Assignment three -- Part 1

Birthday

Birthday is the name given to the date of the anniversary of the day of a person's birth. People in many cultures celebrate this anniversary. In some languages, the word for birthday literally translates as "anniversary". Birthdays are traditionally marked by celebrations including a birthday party or, in some particular cases, a rite of transition.

Traditions

In addition to parties, it is common for people to receive gifts on their birthdays or surprise parties. However, sometimes it is expected of the person celebrating their birthday to treat their party guests instead; this varies depending on the local culture and may involve party gifts or other gestures

Birthday cake

The birthday cake is traditionally highly decorated, and typically covered with lit candles when presented, the number of candles signifying the age of the celebrant. The person whose birthday it is may make a silent wish and then blow out the candles. After that, the person can open their presents. It is also common for the person celebrating their birthday to cut the initial piece of the cake as a newlywed couple might with a wedding cake.

Birthday cakes date back as far as the Middle Ages when the English would conceal symbolic items such as gold coins, rings and thimbles inside their cakes.[citation needed] Each item was associated with a prediction. For example, a person finding a gold coin in a birthday cake would supposedly become wealthy; a person discovering a thimble would never marry.

Sometimes special candles are substituted for the many individual candles in the shape of a numeral. For example, on the fifth birthday, there may be one candle on the cake in the shape of the numeral five, and on the fiftieth birthday there may be two candles on the cake, one in the shape of the numeral five followed by the other in the shape of the number zero.

Religion

In Islam, some Sunni and Shia Muslim scholars oppose birthdays, but some allow celebration of the birthday of the prophet Muhammad. However, it is important to note there is no basis for this exception either, that is, no evidence in the Quran or Hadith.

So in indonesia, celebration of birthday just to give cake and speech to person's. Becuase people in indonesia most of islam, also culture in indonesia average is islami.

Assignment two -- Part 1

General Idea of My Calendar

Hellow...This is my second assignment for computer graphics 1 subject. For my second assignment, I have to create a calendar based on a festive season like Christmas, Chinese New Year, Hari Raya, Deepavali and so on. In other words, I have to create a calendar based on the month the festival fall into. So, i will chose Halloween and that season will be in 31 October.

Then, our lecturer had list down a number of calendar that we have to choose as a reference for us to create a new calendar. I must choose one design for one month only.


This is a number of calendar that we have to choose(only one). And I have decided to choose this calendar/design as a main reference.

I need to follow this design as well as the layout. I can change the objects but the positioning as well as the layout must remain the same.

After this, as usual, I need to post my assignment. Then, I will draw it using Adobe Illustrator CS3 . Before that, I must write a description and statement about Halloween.


A statment about Halloween

Halloween is a a holiday of costumes, pumpkins, witches, ghosts, haunted houses and trick-or-treating. The history of Halloween can be traced back 2,000 years. It was during these ancient times in Europe that the Celts celebrated the beginning of winter on the evening of October 31st. November 1st was the first day of their new year and it also marked the first day of winter. They believed that death was strongly linked to the long and bitter winter. The Celts thought that during the winter the dead and the living existed simultaneously because it was on this day that the dead roamed the earth. Samhain was the name they gave to their celebration of the dead on the evening of October 31st.

However, when Christians began to gain authority in the 800s, the history of Halloween was forever changed; November 1st became known as All Saints Day or All-Hallows. It is believed that the Christians slightly altered the holiday into a church related celebration, honoring deceased saints. Not unlike Celtic tradition though, the Christians too honored the dead on this day. The evening of October 31st soon became known as All-Hallows Eve and was eventually changed to Halloween.

So, i think this celebrate is funny and this celebrate is rare.
