Dear Diary,
I never succeed at anything. Even when I try hard, I fail. If I do the best, something still goes wrong. Remember when my car broke down when I was giving mother a ride to the supermarket? Or the time I burnt the dinner I was making on Mother's Day? I thought hat moving away from home to go to school would surely change my luck. I was certain that my luck was going to change for the better. I guess I was wrong.

It's true that when it rains it pours! My first day of high school was supposed to be special but today I've had the most awful luck! Once again, nothing went right for me. For example, this morning the weather was fantastic so I decided to walk to my first class. I left early. It was nice when I left, but on the way to school the weather changed suddenly. It started to rain really hard. I hadn't brought an umbrella., so I ran to find some shelter. As I was running on the side walk the heel of my shoe broke and I went flying. I scraped both of my hands on the cement and tore my new backpack. I immediately thought to my self, 'This can't be happening to me. It's like junior high school over again.' I arrived late for class and soaking wet.

After class, I took the bus home because it was still raining. The bus broke down and we had to wait two hours for another one. When I finally got home, there was a message from my teacher. He said that to find another course to take because there weren't enough students in my class. My class had been the only thing to go well today. Why does this always happen to me?

I've tried everything to turn my luck from bad to good. I've avoided walking under ladders. I've never broken a mirror. I even have an cold coin that my father gave me when I was younger that I keep with me all the time because I think it is lucky. I had it with me today but it had no effect. Maybe it's time to throw it away!

I hate days like today. Will my luck ever get better?

The Status Quo right now, we see that students in all around Indonesia has gone their respect to their teacher and also the children itself freely do what they want. For example, the student go away from the lesson or from the school.

This house would implement corporal punishment. Why? It's because the corporal itself its not legalize as the official punishment in that school. So by that, the condition become not clear or blur when the student get the corporal punishment, but the parents itself can being mad or angry and report this problem to education department.

Implement on this motion means that, we want to give a child punishment just for student who breaking the regulation of their school and they also doing something impolite to their teacher, the other people, and etc. what kind of corporal punishment that we means are push up, scott jam, running, and etc. Why we choose this punishment? Because we want the student feel be cured of habit with something impolite which they have done. And then they become discipline because of this punishment.

What do we want in this motion? We want all the students in Indonesia who are the generation to the future have good respect to the other person and also can be discipline student in their life.

Me as the government site of the house want make the regulation about legalize corporal punishment which is not including violence. In fact, many school in Indonesia have violence punishment which is can make a lot of detriments. Such as, the mental of student can be disturbed, the student can wreak their anger to other people, and actually the student can't be discipline because of violence punishment.

People Should Use Trans Jakarta Bus

As we know that the status quo right now in Jakarta, many people have personal car. Because of that, Jakarta always have traffic jam, not only in the morning, but also in the evening everyday. It's very big problem in Jakarta. So, the government makes some ways to solve this problem. One of the ways, they make Trans Jakarta bus which is having a specific line.

People should use the Trans Jakarta bus. Why? Because it can make many advantages for the people who doesn't have vehicles. In the other hands, it can influence the condition in Jakarta. which mean that, Trans Jakarta can change the situation in Jakarta which before have many traffic jam in everywhere, become fluent on the way

The second argument of this text, if the people use the Trans Jakarta bus, they will thrifty the money, because they just cost 3500 rupiahs and they can transit to other place without pay again. And then they don't have to fill the car with gas, which is more expensive than use Trans Jakarta.

Third, if all of the people use Trans Jakarta bus, it will also decrease the polution in Jakarta, because the people always drive their car and ride their motorcycle are decreasing so that the polution will also decrease.

Fourth, when the people has already use the Trans Jakarta bus, it makes the cars and motorcycles in the road decrease, the road will little bit empty and so the Trans Jakarta bus can pass by without the resistor.

Finally, come to my last argument, if the people use Trans Jakarta bus, they will feel more comfort then they use public transportation, motorcycles, and etc. Because the Trans Jakara bus uses air conditioner can fill a lot of people. And if we use the ordinary bus like Kopaja, Metro Mini, bemo, and etc, there a lot of criminals, but not in the Trans Jakarta bus because there is a guard.

So, the conclusion of this text is the Trans Jakarta bus giving us some advantages such as cheap, comfortable, avoid from polution, and avoid from criminality, and make the air of Jakarta is getting better and fresher. And finally, using the Trans Jakarta bus will change the Jakarta's condition. Which full of cars before become fluent and less the fluel using.
