Natural Phenomenon - How The Bees Make Their Hives Symmetrically

   Hey guys, what's going on? Now I'd like to describe something natural. Did you know about "Beehives" or "Honeycomb" ? Did you think that was amazing? look at all of hexagons, they were all symmertical! But how to they made them without the difference? Check this out.

  Well, this is a very old question. More than 2,000 years ago, in 36 B.C., a Roman soldier/scholar/writer, Marcus Terentius Varro, proposed an answer, which ever since has been called "The Honeybee Conjecture." Varro thought there might be a deep reason for this bee behavior. Maybe a honeycomb built of hexagons can hold more honey. Maybe hexagons require less building wax. Maybe there's a hidden logic here.

   Honeycombs, we all know, store honey. Honey is obviously valuable to bees. It feeds their young. It sustains the hive. It makes the wax that holds the honeycomb together. It takes thousands and thousands of bee hours, tens of thousands of flights across the meadow, to gather nectar from flower after flower after flower, so it's reasonable to suppose that back at the hive, bees want a tight, secure storage structure that is as simple to build as possible.

   So how to build it? Well, suppose you start your honeycomb with a cell like a totally random shape, no equal sides, just a squiggle.  If you start this way, what will your next cell look like? Well, you don't want big gaps between cells. You want the structure tight. So the next cell will have to be customized to cling to the first. And the third cell, once again, will have to be designed to fit the first two. Each cell would be a little different. For More illustration, you can see the picture here.





 So a "squiggle cell plan" creates idle bees. It wastes time. For bees to assemble a honeycomb the way bees actually do it, it's simpler for each cell to be exactly the same. If the sides are all equal — "perfectly" hexagonal — every cell fits tight with every other cell. Everybody can pitch in. That way, a honeycomb is basically an easy jigsaw puzzle. All the parts fit. OK, that explains why honeycomb cells are same-sized.

Culinary From Bandung - Tridaya Cafetaria

     



     Hello guys! Now I want to tell some culinary things from my lovely city. I'd like to describe some cafetaria near my school named Tridaya Cafetaria. It is located at Kalimantan way Bandung, which is integrated with Tridaya learning centre and "Pak Kumis" restaurant. Maybe this thing is not unique at all, but I love to eat here because it has many interesting delicious food for students at very affordable prices! Plus, it is near from the school so it's easy to get there after the school time was end.

 

  You can see we can get so many variation of food to be ordered here. From the famous local food like Fried Rice , Tutug Oncom , Rawon, until the oriental food like chicken katsu, burger, and yamien you can buy here at "student's budget". Cool, isn't it? Now let's check the beverages of this cafetaria.


 




     The first one you can see while you getting in, you can see "Lotek Karedok Rujak" counter. Like it's title, they sell some traditional food lotek, karedok, and rujak there. But not just that, they also sell seblak basah which it can be added with egg, and some baked rice family. I think this is the reccomended one, because the food was nice and cheap. Plus, you will get some free tea if you buy some food there. The price of the foods is around 4.000 until 18.000 rupiah.





   Beside the "Lotek Karedok Rujak" counter, there was "Lomie Ayam Bakso". This is all about noodles. They sell some basic noodles, lomie, and yamien which is served by swered chiken instead. You can choose basic which is only the noodles with swered chicken, with plus meatballs, and special one that filled with pangsit. Their noodles cooked well and have good taste, but served not much at one portion. But that's good enough remember you can get them just only from 7.000 - 16.000 rupiah.

   The third row is " Rawon Soto " stand. This is one of my favorite here, because I like this traditional javanese food rawon and the seler was very kind. He sells only two things, rawon and soto like it's title. He cook with heart and serve the food with big amount of rice in one portion, so the food was delighted and delicious. If you want to get some rice again or get plus boiled egg, you just pay 1.000 rupiah more to get them. The price of the food per portion is around 8.000 until 18.000 rupiah.


  The next one is " Basreng Pisang Keju" and "Sop Buah & Aneka Jus. The owners of this stand is in one family, so they cooperate so much. At Basreng stand, they also sell Indomies, the local instant noodles and some french fries . The cheese banana is also quite delicious, but i haven't tried the Basreng and french fries. But I bet that was delicious from their looks. At Sop Buah stand, there are some refreshing fruit soup and juices that served cold. This thing will be exquisite to be consumed when the sunny or hot day. My favorite from here is guava juice, because it was healthy but yummy.

