span></i></div>

<i><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"> The two entered the shack again to
talk to Elsa and her father again. Miley told the girl’s father that she and
her husband would accept to hire Elsa. After stuffing up her stuffs into a
rumpled sling bag, Elsa carried her Golden Retriever dog, Lucky, outside to
meet Miley and Michael. She waved back at her father who was carrying a bag of
money and a few items which were given from the rich couple. <o:p></o:p></span></i></div>

<i><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"> Since that day, Elsa got separated
from her father to live with the Underwood. At first, their family was a bit
uncomfortable with her presence. But not long after that, they all became
welcoming and friendly to Elsa. Back to California, Elsa became a cooking and
laundry maid. </span></i><br />

<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">“We’ll back in 4 weeks. Stay out of trouble.” Miley touched
the tip of Elsa’s nose with a soft smile. Miley had been treating Elsa like her
daughter, only she doesn’t stand up to her when Elsa got punishment.</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span>

<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"> “You can crawl into the library anytime you like, Elsa. And
there are some candy bars and potato chips in the fridge, you can enjoy them
for a snack if you like.” Miley added. She knew how much her maid loves books,
so she decided to put on a little holiday for Elsa. “But no sneaking into our suite,
okay? In the meantime, try to improve your cooking.” <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">

coldly to his wife, and then turned to Elsa. “Don’t ever try to make a mess. Or
I will punish you with a lot of pinches when we get home.” <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"> “Come on Lucky! We’re going to the library!” The girl
laughed in joy as she took Lucky in her arms and brought him to the library
with her favorite book, ‘How to Steal a Dragon’s Jewel’ by Cressida Cowell.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">

<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span>

remembered yesterday’s promise.</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">

<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"> Elsa stopped her tracks and face-palmed. “Oh my God, I

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">

<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"> “Fine.” Lucky gave her a poker face which made her laugh; a
dog making a poker face, who knew? </span><br />
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Between the stacks of books on an antique wooden bookcase, Lucky
found a book that interested him: ‘Desserts That Don’t Require an Oven’.</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"> “What’s this?” He asked inquisitively. The ginger-haired
Golden Retriever dog grabbed the book in between his teeth and carried it to
the table where Elsa was busy reading a new book – more like an encyclopedia – called
‘Electricity & Magnets’. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"> “It’s just a boring cookbook, Lucky. What’s the benefit of
reading a cookbook? You can’t learn how to cook from a book.” Elsa looked at
the cookbook Lucky brought boringly which made the dog look displeased. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"> “How can you know if you never tried?” Lucky shoved Elsa out of her
seat. “Come on! Let’s try these amazing recipes.” The two walked into the
kitchen downstairs. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"> Lucky quickly flipped open the cookbook and the pages
stopped on a dessert called Nuttella Cheesecake. He licked the edge of his lips
before grabbing the ingredients for the food from the fridge. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span>

tasted Elsa’s work of food, and once he finished the whole dessert, a smile

the other recipes were a lot of fun. They made pancakes with Green Tea Kit Kats
for the topping, Mint Oreo Icebox Cake, Ferrero Rocher Pie, and some S’mores
Bars. The two shared the treats they made with Heathcliff and the other maids, meanwhile
doing that, Lucky stayed shut, not talking a single word, just barks. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

kind butler opened the limo’s back door which revealed Miley in jeans, a plaid
scarf and a plain red blouse & Michael in jeans also, plain green scarf and
a horizontal-striped shirt. It was quite chilly outside, considering that it’s
almost winter and its night time. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt;"><br /></span>

<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt;"><br /></span>

<span style="font-family: inherit;"> “Hugging
Elsa. Is it a problem?”</span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt;"> “She’s
your maid! Filthy, stupid maid! Don’t you ever hug her again!” More harsh and
cold words came out of Michael’s mouth to Miley. Of course, Elsa was a bit
offended with his words. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt;"> “Alright,
alright.” <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt;"><br /></span>

