lyrics hero - mariah cerey

There's a hero
If you look inside your heart
You don't have to be afraid
Of what you are

There's an answer
If you reach into your soul
And the sorrow that you know
Will melt away

And then a hero comes along
With the strength to carry on
And you cast your fears aside
And you know you can survive

So when you feel like hope is gone
Look inside you and be strong
And you'll finally see the truth
That a hero lies in you

It's a long road
And you face the world alone
No one reaches out a hand
for you to hold

You can find love
if you search within yourself
And the empitiness you felt
will disappear


And then a hero comes along
With the strength to carry on
And you cast your fears aside
And you know you can survive

So when you feel like hope is gone
Look inside you and be strong
And you'll finally see the truth
That a hero lies in you

Oh ho, Lord knows
dreams are hard to follow
But don't let anyone
tear them away, hey yea

Hold on
there will be tomorrow
In time, you'll find the way, hey

And then a hero comes along
With the strength to carry on
And you cast your fears aside
And you know you can survive

So when you feel like hope is gone
Look inside you and be strong
And you'll finally see the truth
That a hero lies in you

That a hero lies in you
Mmm, That a hero lies in you

saman dance

Aceh, a province located in the northwest Indonesia, is much influenced by the Islamic culture. Hence the traditional art such as folk songs and dances mostly represent the love and the thankful to God (Allah). One of the most famous traditional dance from Aceh is Saman dance. If the Indonesian students who study abroad are asked to perform Indonesian traditional dance, usually they perform it because the dance is very unique. ^_^

Saman, which was named from a famous Islamic figure, is also known with the name "Dance of a Thousand Hands". An ensemble of men and women, perfectly lined up in a row, their arms weaving complex patterns as the tempo quickens. From the Gayo highlands of Aceh on the island of Sumatra, the Saman dance was originally performed to celebrate noble occasions, as well as to celebrate the birth of Prophet Muhammad. It is an electrifying blend of dance and music, truly a feast for the eyes.

culture of north sumatra

In contrast to the small island of Bali, the province of North Sumatera is large with one of the biggest lakes in the world, Lake Toba, at its navel. The continuous mountain of Bukit Barisan, which extends from Aceh at the tip of the island of Sumatera to Lampung at the bottom of the island, guards the province on the west side, providing home for thick, tropical jungles and lush vegetations. As you go down the western mountains towards the beaches of the east, mountain streams, strong rivers, and gorgeous waterfalls will accompany you.
Relative to Bali, North Sumatera has very heterogenous ethnic groups, and thus, cultures. The people of the eastern coasts, also known as the Malays (Melayu) have markedly different traditions and culture from the Batak highlanders who live around Lake Toba and Samosir Island. Further south, the Mandailings and Angkolas, and the Island of Nias, have yet more flavors of traditions and culture.
There are many places to see in this cultural salad bowl:

Medan
The capital of the province of North Sumatera, Medan houses the government offices and business centers, effectively making it the largest city outside of the island of Java. Medan owes its cultural heritage to the kingdom of Deli, whose place of worship, Mesjid Agung (Grand Mosque), and palace, Istana Maimun (The Maimun Palace) undoubtedly show its past greatness.

Lake Toba
Lake Toba, the crater lake in the middle of the province, is a popular tourist resort, especially the town of Parapat on its shore. Its cool and dry mountain climate makes it the perfect place to relax.

The Batak Toba and Batak Simalungun people live around Parapat. The Batak people, composed of Batak Toba, Simalungun, Pak-Pak, and Karo, are known for their expression, which is often materialized in lively and sentimental love songs. If every person in Bali can carve, every person in Batak can sing or play the guitar.

The Karo highland
As you drive south from Medan into the Karo highland, the Great Bukit Barisan Forest Park greets you with its distinctive Karonese gazebo decorated with ret-ret, a two-headed, lizard-like animal that is carved on the walls of traditional Karonese family houses. Along the windy, mountainous road to the Karo highland, as you pass the Sibolangit National Garden, chants of monkeys and possibly orang-utans will accompany you, mysteriously appearing and disappearing from the thick jungle.

The town of Berastagi, located at the foot of Mount Sibayak, will greet you with its lovely flowers. The smell of fresh vegetables and the colorful and aromatic arrangements of fruit will etch their place in your memory. Try markisah (Passion Fruit)...
Sipiso-piso Waterfall and Tongging
Further south from Berastagi and Kabanjahe, the Karonese portion of Lake Toba is marked with a thin yet tall waterfall.

Nias
Island Off to the west of the island of Sumatera, the island of Nias provides another item in your cultural plate with its distinct culture. The water surrounding the island is a great place to surf and to scubadive.

artikel active and passive voice

When I returned home I dusted off old college grammar books, determined to study this thing called "passive voice." As I did, I discovered the workshop leader gave us excellent advice.
I found passive voice is easy to recognize and cut from my writing. I also learned removing it breathes life and flare into my work. Eliminating passive voice pares excessive words from the piece and causes the words to race along through action.
Passive voice almost always uses a form of the verb "to be." "To be" indicates an object "is"–it simply exists. There is no action, therefore the sentence is passive, or is said to be in "passive voice."
The forms of the verb "to be" are: is, are, was, were, am, be, been, and being. Forms of "to be" can also hide in contractions such as it’s, they’re, you’re, wasn’t, weren’t, and aren’t.
Passive voice dulls writing in three ways. First, action comes through the verbs, pushing the story onward and pulling the reader along. Passive verbs provide no action. No pushing. No pulling. So the action slows or stops.
Second, passive voice generally requires more words, which slow down the action. Just as a pot of simmering soup becomes more flavorful and potent as excess water boils off, so our writing becomes more intense and sharp as we "boil off" excess words. Flavorful, potent, intense, sharp writing is something readers like and editors love.
Third, passive voice obscures or omits the actor and therefore, is less direct and often vague or confusing. Active voice, on the other hand, is direct and dynamic.
To cut passive voice from your writing, start by identifying every occurrence of a passive verb in your manuscript. I check my work for passive voice as one of my final editing steps. If I’m working on a long work like a novel, I break it up into manageable pieces, such as doing one scene or chapter at a time.
If you’re working with a hard copy (on paper), use the list of "to be" verbs provided above and circle every form of the verb throughout your manuscript.
