Okay, today we will talk about what Country, City and University that we will choose to study. First of all we are choosing Ireland as a country that we want to visit. And then Galway, Galway is a city in the West of Ireland in the province of Connacht. And the last, we are choosing the National University of Ireland, Galway (NUIG) as a place that we want to study. There are some explainations about the country, city and university that we choose and the reasons of it. And also what kind of passport and visa that we need to go there.

IRELAND
Ireland, also described as the Republic of Ireland, is a sovereign state in north-western Europe occupying about five-sixths of the island of Ireland. The capital and largest city is Dublin, which is located on the eastern part of the island, and whose metropolitan area is home to around a third of the country's 4.75 million inhabitants. The state shares its only land border with Northern Ireland, a part of the United Kingdom. It is otherwise surrounded by the Atlantic Ocean, with the Celtic Sea to the south, Saint George's Channel to the south-east and the Irish Sea to the east.

GALWAY
Galway is a city in the West of Ireland in the province of Connacht. Galway City Council is the local authority for the city. Galway lies on the River Corrib between Lough Corrib and Galway Bay and is surrounded by County Galway. It is the fourth most populous urban area in the Republic of Ireland and the sixth most populous city in the island of Ireland.
According to the 2011 Irish Census, Galway city has a population of 75,528; however, the rural county agglomeration is far bigger.
Galway will be European Capital of Culture in 2020, alongside Rijeka, Croatia.
Public Transportation
The main Public transportation in Ireland is Bus. Bus are budget-friendly transportation and convenient way to travel Ireland. Connections between the major towns are generally fast, frequent and reliable.in another hand there is railway but the choice of places to visit will be limited. Generally the railway will bring you to a central destination and from there you will have to rely on other modes of transport. More than likely buses. Add the fact that Irish railways are not known for either cheap fares or luxury and bus travel becomes a sensible option in many cases.
But on longer journeys the train may be better value for money - travel times are usually shorter than on a bus, there are toilets on board and you can stretch your legs by walking about a bit.

National University of Ireland, Galway (NUIG)
The university was founded in 1845 as Queen's College, Galway, and was more recently known as University College, Galway (U.C.G.). It is divided into several colleges including the College of Arts, Social Science and Celtic Studies, the College Medicine, Nursing and Health Sciences, the College of Business, Public Policy and Law, the College of Science and the College of Engineering and Informatics. The university has an enrollment of 16000 (2010).
In our group, for degree we choose Bachelor of Art (BA), School of Languages, Literatures & Cultures and for the major is Major of Classics. So what kind of study that we can learn in Classics ?
The Major of Classics in NUIG will introduce you to some of the oldest (and newest) ways of answering such fundamental questions as ‘What makes us human beings?’ Classics in this university takes on that challenge by orienting ourselves first from ancient Greece and Rome and then broadening the scope, moving back into prehistory and forwards towards the rise of Christian Europe and the Middle Ages, including the place of Ireland in this international process.
There are three basic themes in this study:
Literature and thought
Art and archaeology
Languages and texts
This terms of study will take three years to finished our study. In the first-year you will be introduced about the above three themes in turn, assuming no prior knowledge of the subject and presenting a multi-disciplinary view of Antiquity and its legacy. And for semester one the subject are Myth and Religion in the Ancient City, Written Words and Spoken Languages 1, and Classics in Twenty Objects 1. Mean while for semeter two the subject are Rome and the Genesis of Europe, Written Words and Spoken Languages 2, Classics in Twenty Objects 2.
In your Second-Year Arts you have the opportunity to specialize, either by following a linguistic path and beginning the study of Latin or by focusing on art, archaeology and the history of ideas without language. For semester one the subject are Texts and Transmission, History of the Roman Empire, Visualising Antiquity and Beginning Latin 1. And for semester two the subject are Studies in Ancient Literature and Thought, Introduction to Reception, Studies in the Ancient Imagination, Cultural Impact of Christianity, Beginning Latin 2, and Latin and Historical Linguistics.
In Final-Year Arts and continuing into the MA in Classics, the pattern develops further: material culture is studied in greater depth, literary histories broaden, and original texts in Latin are studied in depth. Final-Year subject for Semester One are Barbarians.There are some options in literature, such as Visual culture and the history of ideas, Representing Rome, Ireland &the Ancient World,And for Language options there are Beginning Latin 1 , Intermediate Latin 1, Advanced Classical &Medieval Latin 1, Reading Ancient Greek Texts, Interdisciplinary option Cultural Impact of Christianity.

