Especially when people try to learn an extreme sport like skateboarding, diving, and wall climbing. But learning something fun like video game is a different thing, most people will assume that this is a very unique experience, because they did not feels any kind of nervous or fear. Just like me, learning a video game is the most memorable funny experience, because that is made me more cooperative, and easy to learn english.
When i was 4 years old, my parents gave me a gaming console named Sega Dreamcast as a birthday gift, i am so happy but in the same time i feel a little bit confuse about how to operate and play the game with that. Then my brother told me how to operate that, and letting me to learn by myself. I always remember that my first video game that finished by myself was Sonic the Hedgehog.
From there, i feel that i am in love with video games. When i was at 5 my mother gave me a Playstation One as my playgroup graduation gift, i was so happy with that, and then i have played and finished many challenging games like Final Fantasy series, Tomba, and Threads of Fate. When i was playing them, i am realize that my english was get an improvement. I can communicate with english and practicing both in school and in the game.

From there, i am no longer become a solo player, instead become a very cooperative and friendly player to newbie.
I always remember that when i was reach the max level, there was a lower level player asked me that he want to join with me. But unfortunately, i refused and told him that i am a solo player who never joined with the others. He was so dissapointed, but in another day i nearly die because of my mistake.

The first video game was invented back in 1940. The purpose of making the video game not only to entertain people also to proving the development of technology itself. Not only that, some people use the video game to handle stress, become less depressed and get less hostile during stressful tasks. Today, many claims that video games can lead to violence, mental illness, and character malfunction. In fact, this is not true according to study at Texas A&M conducted by Associate Professor Dr. Christopher J. Ferguson in 2010 showed that someone who plays video game able to handle stress, avoiding mental illness and character malfunction. I will show you the advantages of video games according to the research.
First, playing video games could increase memory capacity. In a 2015 study in The Journal of Neuroscience, researchers from the University of California, Irvine recruited 69 participants and asked them to play Super Mario 3D World for two weeks. The researcher said, "Because of their engaging experiences and enriching 3D virtual environments, provide our brain with meaningful stimulation,". The result is the people who played the game ended up doing better on follow-up memory tasks.
Second, In 2010 Professor Dr. Christopher J. Ferguson sample 103 students, and he orders the student to plays no game, a non-violent game, a violent game with good versus evil theme, or a violent game in which they played ‘the bad guy.’ The results are that violent games reduce depression and hostile feelings. He also said that a violent game can be as a therapy to help to find a way to reduce the stress in real life.
But, we can not close our eyes that lots of mass murder linked to the video games. The reason is that the suspect played the video game and their reason doing the murder is because they inspired by the video game. But, when I read through the suspect family background their relationship between the suspect and his family is not too good. Some of the suspects also got bullied by his friend at the school. So we can see the main factor, someone, causing violence, got a mental illness or character malfunction is not the video games but the person-environment itself.
In conclusion, when playing the video game we have to be wise. Make sure you get yourself enough rest, enough socialize because it affects your body and mental condition. For the parent who has a kid who likes playing a video game, make sure to keep them accompany.

Argumentative Essay
Rizki Rabiul Ts (1630911025)
The industrial
sector is a major sector in the Indonesian economy after the agricultural
sector. Industry is an economic activity that processes raw materials, raw
materials or finished goods into high-quality goods in use. Thus the industry
is part of the production process. Industry in Indonesia is the industry that
allows our economy to grow rapidly and better, thus bringing changes in the
structure of the country's economy, especially the region. Speak of the
current area of Industrial growth in West Java more in the North. In order
for equity, the government will develop industrial area in South West Java,
because in the North is considered too crowded. The locations include Cianjur,
Garut, Tasikmalaya, and Sukabumi. One of the areas being developed as an
industrial center is Sukabumi. Sukabumi area does show a positive movement in
the development of property sector of the industry, it is proven that there are
many factories in Sukabumi development. Industrial development can be positive
but if not built comprehensively it will have a negative impact on the other
side.
Not a few
citizens who criticize and disagree over the construction of industrial sectors
in Sukabumi because it is considered to affect environmental health. So the
construction of factories in Sukabumi area is not uncommon to get rejection.
Can be judged by the construction of these factories will threaten the
environmental sustainability because it can produce waste from hazardous and
toxic materials, also affect health. Moreover, in Sukabumi there are a lot of
plant construction in residential areas, for example SCG Cement Plant which is
built very close to the residential area. On some sides there are only two to
four meters away. The furthest distance is only 100-300 meters.
Not only cause
environmental damage, other losses caused by the development of industrial
sector in Sukabumi namely increasing traffic congestion such as in Cibadak and
Cicurug areas. When at 7 am caused by the factory worker's factory
hours, then at 5 pm the areas will be traffic again by the employees due to the end
of business hours. Moreover Public transportation will be parked wildly in front of
industry sectors awaiting passengers. As with the big Trucks not only cause
their congestion also makes the roads easily damaged. Especially for the
Sukabumi area does not have different road access for large Trucks that
often occur accident.
However, the
profit is almost equal to the development of industrial sector in Sukabumi make
some people forget and do not care about the bad impact. With the development
of the Industrial sector it will of course expand employment for the population
and expand the economic activities of the surrounding communities, so this will
help the government to reduce unemployment and help increase economic growth
gradually, change the structure of the economy in a better, advanced and
balanced direction as efforts to realize a stronger and broader basis for
economic growth in general.
The
availability of abundant raw materials and potential human resources support in
Sukabumi has made the industry sector grow more rapidly in recent years.
However, the advanced industry seems to be a problem for most people. In
addition to providing positive impacts, the development of industrial estates
also has a negative impact or disadvantage, most of which are related to
environmental aspects. In addition, the government is also expected to think
about the surrounding communities living in the vicinity of industrial estates,
to review the permits for the development of industrial estates in residential
areas.

Discomfortable On Public Transportation
(Revisi I)
(Revisi I)
Transportation is the most important part of our life, because it can be make us more easily when we want to move to the other destination. In everyday people usually using the different types of transportation, such as private transport, or public transport. In every aspect, transportation have their own advantage and disadvantage, especially in Indonesia. Public transportation in Indonesia are less secure and comfortless than the other country, that's why people here decided to use their own vehicle.
In developed country like Japan, public transportation are the most used transportation in all day. Because their government is always care about the security, comfortness, and the effect of overloading vehicle in the roads. Meanwhile in Indonesia, the government is always less care about the public transportation. People are decided to choose their private transportation in order to avoid the traffic jam, and they think that private transportation is more comfortable.
On the other hand, public transport is also less comfort than private transport. In Indonesia, more of the drivers of public transportation like angkot, or even buses are not a professional, because they are always make people run out of time and less care about people safety on the roads, they are always drive in high speed and sometime collide with the other vehicle.
But, In Indonesia the public transportation is cheaper than private transport. Some people choose the public transportation because they are avoiding the tax of having the private transport. Even in Yogyakarta people are more prefer using a bicycle than a vehicle as their daily transport, some transportation in Bandung are started to make people more comfortable and enjoying the ride when they are using the public transportation.
We can say that public transportation in Indonesia needs more attention from the government because it has more benefits than private transport. People should be aware of the overload of vehicle in the roads that can produce more pollution, and they should think that public transport can reduce the volume of vehicle in the roads.
