PUISI

~unforgettable

as I step aside from the quiet
you come with me ..
Pensive my time itself..
You come before me.
Silent whispers in the sky..
Is there the sweetest heart in you ..
Asaku can not answer ..
A sense of affection paralyze my soul ...
Now you become an unforgettable ...
In my life ..
In my heart.
In my loneliness ..
In the end of my life!

*success is nothing more than a few simple disciplines, practiced every day :)
When one door of happiness close, another door opened.
But often times we stare too long at the closed door so as not to see another door that opened to us:)

PUISI

No doubt I often pour the ink into the well of life ...
Asker by hand to break absence ...
Yet,
You was my dear friend ...
You smile is a form of sacred beings ..
You rustle is capable of drying tears.
And, you is the spirit that lives in the soul..
ooh poetry ..
you who frequent human attention from the heaven of eternity ..
you heart is santapannya. love is the wine.
while you are a true poet.
Who never finished in time for the recalled swallow.
I ...........
I am a new citizen of the world ..
Where is the human pursuit of material ..
And poetry merely commodities.

The prevalence of female smokers in 2001 was 1.3 percent and rose to 4.5 percent in 2004, according to the National Economic Social Survey 2004, in fact TembakauIndonesia. This year the estimated 5 percent of women in Indonesia who smoke.
By the higher number of women smokers is unfortunate. According to the Minister of Health, Endang Rahayu, it was caused partly by the imaging campaign of the tobacco industry. Hence the theme of Anti-Tobacco Day theme this year's World Women and Smoking Issues.
In addition to being active smokers, were far more women who become passive smokers. An estimated 65.6 million women and 43 million children in Indonesia exposed to smoke. This occurs because 91 percent of smokers smoke at home, not far from his wife and children. In fact, the dangers of passive smoking with active smokers.

The Reason Is Because I Love You The Reason Is That I Love You

It’s Saturday night, 9 pm. You’re sitting on the bench with your sweetheart, watching the rain falling from the sky. All of a sudden you feel the urge to express your deep passion for your sweetie. So you go, “The reason I’m here is because I love you.” Oops. “Is it ‘because’ or ‘that’?” you wonder.
Well, this is a common mistake that we, English learners, often make. This, some argue, is caused by the influence of our own language. We say “The reason i was in here is because i love you”. However, English does not follow the same logic. The verb “is” in the sentence is a linking verb. It is followed by a subject complement. A noun, a noun clause or an adjective can function as a subject complement. However, a subject complement can never be an adverb.
Let’s take a look at this example: “My father is a lawyer”. In this sentence “a lawyer” is a subject complement (a noun). Another example is: “Hilary Duff is pretty”. “Pretty” in this sentence is an adjective. Now, let’s refer to our previous two examples. In “The reason is that I love you” the linking verb “is” is followed by a noun clause “that I love you”. “…because I love you”, on the other hand, is an adverbial clause (it states the reason). This is not acceptable because an adverbial clause follows an independent clause (the main clause of a sentence), as in “I want to marry you because I love you.”
So, next time you’re at your sweetie’s home and you feel the urge to say it, just say it right. “The reason I’m here is that I love you.”

In the article, there are some adverbial clause, namely:
1. So
2. Because
3. That
4. That we
5. However, and
6. As
