Dewa Athena

21st February 2015 was the first day of Dewa Athena. Dewa Athena is a sport event in SMA 3 Bandung that consists many sports competition, such as futsal, basketball, badminton, dodgeball, relay race, table tennis, and tug of war. Dewa Athena is an abbrevation of "Olimpiade Siswa-Siswi Ajang Unjuk Bakat dan Kemampuan". It was held from February to May. The last day of Dewa Athena is held at the same time with Paman Gober, an event where we had to ride our bikes. 

We gathered at Bali Field around 08.00. It was opened by the speech of the headmaster of SMA 3 Bandung, Mr. Encang Iskandar, the president of student council, Yasyril Mumtaz, and the chief of Dewa Athena, Nissa Febriani. And MC of that event are Firza Haikal and Nadya Rahmani. 

After the opening, we had to run around SMA 3 Bandung, or we usually called it as "Keliling Indonesia". We ran passing through many streets, and when we back to the Bali Field, the committees squirted us some paints to our clothes. So our clothes were so colorful that day. 

Because our class, X IPA 8, had no schedule that day, so we just watching other class competition. Although we didn't play, we still had so much fun.

Arctic Hares

The arctic hare lives in the harsh environment of the North American tundra. These hares do not hibernate, but survive the dangerous cold with a number of behavioral and physiological adaptations. They sport thick fur and enjoy a low surface area to volume ratio that conserves body heat, most evident in their shortened ears. These hares sometimes dig shelters in snow and huddle together to share warmth.

Hares are a bit larger than rabbits, and they typically have taller hind legs and longer ears. Like other hares and rabbits, Arctic hares are fast and can bound at speeds of up to 40 miles (60 kilometers) an hour. In winter, they sport a brilliant white coat that provides excellent camouflage in the land of ice and snow. In spring, the hare's colors change to blue-gray in approximation of local rocks and vegetation.

Arctic hares are sometimes loners but they can also be found in groups of dozens, hundreds, or even thousands of individuals. Unlike many mammals, arctic hare groups disperse rather than form during mating season. Animals pair off and define mating territories, though a male may take more than one female partner.

Females give birth to one litter per year, in spring or early summer. Two to eight young hares grow quickly and by September resemble their parents. They will be ready to breed the following year.
Food can be scarce in the Arctic, but the hares survive by eating woody plants, mosses, and lichens which they may dig through the snow to find in winter. In other seasons they eat buds, berries, leaves, roots, and bark.

Traditionally, the arctic hare has been important to Native Americans. These fairly plentiful animals are hunted as a food resource and for their fur, which is used to make clothing.

Isn't She Lovely

“Isn’t She Lovely” is inspired by the birth of Stevie’s daughter — both lyrically and sonically — as it features the cries of Stevie’s baby on the track. The baby's name is Aisha, means life, new life, living.

The "wonder" of this expression of thanksgiving was that he "saw" this miracle of life not with his eyes, but on a much deeper level . . . with his senses and his heart.

Stevie Wonder, is an American singer-songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, record producer, and activist who happens to be blind.

Born on May 13, 1950 as Stevland Hardaway Judkins, his name was later changed by his mother to Stevland Hardaway Morris when she left his father. Becoming blind shortly after birth, Stevland developed into a musical talent at an very early age. Upon signing with Motown Records' Tamla label at the age of eleven, he was dubbed "Little Stevie Wonder" by record producer, Berry Gordy. Of course as Wonder became a young adult, he dropped the "Little" from his stage name and is forever known as Stevie Wonder.

Needless to say, "Isn't She Lovely" written and performed by Stevie Wonder continues to inspire millions even today.




Isn't She Lovely lyrics :

Isn't she lovely
Isn't she wonderful
Isn't she precious
Less than one minute old
I never thought through love we'd be
Making one as lovely as she
But isn't she lovely made from love

Isn't she pretty
Truly the angel's best
Boy, I'm so happy
We have been heaven blessed
I can't believe what God has done
through us he's given life to one
But isn't she lovely made from love

Isn't she lovely
Life and love are the same
Life is Aisha
The meaning of her name
Londie, it could have not been done
Without you who conceived the one
That's so very lovely made from love
