In the Vocational High School 2 Buduran has opening many competence program, such as Multimedia, Entrepreneur, Accounting, Office Administration, Banking Department. I am one of student in Vocational High School 2 Buduran, and I was in multimedia majors. Why I choose multimedia majors? Because, multimedia is one of department which many people have looking for it. And also with multimedia, may be it’s become easier if I want looking for a job, because now days not less people who need person in IT majors. With multimedia we can be a success person, get a good jobs and more easily. But a successfully wouldn’t be get, if with no hard work and hard try.

B. INTERNET
The internet was a network that almost we need in daily activity because of his many of benefit, as for looking for the news, information, friend, work, business, etc. Possibly for some people internet was really needed in their life but for me as a student not too dependent yet to internet because it isn’t too much needed. I used the internet only when I was needed, and also looked for information that possibly our teacher did not know it well. So we used the internet not only to play but also to study. My favorite site when opening the internet was Google, because from Google I could find anything what I needed or I want to know. Many profit used the internet like I has been mentioned it above. Like browsing at Google, my favorite site, I could look for something that was useful to increase my knowledge from various different sources.
One of function of internet is as the communication aspect, the provider of information and promotion facilities. The internet could connect us with various sides in various locations all over the world. And the internet also could become bad factor to damaging moral, as opening the film or the pornographic picture, condemned the other person, damaged the good reputation of the other person, make the story that was not good, and etc. So many people become interpreted it as a warehouse moral damage. But it came back to the user of internet, how they used it. If they used it in positive way so what they get also positive one and in the other hand. There was aphorism saying that… “what was you burry that was you get”.
As I know, today many schools used WIFI. So, many students too who used the internet in school area. But there are many schools too that didn’t use internet facilities yet for their student or still less of facilities to the existence of the internet in school. According to my opinion, things like this must be getting an advanced action. Because the student needs learning too, if facility not encouraged enough, the student can be blocked to getting information and knowledge. My suggestion is, to increase computer facility and to improve computer network.

C. ENGLISH
In the international community, English was one of the keys to success moreover in the globalization era as this time. English become one of key to success because English was an intermediary to communicate with the outside world and also as the international language. Not surprised if now we often encountered with everything that smelled of English, possibly that as one of the methods for us to know the outside world (international) and it’s make we are ready if at one time we really communicated with people from the other Country. Because if we were not ready with the globalization then we would “disappear” cross over by development of period.
Not everyone could understand and speak English, possibly was caused that English had many tenses that must be used in different time. It’s happened also with me when studying English. I often confused if listening the explanation about a form of English. That was possibly caused by anyone had the different method to delivered to other people, so it’s make me difficult to understood. For example, the teacher A explained with Indonesian whereas the teacher B explained with English. However, there is also the pleasure one when learning to speak English. I was very happy to listen to the person who was speaking English with enjoy. And then that person translated it into Indonesia so I become understood what was discussed.
Many students who were afraid to making the mistake when studying English, same happened to me. I was often afraid to studying English, because I did not understand fully that was meant by my teacher and after that I was afraid to asking again. Moreover, it’s also caused too many tenses that must be used in different time, so I was confused to apply it. Nevertheless I continued to try to study English so I have got a course, or ask for helped to the person that was talk English to translate it in Indonesian. And I hoped if explained not only once or twice, but if may be until I know and understood.

Gerunds and Infinitives
Gerunds and infinitives are forms of verbs that act like nouns. They can follow adjectives and other verbs. Gerunds can also follow prepositions.
A gerund (often known as an -ing word) is a noun formed from a verb by adding -ing. Not all words formed with -ing are gerunds.
An infinitive is to + the verb.
When a verb follows a verb it either takes the gerund or infinitive form.
Some verbs can take either the gerund or the infinitive with no loss of meaning.
For example:
• With the verb start - "It started to rain." or "It started raining." Both sentences have the same meaning.
Sometimes the use of the gerund or infinitive changes the meaning of the sentence.
For example:
• With the verb remember - "I remembered to do my homework". or "I remembered doing my homework."
In the first sentence (I remembered to do my homework), the person speaking remembered they had some homework first and then carried out the action and did it. In the second sentence (I remembered doing my homework.), the person speaking carried out the action (their homework) first and then remembered doing it.
Other verbs only take one or the other, unfortunately there is no rule as to which form the verb takes. The same is true when the verb follows an adjective.












Examples:
Write sentences from the given words!

1. Finish + eat dinner
2. Mention + go to a concert
3. Avold + answer my qution
4. Enjoy + watch tv
5. Enjoy + listen to music

ANSWER:
1. I finish eating dinner with you
2. I mention going to concert today
3. I avord answering my question
4. I enjoy watching tv every after study