   Beside of that, you can see " Sari Rasa " counter. He sells some Baso Tahu Goreng or Batagor for short, and Siomay. He cooked them with healthy oil, so we can trust that the food is safe. The taste is normally good, and has a normal price in 7.000 rupiah per portion, and 2.000 rupiah if you want to buy one-by-one. The little one counter beside of " Sari Rasa " is " Chicken Katsu " , which is speacialized Chiken Katsu and also sells some burger there. They uses some simple integredients, but usually cooked well so the taste was so good. The prices is around 5.000 until 15.000 rupiah.

 
    And but not least is " Nasi Goreng dan Kwetiauw " , they sell the things that almost we can found in all cafetarias. But it's hard to get the good taste from all cafetarias who sell this. This two "couple food" at here is one of the yummy. We can order some with some options. There is normal, plus egg, plus sausage, plus seafood, and special option. The special option is filled by all the toppings. The price of Fried rice and Kwetiauw is same. So, the normal option of them is at 8.000 rupiah, plus one topping is at 11.000 rupiah, and the special one is 15.000 rupiah.

   Now we can see how much types the culinary from Bandung. At the cheap price, you can get all these with well and not bad foods. I hope this is helping for the students which have not much budget and want to eat some good foods. Especially for who that school at the near place or Tridaya college students. Thank you for ur attention ;)

My Holiday

    Hello there! long time no post. Well, now I want to tell about my first holiday while studying at SMAN 3. I was very happy that we can get a 'free time' after we get so much tasks and exams at our school. But unfortunately, this holiday is not as beautiful as I expected. This holiday actually just like prayer-eat-play at home-sleep-repeat, and play with some friends sometimes. I was expected before this holiday gonna be exciting with going far out from the city. But that wasn't come true that makes me a little dissapointed.

   The first reason is the first day of the holiday I was sick. I got fever for 4 days, then my dad got the same fever for one week. Because of this fever, we didn't going anywhere. The second reason is my parents is going to buy some house. So, we must saving much money and notgoing somewhere far. And the final reason is my mother was very busy at work. Well, these problems makes the holiday being little boring.

     But this was not bad enough, because there are some things that makes me happy. Started from the second week of holiday, my big brother bring me some box to me. And that box are the box for Nintendo 3DS,the game console that I always wanted before. But unluckily, we got pink body color of that, altough we are all boys. But I don't really care, the main point is for playing some cool games. I really love this console and play it everyday while this holiday.

 

  
     

      Then the "new year's eve" is coming! My mom brings so many foods and drinks for celebrating the new year. We baked some corns and meats with soda and juice for the drinks. They are so delicious! so we were busy to eat them while waiting until 0.00 A.M with the crowd of beautiful fireworks colored the sky. We saw them popping out at the balcony of our house.




      And finally I and my big brother going to Jakarta. We must accompany our grandmother and grandfather there. We using some travel to get there. At Jakarta, we always eat expensive foods with grandma and grandpa. They were very happy because that we can accompany them altough there were quiet. We travel around Jakarta that makes me more happier. Plus, our cousin was there so we aren't bored and playing some games together.



  I can't describe this holiday feelings because there was little boring but exciting. But this is much better than the busy time of school (lol)

   Hi! today I will post some interesting fictional story. This story was inspirated from the famous Anime from Japan, Naruto. This part describes the beginning of this Anime serial. Keep reading and enjoy!


 

   Once upon a time,there was a hero who saved the peaceful village from an attack by the vicious beast. The legendary big nine tailed monster called Kyuubi suddenly come to destroy the village. The hero was truly risked his life defending the village. His bravery bring him to fight that strong monster. He is the leader of the village,Minato Namikaze.




 “Did you notice me?” Minato stands up the big rock. “Prepare to die!” Kyuubi grew very angry. “It’s fine,but i can’t let you destroy the village.”  Minato replied. “Uuh,shut up little people! I’m your opponent!” Kyuubi attacks Minato. He direct Kyuubi far away from the village. But he worried about his wife,Kushina and his newly born son,Naruto. While directing, he hides and spending time to get to his house. He want to ask something to Kushina. 





