Mengenalkan Gempabumi Kepada Generasi Usia Dini

( Jalan rusak akibat gempabumi. Sumber: https://xdesignmw.wordpress.com/2009/10/12/bangunan-tahan-gempa )

Sebagai salah satu negara yang memiliki aktivitas kegempaan cukup tinggi, Indonesia wajib memiliki mitigasi bencana gempabumi yang sudah memadai mulai dari ketahanan bangunan yang kokoh akan goncangan gempabumi, langkah evakuasi ketika gempabumi terjadi yang efektif , serta edukasi perihal gempabumi dan pelatihan penanggulangan bencana gempabumi kepada masyarakat luas.

Hingga saat ini, belum ada satupun teknologi dan metode modern di dunia yang dapat memprediksi gempabumi secara akurat. Salah satu kalangan masyarakat yang berisiko terkena ancaman gempabumi adalah para siswa-siswi sekolah. Gempabumi dapat saja terjadi pada saat kegiatan belajar-mengajar berlangsung di sekolah. Bertolak dari latar belakang tersebut, sudah semestinya pemberian edukasi mengenai gempabumi kepada para siswa sangatlah penting. Bukan hanya itu, melakukan simulasi pelatihan menghadapi bencana gempabumi secara rutin di sekolah-sekolah juga tak kalah pentingnya.

Selama ini, langkah dari BMKG untuk memberikan edukasi dan sosialisasi perihal gempabumi selain dari media cetak dan elektronik adalah melalui workshop yang biasa disebut dengan Table Top Exercise atau Gladi Ruang Mitigasi Bencana Gempabumi yang hanya dilakukan di daerah tertentu yang rawan akan gempabumi dan pesertanya hanya beberapa pihak yang berada di sekitarnya seperti sekolah-sekolah, Polisi, TNI, Pemda, Dinas Kesehatan, BPBD, dan Masyarakat umum. Adapun kegiatan lain adalah berupa kunjungan sekolah-sekolah ke kantor BMKG untuk belajar mengenai gempabumi yang dilakukan atas inisiatif dari pihak sekolah tertentu. Solusi lain yang dirasa perlu untuk dilakukan adalah dengan menambahkan mata pelajaran mengenai bencana gempabumi beserta mitigasinya ke dalam kurikulum sekolah. Selain itu, simulasi bencana gempabumi juga perlu dilakukan secara rutin di sekolah. Hal ini tentu saja tidak bertujuan untuk memberatkan para siswa, gagasan diatas justru sangat bermanfaat untuk membentuk karakter generasi muda yang siap menghadapi bencana gempabumi.

Metode serupa bahkan telah diterapkan oleh negara Jepang sejak gempabumi besar menghantam daerah Kobe pada tahun 1995. Kala itu gempabumi Kobe menelan korban lebih dari 65.000 jiwa. Negara sakura itu akhirnya dapat menurunkan jumlah korban bencana gempabumi yang terjadi setelah setelah gempabumi Kobe sejak dimasukkannya mata pelajaran dan pelatihan mengenai gempabumi pada kurikulum sekolah.

Kita berharap bahwa dengan memasukkan edukasi dan pelatihan rutin evakuasi bencana gempabumi ke dalam kurikulum di sekolah dapat mengurangi dampak kerugian bencana gempabumi sejak dini. Semua ini bukan bertujuan untuk memberatkan para siswa, Hal ini justru dimaksudkan untuk menyadarkan pada generasi muda bahwa gempabumi tidak dapat dihindari dan kita harus siap menghadapinya kapan saja.

Day 2 - 5 Likes and Dislikes.

Hell-o blog, How are you doing?

It’s been a very long time to continue writing my blog challenge. Actually, a couple weeks ago, I had a plan to delete my blog for good. I thought that my enthusiasm to post some long writing in this blog was decreasing day by day. I dunno why, whereas, I had materials for making some feeds. I just felt that writing was not my thing anymore. Each time I opened my blog, I just wanted to hear the playlist within my blog which is my favorite and closing my blog without posting anything except a little absurd quote of mine.