<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt;"> Wait.
What’s that smell? Delicious scent of food and warm beverages floated out
of the golden-walled dining room. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt;"> “What’s
that delicious smell?” Michael inquired suspiciously as he slowly entered the
dining room. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt;"> And
there he saw…food and warm beverages settled down nicely on the marbled dining
table finished with the beautiful arrangements of plates, bowls, and cups &
glasses. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt;"> “<i>Bon appetite</i>, Sir.” Elsa said happily,
feeling really satisfied with all her work. Yes, reader, all of the
arrangements and design for Michael & Miley’s ‘Welcome Home’ event,
especially the dinner. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt;"> Elsa
helped Miley settle down on a golden-colored fabric-covered chair, as well as
Heathcliff to Michael. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt;"> “Here
we have roasted Cajun Meat Loaf and fries for main course, Lobster salad for
starters, and different desserts; Red Velvet Cheesecake Scones for Michael,
& Ferrero Rocher Pie for Miley. Enjoy…” The little chef, Elsa, introduced
the food to the Underwood couple. “Oh, for beverages, we’re serving warm Nutmeg
& Cinnamon Eggnogs.” She added. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt;"> “Thank
you, Elsa.” Michael thanked the little maid, – for the first time – happily. “I
hope these will be delicious.” <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt;"> The
Underwood couple finished their whole food and drink in exactly the perfect
pace as mannered people should. As the two wiped the some leftover crumbs from
their lips with lovely embroidered napkins, Michael said. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt;"> “Elsa,
I have to say, your food is really delicious!” <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt;"> “Thanks.”
<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt;"> “And
we really wish that you would accept our offer to be our first daughter…” What
Miley and Michael last said was beyond of Elsa’s wildest dreams or wishes. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt;"> The
couple both agreed to adopt Elsa because she had achieved something incredible
for them both, and because Miley really wished to have a child as bright as
Elsa for a long time. It took a while for Michael to realize that she’s a
special child who can melt the heart of a cold person and that she doesn’t
deserve a slave life like this, not after all this. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt;"> “Really?”
Elsa rubbed her eyes in disbelief. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt;"> “Yes.”
Miley giggled and Michael smiled at Elsa’s reactions. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt;"> “I-I…”
Elsa took a short glance at Lucky who secretly spied at them from the kitchen
and now, gave his master a trusting wink. “…I’d love to.” <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt;"> The
couple squealed happily as they hugged their now daughter before Lucky revealed
himself to them. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt;"> “And
welcome to the family too, Lucky!” Michael embraced Lucky with a hug too. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "high tower text" , "serif"; font-size: 14.0pt;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"> The
next day, after signing the adoption papers, they all became a complete happy
family, and as a bonus Michael was now not as arrogant and selfish as before.
All thanks to the lucky dog…Lucky. </span><span style="font-family: "high tower text" , serif; font-size: 14pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Forest fires in Indonesia have increased
dramatically during 2014 and 2015. And it causes tree cover loss that is needed
by the mammals and birds that require the trees’ shelter and food. Tree cover
loss is the removal or death of trees. Indonesia and Brazil remain important
for their size and as major laboratories of forest policy. Indonesia is also
the sixth highest greenhouse gas-emitting countries in the world.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Land use change is the largest contributor to
emissions in both countries, causing nearly 45% of total emissions in Brazil
and 55% in Indonesia. After a reported drop in tree cover loss in 2013,
conservationists and government officials were hopeful that their efforts to
reduce deforestation were paying off. Sadly, deforestation activities increased again
in 2014. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Riau has the largest loss, and almost all occurs
within oil palm and wood fiber concession areas. The main causes of
deforestation in Indonesia, as well as many other countries, are cattle
ranching, the creating vast areas for housing and urbanization, harvesting trees
to create paper and tissue we use every day, and the growing of palm trees to
produce oil for cooking. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

