The next day, Harry and Ron went to hospital wing to see Hermione, she never woke up since something attack her. Harry see something in her hand. A paper. He read the paper and the question is answered. Hermione found the answer so she was attacked. A creature in the chamber of secret is a snake, that’s why Harry is the only one who can hear the voice because he was the only one who understood snake language.
When they have dinner, proff McGonagall announce the student that they have to go home tomorrow. She also said that they have found that Ginny Weasley is the one who opened the chamber of secret, now she is brought to the chamber of secret by the monster in it.

So she sacrificed his soul to Riddle. And Ginny is the one who wrote on the wall, hanging the cat and kill on student with mud blood. Ginny has told everything about Harry, that’s make Riddle want meet him so much.

Without considering Harry stuck Riddle diary with the huge snake fang. Blood and ink blew from it, Voldemort scream and gone.
Ginny conscious, she said sorry to Harry because of her mistake, but she never meant to do those things. Riddle has controlled her mind.
Then Harry brought her out from the chamber. Ron was happy looking his sister was alright.

Ideal Campus
What is campus?
Campus is place to study for university student. Campus is one of the most unforgettable during our life. No matter campus is big or small, the facility is modern or simple, it has certain suitable to studying. Because its like our second home.
Kind of campus.
There are two kind of campus.
General campus and specific campus
General campus is placed by general student. Many faculties and different student are in. Moslem, Christian, buddish etc. Like in universitas indonesia, UGM, UnDip etc.
Second, specific campus. Its placed by specific student, I mean just a moslem students are in. Like STAIN or UIN.
Ideal Campus Life.
1st, student’s performance.
They wear suitable cloths. The Moslem woman student wears veil and long dress. And the man student wears shirt and shoes.
2nd, campus facilities.
Its must be not has big building or modern facilities. It has certain suitable to studying. Clean, comfort and safe. But its better has a full length of book in the library, kind of science books, Islam books, literature book, novel, news paper and magazine. to complete and upgrade student knowledge.
And much better if it provides a free internet network or WIFI like STAIN has. Its not only for browsing facebook or twitter but also for update new news around the world and increase student knowledge.
3rd, good society.
There are many kind of characters and ideas but as a academician, the university students has to respect each other. There is no anger competitive.
Not only student but also lecture. There is a aphorism, said “the younger respect to the older and the older love to the younger. Lecture also has to be respect if student has different idea as long as is still in the line.
I believed that one of the aspects of an ideal campus life in college is that both students and lecture take part in perfectly natural daily interaction, and it seems that in this way the campus can become a real vitalitly place of serious training. Knowledge from books is important as well as essential. But conversation and natural interaction with scholars make knowledge lively, interesting and practical.
4th, knowledge
As an academician we have to know everything. Not only what we learn from lecture but we have to rich our knowledge from the other ways. Not only religion knowledge but also general knowledge and sciences. We can rich it by Read many books, watch the environment situations and we have to think critically.

Ya, I think that’s all point of ideal campus life. So let us make our campus become an ideal campus life. To love and proud with our campus.

A Country in My Dream
Country was a place we stay since we were born until rest of our life, where our family also live, but we often dissatisfy with a few aspects in our country. So as a human being, sometime we dream about a perfect country. When I see Indonesia, I’m very sad. Many disorders happened in some places. For example riot, violation of low, corruptions. So sometime I dream can possess better country. In my dream good country is regions that clean, have good government, always grow up, rich, etc.
I’m also proud to be Indonesian, because it located at equator line, therefore the weather summer and rain throughout the year. Forest in Indonesia categorize as rain forest that full of natural resources contribute lots of resources to the country. That is one of some my dreams country.
Next, I always dream stay in country that clean, there is no garbage thrown any place. People throw away garbage in garbage box based on the garbage type (plastic, wet and dry garbage) so people can recycle it become something more useful and our environment looks beautiful. Nobody throw away garbage in the river. If our rivers are clean we can make it as voyage transportation and it also can be as a recreation place. Clean environment make we feel comfortable in order we can do our activity enthusiasm. Cleanliness also creates healthy life because it can prevent spreading of disease.

