19 Nov 2005 Rainbow in Donesia92225 Pelangi Mejikuhibiniu Sebuah negara di khatulistiwa, anak-anak TK seringkali menyebut negara tersebut dengan nama Endonesia, tapi jika kamu lihat di peta, aku rasa kamu tidak akan menemukan nama itu, karena negara tersebut lebih umum disebut dengan Indonesia. Indonesia berada di wilayah tropis, artinya negara tersebut hanya memiliki dua musim, yaitu musim kemarau dan musim hujan, tidak ada musim semi, musim panas, musim gugur maupun musim dingin. Walaupun tidak ada musim dingin, tapi jauh di ujung negara tersebut, tepatnya di puncak gunung Jayawijaya, konon katanya di sana masih dapat ditemukan salju. Tapi bukan itu yang hendak dibahas di sini. A country in the equator, kindergarten kids usually called the country with the name Endonesia, but if you look for it on the map, I think you will not get it, because the country is commonly called Indonesia. Indonesia located in tropical area, it means that the country only has two season, that is sunny season and rainy season, there are no spring, summer, autumn, or winter. Althouth there are no winter, but far at the side of the country, more exactly on top of Jayawijaya mountain, it is said that there people can still see snow. But, that's not what we are going to discuss here. Seperti halnya salju, hujan turun dari langit. Musim hujan datang karena angin yang entah mengapa disebut El Nino tiba. Ketika musim hujan tiba, curah hujan relatif lebih tinggi daripada musim kemarau. Ketika hujan turun dari langit, anak-anak kecil senang sekali bermain dengan air hujan, mereka tidak tahu bahwa air hujan dapat mengandung asam dan menyebabkan suatu penyakit yang disebut "masuk angin", tapi mereka tahu bahwa setelah hujan turun biasanya muncul pelangi. Like snow, rain falls from the sky. Winter comes because wind that I-don't-know-why is called El Nino comes. When rain season comes, the rainfall rate is relatively higher than the rainfall rate during sunny season. When rain falls from the sky, small kids like to play with rain water, they do not know that rain water may contain acid and it may cause a sickness that is called "wind got in", but they know that after the rain stops, rainbow usually appears. Pelangi, seperti yang biasa kita lihat, punya banyaaak warna. Entah mengapa anak-anak TK di negara tersebut seringkali dibekali pengetahuan bahwa pelangi mengandung warna, yang bila disebut dengan cepat berbunyi, mejikuhibiniu (Me-Ji-Ku-Hi-Bi-Ni-U). Rainbow, as we usually see, has maaany colours. I don't know why kindergarten kids in the country usually are given a knowledge that the rainbow consists of colours, which if it is said quickly sounds like mejikuhibiniu (Me-Ji-Ku-Hi-Bi-Ni-U). mejikuhibiniu singkatan dari Me = MErah = Red = FF0000 _ Ji = JIngga = Orange = FF9900 _ Ku = KUning = Yellow = FFFF00 _ Hi = HIjau = Green = 00FF00 _ Bi = BIru = Blue = 0000FF _ Ni = NIla = Pink = FF00FF _ U = Ungu = Purple = 990099 _ Apakah ada sesuatu yang tertinggal? Aku rasa YA, mana warna-warna yang lain? Do you think there are something missing? I think there are, where are the other colors? Hanya ingin memberitahu itu saja, dan "itu" pun dari sudut pandangku, "Penting ga sich?" Just want to tell you that, and that also comes from my point of view, "Is that important?"
