Tower Infinity, World's First 'Invisible' Tower

Computer Rendering of Tower Infinity

Hellooo people, welcome back!!
I think you've known that I'm a k-popper, right? Well, if you've read all of my posts you would know it immediately. Yes, I'm obsessed by Korea. South Korea more precisely. I love not only their music, but also their culture, language, places, etc ((Of course I love Indonesia more. No worries.)). Nah, right now, I wanna tell you about one of their amazing place. It's called Tower Infinity.

Cheongna City Tower or Tower Infinity or Ecoprism Tower is a proposed tower in Cheongna International City, Incheon, South Korea. It will be located near the Incheon Airport. This tower is actually still a project, not builded yet. South Korean government gave approval to build the tower in September 2013. This tower is dubbed as "World's first 'Invisible' tower". How can it be invisible? They use a high-tech LED facade system, this technology will allow the tower to blend in with the surrounding skyline, so it looks like the tower is invisible.



The building will be spread over an area of 145,500 square metres (1,566,000 sq ft). The tower's height will be 450 metres (1,480 ft) and it will make the tower being the sixth highest tower in the world and the third highest observatory in the world. It will be the sixth highest after Tokyo Sky Tree (634 m (2,080 ft)), Guangzhou TV & Sightseeing Tower (600 m (2,000 ft)), CN Tower (553.3 m (1,815 ft)), Ostankino Tower (540.1 m (1,772 ft)), and Oriental Pearl Tower (468 m (1,535 ft)).




Capturing and processing of image from camera
The tower has an ability to 'disappear'. How? The tower will have high definition cameras placed at three different levels on all six sides of the tower. The cameras will acquire real time images. These images will be processed and will be stitched into a monolithic image that will be projected by 500 rows of LED screens to the other side of the building. Because of the arrangement of the LED screens, the tower will appear invisible from only certain points distributed around the tower. The screens will be so arranged that the tower will be visible from high altitudes, such as to airplanes and birds.

 The tower will be used for entertainment and leisure purpose. It will have a 4D Theatre, restaurants,  a water park, landscaped gardens and the third-highest observation deck in the world. And it will also have 15 floor and 2000 parking lot.

Well, I think the tower is so impressive, do you agree? Even if it haven't builded yet I still can imagine how the tower will be. LOL blame my oh-too-high imagination. Imagine, when you're arrived at South Korea and walk out from Incheon Airport you'll be welcomed by an amazing building! Let's experience it by ourselves, aye? But before we go there, let's save some money first ((OMG I really need to save money, why did I keep buying foods?!)).

Before we end this post, I wanna show you the video of Tower Infinity. The video is actually a short version of my post (?). Hohoho so guys, thank you for reading my post about this amazing building! SEE YOU ON MY NEXT POST!!!! /Teleports to Venus/

Matswapati



Helloooooo people!! Welcome back!!
In this post, I wanna tell you about Matswapati! Do you know what Matswapati is? Matswapati is a culture festival of West Java which is held by SMAN 3 Bandung to introduce West Java's culture to all society, especially teenager, because they're the one who will keep the culture in the future. This event was held on September 27th 2014 at Lapangan Bali, Bandung.

There were some guest stars in this event. One of them was Glenn Fredly! Woaah can you believe it? With only Rp. 25.000 you could meet Glenn Fredly! I think it was very cheap, do you agree? Oh and there's another guest stars like Barsena (The winner of Nez Academy), Saung Angklung Udjo, Komunitas Hong, etc. And there were special performances from our school's club like KPA3, T'sT, KV3, MK3, and LSS.

A few days ago, I was being a reporter. I asked some of my friend, event's committee or not, about the event. Wanna know? :)) Here we go.

First, I asked my friend who's not a student of SMAN 3. She said, Matswapati was a great event because she could meet her old friend and there was Glenn Fredly. The ticket's price wasn't very expensive either, so it was not really a burden for a student like her. BUT, the foods were so expensive! And the location made her shoes and her pants dirty, because there were dusts everywhere.

The next one is my friend who's a student of SMAN 3, from X Science 3 ((Guess who? ^-^)). She said, "I think they choose a wrong place, because when I promoted this event to my old friends they were like 'huh where is Lapangan Bali? I dont think I'll come because I don't know which public transportation I should use' so it makes not so many people came to this event, I mean there were so many people came but when I visited another schools event that took place at 'better' place, there were so many people came. And about the stand I think it was somehow failed because the fact that there were stand who was full of visitor but there were also stand who was so empty". But she also said that it still can be fixed on the next event.