water from causing floods, and they anchor the soil from erosion. Without

<i><span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">BRAKK!<o:p></o:p></span></span></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Bau debu dari buku-buku lama dan barang-barang antik,
mengalir menusuk hidungku. Tanganku mencoba meraih di dalam gulita, mencari
saklar lampu di permukaan dinding berbeledu. Ketika tiba-tiba, aku merasa sebuah
saklar tepat dibawah jari-jariku. Aku menekan tombolnya. <i>CLIK! </i>Hmm… Tak ada yang terjadi. Clik! Clik! sekali lagi kuulangi.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">“Ayah! Lampunya tidak bisa nyala.” aku memanggil
keluar, sedikit sebal kepada ayahku yang sedang membongkar garasi mobil
kami. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Meskipun suasana rumah yang baru saja kami ambil
alih dari pemiliknya yang sudah renta, terasa sangat membosankan dan tua, ayah
dan ibu masih saja girang untuk pindah ke tempat ini. “Ah, tidak apa-apa kok,
sayang. Nanti ayah panggilkan tukang listrik kan gampang.” ayah menjawab,
senyum lebar terpampang di wajahnya, berjalan menghampiriku sambil memberikanku
tas duffel ungu . </span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Wajahnya berbelepot oli kering dan debu.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Aku tidak menunjukan wajah berperasaan sama sekali,
tanpa memberi jawaban kepada ayah, aku seakan menyeburkan diri ke dalam
kegelapan, tak peduli lagi. Suara sepatu bootku memukul anak tangga tua menuju
ke lantai dua, terdengar di dalam kegelapan ruangan. Semetara kedua tanganku tetap
meraba ke sekeliling, mencari jalan menuju kamarku di loteng. <br />
<i><br /></i></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><i>Clop, clop, clop</i>. <br /><br />
</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Selama berjalan menuju kamar loteng, aku sering menabrak furnitur antik yang ditempatkan
di sepanjang lorong. “Ugh, kenapa sih banyak sekali furnitur disini? Aku pikir
semuanya sudah dibuang atau dipindahkan ke tempat lain.” gerutu-ku. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Perjalanan menuju kamarku lumayan jauh. Mungkin
karena berjalan dalam kegelapan, pikirku. Akhirnya, tanganku merasakan sesuatu
bulat dan licin, menonjol dari permukaan yang sedikit kasar. </span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Aku menduga benda
ini adalah pintu kamar loteng; aku memutar kenop pintu tersebut dan
mendorongnya. Suaranya menghasilkan suara denyit tua yang menyeramkan. Sesuatu
berhasil menerangi ruangan. Cahaya yang masuk melalui jendela, dari balik
juntai tirai kelabu. Ah, mengapa harus kelabu, aku tidak menyukainya. Begitu
suram. Aku bisa melihat keseluruh ruangan. setiap sudutnya meski cahaya kecil
itu muncul dan tenggelam karena sapuan angin meniup tirai. menutup cahaya dan
terbuka lagi. Aku lupa menutup jendela kamar sore tadi. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Sebuah
ranjang besar dengan kanopi merah velvet dan tiang-tiang berukir anggur dengan
hiasan daun sulur, lemari antik besar kokoh coklat tua, dua pasangan kursi
berlengan dengan kain penutup warna tanah dan sebuah meja kopi di ujung ruangan
dekat jendela putih berhias tirai penutup dua lapis. Satu sisi tembok dipenuhi rak
buku putih menempel yang dilengkapi deretan buku-buku lama; membungkus atmosfir
dengan bau buku lama. Semua barang-barang ini cukup menangkap perhatianku,
tetapi tidak sebanyak perhatianku pada foto dalam pigora tua yang menggantung
miring di tembok kamar bagian sisi kiri dan kanan tempat tidur besar. Di foto
itu terdapat seorang anak kecil berkepang dan berbaju gaun putih sederhana. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Ia terlihat cantik, pikirku sambil bersenyum kecil.
Di ujung mataku, aku kira aku telah melihat sebuah bayangan anak kecil di pojok
ruangan; aku berputar memindai area tersebut untuk mencari petunjuk di sekitar
tempat itu. Sayangnya, bayangan itu hanya imaginasiku. Atau… mungkin tidak?<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Pagi hari berikutnya, di awal pagi, ibu dan ayah
sedang mengurus pajak rumah kami ke kota. Adikku masih terlihat tenang membaca novel
mini kesukaannya diata ayunan ranjang teras belakang. Sementara itu, aku sedang
mengeksplorasi taman belakang, sambil memainkan permainan hopscotch. Pada saat
itu, yang kukira hanya khayalanku belaka, ada seorang anak yang persis mirip
dengan anak perempuan di foto di kamarku, sedang berlari-lari melewatiku dan
menghilang di area pepohonan lebat, hutan pinus belakang rumah. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">“Hah?!” aku terlonjak kaget kebelakang. aku bertanya
kepada diriku sendiri, “Siapa sebenarnya gadis ini?” mengetuk dagu dengan
jariku, memperhatikan deretan pohon pinus, tempat gadis itu ditelan tak bersisa
bayangannya. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Makan malam tiba, dan kita semua sedang asyik
menikmati puding cokelat di ruang makan. Aku mengangkat suaraku. Kuceritakan tentang
anak perempuan yang aku lihat sejak kami pindah. Adikku, Emily, berpikir bahwa
itu hanya khayalan konyolku saja, dan dia mungkin saja benar. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">“Emily benar, Penelope. Mungkin itu hanya sekedar
imaginasi-mu saja.” ibu mengangguk, setuju, memanggilku dengan nama panjangku.
Ayah pun ikut setuju. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">“Ya,” aku menggantung kepalaku, menatap lantai,
“mungkin saja.” <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Sambil merapikan bantal dan ranjang, aku
menyenandungkan lagu Celine Dion yang dimainkan di radio. Malam itu, semua
orang dirumah sedang tidur di lantai bawah, kecuali aku yang masih tetap terbangun,
mendengarkan radio tua yang tidak dipakai di kamar itu. Tiba-tiba channel radio
berubah kacau balau. Percakapan-percakan orang dalam berita, dan lirik-lirik lagu
terpotong-potong, seakan menyusun kalimat. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">“<i>Kamu harus</i>.”
seorang pembawa acara berkata, lalu dipotong. “<i>Pergi</i>. <i>Dari sini</i>. <i>Dia akan</i>. <i>Membunuh</i>. <i>Mu</i>.” mulai dari
selebriti, nara sumber <i>talkshow</i>, dan
polisi berbicara dalam satu kalimat yang membuatku gugup. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Saat itu juga, aku merasa kakiku diseret. Sesosok
seperti pria besar dengan jari-jari panjang dan tajam, badannya tinggi, matanya
merah, dan dia membawa pisau yang sudah diasah tajam, menarikku kasar. Aku
tidak bisa berteriak, tidak bisa menjerit untuk meminta bantuan; suaraku
tenggelam, tidak bisa melakukan apa-apa untuk membantuku, aku diam saja,
menatap kosong pada makhluk tersebut. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">“Tolong.” aku hanya bisa berbisik dengan suara yang
serak. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Makhluk itu menyeretku sampai ke ruang kloset, dan
melemparku kedalam ruangan gelap. Kedua tanganku diikat dengan tali coklat. Aku
bukan penggemar kegelapan, tapi jika terpaksa, aku tidak keberatan. Tiba-tiba,
pintu terbuka lebar, menunjukkan sosok anak perempuan seperti anak yang berada
di foto di kamarku. Ia tersenyum manis, berjalan pelan-pelan menuju ke arahku,
dan memberikanku sebuah pisau. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Aku menggambilnya dengan telapak tanganku yang agak
longar, dan memotong tali yang mengikat. Bebas! aku memberinya ucapan terima
kasih, sebelum meluncur ke lantai bawah, mencari orang tua dan adikku. Aku
tidak meninggalkan satu pun tempat yang belum aku cari. Tapi, tidak ada
tanda-tanda dimana mereka berada atau kemana mereka pergi. Saat aku mulai
kehilangan harapan, aku mendengar tembakan keras dari lantai atas. Aku segera
berlari menuju tempat dimana suara itu berasal, dan menemukan pria yang mencoba
membunuhku di lantai dengan lubang peluru di dadanya. </span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Ayah, ibu, dan adikku
semua ada di sebelahnya, duduk ketakutan. Tidak ada satu pun dari mereka
membawa pistol. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Aku tersenyum lega; keluargaku diselamatkan oleh
hantu perempuan.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Suara pintu depan terbuka terdengar dari lantai
atas, hantu itu pergi keluar dari rumah. Dia sekarang bebas dari tugasnya untuk
membunuh siapapun pria itu. Tugasnya untuk menyelamatkan keluarga yang akan
tinggal dirumah ini selesai. </span></span></div>

