The History of Thanksgiving Day part 2

Diposting oleh chaalittleprincess di 01.40 0 komentar
In November 1621, after the Pilgrims’ first corn harvest proved successful, Governor William Bradford organized a celebratory feast and invited a group of the fledgling colony’s Native American allies, including the Wampanoag chief Massasoit with 20 office men. the Wampanoag chief Massasoit had caught 5 deer to be given to Pilgrims. In December 18th, 1777, Washington had a national day of Thanksgiving to commemorate the British Army, Toga. In the north, they had a ThanksGiving day which was “ due thanks we give and are grateful for every heaping plateful. Pilgrims held their second Thanksgiving celebration in 1623 to mark the end of a long drought that had threatened the year’s harvest and prompted Governor Bradford to call for a religious fast. Days of fasting and thanksgiving on an annual or occasional basis became common practice in other New England settlements as well. During the American Revolution, the Continental Congress designated one or more days of thanksgiving a year, and in 1789, George Washington issued the first Thanksgiving proclamation by the national government of the United States; in it, he called upon Americans to express their gratitude for the happy conclusion to the country’s war of independence and the successful ratification of the U.S. Constitution. His successors John Adams and James Madison also designated days of thanks during their presidencies.
The Thanksgiving day as we know now is the result of the effort of Sarah Josepha Hale. She was the American first female magazine editor, and author of females nursery rhyme “Mary Had a Little Lamb”. For 36 years, she published numerous editorials and sent scores of letters to governors, senators, presidents and other politicians. Abraham Lincoln finally heeded her request in 1863, at the height of the Civil War, in a proclamation entreating all Americans to ask God to “commend to his tender care all those who have become widows, orphans, mourners or sufferers in the lamentable civil strife” and to “heal the wounds of the nation.” He scheduled Thanksgiving for the final Thursday in November, and it was celebrated on that day every year until 1939, when Franklin D. Roosevelt moved the holiday up a week in an attempt to spur retail sales during the Great Depression.
During the civil war, the Thanksgiving was “Awaken in American hearts the love of home and country, of Thankfulness to God, and peace between brethen. Sarah Josepha Hale wrote the letter to the government. A few days after receiving the letter, on October 3rd, 1863, Abraham Lincoln was declaring  the last Thursday of November to be the Thanksgiving day. In 1924, there was a parade that was held by a Macy’s department store which rode in the street of New York and ended at the store.
            There was a congress in 1941, and it was the Thanksgiving day is made a legal national holiday and moved from the last Thursday in November to the 4th, so the Thanksgiving day is on the 22th of November. It also to extend the Christmas shopping seasons. Now, the Thanksgiving day is all about family. It changes from archery and arms to football and parades. The Thanksgiving day is a welcome day of rest to spend with families in recognation and appreciation for all of blessing for which we are thank for.

Thanksgiving is a national holiday in America when there are some important things, such as turkeys, family, foot ball, and parades. Thanksgiving Day is also traditionally a day for families and friends to get together for a special meal. The meal often includes a turkey, stuffing, potatoes, cranberry sauce, gravy, pumpkin pie, and vegetables. Thanksgiving Day is a time for many people to give thanks for what they have.It has a history. In September 1620, the cargo ship of the Mayflower transports a group of passangers to the new world. They are maen, women, and children, and the total is 102 passangers.  After an uncomfortable crossing that lasted 66 days, they dropped anchor near the tip of Cape Cod, far north of their intended destination at the mouth of the Hudson River. One month later, the Mayflower crossed Massachusetts Bay, where the Pilgrims began to work when the winter come at Plymouth. Some of them were ill at that time.
When the spring came (1621), the colony became to change. The colony was visited by several loco indians. He returned with another Native American, Squanto, a member of the Pawtuxet tribe who had been kidnapped by an English sea captain and sold into slavery before escaping to London and returning to his homeland on an exploratory expedition. Squanto spoke English, and he taught the colony how to caught the fish. He also helped the settlers forge an alliance with the Wampanoag, a local tribe, which would endure for more than 50 years and tragically remains one of the sole examples of harmony between European colonists and Native Americans.