Discursive Essay
Footballers Do Not Deserve the High Salaries They Command
Many people think that footballers are paid too much money for doing too little effort. However, this can be argued because they are people who have dedicated their entire life to this sport and therefore they should be rewarded. This leads us to the question: Do footballers deserve high salaries? Firstly, some famous footballers are paid huge amounts of money such as Ronaldo who are paid millions of euros every year. This makes us feel that it is unreasonable that there are so many people dying of famine in the world and these people are given so much money for performing an insignificant effort. It even make us feel irritated to know how these football players waste their money in wants that are of no use such as Etoo, (a famous football player in Football Club Barcelona, colloquially said by the Spanish people “Barsa”) who possesses about fifteen expensive cars. A lot of money is needed for many purposes: for example for the aid of starving people in the less economically developed countries or in the building of more hospitals for our own health and security.
Secondly, people argue that there are other professions that provide far much more for the population that footballers do and that they are poorly paid in comparison. They should be paid more. Other people even think that what they are paid would be justified if they performed better in the actual matches. Many people say that one goal in a ninety-minute match or a draw implies an awful quality performance.
On the other hand, the opinion of the spectators is that these players have dedicated their full lives to their job which involves harsh training and the maintenance of physical fitness through intense daily training so he has to be under the pressure of their trainer who requires them to be completely fit and train strictly.
Furthermore, apart from the pressure exerted from their instructor, they are under the pressure of the audience. They have always to play correctly and not make any mistake so that the media and the public will not criticize them. A single error would represent a possible end of the career of that player.
In addition to this, we have to consider the fact that the age of retirement for a professional football player is of about 30-40 years (depending of the physical state of the player) which means that this person relies on the money he has gained in his short lifetime as a professional footballer therefore football players need the money for the future so they can sustain themselves and their future generations.
Finally, the football business is private, no public money pays for the bills so why should we care about how much are the players paid? It is a sport that is enjoyed by millions of people and it is known everywhere so it is maybe true that these players are worth the money, that their talent deserves this money.
In conclusion, my opinion is that footballers don’t perform such a simple, undemanding and effortless job, they dedicate their lives to this sport so that the people can enjoy it and it is quite complex for them to maintain their physical strength and fitness to survive ninety minutes running. They also are under a lot of pressure from their instructors, media and the whole audience. However, I do consider that the sum of money they are paid is quite over exaggerated, it is too much and even if it is not that easy to become a professional player, the effort is not worth millions of euros and I believe that some of these money should be for other purposes such as stopping the famine and starvation in the world. So footballers should be compensated for their effort but with so much money

kungfu panda 2 movie review
Kung Fu Panda works not only because of his bumbling ways as a martial arts hero but also because he is such a bundle of doubts, misgivings and apprehensions. Yes, he's hardly your archetypal superhero and therein lays his super charm.
The first film was a winner because it not only traced the birth of a hero, but also had the philosophical values. How to grow from zero to hero: that was the sweet and stirring sub-text of the film that won young and adult hearts alike with the antics of an overweight, ungainly panda who could have spent the rest of his life peddling noodles, if he hadn't mastered himself
In Kung Fu Panda 2, Po is now living his dream as The Dragon Warrior, protecting the Valley of Peace alongside his friends and fellow kung fu masters, The Furious Five. But Po's new life of awesomeness is threatened by the emergence of a formidable villain, who plans to use a secret, unstoppable weapon to conquer China and destroy kung fu. Po must look to his past and uncover the secrets of his mysterious origins; only then will he be able to unlock the strength he needs to succeed
Well, Po is already a hero now, nevertheless, he has his moments of weakness and his frailties which still need to be overcome before he can teach his new enemy the lesson of his life. Po must come to terms with his strange parentage: how can a panda be the son of a goose; so what, if the goose is the best dad in the world.... Time for some flashback and the arrival of the cutest baby panda on screen who makes you go all gooey with his baby talk.
There's no undermining the friendship-and family emotional sequences. Perhaps, the most touching sequences of the film are the show of affection between the noodle-hawking goose, Mr. Ping and his adopted son Po and the spontaneous touch-feely tid-bits between heavy-stuff Tigress and all-butter Po.
i think It is an awesome film. It has a good story and educational values but it was packed in fun story. So it is enjoyable to watch. And it is proper to watch by kids.
moral values that i've got from this movie
- The importance of the region is more important than anything else
- Our parents are not only our mom and dad, but everyone who loves and keeps us
- Trusting is everything

Po must look to his past and uncover the secrets of his mysterious origins; only then will he be able to unlock the strength he needs to succeed
Well, Po is already a hero now, nevertheless, he has his moments of weakness and his frailties which still need to be overcome before he can teach his new enemy the lesson of his life. Po must come to terms with his strange parentage: how can a panda be the son of a goose; so what, if the goose is the best dad in the world.... Time for some flashback and the arrival of the cutest baby panda on screen who makes you go all gooey with his baby talk.
There's no undermining the friendship-and family emotional sequences. Perhaps, the most touching sequences of the film are the show of affection between the noodle-hawking goose, Mr. Ping and his adopted son Po and the spontaneous touch-feely tid-bits between heavy-stuff Tigress and all-butter Po.
i think It is an awesome film. It has a good story and educational values but it was packed in fun story. So it is enjoyable to watch. And it is proper to watch by kids.
moral values that i've got from this movie
- The importance of the region is more important than anything else
- Our parents are not only our mom and dad, but everyone who loves and keeps us
- Trusting is everything
the differences culture between western and indonesian base on Karate Kid and King movie
I watched two different movies which have similar story background, that was single parent family life, King (Indonesian movie) and Karate Kid (Western movie).
From these different movies, I found two differences between family’s habit in Western and in Indonesia.
1. Indonesian families usually shy to express their love by words. Western family accustomed saying “I love you” each other, even though they just have quarrel.
2. Indonesian parents usually want to make their children as what they want. Western parents give their children freedom to choose what the kids wanna be.
But the same thing that I found is all parents in this world wanna give all the best for their children, of course with different ways because different pond-different fish.