<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">A queen dressed in white-grey coat was taking a
walk through the forest. She was a queen from a faraway kingdom called
Crescentia, and her name was Eadlyn. She was a greedy and mean queen. She loved
gold and all shiny stuff. Although the queen was mean and greedy, she was very
beautiful; she had hair as dark as dark chocolate, and eyes as green as grass. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">When she was in the middle of her stroll, she saw
the tree of Golden Apples The tree of Golden Apples was known for its shimmering golden apples that could give everlasting beauty. She ran to the tree and picked the golden apples.
Just when she was picking one of the apples, an invisible door opened from the
bark of the tree that leads to an underground chamber. The curious Eadlyn
tiptoed down the path and the door immediately locked her inside as soon as she
stepped in. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">She was imprisoned inside the tree for six months. Yet,
she still survived without food, water, or warmth of fire. Day after day, the
queen transformed into a hideous beast that reflected the unwanted bad
personality inside of her. It was a curse for her greediness. And she was ready
to break out of her prison. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Six months later – after years of being trapped and
not being found – the Crescentia kingdom had a new ruler; Queen Eadlyn’s niece,
Princess Isla. The princess was really kind, friendly, intelligent, and
generous. She was more beautiful than her own aunt Eadlyn; she had shimmering golden
hair and endless blue eyes. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">One snowy night, when everyone had fallen asleep,
Queen Eadlyn was in her hideous beastly new look, she quietly plunged out of
the tree and crept into the nearest village to kill her used-to-be subjects.
The curse had caused her to become a true monster. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">She broke the hinge of one of the villagers’ door
and slid quietly into the main bedroom, where a farmer and his wife were
sleeping with their baby in their arms. She held up a golden dagger as pointy
as a spindle on a spinning wheel, and stabbed. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Meanwhile, Princess Isla was in the throne room,
receiving terrible news from her guards about the multiple murdering happening
in the villages. She panicked, until one of the royal guards volunteered to end
the beast once and for all. The young ruler didn’t know that the monster was
actually her aunt Eadlyn; the former ruler of Crescentia. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Soon, the royal guard found himself encountering
the beast. And just when the beast was about to scratch its deadly claws into
his face, in a quick flash, he sliced the beast to half; putting an end to it. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">There are about five parts of our respiratory system
that helps us breath; the nose, windpipe, air tube, lungs, and last but not

they’re very important and we have to keep them healthy at all times. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