All about Morning

I have two classes today, they are Structure 3 and Public Speaking. The structure class is started at 07.00 a.m., and the public speaking class is started at 9.40 a.m.both of my lecturers do not come today. At the first time, I felt so worry about my coming, because I thought that I would come late. When I arrived at class, the class was still not studying yet. It was like "useless", but wait, I should follow the RAI mentoring, and I will follow the examination of "Shalat Jenazah".

I decide to update my blog just know. I also download the Hotshot Shield to open my facebook and youtube account :)
Now, I want to go to Susanti house before I go to the examination. Fighting!!

The Murky Last Night

Last night, I got some terrible confuses. I could not tell all, but I could tell the most terrible confuse. I could not update my blog because of my modem. My modem was not work well. Now, its pulse is blank. I decided to update my blog in the campus. When I wanted to klik "publish post", the modem stopped working. That was why I felt so mad and confuse. I also has a problem with my boy, so my heart was so jet lagged, such as the song lyric.

Finnaly, I decided to go to bed. I wanted to refresh my brain. I slept until morning, and I also pray to Allah so my heart was not jet lagged anymore.

Jet Lag

"You say good morning when it's midnight

Going out of my head, alone in this bed
I wake up to your sunset
And it's driving me mad, I miss you so bad
And my heart heart, heart is so jet lagged
Heart heart, heart is so jet lagged
Heart heart, heart is so jet lagged
Is so jet lagged"

I really like that song. The title of the song above is Jet Lag. The Jet LAg song is sung by Simple Plan ft Natasha Bedingfield. I like that song because the music is pop-rock, and the lyric is also nice. I did not like such kind of pop-rock long ago, but know when that song is released, I like it. The rhtme is "bit", but it is not too rock. When I was sad, I always heard that song, so I could happy again. Let's sing and listen that song.

Missing!!

Diposting oleh chaalittleprincess di 20.04 1 komentar
I always miss my hometown, my senior high school, and some restaurants in my hometown instead of my family. My family is my number one that I always miss about. I do not exactly what the causes of the feel "missing".


Now, I am searching about the causes of 'missing', and I find it here in the site http://www.letstalkrelations.com
"We always wonder that when we miss someone, is it because we love that person, we like that person or maybe it’s just an infatuation?  We keep on fighting with ourselves that what’s the reason for missing that person? Some time we also miss people we hate. Many time we also miss people we fight all the time but when they are not around.
But, when you want to continue relationship with the person you keep on missing, you need to be clear with your intention. According to me there might be following reasons:

  • You also miss someone special when you are in love with that person
  • It might be infatuation ( just for few days ).
  • You respect her/his qualities.
  • That person is always with you when you need someone to lean on."

One Day Full for Family

Diposting oleh chaalittleprincess di 06.25 1 komentar
Today is Sunday, so it is a free day from learning at college. I can take a rest at home, or spend my time for my family here, but today there is a  schedule that we have to go to "Cangkeh" near "Indarung", Padang because of marriage bussiness. My uncle is going to marry at June, and her fiance's house is in the "Cangkeh", that is why my family and I went there.

"Cangkeh"  is very far from my home, so we went by a city bus. There were many people on the bus, so I prefer to stood than sit. I felt not too tired. but after I ate there, I felt so tired. I could not sit on the bus because the seat has been filled by many people, and it also happened when I would go home. I stood again and tried to be patient. In fact, standing on the bus is not too bad, just a little tired but also fun.
So, I spent my time today just with my family. I felt happy because we can go out together with city bus, and it is amazing for me.

Oversleeping!!

Diposting oleh chaalittleprincess di 08.03 0 komentar
Many students get oversleeping, and it makes them not to concentrate when studying. I try to find the causes of the overslepong in the site  http://www.buzzle.com , and here is the result, I just take two causes:
Causes of Oversleeping 
Depression:  Oversleeping during depression is not healthy. Instead, one should establish regular and adequate sleeping hours to get over depression. Because, side effects of sleeping too much can add further mental stress on the person. Lack of motivation is also among mental causes of heavy sleep.

Poor Diet: A poor diet or eating little amount of food can make a person feel tired and sluggish. Eating unhealthy or junk food can lead to drowsiness and one might feel like napping after a heavy meal. Hence, one needs to eat a diet rich in nutrients and include lots of fresh fruits and vegetables in their diet and reduce the amount of junk food and greasy food.