The Reasons
Why we choose Ireland and Galway to study ? there are some reasons why we choose it. The first one is because Ireland is a countru full of fresh air and outdoor lifestyles with breathtaking svenery, its a great place to study or live for a short terms. Ireland is one of the attractive country because of the nature and the society. And becuse Irish is rich a heritage in arts and literartures, plenty of literary works was created in there and we can study the background of a literary works in there, so this is the right place to study literature and culture in there. And also because Ireland is one of the best education systems in the world for higher education achievements.
Why we choose the National University of Ireland (NUI) as a place to study ? Because NUI Galway offers a welcoming and supportive environment to help students adjusts university life in Ireland such as visa and immigration advice, counselling and career development. And NUI Galway is ranked among the top 2 per cent of universitie in the world. Galway is known as Ireland's Cultural Heart because of that NUI is the perfect place for everyone who wants to study about literature and culture.

What kind of passport and visa do we need to go there ? As a student who wants to study abroad of course we need some documents like pasport and visa. So what kind of passport and visa do we need ? For the passport we only need the common passport because our purpose is to study not to conduct travel on diplomatic assignment or mission. And for the visa we need Limited-stay Visa because as a student our purpose is to finished our study in that country. So we need to stay for a while in that country thats why we need the Limited-stay Visa.
In our group, we decided to choose British Airways as an airline to go to Ireland and it will transit two times, the first transit is in Hongkong International Airport. Because Hongkong is free visa for Indonesian so we don’t need Visit Visa. And the second transit is in London Heathrow. In London as long as we don’t get out from the airport and as long as we stay in there less from 24 hours we don’t need the Visit Visa.

Harapan Perubahan Kota Jakarta

Saya sebagai warga jakrta mengharapkan adanya perubahan di daerah Jakarta khususnya kemacetan dalam infrastruktur. Saya sebagai warga Jakarta yang selalu berlalu lalang di jalan Jakarta tepatnya jakarta utara selalu menghadazzgzzzgggpi kemacetan, kanan kiri depan belakang yang saya lihat hanyalah container dan truk . Dengan adanya pemilihan calon gubernur baru, saya berharap kandidat dapat amanah untuk memperbaiki kota Jakarta khususnya dalam mengatasi segala permasalahan di Ibu Kota dan dapat bekerja sesuai yang dengan visi misi untuk perubahan Jakarta.

Saya berharap yang melanjutkan untuk menjadi nomer 1 di Jakarta yaitu bapak Basuki Cahya Purnama ( Ahok ) karna saya melihat segi karaketernya yang tegas beliau dapat memerintahkan pekerja untuk mengatasi sungai-sungai yang penuh sampah hingga bersih seperti di cempaka putih dan manga dua dan juga terungkap kasus kabel-kabel sabotase yang ada di jalan medan merdeka Jakarta pusat. Walaupun usaha nya masih belum bisa mangatasi banjirnya Jakarta, setidaknya bapak Ahok sudah berusaha keras untuk Jakarta.

Saya berharap setelah terpilihnya bapak Ahok, warga Jakarta akan lebih menghargai, menghormati apa yang beliau kerjakan untuk Jakarta dan tidak berfikir beliau bukan Muslim dan beliau kafir karna selagi niatnya bagus dan baik untuk Jakarta kita harus mendukung apa yang beliau kerjakan. Saya hanya bisa berharap bahwa warga Jakarta dapat berfikir bahwa Indonesia menganut bhineka tunggal ika yang berbeda-beda tetapi tetap satu.