the air around us, while its ‘hair’ collects and removes particles dust that is
contained within the air we inhale. When the air we breathe is on its way to
the lungs, they travel past through the windpipe. The windpipe does not only
lead to our nose, but to our mouth as well. That is why we can breathe from our
mouth when we part and inhale through it. The air soon reaches to two big air
tubes which branches into tinier tubes in our lungs, and at the end of every
tiny tube, there are clusters of bubble-shaped-like air sacs. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">The air sacs are very important, because they help
store oxygen and get rid of carbon dioxide. How?<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">As the air rich in oxygen we inhale fills in the air
sacs, the carbon dioxide that is carried by blood rushes in, replacing the
oxygen’s place and at the same time, the oxygen replaces the carbon dioxide’s
place. And when we exhale, the carbon dioxide is pushed and forced out of the
air sacs and journey through the windpipe, ending up blowing out of our body. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Like every other body systems, our respiratory
system has its illnesses and diseases. There are about three of them that you
should mainly know; Asthma, Emphysema, and Lung cancer. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">ASTHMA<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Asthma is mainly caused by allergies, or a specific
infectious and dangerous substance. Symptoms of Asthma are wheezing, shortness
of breath, or even coughing. If you or one of your friends or family has those
symptoms, immediately give them medicines and therapies under doctor’s orders
and visualization.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">People suffering from Asthma can cure well when they
are given regular therapies, a few medicines, and most importantly, they have
to stay away from the things that give them allergies. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">EMPHYSEMA<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Emphysema is the enlargement of air sacs. As they larges,
they would burst, leaving a hole at the end of the air tubes. When this
happens, the air that we breathe would directly fill the next cluster of air
sacs. The cycle goes on and on, until most parts of our lungs are damaged.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Symptoms of Emphysema are mainly wheezing or
shortness of breathes. Emphysema occurs usually when you inhale smoke from
smokers, or you actually do smoke. Therapies and medicines won’t take effect
unless you stop smoking at once. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">LUNG CANCER<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Lung cancer is a formation of tumor in your lungs.
It is generally caused by smoking, inhaling deadly gases or pollution, or you
may have a family history of lung cancer. When tumor slowly forms from time to
time, several parts of your lungs would be severely damaged. Photos of people
suffering from lung cancer are usually placed on the back of cigarette boxes,
but somehow, the smokers didn’t really pay attention or probably, they just
wanted to kill themselves for fun. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Wheezing, shortness of breathes are two of the symptoms
of lung cancer. As soon as those symptoms appear, immediately stop smoking or
therapies won’t take effect – such as most respiratory system illnesses. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

a dark, cold snowy night replaced the crispy, auburn sky,</span></span><span style="font-family: "bodoni mt" , "serif"; font-size: 16pt; line-height: 115%;"> </span><span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">a little girl was placing herself on top of a broken branch which
fell on the ground as she peered through a broken, shattered mirror, touching
every feature of herself that she didn’t recognize. White hair, sickening pale
skin, silver painted nails – she ran them through her white hair and waved her
slim fingers in front of her…ruby red eyes. Dust engulfed her in alluring sapphire
blue sparkles, creating patterned frost at the tip of the fractured piece of
glass. The girl wasn’t aware of a beautiful phoenix locking its curious eyes at her odd
features and rare, bewitching powers.</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"> The phoenix
attempted its best to not startle the little girl from her place, and it
flapped its wings as gentle as it could until not even a mouse would hear such
flapping from a close distance. As soon as it was close enough to approach the
girl, she spun her head rapidly, startling the phoenix as well. Her skin was so
pale, her body was as thin as a small spine, her ribs and hip bones were almost
as if it wanted to break through the boundary that was separating the inside
from the outside. Just staring at her weak expression almost caused the phoenix
want to escape its tears from its eyes. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

smiled warmly, but didn’t listen.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

masculine voice she wondered if she had heard it before. <i>He</i> was smiling at her; a mythical creature. No one has ever smiled
that kind ever since her dear mother past away…because of her. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

fractures of ice sprung from under the ground, they were so sharp and pointy

safe enough. The ice broke one of his wings; some of the feathers were plucked
off, the point of the wing was severely damaged and slightly curved. He

REPRODUCTION<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;">Asexual
reproduction is the simplest form of reproduction. It requires only one parent.
The young produced is a clone of the parent. A clone is a copy of its parent. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;">Example
of asexual reproduction, one of the starfish’s arm separates or unattached from
the starfish and starts to form slowly into another starfish that looks like
its parent. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;">Pretty
cool, huh? The starfish doesn’t need to mate with another starfish to
reproduce. It can reproduce by itself.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;">SEXUAL
REPRODUCTION</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;">Meanwhile,
sexual reproduction needs two living organisms to reproduce. They have to mate
or get married first. The reproduction requires two genders; a female and a
male.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;">A
male has an organ which produces reproduction cells called Sperm Cells. A
female also has an organ which produces reproduction cells called the Egg.
Those two cells fuse together to produce a baby. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="line-height: 115%;">Many
Sperm Cells can get to the Egg but only one Sperm cell can fuse with the Egg.
Once the Sperm and the Egg fuses together, the Egg is already fertilized. Then,
the fertilized Egg slowly develops into a baby, completed with ears, eyes, a
nose and the rest of its organs.</span><span style="line-height: 115%;">The
developing might take about 9 months and the baby will be born after those 9
months. </span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;">There
are two different ways to reproduce sexually; some animals reproduce
internally, and some animals reproduce externally.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;"> </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;">Frogs
and Fish are examples of animals that reproduce externally. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;">The
female Frog first lays the Eggs on a place which the Eggs can attach to. Then,
the male Frog points their genital (penis) to the Eggs and spreads out his
Sperm Cells to the Eggs. So, the Eggs are fertilized outside the body of their
parents’. Frogs and Fish’s way of reproduction is the same. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;"> </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;">That
reproduction way is called External Reproduction. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;">First,
the female Butterfly and male Butterfly fuses their Sperm Cells and Eggs

on a leaf. The Eggs first cracks up into a Caterpillar, when the Caterpillar
finishes eating lots of food, they made a soft silky cocoon for them to sleep
in for months. After those months had past, the Caterpillar starts to develop
and turn into an adult Butterfly.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

