Unique Architecture

The Colosseum

The Colosseum is an oval amphitheatre in the centre of the city of Rome, Italy. Built of concrete and sand, it is the largest amphitheatre ever built and is considered one of the greatest works of architecture ever. Amphitheatre is an open air venue used for entertainment, performances, and sports. It was built in 2000 years ago. The Colosseum can hold 50,000 - 80,000 spectators. It was used for gladiatorial contests and public spectacles such as mock sea battles, animal hunts, executions, and dramas based on Classical mythology. 

The Colosseum today is now a major tourist attraction in Rome with thousands of tourists each year paying to view the inner of the Colosseum. There are some parts of the buildings are already crumbling. It happened because the building is old and feeling the effects of earthquakes. Although it is not perfect again but the remaining part of the building which I think looks beautiful even in the presence of such damages.Shows that are popular that day was Gladiator. Gladiator is a show that featured a strong man. He could have fought with others in the Colosseum, or the conquest of the animals are like lions. People really enjoy the show at the time. Now, the Colosseum is not used anymore for actionable fight, but became one of the main tourist destination in Italy besides of visiting Pisa Tower. 

I really like the structure of the building. Maybe it gives the example to all the stadium in the world today. It has oval shape and seats for spectator around the center of the building. It looks like the football stadium but the classic one. I really want to visit this amazing architecture. It looks amazing with the view. The interesting things that now, the Colosseum looks like the old man watching Italy evolving in this modern time. Colosseum as a witness Italy development over time. The modern busy Italy with the Old Colosseum as the background. Cute

Holiday!

My Last Holiday

My last holiday was very good. I love it. But, I feel that the holiday was not long enough. The holiday started from the 24^th of December until the 10^th of January. I spent my first week of the holiday in my house. I just spent a lot of time playing computer games. Maybe, at least I sat in front of my computer for 10 hours a day. I played a lot of online games with my old friend. The only thing that I did outside my house was playing basketball with Ghanes and Najmi at Saparua and after that I watched Star Wars with my old friend.

After the boring first week of holiday, I finally went somewhere. I went to my counsin’s house in Semarang. But, no one went with me there. I went there by myself. I went by train. No one could accompany me because my parents still work at the holiday. After arrived at Semarang, I still did nothing there but playing games. The first day in 

Semarang was at the 31^st of December. I spent the whole day played games with some of my cousins. Because of that day was the last day in 2015, at the night, I with cousins went to hunt some fireworks. I went to Marina Beach. It was very crowded. We didn’t expect that the place would be that crowded. But it was okay. The fireworks was fantastic. I loved it very much. After the firework party, I went home and arrived at maybe 2 o’clock because traffic jam was everywhere. 

I was at Semarang for 5 days. My cousin drove me to some of good place in Semarang such as Lawang Sewu, etc. Every night there, Me and my cousin always ate outside his house and search for some food. And the rest of the time there, I just played games with my cousin. It was like I just change the place to play game. Before, I played in my house. Then, I went to Semarang to play game too. So, nothing really special.

After 5 day in Semarang, I finally went back home by plane. And after I arrived home, I went back to my computer desk and played some games again. What an end of a story. I feel that this holiday was very very boring. Everyday, I just played some games, watched TV, played some games again, watched TV again. I don’t know. Everyday I get bored. But I feel that I need more holiday and this is not enough :).
