Pandemic will go on in 2022 & An Israeli woman refuse to join the army
1st news: WHO official told that we’re not on track, we really need to speed it up or this coronavirus pandemic will go on for a year longer than it needs to. This happen because of the uneven distribution of vaccines across the world. Covax, as the international program set up to ensure all countries could get enough vaccine to cover at least 20% of their population, has not worked out as planned. The vast majority of vaccine doses administered have been in richer countries, Africa especially has been left behind. 2nd news: Most Jewish Israelis do compulsory military service for at least two years. Eventhough many Israelis don’t serve for medical, family, or religious reasons, but it’s unusual to take an ideological stance to oppose their conscription. Every year a small number end up in military prison for refusing to join the army. Shahar Perets is one of them. Some call her a traitor or she don’t care about her people. However, she still decided to refuse to serve in the army for third time because she don’t want to take part in the oppression of millions of people who live in West Bank and Gaza, and her family support her for that.

Hana & I
Hana, my current classmate, and me were just talking about things we do lately but surprisingly we found out that both of us do love reading books eventhough our favorite genre is different. It is nice to know what kind of books she read and I got one recommendation novel named Cinta itu Luka by Eka Kurniawan. I also shared what novel I like and recommended her one. However, it was actually a very short conversation because unfortunately I had to go at that moment.

more than words cover
According to guitarist Bettencourt, “More Than Words” is saying how the phrase “I love you” is overused to the point it no longer means anything. Yet, people still use it and think it will fix things or people think they have shown their love for someone by simply saying that. The main message of the song is that we could prove our love is real through our actions instead of just saying it. That way, our loved one wouldn’t ask if we love them cause they’d already know.

Australian Prime Minister, Scott Morrisson, has announced that Australia will reopen its international borders from November for its own people who has fully vaccinated.

New South Wales, which includes Sydney, is on track to be the first state to cross that 80% threshold in a few weeks time. Mr. Morrison said Australia's mandatory 14 day hotel quarantine, which costs each traveller over 2.000 USD, would be replaced by seven days of home quarantine for vaccinated Australians or permanent residents.

light conversation w/ aisha
Because we haven’t been talking for weeks, I chose to call Aisha, one of my best friend since the third grade, to make sure that she’s good and to know more about her through few questions that I never ask before such as how does she like to be comforted when she’s sad, what was the most difficult good bye in her life, and when was the last time she cried. So, basically we were just having a light conversation in a casual situation since we didn’t have much time to talk to.

little things cover
Meaning of the song “Little Things” by One Direction is that what we may see as insecurities are what makes us who we are and makes us beautiful and perfect. It's telling us that there are people out there that will love us even if we don't. They will love everything about us, including all of our insecurities and that they will always be there for us.

love story cover
A song originally by Taylor Swift that tells us about forbidden love. The lyrics paint the age-old tale of a young, star-crossed couple's trying romance in the face of both their families' disapproval. However, unlike said William Shakespeare’s classic novel “Romeo and Juliet”, Swift didn’t want this particular “love story” to end in tragedy. So she instead made it a happy ending where the man, with the consent of her father, proceeds to humbly request her hand in marriage. Taylor Swift also said that this song is more about a love that’s not convenient and not as comfortable as something else, but it’s something you have to fight for.

Flash Flooding in New York and New Jersey
Hello, my name is Julia Silverita Yasmin from Semarang State University majoring in public health. So, how are you today? I hope you are in good health while listening to this podcast. Now I want to tell you about heartbreaking news that happened in early September 2021. Its Flash Flooding in New York and New Jersey. At least nine people have died after flash flooding and tornadoes hit the north-eastern US, local media report. Some people were trapped in flooded basements of their homes, while one body was found in a vehicle that was swept away. A two-year-old boy was among the victims in New York City. The governors of New York and New Jersey declared a state of emergency. At least 8cm of water had fallen in just one hour in New York's Central Park. As consequence, almost all New York City subway lines have been closed and non-emergency vehicles banned from roads. Many flights and trains out of New York and New Jersey have been suspended. Hundreds of thousands of homes in Louisiana remain without power and New Orleans is under a night-time curfew. New York resident, George Bailey, told the BBC that he heard gurgling in the middle of dinner and the water's coming up out of the shower drain in his bathroom. He also said that he went to check the main water line in the utility room, and by the time he walked back into the living room there was nearly a foot of water. It was incredible how fast it came through. The US National Weather Service declared a flood emergency in New York City, Brooklyn, Queens and parts of Long Island, also issued tornado warnings for parts of Massachusetts and Rhode Island. The extreme weather has been caused by the remnants of Tropical Storm Ida, which caused widespread devastation in southern Louisiana earlier this week. Many factors contribute to flooding, but a warming atmosphere caused by climate change more likely makes extreme rainfall. Laura Trevelyan, an anchor of the BBC's US newscast BBC World News America, said that it occurs because national weather service wasn’t predicting hurricane well, so it turns out predicting flash flooding. It is a sign that with extreme weather, the infrastructure which America hasn’t spent money on many years, is threatened. That’s all for the news and thank you so much for hanging with me till the end. See you next time!