9 months until the cub’s body parts & organs are completed. After those 9

<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Our circulatory system is made up of the heart,
blood vessels, and the blood they contain. These parts of the circulatory
system play an important role in keeping our body healthy and, well, alive. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Our heart is the most vital organ in our body that
pumps blood all the time through all parts of our body. Our heart is made of a
special muscle called the heart muscles; they help our heart pump blood to all
parts and organs in our body restlessly. We cannot control our heart muscles,
because it needs to pump all the time in order to survive. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Blood vessels are tubes that carry blood in and out
of the heart to every part of our body – since our other organs and body parts
need blood to keep working. Some blood vessels carry blood out of our heart and
to other body parts, and some blood vessels carry blood back to our heart. There
are two colors of blood vessels inside our body; blue ones which flow blood
rich in carbon dioxide and other waste materials, and red ones which flow blood
rich in oxygen, water and digested food. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Blood which contains inside our blood vessels
carries important supplies such as oxygen, digested food, and water to all
parts of our body. It also carries carbon dioxide, unhealthy digested food, and
dangerous liquid. And soon, they will be disposed out of our body. But, if our
body does not digest and consume good stuff almost all the time, our blood will
become unhealthy and so will other parts of our body – including our heart. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">This system is called the circulatory system because
it circulates or moves blood from our heart, around our body, and back to our
heart again. Our circulatory system moves blood in two part: one that flows out
of our heart to other parts of our body, and one that flows from all parts of
our body back to our heart. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Our heart pumps the blood rich in oxygen to all the
cells in our body. They need the oxygen and digested food to produce the energy
they use to carry out their functions. Our blood also transports digested food
and water from our digestive system to all parts and cells of our body. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">As blood goes around the body, it picks up carbon
dioxide and other waste substances that the cells produced. On its way back to
our heart, blood passes the waste substances to some organs which eventually
pass out the waste materials out of our body. When blood reaches the lungs, the
carbon dioxide is sent to the lungs, and the lungs would release the carbon
dioxide into the air and take in oxygen as we breathe. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Each heartbeat is a cycle of contraction and
relaxation of our heart muscles. With every heartbeat, blood is pumped through
our heart and pushes the blood through our blood vessels. These pushes are made
by a ripple that spreads outwards from our heart and through our blood vessels
to push blood to the parts of our body. This is known as a pulse. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">We can take in our pulse by pressing two fingers on
our wrist, where our blood vessels are close to our skin. The number of pulses
in a minute is called our pulse rate. Our pulse rate shows us how many times
does our heart beats in each a minute. This is called our heart rate as well.
The heart rate of a healthy adult is about 60 to 70 times per minute. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">A baby or child’s heart rate can reach up to about
120 times in a minute. An average adult’s heart can beat about 60 to 90 times
per minute. And an elderly person’s heart rate can reach until about 60 to 80
times each minute. The heart rate of a healthy person is usually slower than
that of a sick person. A fast heart rate is a sign that means you’re ill. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">When we exercise, our heart rate becomes faster and
faster. This happens because our organs need to work faster in order to bring
more blood to carry out the activities and produce energy. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Hypertension is also known as high blood pressure.
It can lead to other medical conditions such as arteriosclerosis, heart attack,
stroke, and kidney failure. Hypertension can be caused by smoking, a diet high
in fat or salt, being overweight, lack of exercise and even a high stress level
in our life. Eating too much junk food or not doing enough activities can also
cause hypertension. Some adults may experience this kind of illness because of
their high stress level.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">A healthy diet is very important for the proper
functioning of our circulatory system, if we have a diet with too much fat,
fatty substances may collect the inner walls of the arteries. Arteries are the
blood vessels that carry blood from the heart to all parts of our body. Over
time, the walls which are covered in the fatty substances stiffen. Now this
condition is called arteriosclerosis. Blood flow becomes restricted and blocked.
Blood clots may develop in the blood vessels, and such clots could lead to a
heart attack or stroke. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

happens when we run low of red blood cells in our body. Since these blood cells
carry oxygen to the parts of our body, there will be a lack of oxygen carried
by the cells in our body. Anemia is caused by a lack of iron in our diet or a
large blood loss. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14pt; line-height: 115%;">Digested food is then absorbed into
the blood in the circulatory system as they carry them to the parts of our body
and cells. During breathing, oxygen enters the lungs. At the same time, carbon
dioxide carried by blood is released in the lungs so they can quickly dispose
them when we breathe out, and then blood carries the oxygen to our body. </span></div>