Fasting

Diposting oleh chaalittleprincess di 08.21 0 komentar
I did the fasting this morning. I did it because I want to "change" my blank fasting in the ramadhan month last year, and I have to do it before the next ramadhan month coming. Actually, I find some difficulties on doing it, because I am not common at the weather here. it is too hot, and restraining the thirsty is not an easy job for me. I am from the cool city, and I think I find a chalange to fast in Padang.
I did the fasting with my classmates: Yanti, and Nisa. We have already promised to do "sahur" together but at  our home each. Finally, I can pass this fasting today, and I say "Alhamdulillah" to Allah SWT.

SPRUE !!

Diposting oleh chaalittleprincess di 22.39 0 komentar
I got a sprue yesterday, and it was so hurt me. It is located near my molar, and its shaped is going to big. I could not enjoy my favorite food exactly. Now, I find some information about it from http://www.emedicinehealth.com
Celiac sprue, also known as celiac disease, gluten-sensitive enteropathy, and gluten-induced enteropathy, is a chronic disease of the digestive tract that interferes with the digestion and absorption of nutrients from food. People with celiac sprue cannot tolerate gluten, a protein commonly found in wheat, rye, barley, and to some degree, oats. When affected individuals ingest foods containing gluten, the lining (mucosa) of the intestine becomes damaged due to the body's immune reaction. Because the lining of the intestine contains essentialenzymes for digestion and absorption, its destruction leads to malabsorption, a difficulty in absorption of food and essential nutrients. As result, celiac sprue is often considered a malabsorption disorder. Persons with celiac sprue experience improvement in the condition when on a strict, gluten-free diet and relapse when dietary gluten is reintroduced. With treatment,celiac sprueis rarely fatal. However, untreated and unrecognized celiac disease may slightly increase the risk of developing intestinal lymphoma, a form ofcancer.

Positive Thinking

Diposting oleh chaalittleprincess di 07.24 1 komentar
Today is a day which make me confuse and afraid, First, I felt confuse when I did the Morsyn examination. I have studied about it, but I have not answered all of the questions, especially some difficult questions. I really did not know what the answers are, so I let them blank.
Second, I felt afraid because of the house lizard. I am not afraid about it before, but it lied on my head a minute ago, and it made me "parno". I am afraid that something wrong is going to hit me. I search on google about the house lizard myth, and I find some articles or opini about it. They say that do not too believe at myth. All of the next event is depend on ALLAH SWT. I still afraid when some people says that there is a someone death if the houselizard lies on the head. I directly do the isya pray, and I pray to Allah about the good things. I should  not believe at such kind of myth, I have to believe to Allah.
All I need now is just "Positive Thinking". I need to change my thought and my panic. I hope that I can be a realistic woman because I am not child anymore, and for You, God, please take care of my parents and my families there, I love them so much :)

PANIC!!

Diposting oleh chaalittleprincess di 06.45 0 komentar
I do not know why I am too easy to get panic. If something unusual is driving on me, I always get panic and confuse, and do not find the way how to solve it. When I got panic, everything was wrong in my eyes. I also felt a kind of fearlessness. Now, I am googling about "Panic" it self, and I find it in wikipedia. Check this out!


Panic is a sudden sensation of fear which is so strong as to dominate or prevent reason and logical thinking, replacing it with overwhelming feelings of anxiety and frantic agitation consistent with an animalistic fight-or-flight reaction. Panic may occur singularly in individuals or manifest suddenly in large groups as mass panic(closely related to herd behavior).
The word panic derives from the Greek πανικός, "pertaining to shepherd god Pan", who took amusement from frightening herds of goats and sheep into sudden bursts of uncontrollable fear. The ancient Greeks credited the battle of Marathon's victory to Pan, using his name for the frenzied, frantic fear exhibited by the fleeing enemy soldiers.

