DEWA ATHENA

          Dewa Athena. Weird name isn’t it? It is the name of sport competitions in 3 senior high school. This competition is held by OSIS and every 10^th and 11^th graders must participate. There are many sports to compete in.

            Basically, how we do this is every class must send their own teams to compete in every single sport. The winner will continue on competing until they found who the winners are.

            Dewa Athena is held to increase the student’s interest and their fitness by doing any kind of sports. There are many sports starting from modern world wide sports, until traditional sports.

            The event is held every year. Usually near the 12^th graders exam time. This year, 2017, Dewa Athena is held for approximately 3 weeks in every Saturday of the week. We must go to school to participate in this sport event because if we don’t there will be consequences such as bad grades (because they do rollcall) and fine. Literally, every time our class do not show up for the competition, they will charge us IDR100.000. I know, crazy. But it’s just how 3 Senior High School is.

            Despite all of the unpleasant things (not really) I mentioned above, there are some importance in this event. Dewa Athena really do Increase our interest in sport. It definitely helps us show our potential in sport or just simply channel our energy to a positive track. Because our school is known for the “study hard” thing, which is true, so this event is a really good place to express yourself more. It also builds our teamwork more. We become more solid by this because there are a lot, and I mean A LOT of teamwork needed in this event. We try hard to win, but we also try to have as much fun as we can.

            Like I said, we participate by playing sports. But, what kind of sports? We participate in Male Basketball, Female Futsal, Volleyball, Male Futsal, Male Doubles Badminton, Female Double Badminton, Male Dodgeball, Female Dodgeball, Gobak Sodor, and Tug of War (Tarik Tambang).

            So we have to have teams for each sports. All of the sports above is actually really exciting. Even if you have never done any of it, once you get In to it, you’ll find your adrenaline rushing because of the excitement. I think we should have more sport events like this because this is great in every aspect.

Learning From Nature

                Nature is the physical world of the universe. Nature is very close to us as it’s  what kept our existence from the very begining of this world. Nature has it’s own way of making things work. Everything that is happening right now is natural.  Everything in this world completes one another in any kind of ways. The circle of life, that’s what it is called. Everything that had or is waiting to happen is all part of the nature itself. We are and we’re even doing nature without even realizing it.

            The word nature has so many things in it. But we often refer nature to geology and wildlife. The realm of living plant or how animals in the wildlife do without human intervention is nature. So when it comes to human interaction, it is not generally considered as nature. Except qualified as for example, “human nature” or “ the whole nature”.

            Nature is always connected to science in anyways. That is why scientist has always been presence in our lives. Directly  or indirectly. Life as we know is natural and when scientists come close to it, they see things differently. Like how creatures of the earth are being classified and or divided into different types of organizations. Plants, animals and all of the other incredible features of this earth. These things that human do are based on their human nature. We are curious and willing to know, and yet there are still so many things we haven’t discovered yet. That’s the incredible thing of nature. It shows so many things that at some point we thought we have known all. But yet, it hides more than it shows.

            Every single thing walking this planet has it’s own beauty even the most indecent creature has it’s aesthetic. But even the simplest things sometimes come to a waste. For example, the water we use everyday are being wasted and or taken for granted most of the ties. Those who do such things probably forgotten that there are plenty of people are begging for even a drop of water. That is the simplest thing that we can do to help save the nature if we are having a problem of looking for a way to help. Save water.

            I expect thing to get better with the midset of the people of this planet. Not from the nature. Because the nature do things based on how we do them. If we do them good, then they will do us good too in return. You do not expect good things from nature if you do not act good. I expect us all to think of the causes of our action for everything. Including the nature. We have to do everything we could to reduce damage to this earth. Starting with ourselves, we could use water as an example. By using it wisely, we are saving earth. Plastics, reduce plastic usage, we could recycle it. In fact, lots of people have done that as their business for example. By that, not only we are saving earth from polutions, global warming, etc, we also help others by supporting them in doing good things that will also help save the earth.

Living a green life is another way to say that you are living a healthy life. We could plant organic foods in our yards, carry paper bags or simply a bag for your own groceries so you wont need any plastic bags the market hands you.

At some point, all these green behaviour, once you start doing it, people will see and get  what you are doing. You can encourage them to do the same healthy life as yours and hopefully they will spread the words to everyone else.

Humans has done everything they could to get all the things that they want and need, but sometimes, we do it without realizing the consequences. All that impact our lives right here right now. Almost everything natural in this world is replaced by something else that isn't. It isn't good for some of that. But the past can't be changed. All that we can change is now.

Because in the end, we are the one who are going to be responsible for what he had done.
