Analytic Exposition - Infotainment

As we all know, infotainment is like our daily meal, we have it like everyday and not only once a day but twice a day on every channel. So many infotainments that we watch everyday, and also so many informations that we get everyday. People have their own opinion, there are pros and contras. Let's discuss about them one by one.

Let's start with the pros. The pros from infotainment are it serves us the trending topic or what's hot of the week? It's also interesting, such a good entertainment for us after we had a hectic and busy day that makes us boring. Infotainment are also used for advertisement, many celebrities act and present the product in infotainment. Lifestyle, yes lifestyle. Infotainment is a big part of lifestyle, such a huge part. If there's people who don't watch infotainment, other people who watch it will like yell at them? Sort of. 

Done with the pros, let's talk about the contras. Infotainment also has contras, absolutely, they are, not good for under-age children, because infotainment is suitable for teenagers and adults who already can decide which is good and which is not. Serves many cheesy news or gossips and also not educating. Many gossips that brings defamation and many people will offended by it.

In my opinion, we are as the viewers must be selective about which infotainment or show that we should watch or not.

The Tiger

The tiger is the largest cat species. Reaching a total body length of up to 3.3 m and weighing up to 306 kg. It is the third largest land carnivore. Its most recognizable feature is a pattern of dark veritcal stripes on reddish-orange fur with lighter underside. It has exceptionally stout teeth

Tigers have lived for 20 to 26 years. Tigers have muscular bodies with particularly powerful forelimbs and large heads. Their faces have whiskers, which are especially long in males. The pupils are circular with yellow irises. The small, rounded ears have black markings.

The pattern of stripes is unique to each animal, and these unique markings can be used by researchers to identify individuals (both in the wild and captivity), in much the same way as fingerprints are used to identify humans.

The function of stripes is likely camouflage, serving to help tigers conceal themselves amongst the dappled shadows and long grass of their environments as they stalk their prey. The stripe pattern is also found on the skin of the tiger. If a tiger were to be shaved, its distinctive camouflage pattern would be preserved

Snidely the Bridge Troll + Summary

Once upon a time there was a troll that lived up under The Creek Bridge down at Low Hollow creek. He was a short ugly fellow, but very strong. His hair was straight, red, and stuck out like a mop. His skin was really wrinkly and felt like sandpaper. His clothes were always smelly. His name was "Snidely." One day, Snidely was sleeping and something woke him up.
Someone was coming! It was a young boy and girl in a carriage.
Every time someone tried to cross the bridge, Snidely would jump out in front, cross his arms and demand one Dollar. "You cannot cross my bridge without giving me a Dollar first," said Snidely, with a scowl on his face. If you didn't pay, he would throw you over the side.
 The boy and girl in the carriage were so scared they could hardly speak. "Ok, we will pay," said the boy to Snidely.
 "We have to get home before the storm," he said to the girl.
 Snidely let them through and waved as they got to the other side and rode out of sight. He really wasn't mean, he just wanted to see if people would really pay.
 Back under the bridge again, Snidely began to hear some wind and it began to rain. It rained harder and harder. Snidely began to worry as the water started to rise in the creek. He was a strong bully, but he could not swim.
Higher and higher it rose. Snidely began to sweat.
 Snidely had to do something quickly or he would be washed down the river.
 He got out from under the bridge and went over to the tall fur tree next to the creek. He figured he would climb up high enough that he would not have to worry about the water.
 Just as he began to climb, he heard, "Stop, you can't climb this tree without paying me Five Dollars."
 It was Chunky the gorilla. Chunky was a nice gorilla, but he was very tired of seeing Snidely causing so much trouble with the people crossing the bridge.
"I only have four dollars," said Snidely.
 "I guess you'll have to swim for it then," said Chunky to Snidely.
 "I don't know how to swim," said Snidely. "I will surely drown!
 "That's a bummer, you should have saved your money" said Chunky.
 "I tell you what I'll do" said Chunky. "If you will agree not to charge people for crossing the bridge anymore, I will not only let you climb my tree, but you can come into my house and have dinner with me, as I was just getting ready to sit down and eat."
"It's a deal," said Snidely.
They sat down, ate dinner, and became very good friends.
 From that day forward, Snidely became known as the nice troll that lived under the bridge. Whenever someone came down in the hollow to cross The Creek Bridge, Snidely would walk and talk with the them as they went across. Sometimes he would even sell them drinks and food from the little store he started next to the bridge.
 Now people come to The Creek Bridge, whenever they can, to see Snidely. He is actually a real fun guy!
The end.

"You should never bully people or act greedily towards others, because you never know when they may be in a position to really offer you a helping hand."

About Me

My name is Ferdi Endinanda. I was born in Pekanbaru, 10th March 1997. I'm the fourth child. I live in Bandung with my mother. My father works at Jakarta.

I graduated from kindergarten named Cendana Rumbai, SD Cendana Rumbai, SMP Cendana Pekanbaru. And now, I’m a student of SMAN 3 Bandung. First time, I thought I would be very busy with homework here and just study study study. And... it’s true, but I’m also busy with extracurricular and organization. And also there's a lot of fun here, because my friends dont just study too hahaha. SMAN 3 Bandung have a lot of extracurricular, and I decide to join Association of Nature Explorers Jamadagni and KOMISI 3. I found a lot of fun there, joining extracurricular is like refreshing. In those organization i feel like having another home.
I focus more on Jamadagni, because there i got a lot of things like learn to be responsible, appreciate friends more, having good mental and many more. I admit that in Jamadagni i got a lot of things. 
I was just recently from Mount Semeru on an expedition about the trash that is on the mountain, especially the campsite. You can see more on our website. Click Here.



 




My hobby besides hiking is playing billiard, hangout with my friends, or just sleep along day.

Now, I would like to tell you about my family. My father worked at Jakarta as a oil engineer consultant. His name is Ir. Fuaadi Ibrahim. My mother was a chemist after her college but after she had children, she became a housewife. Her name is Dra. Ernani Burhanudin. My brother, Pinto Fernanda and my first sister, Renokanti Riananda already worked at Jakarta. My second sister, Lasti Erfinanda is still in medicine school at Germany.

Last, about my weakness, I'm a very very lazy person. I'd rather play with my friends than studying, but study is important so i still study to fix my score in school. My strenght is friendly, organized, a good listener, and hardworker.
