David Archuleta's third album............

       David Archuleta's third album, The Other Side of Down, is simple. However, it's so not right that is simplicity is definitely not enough to showcase his angelic voice. It looks like the label has just pinned their hopes on the singer's success as an American Idol runner-up. As the songwriter for 10 of 12 songs on this album., David doesn't seem to want to leave his comfort zone yet - as proven by the music arrangements. With this album, he just wants to share his fun, and that's how this album got its tittle.

We Are Not the Only One

       No man is an island. That means nobody can live alone. That also applies to a country like indonesia. The people work together, learn from each other, and influence one another.
        The example such as : our life in college, We can't stand alone to get the scient or scholarship without our lecturer and their scients. And in general too, we can't stay or stand alone without someone backup us. so, in academic organization too, the organization stand from student to student. And then we must give up and say never bored with all activities we have.
         And back to our country, no wonder we have loads of similarities with our neighbors in terms of culture, attire, and cuisine. Some of their aspects are totally similar.
