This Guys is Ridiculously Unbelievable | Harry Baker, TEDxExeter





His name is Harry Baker and he's a poet. An amazing one. I really find him different to other poets out there because of his speaking pace and the selection of words and... I don't know he's just amazing.



In this video he presented 3 of his poems. The first one was called "59". It's a story about a boy called 59 who loves a girl called 60 but his love to her didn't really end in a happy fashion.

The second one was, technically, the best poem in the world at that time. It's called "paper people". It tells about this imaginary paper world where things are quite similar to the real one. The good stuff, and the bad. I find this poem really really awesome because of how it tells about the truth in a very unique, weird, and exciting way.

The third one is called "The Sunshine Kid". It's a story about the Sunshine Kid who was supposed to shine bright but he was shadowed by the "Shadow People" and he couldn't really shine. Until, he met "Little Miss Sunshine" who changed everything.



I really really urge you guys to watch this. I've watched this video many many times and it never gets old. In fact, every time I watch this video, an urge to be creative flows through my mine. His poems somehow became inspiration to me. So go on watch it! I hope it could give you the same sort of excitement that I experienced...

Speech Script: Being an Introvert

Hey, Guys. I thought I'll share another speech script today. I used this script when I was competing in a competition held by a Senior High in Bantul, Yogyakarta Special Area. I got 1st in that competition so I think this one is pretty good. And I also wanna say that in this speech script I slipped in a little personal story of mine. So it's gonna be a little hard if you're going to copy it haha... So here you go. I’ve always felt that I’m different compared to most people. At least compared to most students in my school. On break time, they like to gather in groups and gossip about someone or chat about the current trends. I prefer not to. If I necessarily have to get involved in a group chat outside my class, I always try not to do the unnecessary. Not to talk too much. Some people say that I’m shy and weird. Some even say I’m arrogant and antisocial. The truth is, I’m an “introvert”. So ladies and gentlemen, the honourable judges, and my fellow competitors, this morn

Creating Contents and Getting it Out

Whether it's writing, typing, or making videos, getting stories out there into the public is a form of content creating. The stories in the form of words that you write or type and the videos that you film and produce will be seen by people and therefore your content would serve it's purpose. It could be an entertaining story, or something that has educational value, or anything. Content creating is very fun and it could "force" you to keep pushing your boundaries until you find new ones. Personally, I am a big fan of content creating. Youtube videos, blog writings, news, all that sort of stuff. I think it's one of the easiest ways of sharing positivity to other people around the world (although there are definitely pricks out there who uses this opportunity to spread negativity and fear). As long as you're contents are intended to affect people positively, content creating and content sharing would have so many benefits not only to the creator, but also to

My Not So Professional Take on Indonesia's Education System

    So recently I just had this little realisation. I was about to call it an epiphany but I thought using that word would be a dramatisation, so for the moment let's just call it a minor realisation. So I live in Indonesia which if you don't know already, is a developing country. We have so many things to be proud about like our astonishingly diverse culture and our unique culinary taste. But education isn't one of those things. Education is far from those things. Like our education sucks. I don't exactly know the reason to that. I mean I haven't done a research or anything but I might have some ideas and hypotheses to the situation. The human resource, the gap between islands Firstly, I think the problem comes from the not-so-advanced framework of the whole education system itself. Indonesia comes 4th globally in terms of population. There's about 250 million of us. And yet, our education system doesn't have enough human resource to support