Now I come up to continue my blog challenge. What is my motive to continue writing you may ask? Well, I guess the reason why I would like to start over my blog challenge is because I want to sharpen my English writing skill. I want to make my English writing skill become better. You know, around one month ago, I spent my holiday at English Village in Pare, Kediri. Do you know Pare? Guys, Pare is a well-known and recommended place to learn English. It is located in Kediri regency, East Java province. In Pare, you’ll find numerous English course agencies that provide many English course programs which is affordable with budget. Start from basic English program until advanced English program such as IELTS or TOEFL preparation, Public Speaking, Teaching Clinic, etc. You know, the programs quality is almost the same with the big agency of English course in the downtown. At that time. I joined the IELTS preparation program, which means learning about IELTS writing, listening, and speaking (I didn’t join reading class, because basically we are only allowed to choose three programs each period. Unless, in case you want to join more class you should pay more) Oh yeah, I chose to register at Global English agency at that time. If you want to discuss more about the courses out there, you may call me via Facebook or this blog. I recommend you to visit Pare and learn English there. I bet you, your holiday will not only refreshing but also educating :)

 Well, I think I will make a particular post to talk more about Pare later.

Now let’s go back to the topic: 10 Likes & 10 Dislikes.

Well, actually the real title for this challenge was 10 Likes and Dislikes. But guys, I think writing 10 likes and dislikes is too long. So, in the end I just share 5 stuffs instead of 10, because me, myself really lack of idea about what else to write :’D

To be honest, actually I’m so confused about what should I write about my likes and dislikes. But yeah, I’ll do my best. So, here they are . . .

 5 Likes 

 1.      Gathering with family.

Well, home and family is always come first in my whole life. They are the reason why I struggle within this crazy world. So, spending much time with my family is definitely the best thing that I would love to. Especially, since senior high school I used to study in boarding school which was forcing me to stay in dormitory and being far from home. Back then, going home was a precious moment that always be awaited.

2.       Eating my mom’s cuisine.

This is also one of the reason why do I love staying at home. I think, everyone would has the same opinion as I am that mom’s cuisine is always providing marvelous aroma and flavor. Its taste and palate are extremely divine. Even though my mom cooks a simple recipe such as ‘Sambel Pete’ or ‘Semur Jengkol’ ( FYI, Pete and Jengkol are two of my favorite food :D ) but you know, she could make those simple recipes become such an extravagant and luxurious dish *okay I’m a little bit exaggerated, but hey that is true mates ehehe.

3.       Reading ( especially novel).

Actually, I’m not a bookworm but I enjoy reading novel although not too frequently. At the time, I’m on my way finishing ‘The Land of Five Towers’ novel. The English version of ‘Negeri Lima Menara’ novel from Ahmad Fuadi. The trilogy of ‘Negeri Lima Menara’ is my favorite novel so far. By reading novel I could expand my imagination to draw the situation which is written in the novel. And I’m also still waiting for the last novel from The tetralogy of ‘The chronicles of Ghazi’ which is written by Ust. Felix Siauw. The tetralogy describes about ‘Muhammad Al-Fatih’ story begin from he was born until conquered the Constantine.

4.       Travelling.

Basically, I love to visit places that I have never been before. I can learn new things from a new place. And I’m also curious to know the situation in another region, so I would get a new experiences. Honestly, I haven’t traveled toward many places. Until now, I have traveled around Java island only. I ever traveled to Dieng Plateau in Wonosobo regency, Central Java to catch on sunrise at Sikunir sunrise spot. Experiencing rafting in Serayu river, in Banjarnegara regency, Central Java. Visiting my high school mate in UGM Jogjakarta, then he took me to many fascinating spot around Jogja such as Keraton palace of Jogja sultanate, Jogja monument, Merapi volcano Museum, University of Gadjah Mada, and having meal in Angkringan surely and etc. Enjoying the blue water of Tanjung Lesung beach and Liwungan island in Pandeglang regency, Banten province. That is located in the most western province in Java island at the west coast. Floating in the river of Green Canyon around 2-3 hours which is located in Pangandaran, West Java province and having a good time in Pangandaran beach. My recent traveling was going to Kediri regency, East java province to enroll English program class at English Village Pare which is my dream-list since I was a senior high school student. 