Oxygen is absorbed into the blood in the circulatory system. Digested food and

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 15.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-fareast-font-family: FangSong;"> What I really love about ‘Inside Out’
is that the movie and story drives out the emotion of its watcher, and at the
same time, it teaches us about growing up and life itself. That’s what happened
to me and my friend; we started to weep some tears at the struggle parts in the
movie. This animated science-fiction
drama movie attracted buyers to watch this movie, and turned out the film was
the first best box office movie by the second week it was in the cinema! <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 15.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-fareast-font-family: FangSong;">Beginning with the emotions which
control the girl’s – whose name is Riley – brain, mind, and thoughts, and build
up her 5 personality islands. That was also the scene when Riley first came to
the world. The emotions were; Joy who keeps Riley happy most of the time, Fear
who keeps Riley safe from any possible danger, Anger who…well controls Riley’s
anger, Disgust who prevents Riley from being poisoned and looks well-looking,
and lastly, Sadness who mostly gets sided by Joy. Who gets the dominant position?
Yes, Joy. According to the director, the characters were made by glowing
energy, instead of skin and solid – and that technically made the movie much
more interesting. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 15.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-fareast-font-family: FangSong;">The adventure then starts off when
Riley and her family moved from her Midwest green town Minnesota to the traffic
centre town San Francisco. When they got there, Riley – as well as the emotions
– was shocked at the dusty almost-deserted neighborhood they were going to live
in. The emotions began to panic as Riley’s day there wasn’t as perfect and
cheerful as Joy had planned. In those days, Riley felt really miserable, and
Joy tried everything she could do about it. Meanwhile, Sadness tried everything
she could to prove herself that she was useful and has a purpose to be created
like the others, only to be pushed aside as usual by Joy. On the first day of
school, Sadness touched one of the core memories of Riley – which are the
memories that build up the personality islands – causing it to turn blue,
representing sadness. Joy tried to stop her, but both ended up outside the
headquarters and into the maze of memories where they store Riley’s daily
memories. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 15.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-fareast-font-family: FangSong;">The two began their journey to come
back to the headquarters, before things get worse. Along the way, they met Bing
Bong; Riley’s hilarious childhood imaginary friend. Facing ups and down as they
unraveled from core memory to daily memory, they learned that there can’t
always have to be one dominant emotion, there are times where emotions has to
be combined with each other to create a unique personality, and that’s what
makes you special and different from others.

<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 15.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-fareast-font-family: FangSong;">Back in the headquarters, Disgust,
Fear and Anger have problems of their own; Riley was sad, angry and her best
friend is best friends with another person, and they couldn’t do anything about
it. She couldn’t even smile a bit. Frustrated, Anger decided that if the only
thing that could make Riley happy is to go back to her hometown in Minnesota,
then he’ll transfer an idea for Riley to escape and run away back to the
Minnesota. Disgust agreed, but Fear wasn’t so sure about the idea. Two over one
wins, and so they transferred the idea into the control console – which
controls the whole brain – and Riley set off, booking a quick bus. But then,
the console turned black, also known as; Riley is emotionless and they couldn’t
control her to come back when they realized that the idea was going to cause
things to worsen. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 15.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-fareast-font-family: FangSong;"> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 15.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-fareast-font-family: FangSong;">Fortunately, Joy and Sadness arrived
back right on time, and saved Riley with mostly the help of Sadness. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 15.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-fareast-font-family: FangSong;"> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 15.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-fareast-font-family: FangSong;">Happiness sometimes doesn’t have to be
created by cheerfulness or having fun, sometimes it can be created by crying or
weeping and letting your emotions and beautiful memories flow across your mind
as you remember them. Being moved is a great way to let your problems and
memories pass by, and after you cry, you’ll feel good and happy inside, causing
you to smile afterwards. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 15.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-fareast-font-family: FangSong;"> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 15.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-fareast-font-family: FangSong;">What I have also learned in ‘Inside
Out’ is that unique personalities can only be formed by not only one emotion
such as Joy – who created only happy core memories and normal personality
islands – but by multiple of emotions. They can be mixed up with other emotions
which then forms more unique and colorful islands. As what I have told you
before; those personalities are the things that make you special and different
from one another. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 15.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-fareast-font-family: FangSong;"> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 15.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-fareast-font-family: FangSong;">In my opinion, the strongest
characters in the movie are Sadness and Joy. You might think I pick them
because they are the main characters, but there’s actually something more in
them that makes them special. Joy is happy, bubbly, and very optimistic, and she
taught us how to always think positive and find a new angle to solve a problem.
Sadness, although she is sad and a bit gloomy, she taught us that it’s okay to
be sad about something because it will lead you to happiness later. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 15.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-fareast-font-family: FangSong;"> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 15.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-fareast-font-family: FangSong;">For me, the best quote that gave me
the spirit from ‘Inside Out’ is;<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 15.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-fareast-font-family: FangSong;"> “You can’t focus on what’s going
wrong. There’s always a way to turn things around!” Joy cheered Sadness, who
was lying on the floor. I think what this quote is trying to tell us is that
even in the hardest and darkest times you can always find a way to turn things
around and find the fun & light in there.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 15.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-fareast-font-family: FangSong;"> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 15.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-fareast-font-family: FangSong;">‘Inside Out’ is by far the greatest
Pixar movie that made me so moved than the other Pixar movies. I love the
bubbly characters, the amazing plot and cast, because like most of the other
Pixar movies, this movie had taught me a great lesson about life, how to
control our emotions and the science of psychology. And I think it’s great that
Pixar made a movie that shows it’s difficult to grow up and move on, and it’s
okay to be sad about it. The movie ended wonderfully; Sadness finally got the
chance to prove herself that she’s important, and Joy learns that she give
others a chance because they too can make happiness for Riley somehow, although probably their way of making her
happy is not the same as her way.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Seorang guru di IWEC yang bernama Lalu Abdul Fatah baru saja menerima penghargaan sebagai Penulis Terbaik 2015. Sayangnya, dia tidak bisa datang ke acara penghargaan tersebut karena <b>satu kelas IWEC ingin ditraktir kak Lalu setiap hari, termasuk jajan sekolah. Akhirnya, kak Lalu menjadi bangkrut dan tidak bisa datang ke acara tersebut yang letaknya di Inggris. </b><i>Akhirnya kak Lalu melakukan kerja sebagai supir taksi, walau sudah menjadi supir, ternyata dia tidak dibayar, karena taksi itu gratis. </i></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Kak Lalu tidak patah semangat.<u style="font-style: italic;"> Kemudian dia menjadi penjual gorengan di pinggir jalan. Tetapi orang lain mengira itu adalah gorengan yang enak, ternyata, gorengan itu, SUNGGUH tidak enak dan kak Lalu menjadi bangkrut kembali. </u>Ternyata ada teman kak Lalu yang mencoba membantu. Dia menawarkan <u>tiket jalan kaki. Tetapi, tidak laku dijual habis. Terus, dia menawarkan kacang panas diatas gerbong kereta api dan akhirnya laku juga. Setelah beberapa hari terakhir tidak laku jual. </u></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Kak Lalu sedih, tapi dia akhirnya punya ide untuk <b><i>menjual racun tikus. Setelah beberapa hari, kak Lalu ditangkap polisi. Saat ada di sel penjara, ada teman kak Lalu yang menjamin kebebasannya dan memberangkatkan ke acara penghargaan itu di Inggris. </i></b> </span><br />

