Sepeda, Oh Sepeda

Pertama, akhirnya ngerombak layout karena 1). layout yang sebelumnya memang lebih keren dan rapi tapi ada beberapa hal yg ngga ada, 2). akhirnya ketemu background yang sekarang, dan terakhir 3). Asano Atsuko, novel anda ini sungguh....ajaib.

Kedua,

akhirnya saya naik sepeda lagi setelah kurang lebih setahun lho HUAHAHA.

Ceritanya saya janjian mau karaoke sama temen-temen, tapi berhubung ayah (satu-satunya orang yang bisa nyetir di rumah) lagi camping sama temen-temennya dari komunitas offroad jadinya saya mesti berangkat sendiri. Kebetulan rumah temen cukup deket, 15-20 menitan lah kalo naik sepeda, alhasil saya naik sepeda ke rumah dia dan baru pergi ke tempat karaokenya. Lumayanlah olahraga, sepeda saya sepeda gunung juga jadi bisa di-setting juga kalau butuh challenge (biar sepedanya jadi lebih berat gitu, if you know what I mean).

Nah sebelum pergi ini rupanya....JENG-JENG-JENG, sepedanya rusak! Jelek banget, padahal udah ngesok gitu bawa sepeda keluar rumah tapi tiba-tiba ga bisa digowes karena bagian rantainya ada yang lepas. Fail-nya ngga sampai situ doang, akhirnya saya menginspeksi masalahnya dan rupanya rantainya nyangkut dan ada suatu bagian yang ngehalangin. Saya sama pembantu di rumah akhirnya bawa tang dan obeng dan saya mulai ngutak-ngatik itu sepeda.

Baru satu sekrup yang dicopot sekrup kan ya namanya tiba-tiba ayah saya datang! Kalian tanya--kenapa datang? Rupanya pagi itu dia sedang ngurusin anak anjing yang di rumah sebelum ditinggal camping. Jadi di tengah-tengah 'betulin' sepeda, dia nyamperin saya dan nanya.

Ayah: Kenapa, Sa? Kok belum pergi?

Saya: Sepedanya rusak pak, ini lagi dibetulin.

Ayah: Hah? Rusak kenapa? Mana sini-sini, bapak liat.

Dan saudara-saudara sekalian, dia ketawa dan saya yakin kalau dia suka nge-browse hal yang sama kyk saya dia bakal bilang "FAAAILLL!!". Kenapa?

Ayah: *sambil ngakak* Yaelah, ini kan giginya doang yang ngaco, kenapa pake acara bongkar2 segala?

Saya: .......................

Ayah: *muterin bagian ganti gigi di pegangan sepedanya* Tuh.

Saya: .......................... orz

BEGITU, SAUDARA-SAUDARA. Dengan mudahnya ayah saya mengganti giginya dan JENGJENG, sepedanya langsung betul. Akhirnya sekrup itu dia yang masang balik dan sepeda saya diutak-atik lagi soalnya udah jarang dipake, kayak bel-nya, tempat duduknya dll. Barulah setelah fail parah itu saya pergi ke rumah temen.

Di jalan saya hampir ketabrak motor dua kali dan mobil sekali karena udah lama ga naik dan harus saya akui--itu masih jam 10an jadi saya belum 100% bangun. Tetapi puji syukur kepada tuhan saya sampai di rumah temen dengan selamat dan setelah itu kami pergi ke tempat karaokenya dan kami (saya, temen saya yg saya datengin rumahnya, dan 4 orang lainnya) nyanyi sampai tenggorokan sakit. Karena selesainya agak malem, akhirnya mampir ke Plaza Senayan buat makan dan ngobrol-ngobrol.

