my hometown

My hometown is Pekanbaru City. Pekanbaru City is the capital city of Riau Province. It is located in the center of Riau Province, and has a low land for its topography. It is usually very hot during the dry season. At this time, the wind is very dry, but the air is moist with oil. Bit when the rain season comes, it is usually causes flood in some area in the city. It is usually happens to places near the Siak River.
Pekanbaru city is one of the cities with the highest income in Indonesia. Because as the capital city of Riau province it has the responsibility to take care of the finance for the oil of Riau province (Riau has two of the biggest oil company in Indonesia). This may be one of the reasons that this city is developing very fast than any other capital city in Sumatra (with the exception of Medan). It is now beginning to build many high building and working to become a developed city.

Things That I Like and Dislike

When we are living our life, there is always things that we love to do, bit there is also things that we hate. In this essay I will tell you the one thing that I truly love and the one thing that I rather not do.
If you are talking about me, it wouldn’t be complete if you’re not talking about my addiction to football. I adore this game. And I have been in love with it almost my whole life. When I am playing football my entire world seems to stop and my mind just sets on scoring score after score. It becomes a place where I can forget all my emotions, problems and just forget about what’s bothering me. In another way it is where I run to get help from the complication of my life.
Football is so important in my life. It has been like my one to friend who can help me all the time. Even if u asked me to compare this game to my girlfriend, I would still say football is my number one. I love my girlfriend but I’m sorry to say that I love this game better.
For the thing I hate the most is studying subjects that requires calculating numbers, like mathematic, chemistry and physic. It is complicated and makes my head dizzy. It requires so much thinking and it makes me very frustrating when I can’t understand the equation. Maybe that is why I chose to major in architecture where my imagination is more important rather then my numeric capability.

What I like and What I Don’t

Basically, I like to do outdoor activities. It is more fascinating to do outdoor activity since I can see and learn more. However, it doesn’t mean that every outdoor activity is my favorite activity. There are some activities which I like most and there are some which I don’t.

Traveling is one of my favorite outdoor activities. Since I just moved into a new city and a new environment, I am eager to know more about the city. It encourages me to travel around the city. From my journey, I found that there are many new interesting things which I never seen before in my hometown. Then I start to memorize it by using camera and until now taking a picture on the situation around this city has become one of my favorite activities during my spare time. Besides that, I also discovered many things about the local people culture or about their daily attitudes. I found that there are some differences between the local culture and my hometown culture and until now I still adapt into the new culture. Recently, I realized that traveling around the city has become an important activity since it can bring me many advantages.

In other hand, I rarely want to go to plaza or shopping centre since I don’t think I have any favorite activity at there. However, it doesn’t mean I never want to go to plaza. Usually I go to plaza when I got something to buy or something to search. If I don’t have any purposes at there, I will rather go to more interesting places or just stay at home.

Good, thanks for posting.

Travelling

Travelling is one thing I like to do. To travel means I can go to
one place to another. It's not really matter whether I go on a
holiday or not, but it's the feeling of being in new environment
that makes me excited, especially when I'm able to go with
some of my closest persons.

The thing I love the most about travelling is discovering new
places and cultures while in the same time experiencing new
things also. For example when I went to a small village in West
Java, I could see what they did for a living in real life or talk to
them about their daily activities. When only watching it could
make me happy, getting the chance to experience one day or
more in a different way as I usually did was happier. I was able
to sleep in their house made of bamboo and woods, eat
simple but delicious food, and see their gathering in night. They
were so nice and open to new people, a kind of attitude I
would like to develop in the future. That's why I felt my
journey was important as it could teach me values of life.

Good. Thanks for posting.
