Keburukan Dibalik Kebaikan


Maret 2009, hari yang cerah seperti biasa Ardi yang selalu datang telat ketika masuk sekolah karena rumahnya yang cukup jauh dari sekolah. Tapi itu tidak membuatnya kapok untuk datang telat karena memang dia malas datang lebih awal. Ardi memang memiliki sifat yang pemalas namun dia sebenarnya orang yang memiliki potensi diberbagai bidang. Ardi juga disenangi oleh teman-temannya sehingga wajar Ardi menjadi anak yang cukup gaul karena memiliki banyak teman. Tapi di situlah yang membuat dia semakin hanyut dalam pergaulan. Dia sangat memiliki sifat penasaran yang sangat dalam sehingga dia selalu mencoba hal-hal yang baru walaupun dia tau mungkin akibatnya akan menjadi negatif.
Dia memiliki seorang sahabat yang sangat mengerti kondisi dia disaat apapun. Angga yang telah dia kenal sejak bangku SMP hingga sekarang SMA yang kebetulan memang mereka sekolah di satu sekolah lagi yang sama. Ardi yang memiliki wajah cukup tampan membuat banyak para perempuan menyukainya. Tapi dengan ketampanannya itu tidak membuat ia merasa sombong, ia selalu hormat kepada perempuan terutama para sahabat-sahabat perempuannya. Ia sangat di kenal baik oleh semua orang
Di balik semua sisi kebaikannya itu ternyata Ardi menyimpan banyak rahasia yang tidak di ketahui oleh semua sahabat-sahabatnya. Sahabat-sahabatnya selalu mengira ia orang yang tidak mungkin mempunyai keburukan yang cukup parah. Ia sengaja menyimpan rahasianya karena jika sahabat-sahabatnya mengetahui akan rahasianya.mungkin ia akan di jauhi oleh semua orang terutama para sahabatnya yang sangat sudah kenal ia dengan baik. Namun tak selamanya ia sanggup menyimpan rahasianya itu sendiri,ia butuh seseorang yang bisa ia ajak bicara mengenai hal itu
Tak diduga ia adalah seorang penjajah cinta terutama dalam hal yang intim. Berawal dari rasa penasaran yang sangat mendalam hingga akhirnya membuat ia candu akan hal itu.hanyut dalam kenikmatan sesaat. Walaupun ia tau bahwa yang ia lakukan itu adalah sebuah perbuatan yang tidak terpuji namun ia sangat sulit untuk tidak melakukan hal itu. Ia sudah meniduri beberapa perempuan yang ia kenal tanpa di ketahui oleh semua orang bahkan keluarganya sendiri. Ia sudah hanyut dalam hal ini selama bertahun-tahun hingga membuatnya merasa. Orang-orang di sekitarnya banyak juga yang kadang suka cerita tentang pengalaman mereka akan hal itu, walaupun mereka tidak tahu bahwa Ardi juga sudah hanyut dalam hal itu.
Perasaan bersalah yang terus manghantuinya membuatnya jera dan tak sanggup lagi untuk menyimpannya sendirian. Ia butuh seorang yang bisa merubah dan mengeluarkan ia dari dunia yang di anggapnya kelam. Awalnya ia sangat merasa malu untuk menceritakan tentang hal ini, namun karena ia telah lelah sekali sehingga ia memutuskan untuk cerita kepada Angga. Kenapa Angga karena ia pkir hanya Angga yang bisa mengerti situasi ia walau bagaimanapun.
Akhirnya pada saat jam pulang sekolah dimana semua sahabat-sahabat Ardi telah pulang, di kantin Ardi cerita kepada Angga tentang rahasianya.
Ardi : Ngga w mau cerita nih sama lo. Tapi lo diem-diem aja yak!
Angga : Sok cerita aja. Tenang cerita lo aman ko, gua petiin tar cerita lo. Bang Mie ayam
Satu (angga sambil memesan mie ayam).
Ardi : Gua binggung, sekarang gua jadi ketagihan berhubungan intim sama cewek gua.
Angga : Hah!!! Kacau lo!!! Ko bisa?
Angga sangat terkejut akan hal itu. Ia sangat tidak menyangka bahwa Ardi dapat melakukan hal seperti itu. Tak pernah terlintas sedikitpun di pikiran Angga ia akan melakukan hal itu. Awal Angga binggung harus bagaimana untuk menanggapi masalah Ardi yang cukup membuatnya kaget. Namun Angga sangat mengerti kenapa Ardi sampai bisa melakukan hal itu. Yang Angga takuti hanya bagaimana jika orang lain mengetahui hal ini terutama sahabat-sahabat Ardi yang juga sahabat Angga. Namun Angga telah berjanji tidak akan memberi tahukan tentang hal ini kepada siapapun. Mie ayam yang telah di pesan Angga tidak di makan karena ia sangat terkejut akan hal ini. Angga hanya bisa memberi saran kepada Ardi karena masalahnya ia telah hanyut dalam kenikmatannya.
Sampai kapanpun tidak ada orang lain yang mengetahui rahasia Ardi, mereka selalu mengira Ardi adalah orang yang sangat baik dan tidak mungkin melakukan yang sangat memalukan tersebut. Seseorang yang di kenal sangat baik namun menyimpan suatu keburukan yang dapat menghapus semua kebaikan yang orang ketahui selama ini dan kebaikan yang telah ia lakukan untuk orang lain.