I also asked some of my friends who was a part of the committee of the event. They admitted that there were some lack of the event. But I think it was okay. Because there's no perfect event in this world, right? And I know how hard it is to be a committee. They should make sure that everyone who came feels comfortable and the event must be succeed. It was quiet stressing and very tiring. So I think we must appreciate their hard work, because they already gave their best on it.

Overall, the event is great! Because the ticket wasn't that expensive and the guest stars was very cool. And the fact that it was a Culture Festival, not a Pentas Seni like other school held was making me proud. My school was not mainstream and our event has a meaning ((Not like other event doesn't have a meaning but culture festival have a deeper meaning I guess)). Besides all the lack, we have tried our best to made the event succeed. So, let's give a round of applause!!

Well guys, I think that's all. See you on the next post, people! Don't miss me!! >_< /teleports to Jupiter/

The Unforgettable Moment

from Left to Right - Kai, Sehun, Baekhyun, Chanyeol, D.O., Suho, Lay, Luhan, Tao, Chen, Xiumin

Greetings, people!
Welcome back to this amazing blog, and here I am, patiently waiting for you, my readers (?)
It's been a few days after my last post, do you miss me? Ok no.

Okay people, now I wanna share a story about one of the best day of my life. But before we move to the story, I hope you already saw the picture above and remember their names, because you'll probably get confused if you find those 11 names in the story later :))

Should we start now? Are you ready, guys? Because my fangirling mode will turned on, NOW.

I think you already knew that imma big fan of EXO. And as you can see, all those handsome aliens above are my beloved boyfriends (?) Why did I call them aliens? Because, just like their group's name, they came from EXO Planet. You want to know their history? Why did they came to earth? Here it is.

"When the skies and the grounds were one of legends, through their twelve forces, nurtured the tree of life. An eye of red force created the evil which covered the heart of the tree of life and the heart slowly grew dry. To attempt to keep alive the heart of the tree of life the legends hereby divided the tree in half and hid each side, hence times is overturned and space turns askew. The twelve forces divided into two and created two suns that look alike into two worlds that seem alike. The legends traveled apart. The legends shall now see the same sky but must stand on different grounds. They shall stand on the same ground but shall see different skies. The day the grounds be kept a single file before one sky in two words that seem alike, the legends will meet greet each other. The day the red forces purify and the twelve forces will reunite into one perfect root. A new world shall open up."

Yes, you read that correctly. TWELVE FORCES. You'll probably asking yourself, "Why twelve while there's just 11 men in the photo?" WELL YES THERE'S ACTUALLY 12 OF THEM BUT ONE OF THOSE HANDSOME CREATURES DECIDED TO LEAVE THE GROUP ON MAY 2014, AND NOW IT'S JUST 11 OF THEM. JUST LET ME CRY. ok no.

Oh and to be honest, they're actually a human. Those history above was just a short narration from their music video, MAMA. Hehehe I'm sorry, let's start the story.


Saturday, September 6th 2014 was definitely one of the best day of my life! Why? Because EXO was coming to Indonesia for their first world tour concert AND I WAS SO LUCKY THAT I CAN WATCH THEM WITH MY OWN EYES!! Can you imagine?! You'll see your idol with your own eyes, not from your laptop's screen. It was just . . . woah. I can't find a word to describe my feeling that time. I WAS INCREDIBLY HAPPY.

I went to Jakarta at 01.00 PM and arrived at 04.00 PM. It was such a long journey and I was getting nervous from time to time. The thought of meeting Baekhyun and the other was so overwhelming. I couldn't stop squealing and smiling. It was like a dream come true.

When I finally arrived at Lapangan D Senayan, I immediately went to the ticket box to get my ticket. It was taking a long time, I don't know why. My ticket seemed nowhere to be found, because the worker was taking a long time just to find my ticket. It made me worried, so many thought about not being able to see them haunted me. I kept playing with my hand to shoved the bad feelings away. After about 30 minutes later, I finally got my ticket! I was so relieved. With a new power, I went to the official merchandise stand. Unfortunately, from all those merchandises they actually sell, it was only lightstick left. So, I just bought that. Wanna see?