Presumably, my traveling story wasn’t that interesting because it was only inside Java island. However, for me, those were such an exquisite experiences. Every place I visited always gives me a new story and experience. Sometimes it was a bad experience but still there was a positive side behind it. I think I will do travel more in the future. I wish I could travel outside Java island and I wish I could travel overseas especially Europe (: and for studying there *aammiiinnn :) 

5.       Having my dreams come true.

Who don’t want their dreams become true? I guess everyone which is normal on this planet want to make their own dreams become true. And yeah, I have a bunch dreams that I want to make it happen. Wish Allah could help me to achieve it *amin.

  5 dislikes

 1.       A strange crowd, I’m really not comfortable staying in a crowd which is I don’t know what the purpose is.

2.       Being betrayed. I always pray to The Fairest one, may he always gives the best justice.

3.       Two-faces person a.k.a orang munafik. It’s awful to face with this kind of species.

4.       Annoying singing beggar. I just dislike the one which is annoying.

5.       The fume of smoking. Smokers, go suck your cigarettes and its smoke and also its ashes.

well, sorry I don’t elaborate more about the ‘dislikes’ , because I don’t want to write more about negative things and now is around 11.26 PM though also tomorrow is going to be Monday which is morning assembly will be held before having lecture. 

so yeah, Good Night blog, sleep tight ! :)

Maybe your head was made of rocks, so it's hard to be emerged. In the end, I only need to let it go. Let it go with the flow. Repair and re-correct your aim. Keep clinging to the greatest one. :)

I'm so startled while looking at the Google doodles today. They are celebrating Mr.Asep Sunandar Sunarya Birthday. He is one of the world's most famous Wayang Golek Masters. I used to enjoy watching his wayang golek show since I was an elementary school student on TVRI JABAR every saturday night. By watching his fabulous wayang golek show, I could spend the sat-night with my father and laughing all night long due to 'Cepot' act. . . . Thanks a lot Mr.Asep for your dedication in preserving the Sundanese culture and colouring my childhood 😊 ( Al-Fatihah ) . . . *Bonus* This is the official credit from Google https://www.google.com/doodles/asep-sunandars-61st-birthday Today we celebrate what would be the 61st birthday of Asep Sunandar, one of the world’s most famous wayang golek masters. Wayang golek is a style of puppet theater that hails from Sunda, in the western part of the Indonesian island of Java. It’s an art form that takes years to master, and is an important piece of Sunda’s culture. Wayang golek puppets are made of wood, and are controlled by rods that are connected to their hands and head. The wayang golek master is responsible for the entire show - he or she decides which story they will tell, most often an Indian epic story, and manages all of the wooden puppets’ movements and voices. Well over 10 characters can appear in each show! Sunandar delighted audiences for years with his performances, which could last from dusk ‘til dawn. Our Google doodle features Sunandar performing with two wayang golek puppets. Happy birthday, Asep Sunandar! (at Serang, Indonesia)

After graduating from High School, somehow this song got disappeared from my laptop. I had struggled to find it. I never realized that this song was created in my High School until I couldn't find it in the whole internet. I browsed every single internet site to find this song, starting from googling it, searching it in Youtube, chasing it in Soundcloud, 'till hunting it in every music site that possible to find. Badly, my struggle was fruitless. ( Before searching in the internet, I tried to ask my batch friends 'bout this song. Coincidentally, they also don't have it ).

A hope came when I asked my junior of High School 'bout this song. He owns it. Finally, He shared this song a couple days ago. Then suddenly, it became my new jam in my playlist.

By listening to this song, I could recall my fabulous High School reminiscences into my mind.