<span style="font-family: inherit;">If you do want to use your phone, try to use for something useful like reading latest news, follow important people and learn new things from them.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Instead of searching useless things in your phone, try to look for someone you can talk to or hang-out with. And if you want to draw with/in it or play music, better off hearing it in the radio or draw on a piece of paper.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #141823; line-height: 19.3199996948242px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">You want to play games in your phone, don't. Instead, read a book or play outdoor/board games with your friends. If you play with it all the time, it can affect your sociality.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #141823; display: inline; line-height: 19.3199996948242px; margin-top: 6px;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">So don't waste your time with your phone...</span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; font-family: inherit;">These family-oriented sheepdogs will stick to you no matter what. If you want a shadow following you around, a Sheltie will be the right dog for you.</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">7# German Shepherd</span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: inherit;">There's a reason that German Shepherds are the classic military and police dogs. Protective and highly loyal and intelligent, German Shepherds tend to establish loyalty to one person or its master, making them the ultimate sidekick.</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">6# Collie</span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: inherit;">Rough Collies are famous for their role as family protector, mostly due to Lassie. This Scottish herding dog is a one-human kind of pup, whose commitment knows no bounds.</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">5# Akita</span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: inherit;">Possibly the one breed that most people think about when they think of loyalty, the Akita comes from Japan. The well-known story of Hachiko, the Akita who waited for his owner at a train station every day, even after his owner's sudden death, is one of the dog kingdom's most incredible examples of faithfulness. </span><br />
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">4# Kuvasz</span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: inherit;"><span style="line-height: 19.2000007629395px; text-align: center;">This Hungarian breed was historically used as a royal guard dog. Highly independent (and therefore hard to train), this dog's name most likely comes from the Turkish word for protector. The breed appears in the film </span><em style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 19.2000007629395px; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-align: center; vertical-align: baseline;"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kuvasz" sl-processed="1" style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; margin: 0px; outline: none; padding: 0px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">Homeward Bound II: Lost in San Francisco</a></em><span style="line-height: 19.2000007629395px; text-align: center;">, as the pup Delilah.</span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="line-height: 19.2000007629395px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="line-height: 19.2000007629395px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="line-height: 19.2000007629395px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">3# St. Bernard</span></span></span><br />
<span style="line-height: 19.2000007629395px; text-align: center;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: inherit;">Mention a St. Bernard to anyone, and they'll probably picture a gigantic dog with a barrel around its neck. This working dog from the Swiss Alps was once used for rescues, but nowadays the barrel is just a symbol of the breed's famous reputation. Sweet and affectionate, it's easy to fall in love with this breed's calm demeanor and droopy face.</span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="line-height: 19.2000007629395px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="line-height: 19.2000007629395px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="line-height: 19.2000007629395px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">2# Labrador Retriever</span></span></span><br />
<span style="line-height: 19.2000007629395px; text-align: center;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: inherit;">The Lab is the classic family dog, which comes as no surprise to enthusiasts of the breed. Their trainability and affectionate personalities make some Labs great candidates for work as therapy and service dogs.</span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="line-height: 19.2000007629395px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="line-height: 19.2000007629395px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="line-height: 19.2000007629395px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">1# Siberian Husky</span></span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: inherit;">The Siberian Husky is a medium sized working dog. He is gentle, reliable and friendly, making him a good family companion to all ages. Inherent in the characteristics of the breed is also an alert outgoing clownish personality.