Tickets and Lightstick

After that, I was standing in a line to enter the venue. The line was so long, and we supposed to walked slowly while raised our ticket. Our ticket was checked for about 4 times, such a strict security, right? On the way inside, there was a fan project that given out a flag and a fan for all of us. And finally, I arrived at my section. The first thing I saw was the stage. And the first thing that appeared in my mind was "OH MY GOD, WHAT A BIG STAGE" because, seriously! The stage was very huge and amazing!!







AND FINALLY, THE CONCERT STARTED.
Everyone was screaming, like me. We were so excited. The concert was opened with a video, about EXO and their superpower ((Which was exist only in their music video of course)). And yeah, it was so noisy. But it was so . . . asdfghjkl ((I don't know what to say)). And after that, it was their debut song, MAMA. That time, I wasn't able to see anything, even the big screen besides the stage. All I saw was just head and head. WHY AM I SO SHORT?! I was so close to crying. I keep asking my self "Are they even real? Because they are nowhere to be seen!". It was so hurt. I went from Bandung to Jakarta and all I saw was just their face on the screen. "It feels like watching them from my laptop's screen. So what am I doing here?" is all I thought.

And suddenly . . . when I was already pessimistic. Someone walked pass me. Someone walked pass me. And it was Chanyeol. YES OMG IT WAS CHANYEOL. IT WAS THE REAL CHANYEOL. RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME. I'm too speechless. I just stood there with wide eyes, not being able to say something. And when my senses was back, I was screamed. So loud. Like my life depends on it. Ok no I was just exagerrating :))

But I'm serious!! After Chanyeol walked pass me, the other joined. Soon, it was Xiumin, and then Kai, Suho, Lay, and the other. And when Baekhyun walked pass me, I felt like I was going to faint. Hoho okay I'm exagerrating. But, the only thing  passed my mind that time was "OH MY DEAR GOD THEY ARE INCREDIBLY HANDSOME". They are much more handsome in real life.

Something that made me almost forgot how to breath was when they were making an eye contact with me. YEAH EYE CONTACT GUYS, DO YOU KNOW HOW LUCKY I WAS? They were smiling from time to time, even though they were so tired. But what touched my heart was they were trying hard to cover their fatigue just for us, their fans. They smiled widely to informed us that they were okay, that they were not tired at all, and it was somehow hurt. They worked so hard. And we can do nothing to lessen their pressures. So we can just promised to our self to always be there for them, to never left them, no matter whatever happened. Because they just need a true fan to accompany them in their already difficult life.

I think we're getting out of topic? Should we go back? Hehehe sorry guuuyss >.<

The concert was ended at 09.00 PM. Everyone was so satisfied with the concert. But there were some things that annoyed me. First, there were TRASH everywhere! So many until it felt like a landfill. Second, the place where all the fans stood was just made of triplex! I think it was so dangerous. All of us jumped all the time. I couldn't even imagine what would happened if the triplex broke. And there's some other things but I think I must end this post now before it's getting too long ._.


So, yeah, it was one of my unforgettable moment. WATCHED EXO FROM. EXO PLANET #1 THE LOST PLANET IN JAKARTA CONCERT :)) This is my story, tell me your story ;)) (?)

So guys, finally, this is the end of the post ((Sorry for grammar mistakes, typos, and keep getting out of topic. I'm only humaaan~)). SEE YOU ON MY NEXT POST GUYS!!

Humans, meet Sasha!



Hellooo people!!
So, finally, this is my second post!! Yeaaay~!! /applause/

Have you seen the picture? So, what do you think we're going to talk about right now? Yes genius, we're going to talk about a friend! Well, in this case, my friend. Are you ready? Should we start now? Yes? No? Hehe ENJOY!!

First, I wanna ask you something. Do you still remember me? Yes, I'm that talkative girl who owns this awesome blog (?) And since it's my first year as a high school student, I've met a lot of new people. They're from a different junior high school, and even from different city. Nah, right now, in this post, I'll talk about one of them, one of my new friend. And she is . . . SASHA!! /throws confetti/

Yeaaay let's say hello to Sasha! HELLO SASHA~!!
Well, actually, her real name is Cahyannisa Farah. But you can call her Sasha or Sasya or Syasya or Samsak (?) OK NO, JUST KIDDING, JUST CALL HER SASHA OKAY ((Forgive me Sha, please don't kill me . . .)) She doesn't like to be called Sasya, I don't know why but she said that she just don't like it._. So let's just call her Sasha if you don't want to be killed~ Hehe just kidding. She was born at Banjarmasin, July 16th 1999. Yes, she's a year older than me :)) She live at Sauyunan Mas III street number 6, Cibaduyut Lama, Bandung. She is a former student of Assalaam Elementary School and 2 Junior High School Bandung. And after she graduated from 3 Senior High School ((Which is 2 years from now on)) she will be a student of FK UI and Harvard Medical School ((WITH ME AAMIIN)). Her dream is to be a doctor or a dentist. Let's pray for her, so that she can achieve her dream AAMIIN. Oh and she have a little brother who is 6 years younger than her.