Just a Little Harry Potter and The Half-Blood-Prince Review

Diposting oleh chaalittleprincess di 16.38 0 komentar

            I love the movie Harry Potter and The Half-Blood-Prince. It is a sixth movie of Harry Potter, from the sixth novel. This movie is directed by David Yates based on J.K. Rowling’s novel. It is a fantasy movie about Dumbledore’s death. The Half-Blood-Prince kills him. He is Severus Snape, so Harry Potter wants to continue about Dumbledore’s mission, to find all of the Voldemort’s horckrux.
          I like the photography of this movie. It’s fantastic, especially some buildings in Hogwarts school, and also the island where Voldemort save one of his horckrux. It is like a real wizard’s world. I also like the special effects when a Quidittch Competition was held, also in the island. It’s so wonderful, because they look real. The sound effects are also good, especially when Harry Potter fights with Draco Malfoy. The sound of their wizard’s stick is amazing.
          I don’t like about some actions in the first scene. It’s too hard and scary for me. But it’s not a big problem, because I love their acting so much, especially Daniel Radcliffe. He can act very well as Harry Potter in movie. He looks natural. I also like Emma Watson’s acting as Hermione. I give five stars for this movie. It’s excellent!

It made people became scary, because that crocodile had a large body, and very sharp teeth. Evi (40), the owner of the well said that she couldn’t use her water pump for two days. The machine couldn’t work well, and the water couldn’t out. When she was checking her well, she saw a large of crocodile there, and it mouth opened. She felt terrible and unbelievable what she had seen. So she screamed loudly until many people in her neighborhood came to her well. Nobody knew the caused of crocodile’s death. They took out the crocodile together, and lifted it to a large field beside of Evi’s house. It sixteen eggs were buried at that field.

I am always lazy to face monday. There are many reasons why I hate monday, but I will not tell about it here. My reasons are about the assignments and the subjects of my lecture. Now I am trying to control my laziness. I will not success if I always follow my laziness. I always remember what my parents said to me. They said that I had to be dilligent and did all of my assignment.

They are my greatest supporter, and my inspiration. That is why I always miss them and want to go back to my home in Curup, Bengkulu, but I know that I am here for them. I want to be a successful daughter and make them to be proud of me. I want to make so much money that they can go to Mekah to do "Naik Haji"
I hope I can do that.

Ya Allah, please take care of my parents, brother, and sister there. I always miss them, and please make me easier to reach the word "success"

Lady Diana

Diposting oleh chaalittleprincess di 23.38 0 komentar
I am searching about Lady Di, or Princess Diana at http://www.biographyonline.net , and I find her biography. I copy it just a little bit. I am interested in her because she is a smart kind beautiful woman in England. She died and many papparazi wanted to find the pictures of her accident car. The papparazi were paid highly by three tabloids in England, The Sun, The Mirror, and Daily Mail.


Diana was often called Princess Diana by the media and the public, but she did not possess such a title and was not personally a princess, a point Diana herself made to people who referred to her as such. Contrary to belief, being Princess of Wales does not make one a princess in one's own right. It merely indicates that one was married to a Prince of Wales. Princesses in their own right only exist by creation of the monarch or by birth. Diana was in fact the first non-princess to be Princess of Wales for centuries. Previous Princesses of Wales, such as Alexandra of Denmark or Mary of Teck were already princesses by birth when they married a Prince of Wales.
An iconic presence on the world stage, Diana, Princess of Wales was noted for her pioneering charity work. Yet her philanthropic endeavours were overshadowed by her scandal-plagued marriage to Prince Charles. Her bitter accusations via diana princess of walesfriends and biographers of adultery, mental cruelty and emotional distress visited upon her, and her own admission of adultery and numerous love affairs riveted the world for much of the 1990s, spawning books, magazine articles and television movies.
From the time of her engagement to the Prince of Wales in 1981 until her death in a car accident in 1997, the Princess was arguably the most famous woman in the world, the pre-eminent female celebrity of her generation: a fashion icon, an image of feminine beauty, admired and emulated for her high-profile involvement in AIDS issues, and the international campaign against landmines. During her lifetime, she was often referred to as the most photographed person in the world. To her admirers, the Princess of Wales was a role model - after her death, there were even calls for her to be nominated for sainthood - while her detractors saw her life as a cautionary tale of how an obsession with publicity can ultimately destroy an individual.