This is about ATTICUS CLOTHING
History
Los Angeles based Atticus Clothing is the original music inspired streetwear brand. For nearly ten years Atticus has been the brand of choice for today’s youth and the bands they love.
Story
Atticus Clothing started in the spring of 2001 on the back lot of a music video shoot in Southern California. The idea had been tossed around for a while of starting a clothing line. But it was on that day, just before having to go out in front of the cameras in someone else’s clothing that represented someone else’s ideas, that the idea was set in motion, and Atticus was born.
Name
The name Atticus came from several places. The literary classic “To Kill a Mocking Bird”, (which also influenced the bird logo), and patron of the arts Herodes Atticus, who spent the bulk of his fortune supporting the arts, building theaters for music and plays in ancient Greece.
Philosophy
The intention was to create a clothing line that didn’t label the wearer as anything but an individual that you couldn’t just look at the person and write them off without even talking to them. The same can be said about music, music can transcend all genres, ages, and races.

What is global warming?
Global warming is when the earth heats up (the temperature rises). It happens when greenhouse gases (carbon dioxide, water vapor, nitrous oxide, and methane) trap heat and light from the sun in the earth’s atmosphere, which increases the temperature. This hurts many people, animals, and plants. Many cannot take the change, so they die.
What is the greenhouse effect?
The greenhouse effect is when the temperature rises because the sun’s heat and light is trapped in the earth’s atmosphere. This is like when heat is trapped in a car. On a very hot day, the car gets hotter when it is out in the parking lot. This is because the heat and light from the sun can get into the car, by going through the windows, but it can’t get back out. This is what the greenhouse effect does to the earth. The heat and light can get through the atmosphere, but it can’t get out. As a result, the temperature rises.
The sun’s heat can get into the car through the windows but is then trapped. This makes what ever the place might be, a greenhouse, a car, a building, or the earth’s atmosphere, hotter. This diagram shows the heat coming into a car as visible light (light you can see) and infrared light (heat). Once the light is inside the car, it is trapped and the heat builds up, just like it does in the earth’s atmosphere.
Sometimes the temperature can change in a way that helps us. The greenhouse effect makes the earth appropriate for people to live on. Without it, the earth would be freezing, or on the other hand it would be burning hot. It would be freezing at night because the sun would be down. We would not get the sun’s heat and light to make the night somewhat warm. During the day, especially during the summer, it would be burning because the sun would be up with no atmosphere to filter it, so people, plants, and animals would be exposed to all the light and heat.
Although the greenhouse effect makes the earth able to have people living on it, if there gets to be too many gases, the earth can get unusually warmer, and many plants, animals, and people will die. They would die because there would be less food (plants like corn, wheat, and other vegetables and fruits). This would happen because the plants would not be able to take the heat. This would cause us to have less food to eat, but it would also limit the food that animals have. With less food, like grass, for the animals that we need to survive (like cows) we would even have less food. Gradually, people, plants, and animals would all die of hunger.
What are greenhouse gasses?
Greenhouse gasses are gasses are in the earth’s atmosphere that collect heat and light from the sun. With too many greenhouse gasses in the air, the earth’s atmosphere will trap too much heat and the earth will get too hot. As a result people, animals, and plants would die because the heat would be too strong.
What is global warming doing to the environment?
Global warming is affecting many parts of the world. Global warming makes the sea rise, and when the sea rises, the water covers many low land islands. This is a big problem for many of the plants, animals, and people on islands. The water covers the plants and causes some of them to die. When they die, the animals lose a source of food, along with their habitat. Although animals have a better ability to adapt to what happens than plants do, they may die also. When the plants and animals die, people lose two sources of food, plant food and animal food. They may also lose their homes. As a result, they would also have to leave the area or die. This would be called a break in the food chain, or a chain reaction, one thing happening that leads to another and so on.
The oceans are affected by global warming in other ways, as well. Many things that are happening to the ocean are linked to global warming. One thing that is happening is warm water, caused from global warming, is harming and killing algae in the ocean.
Algae is a producer that you can see floating on the top of the water. (A producer is something that makes food for other animals through photosynthesis, like grass.) This floating green algae is food to many consumers in the ocean. (A consumer is something that eats the producers.) One kind of a consumer is small fish. There are many others like crabs, some whales, and many other animals. Fewer algae is a problem because there is less food for us and many animals in the sea.
Global warming is doing many things to people as well as animals and plants. It is killing algae, but it is also destroying many huge forests. The pollution that causes global warming is linked to acid rain. Acid rain gradually destroys almost everything it touches. Global warming is also causing many more fires that wipe out whole forests. This happens because global warming can make the earth very hot. In forests, some plants and trees leaves can be so dry that they catch on fire.
What causes global warming?
Many things cause global warming. One thing that causes global warming is electrical pollution. Electricity causes pollution in many ways, some worse than others. In most cases, fossil fuels are burned to create electricity. Fossil fuels are made of dead plants and animals. Some examples of fossil fuels are oil and petroleum. Many pollutants (chemicals that pollute the air, water, and land) are sent into the air when fossil fuels are burned. Some of these chemicals are called greenhouse gasses.
We use these sources of energy much more than the sources that give off less pollution. Petroleum, one of the sources of energy, is used a lot. It is used for transportation, making electricity, and making many other things. Although this source of energy gives off a lot of pollution, it is used for 38% of the United States’ energy.