Me and Sasha's first meeting was at Technical Meeting PLiST, July 2014. We were in the same group, Gugus 8. And I clearly remember, she was sitting in front of me at Aula Lama, using a white bag with flower pattern hoho. My first impression when I saw her was calm and pious, because she's a girl with veil haha (?) But in reality, she's just as hyper as I am '-' Maybe she's not really talkative, but she's actually very maceuh (?) So people, my advice for you, don't judge a book from it's cover ;)) Well, me and Sasha can't be separated (?) We're always together from Gugus 8 to X IPA 8 and when we were accepted to be an acceleration student, we're still together in the same class, X Acceleration 2. Cool, huh?

Now hobbies. Sasha's hobbies are mostly same with me. She loves to sing too. She loves to read a novel too. AND SHE LOVES TO FANGIRLING OVER EXO JUST LIKE ME. OH YEAH SHE'S A FAN OF EXO TOO HAHA ((If my boyfriend is Byun Baekhyun, then her boyfriend is Kim Jongin a.k.a. Kai)). That made us close though, since we loves the same thing. We always talk about EXO, everyday, everytime :)) Is it getting out of topic? Hehe I'm sorry.

There's something unique about me and Sasha. Guess what? We have soooo many similarities. Not similarities actually, it's exactly the SAME. We have a same pen with same color, same board, same favorite idol, and even sharing a same pain ((I'm serious though. Today, September 8th, both of us can't walk properly because our thigh's muscle was really hurt. And since our class is on the 3rd floor, we have to walk up the stairs slowly while holding on to something. And believe me when I say it was so funny)). Maybe she's just a big fan of me. Because she know my d.o.b, my address, and even my family._. Or maybe she's a stalker?! /gasps/ Okay this is exagerrating. Maybe we're just a soulmate who have a one heart~ /sings One Heart by Nidji and Agnez Mo/ #JingleHonda (?) ok what is this.

Okay I think it's too much._. I will end it now. Oh no no no please don't cry or have you miss me already? Don't worry, we will meet at my next post ;)) /narcissism/

Oh and this is a photo of me and Sasha for you who curious about our pretty face!! (?) ((If you need our autograph you can come to X Acceleration 2 class)) ok what.


Okay that's it. SEE YOU ON THE NEXT POST!! /teleports to Saturn/

He's 5 years younger than me and he's a 4 grader in my old elementary school. Just like I said before, he can be very annoying sometimes, but he can be very sweet too. Sometimes we can be a good partner and cooperate for something :)) He may be so annoying and everything but our house feels so quiet if he's not there. Well people, before it's getting too far let's go back to the topic.

Okay what's next? Mmm . . . Let's talk about hobbies? Well I have so many hobbies and I think you'll get tired to read them all ((And I don't want you to get tired, what a good girl I am)) so let's just talk about some of them. First, SING.

I'm not perfect and I have so many flaws cause I'm only humaaan~ /sings Human by Christina Perri/ ok what let's go back to the right way (?) I'm actually a lazy girl. Well, a VERY lazy girl. When I need to do my homework or something I'll just say to my self "Well, that homework can wait, just let me have some fun with my phone" or "I'll do that later, I need to see my boyfriend now ((read: My handsome-funny-cute-perfect-lovely boyfriend Byun Baekhyun of EXO)) *fangirling mode: on*" WELL YEAH IMMA BIG FAN OF EXO DO YOU HAVE ANY PROBLEM? For you who don't know EXO you can ask Mr. Google ok ;)) Enough, back to the topic. I also a MOODY girl. I may be very happy and talkative and hyper at the moment but I can turn to be so grumpy and badmood in the next minute like even the smallest thing can bother me . . . Yeah just as simple as that :/ Wait, why am I talking about the bad side of me . . . Okay for those who wanna be friend with me or those who just know me please don't avoid me, I wont bite >_<

Okay I think it's enough for now ((What are you thinking? It's way too much, you weird girl)).