 “Kushina, i know this is dangerous. But i must do this plan.” Minato talked fastly. “What plan?” Kushina replied. “I will seal the monster to Naruto’s body.” Minato asked quietly. “Are you crazy? I think today was very happy because we gave birth to our son and you try to break it?” Kushina replied shockly. “Don’t worry,Naruto will be OK. But maybe i will die” Minato asked sadly. “No! i want to see Naruto grew with you! I love you,so i can’t let you die.” Kushina replied and crying a little. “But it’s for the village. I’m the leader,so i must protect them.” Minato hugged Kushina.

  Finally,Kushina agreed with him and joined him directing Kyuubi. Naruto can’t stop crying. Kushina snuggled Naruto and says “It will be OK” many times. Finally they found the fit place to do the plan. Naruto was putted on the grass and Minato preparing to sealing. Kushina protects Naruto and supporting Minato.


  “All is ready. It’s time to do all.” Minato asked seriously. “What do you want to do?” Kyuubi asked Minato rudely. “Just watch yourself being sealed.” Minato replied calmly. “Never! Don’t hope too much!” Kyuubi attacked Minato. “Oooaaa...” Naruto crying more loudly. “It will be OK,Naruto..” Kushina still said that while Naruto crying. “Graaaah!” Kyuubi attacked Naruto and Kushina. “Kushina! Naruto! Are you okay?” Minato brings all of his power to sealing Kyuubi. “Aaaaahh..i will be attacking the village while i broke Naruto’s body soon!” Kyuubi screamed and being sealed.
    


    The plan was success. But Kushina was attacked by Kyuubi before. So Minato and Kushina is going to die. At the last time of their life,they asked the thing to Naruto and crying above him.“We’re sorry, Naruto. We must leave you alone to grew bigger. But don’t worry,you still having a village. You can find out the friends there that will be accompany you. Don’t be a naughty person, be a good and honest person. I believe you can.” Kushina asked much. “What did i want to say i same with your fussy mother,Naruto.” Minato asked after. “Goodbye,Naruto..We will always be in your heart..” They hugged crying Naruto and died together. 
    
    It will be the unforgottable history of the village. The two hero who survived the village and sacrified their lives. Their son,Naruto grew naughty and being lonely. But he was a hero like his father. All of the village people finally loves him too.

Amazing Structure - Pasupati Park!

 

    Hello! Today I will presenting my 5th post on this blog. Yes, This is about some amazing place (for me) at my city. That is Pasupati Park, some unique park which it's located under the Pasupati flyover. This park is designed by our lovely Mayor, Ridwan Kamil about one year ago. His brilliant idea to made some park under the flyover which is not avaible at other cities make this unique and many people came to visit this park.

 


     

    The first part of this park is "Taman Jomblo". This is designed for the alone and single people (Like me,sad :( ) to hang out. You can feel alone so much without your girl/boyfriend with sit at the cube chairs that designed for only one people. But don't be sad, you can use the fast free wifi there. And hope you can find your crush there (lol)




 

      The second sector is skateboard park. This is designed for you that loves skate with your skateboard or roller skates. Don't worry, you can feel free to stunt there because the track was safe and not designed extreme like X-Games on tv. If you get tired after playing there, you can buy some refreshing drinks from the taverns there. Lucky, the drinks is on the affordable prices.

 



  Going through, you can find "Taman Film" there. You can watch some films that showed from 5 p.m. until 8 p.m. from the big megatron. Have fun, you can enjoy the film with your friends and some wifi for free! You can pleasantly watch from the rung or the rug below, but if you want to sit on the rug, you must open your shoes for keeping clean the rug. Because before the show started, there were usually many kids play on the rug. This place was sponsored by some amazing brands,there are Mogu Mogu, Achilles, and Corsa.

 
 
    And the final part of the park is Bawet field, a football field which used for some people to practicing football. Altough football is the one of the favourite sports of most people on the city, Ridwan Kamil designed this for facilitate the place for that. This field is wide enough, so you can feel free play the footbal and enjoy the game. Terrificly, this place was opened with the legendary of the famous football club on the world Manchester United, Gary Pallister. Together with Micheal Dunne, the president director of PT General Motors Indonesia because this field was sponsored by Chevrolet, the past of General Motors.

   Amazing, right? It's more fun if you can going here with your friends rather than you doing nothing at your home. You can get some enchanting facilities there for free! I hope we can hang out together with you there sometime.
