Leonardo

Holla...
First saturday of this year. Gile, dah seminggu aja ya.
Orang pinter tu banyak ya. Jenius, brilian, dan sebangsanya lah. Apalagi jaman dulu, banyak penemu2. Favoritku nomor 1 pastinya Thomas Alva Edison. Terimakasih tak terhingga kepada Mr.Edison yang telah menemukan bohlam, Anda telah menerangi bumi ini. Dan yang lainnya kaya Walt Disney, Albert Einstein (walopun aq sama skali ga ngerti E = mc2 itu apaan xixixi...), Wright brothers, Da Vinci, etc.
Speaking about Da Vinci, well aq tau dy hebat, ilmuwan, pelukis juga dsb. Dulu punya komiknya juga. Nah dasar geblek, apa karena masih kecil ya, jadi dulu aq ga pernah benar2 ngeh sm apa yang dia lalukan untuk peradaban ini. Buatku dia hebat, seperti jenius2 lainnya. That's it. Until I found  interesting facts about him in my brother's old-english-textbook. Here it is...

Leonardo Da Vinci (1452-1519) was an incredible man. He worked as an architect, artist, mathematician and scientist. He also worked as a military engineer and was a good musician. When he was child, Leonardo liked school but he hated Latin. In 1466, Leonardo's family moved to Florence and he finished school. In 1482, he moved to Milan and started to work for the Duke of Milan. He designed many buildings for the Duke. He also studied Mathematics. His drawing for Anatomy of a Man showed him to be a great biologist. In 1502, he returned to Florence and painted the Mona Lisa. He carried this painting with him when he travelled. From 1514 to 1516, he lived in Rome and continued his scientific experiments. He died in France in 1519.

Oh, here is another facts:

He wrote from right to left - we needed a mirror to read his handwriting.
He could write one sentence with hid right hand and a different sentence with his left hand. At the same time.
He invented scissors.
He drew architect's plans but never built a building.
He had many talents. He made models and in his notebooks there were plans for a tank, a helicopter, and a submarine.
His scientific observations were a hundred years before his time.


Wow wow wow....aq cuma bisa mangap waktu pertama kali baca fakta ini. Aq tau dia jenius. Tapi aq bener2 baru tau kalo dia bisa melakukan banyak hal. Leonardo Da Vinci, may you rest in peace.
