Week 5 Reflection



Last week was a such a daft week. There were copious of homework. There were Math homework, English homework, Bahasa homework, and UOI homework. Last week our assignment are due. The assignment is about conception to birth. We have to explain the details of us inside our mother's womb. From 1-9 months. First I made the draft. It wasn't really good. Then I made the final draft last week. I made it in a booklet. Instead of homework, I got sick for 2 days. I got fever. I didn't go to to school on Monday and Tuesday. I got plethora of homework. I was inordinately sullen because I don't understand how to do my homework. Fortunately my teacher emailed me about the homework. I was exceedingly ecstatic. Even though last week I got many homework, it's still exciting.

Alex Rider: POINT BLANK




This week I read an Alex Rider adventure book. I finished the whole book. The book was very cool. The following is the summary of the exciting pages I read last week:


One day, Alex went to Dr. Hugo's office. He saw Dr. Hugo's assisstance shot by him. Alex spied on Dr. Hugo. Alex went through Dr. Hugo's file and now he know that Dr. Hugo is a senile man because Dr. Hugo is the guy who killed Michael. J Roscoe, the tenth richest man in the world. Dr. Hugo is as mean as a lion. He's a assassin. Alex was very jubilant because his job is done. He knew who Dr. Hugo is. Alex went ot his room and took his gadget that is a discman. If he press fast forward three times, MI6 will come help him. So he did. When he was waiting MI6 to come Dr. Hugo told the whole school that Alex was a spy. Alex knew what that means. It means that Dr. Hugo will kill Alex. When the guards was chasing Alex, Wolf, a spy from MI6 came, Alex was exceedingly elated. Alex took his earpiece amd it turned into a mini grenade and Alex threw it to the guards. Wolf helped by shooting the guards using hi-teched bow. Finally they got Dr. Hugo and he was caught and dealed by MI6. MI6 is uncharacteristically proud of Alex Rider. This story book is almost the same like the James Bond's movies.

Martha's Life


In school, our teacher told us to make a short story using the 10 words we learned.


The following is my story i made:




Martha, with a strong-willed character, has been facing many problems. After her husband was sentenced for six years in jail for assassination, her family fell apart. Martha's also facing other problems like her son's academic grade is getting worse. Martha has been trying to expunge Paul's bad habit of staying up late with his friends. Martha hopes that Paul will bond again with his family again. One Sunday Martha's friend invited Martha to her church. There, the pastor talked about the description of perseverance. The pastor also talked about being patient through suffering. One day Martha went to the prison to meet her husband that she had experience somethig great with God. She told her husband that we have to rejoice in hope. Martha hopes that Paul will be touched by the word of God. Paul saw how hard his mother worked for him. Finally he realizes. Paul worked really hard and he had an achieb\vement at school. Martha was proud and she had thanked God that God had done mant miracles for her. God is always with us, he will guide us at hardship and lead us to a better path.

Making a Cell



In school we are learning about cells, there are 3 different kinds of cells. There is animal cell, plant cell, and prokarytiotic cell. Our teacher told us to make one of those cell. I chose to make a animal cell. We have to make a cell that is edible. We cannot make it using other stuff. The following are the things I used to make a animal cell:




  • Orange skin: Cell Membrane


  • Grape: Nucleus


  • Chocolate: Golgi Apparatus


  • Fruit snacks: Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum


  • Sweets: Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum


  • Grape skin: Mitochondria


  • Orange: Cytoplasm


  • Candies: Peroxisome and Lysosome

The following are informations about these organelles:



  • Nucleus: DNA replication and transcription of RNA


  • Cell Membrane: Boundary for entry and eit of nutrients and we can find important enzyme activity there


  • Golgi Apparatus: It's the place where it seperates the waste


  • Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum: The place where transports liquid and nutrients


  • Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum: Surface which ribosomes bind for protein synthesis


  • Mitochondria: Site of energy metabolism and synthesis of high-energy ATP

  • Cytoplasm: Provides shape to cell; region where many metabolic reactions occur

  • Peroxisome and Lysosome: Oxidative metabolism of nutrients using oxygen to generate water. Metabolism of materials ingested by endocytosis

Oral Presentation




Today I will be talking about how technology and sports influence me positively, and how my friends influence me negatively. Technology can be described as machines, tools or resources that help me finish my tasks. One of them is the internet. Sport makes me healthier and makes my body more in shape. One of them is to exercise or play any kinds of sport. Hanging out with wrong friends is exactly like throwing ourselves into a lion's den. Bad friends make me bully others. Next, I will discuss more about technology.




For this first influence, I will explain how technology changes me positively. With technology, life is the same as counting numbers from 1-10. For example, Microsoft Word can make me type up information easily and neatly. Now I will show a picture of modern technology. Microsoft Word is not the only technology that influences me, but also movies. Today many well- known producers do not only create action movies, but also inspirational, spiritual, educational and life-changing movies. Inspirational and life- changing movies change the way I think, and help me to be more optimistic. Spiritual movies strengthen my faith, especially when I am going through many difficulties. Educational movies teach me and shares new knowledge that I can make use of. After this I will talk about how sports influence me positively.




For this second influence, I will talk about how sports influence me positively. Practicing sports makes my body healthier. Any kinds of sport can affect our physical development. For example, if you play basketball, you can grow taller, and become physically fit. Also, playing sports help me become relaxes and relieved because I shake off all my energy and thoughts into the activity I'm doing. One of the many sports that have influenced me is badminton. I like to play and practice badminton with my dad every Saturday. I also have badminton lessons. Playing badminton makes me have fun. Soccer is also another type of sport that shakes off all my thoughts. I like to play soccer, collect soccer jerseys and soccer shoes. I also watch soccer matches on television. Sometimes I play soccer with my cousin. Lastly, I will talk about how my friends influence me negatively.




In this final influence, I will talk about how my friends change me in a negative way. Some of my friends are kind and encouraging. Some of my other friends are mean and likes to say rude words. We have to choose the right friends. Choosing a friend is like a road that goes two ways, one way goes to the right direction while the other goes to the wrong direction. Friends influence me negatively by many ways. First example would be bullying. My friends like to make me bully other people. Second example would be bad languages. My friends teach me inappropriate words, that I must not follow. Now I will conclude this presentation.




To conclude, there are so many things in life that can influence us positively and negatively previously. I described sports and technology as positive influences, and friends as negative influences. As we grow older, we must be wise and cautious in making good decisions, and to avoid bad influences in our life.


ERL Summary: Alex Rider: POINT BLANK


In the last 2 weeks, i've been reading a book called POINT BLANK.


Now, Alex is already in Point Blank school for three weeks. Alex had made friends with james. One day, Alex and James went skiing. Alex used his ski suit that is highly insulted and bulletproof. His goggles can see as far as 20 yards. When they we're skiing, they accidentally fell down. The guards of Point Blank took Alex and James back to their room. When Alex got back, the 2 guards locked Alex in his room. Alex took his gadget that is a discman. He played a beethoven song and the discman turned into a automatic saw. Alex sawed the window of his room and got out skiing again. Dr. Hugo was watching Alex. It was already 3' o clock at the morning! Alex is as agile as Flash.
