Combing is a daily job for every girl right? But this activity does not apply to Megan Stewart. Scottish Girl can die when she comb her hair, and she also threatened to touch the balloon.

Megan was born with a weight of just 1.05 pounds and as big as the palm of the hand of a man. She was suffering from diaphragmatic hernia, or there is a hole in her diapgragm. This means the stomach moves up into the chest, which only allows one room for the lungs to develop. Strange condition causes Megan to avoid static electricity in their daily lives.

Poem made by Nabiya Rizki Meida. “sorry” (soft skill)

You took my love away..
Baby, tell me why?
You took my love away..
Baby,  just wanna know why..

You stood there..looking at me..
Like I’m a nobody to you…
You stood there..looking at me..
Like I’m a stranger to you…

Why can’t you?
Why can’t you forgive for what I’ve done…
Why can’t you?
Why can’t you hold me back and forget things I’ve done..

I’m sorry..
That’s the only thing that  I could say right now..
I’m sorry…
For letting you down and turn you into pieces…

I wish I can turn back time…
I wish I should’ve think twice..
I wish you would listen to me even just for once…

I’m sorry baby..
Is that enough?

poem by Nabiya Rizki Meida “see you happy” (soft-skill)

Is it true . . .
That you’re okay. .
Is it true . . .
That you’re okay leaving me with no tears. .
Is it true . . .
That you would never have this bit of sadness ?
Is it true . . .
That you don’t need me anymore. .
Is it true . . .
That you cannot accept me for who I am ?

Did you realized. .
I was there beside you through your ups and downs. .
Do you realize. .
That I cannot live without you
Did you realize. .
When you said bad things you’ll never know that my heart is aching. .
Aching. .
Because of you

You never know how it feels. .
You just don’t wanna know. .

And because everything that I know is true
I have to be ready. .
That someday. .
I have to let you go. .
To let you walk out of my life. .
And let you walk free. .
Free. .
And see you happy. .

someday you will be mine.. (soft-skill)

i was there.. 
looking at you..
through my eyes..
thinking everything was going to be just fine..
till..
you met someone new..
and torn my world upside down..

begging you to stay does not mean anything to you..
begging you to stay is not the answer to keep you stay with me..
so am i..
and so are we...

i could not believe suddenly everything is crushing on me..
like a meteor falling from the sky..
but no one there to save me even when i cry..

i wish all you said was true..
but promises and all the memories we've been through..
can easily disappear...
it's like when you wrote something up..
and erase what you have been written in the past..

easy if you compare it to something simple..
deep down in my heart..
everything is not easy as what it is..

goodbye is the only thing i can say..
still i do wish upon the stars..
that someday you will be mine..
that someday you will be mine...

My Own Advertisement "Time Watch" by: Nabiya Rizki Meida a.k.a Bea. (soft-skill 3rd assignment)

the brand of this watch is "TIME" so i chose one of this popular phrase, "time is money" and i added a few words after the phrase "never forget TIME" the last word could have two meanings, the TIME could be a indefinite continues progress of existence and events in the past, present and the future, or it could actually refers to the brand of the watch. it could be both. 

ps: Bea is my nickname. putting down my full name is just too long. and probably my full name would take too much space.

Indonesia didn't win the final match.. it was....sad. i was 100% sure that Timnas could win the match.. well they made a very good start.. but at the end.. it was terrible. Malaysia won by Penalty. and in my Dict, winning by Penalty is just too simple. well, Malaysia did their best. they prepared for sea games for 3 years, and Indonesia prepared sea games for a months. It was a pretty bad ending but it's okay lah.. Garuda tetap didadaku :D 


GBK was very very crowded.. apalagi pas lagi ngantri buat masuk bah.. a bunch of people are pushing around with each other.. it was terrible but i made it! and i got the best seat. all the supporters are amazing :p it was super amazing. cemooh dari mulut banyak orang.. seperti "WASIT ANJING" dan "MALING MALING (buat malaysia)" dan masih banyak lagi :P anyway the match started around 8 o'clock. end up at 11 o'clock. went back home at 2 o'clock. back to  campus around 7 o'clock. how fascinating! i was tired but i will never regret it. somehow it was the best experience ever. and i would like to watch it again if i do have time. 






these are the 4 tickets. it took time to get this ticket. and when we got the tickets it feels like heaven on earth.

at the beginning.. the supporters were this big

but when the match started... beh, don't ask. it was CROWDED

a happy supporters :D

Forza Indonesia! the Ultras made this.

Garuda Never Outgunned (Gunners). PS: ManUTD do served such a similar things as what other clubs do, but it was at the right side of my seat so i couldn't take a picture of it, too hard to find a great shot :(

A Glowing Lake In The Night (soft-skill)

Got this Article on the internet and i would like to share and give some of my opinion about this amazing incident that happens in the night. i think the photographer just got a lucky shot. One of the natural phenomena can be seen directly on the lake in the Gippsland region of Victoria, Australia. And I think this thing would not be seen in daylight. But if we visit in the evenings, and directs the light towards the lake, then this phenomenon can be enjoyed. Light appears on the surface of the lake water, it is a chemical reaction called 'bioluminescence' caused by micro-organisms 'noctiluca Scintillans'. A freelance photographer from Melbourne who came to visit this lake with a friend has made a few pictures below. "I almost do not believe it when my camera captures good pictures," said the photographer Phil Hart. "People look like an alien creature". 

i don't know exactly is that, it doesn't say on the article. but i think is a sea creature that also turns out to be blue.

this is the whole picture of the Lake. it is truly turns out to be blue. amazing.

and this is how humans got into the lake. 

i would really love to visit this place someday. I might be lucky. though it sounds like I'm "day dreaming".

HOW TO OVERCOME YOUR DISTENDED STOMACH (soft-skill)







some of you might have trouble with your distended stomach, well I've heard lots of people arguing about how big their stomach is.  well these are some tips that might help you to overcome this problem. 


1. DRINK LOTS OF WATER



If the stomach is full because you drink too much water, you actually can reduce the problem by drinking more water. This will dilute the concentration of sodium in your body and increasing the amount of water coming out of your body systems.
Drinking more water also ensure effective functioning gall to remove toxins material .. Do not drink too much water during diet because it can cause stomach bubble.



2. REDUCE SALT CONSUMPTION




Too much salt in your diet can add an extra sodium to the mechanism that slows the body fluids that can  push water out of cells. As a result your stomach can be bloated.

3. EAT SLOWLY



Do not eat in a hurry because when you swallow it too quickly, the air is retained in the intestine and form a gas that can cause abdominal distention.
Sit down when you're eating your food and chew your food slowly. Food that is not chewed into small Courant-portion can not be digested properly which then produces many gases that cause inflation.

4. EAT FIBER FOODS



Fiber is an important element in diet, but to compensate for water retention that causes inflation, eat fiber in fruits such as apples and pears that have a lot of water content.

5. STAY AWAY FROM DRUGS



Expanding belly also effects from drugs consumption. Aspirin sometimes causes problems that lead to constipation and abdominal distension, including the contraceptive pill.

6. AVOID CONSTIPATION



Constipation is a disorder of the digestive system in which an experienced hardening of stools or excessive stool so it is difficult to be discharged or released and can cause great pain to the sufferer.

7.CALISTHENICS



Sports or exercise will help you to move the fluid in the abdomen that can cause major stomach by pushing it out of the network and enter the blood stream that will be issued as sweat or brought into the bile to drain water as urine.