using facebook as a medium of language teaching
Chapter I
ABOUT FACEBOOK
Nowadays, Facebook becomes a popular social network sites around the world. According to some news, more than 35.174.940 of Indonesians are using facebook. Facebook, has a lot of members around the world
In Facebook, people could share what’s on their mind. When a person is happy or sad, the world will know it if that person share it on Facebook. Just open Facebook, then write at your wall and click share; everybody whom are connected to you will know you’re feeling. In Facebook, you could tell your story.
The development of technology sounds like two sides of coins. In one side, it is a useful media to communicate with others. You may find your old friends who are separated by seas, contact your parents in different cities, and or discussing new discovery using chatting feature.
In different sides, Facebook makes addiction for the users. One of internet rental’s keepers in Salatiga says to me that Facebook users could spend hourly in their computer just opening Facebook. He says that there are more than 60 percent visitors at his Internet rental, based on his observation; spend more than 3 hours just for Facebook. For him Facebook makes people dependence in his Internet rental
Chapter II
HOW FACEBOOK WORKS
When I considering the facebook advances in this our age, I was wondering if I could start teaching my students English as second language by using Facebook as the medium. Well, you might be tempted to ask; how intend to go about it?
In this connection, I will first of all create a group in Facebook by using the Groups tool in Facebook and clicking on the Create A New Group button. Follow the steps including making the group public. It will be made public because I would like students can find it easily.
Secondly, inside the group, I can post topic for my students to write on, then I will choose the best three for voting. This competition style stuff will make them prepare well and I hope will improve their writing skill. Videos, links, and other “wall” items will be posted to assist them in their preparation. In fact, this is a means to continue the classroom in other settings with much flexibility.
Thirdly, using my own personal network, I will invite “guests” into the group so that they can contribute to the discussion boards. There is a real benefit to get other experts talking to your students. The students might establish fraternity with other students and much benefit can be exchanged.
Fourthly, I will make sure my students always respond to my original post for a grade, and then give points for when they respond to others in the discussion board. Your guests will have to become members of the group to post to the Discussion Board, so let your “guests” drop out of the group early if they are only to contribute to one discussion.
Finally, I would encourage the students to post a topic of their choice in order to ignite their creative.
Beside of group, Facebook still provide many features which interesting to help our student happily learning English. They are:
1. Facebook Share: It is an elementary feature in facebook. It is also able to be applied as medium to help the learning presses. Everyone can share everything (sort article, link, picture, video etc) to all of friends, and the others can give comment about what they’ve shared. It will improve student writing skill of English.
2. Facebook Quiz. Now, there are many quizzes circulating in facebook. Most of quizzes only made for simply fad. This feature also can be used to do the online quizzes. The teacher can give student a question about English Language using this application and student have to answer it.
3. Facebook Note. With these supporting facilities the teacher can invite their student to discuss each other about certain topic of English. It is simple, the teacher just making a note then tagging their student, the topic in the note will invite student discussed.
4. Facebook Apps. With this feature, almost anything can be done. One of them is with making a game edutainment at platform in facebook apps. One of example of Facebook Apps game edutainment which is famous enough and many played is Geo Challenge. It is the application of game to test geographical knowledge of the students.
Chapter III
DISADVANTAGES OF USING FACEBOOK
a social network surely had advantages and disadvantages. The disadvantages of facebook are make us lazy doing the duties which ought to be done, it because facebook has many applications which is very interesting. Student will be more interested making status and giving comment to the other friend than doing their assignment which ought to become their responsibility.
Facebook also can cause lack of socialization with the environment, because by playing at in illusory world can causes our socialization to decline. This thing will make people in present globalization era have individual character. Their mind sometimes too critical, they didn’t see how situation of others social. And thereby will make social difference in society itself.
Chapter IV
CONCLUSION
English learning is not as difficult imagined. Learnt English didn't mean we must fetch up all standing only at formal education alike the one is taught in school and or place of courses. English learning would hardly easy to learn if we know effective way and fit in with ourselves character. Learning English through facebook online system is one way which innovative to be developed, though this system is not formal system, however giving good effect in English improvement, especially in writing skill.