Sampai di rumah temen saya lagi itu udah malem, jadi saya bilang ke ortu kalau butuh nginep biar pulangnya besok aja pake sepeda. Dibolehin, dan akhirnya saya bisa lanjut ngobrol lagi sama dia. Besok pagi jam 10an saya pulang ke rumah dan hebatnya jalanan ke rumah JAUH lebih sepi daripada kemaren lsdjas;dlkjf

Setelah kejadian itu mungkin saya akan lebih banyak naik sepeda lagi. Toh udah bener dan saya memang butuh olahraga. Sekalian untuk nunggu buka puasa juga kan bisa tuh o3o Jadi last but not least, buat yg merasa, selamat menunaikan ibadah puasa 8D/

BABY BABY OOH LIEK BABY BABY NOO--/slapped

Yesterday was my friend's birthday and I had loads of fun the whole day with my other friends (One of them was Mino btw. I'll just mention their names with initials in this post). I came home tired but I didn't really care because I've been at home for a very long time now and haven't been hanging out with my friends a lot lately. I admit that hikkikomori life for me is boring when you don't go out every now and then 8|a

First thing was of course, lunch. We had lunch at Pasta de Waraku and honestly it was my first time there and I was actually excited about the fact that I'm finally going to try the infamous spaghetti there lol. I've gotta say that it tasted great but the portion was a bit too small for me (I eat a lot okok). Nevertheless it was great and I absolutely love the teriyaki, it was really soft and easy to chew *u* Then we had hanito and ate it together. After that, the pastry we all have been waiting for, the birthday cake! It was also good, because usually I don't like cream but this was nice.

After that we went karaoke and again, I'm excited to do this because I haven't done this in a long time and I haven't done it with my friends like this. Last time I went was with my online friends so I guess the feeling's different. Believe me it was different, because this time was a lot more fun and crazier! One of my friends D and Y were really good at singing and it was them who mostly raped the mic the whole session. I sang Tik Tok because, uh, idk I just did okay ;; And my voice was horrible 'cause I have no talent in singing orz

Oh, and guess what song we chose first?

...

*points at the title of this post* BABY BY JUSTIN BIEBER BECAUSE WE ARE AWESOME LIKE THAT. The first song was, in my opinion, the craziest one because D was singing while playing around with the lamps so the room looks like there's a disco going on and we were all jumping on the couch. Even I who wasn't actually a party person joined in and abused the camera on my iPod. Y was also standing up and singing like mad and I think we were reaaalllyyyy loud then. We also sang SM*SH's I Heart You for fun but we ended up laughing 40% of the song, so yeah. I also recorded a few songs but akdjsfkl;sd it's too embarassing to post it here .////.

Crazy karaoke session done, next we went to Fun World to play (duhh). The birthday girl and most of my friends played a shooting arcade while me and Mino played DDR. Duuuude you have no idea how I've been dying to play DDR with Mino and DAMN WAS SHE GOOD LDJFA;LSDKJ I collapsed in the middle of the 3rd stage because there were jumps in the end and my feet just couldn't take it anymore orz I was proud of myself for getting more 'marvelous' scores but if it's combos you're talking about, then she wins 8|a

Last thing (for me) was accompanying Y and Ir to Starbucks, but then I had to go because my dad called me orz;; That day was extremely fun and tiring but I hope that we can do it more often!

...and then I have this crazy idea of drawing the karaoke session because it was that great imo. Hand y u no have the skills to do that laksdjflsk;djflsd

Happy Birthday to Me?

lol actually it wasn't today, it was on the 28th of March. So yeah, 'twas my birthday so I'm 15 now but I don't feel like I'm 15. Childish as ever, more of a lazyass than when I was still 14, graaah stupid teenage hormones making my life harder orz Lazyass = loses my will to do pretty much everything and it resulted in bad scores for 2 social studies tests (and if you don't know, I don't like studying about them) /evanesco my lazy mood

I had dinner together with my family and my parents bought me an iPod Touch (yea). Finally, an iPod with a screen and it even allows me to access internet so I don't have to abuse my parents' BlackBerry like I usually do. I haven't forgotten my old iPod though and I will probably keep bringing it in long trips in case the iPod Touch's battery is finished.

Anyhow, thank you to all of you who wished me a happy birthday via twitter, facebook, or wherever you wished me happy birthday from. I zetta love you all and thank you very much for the birthday greetings and for remembering that it was my birthday today 8'D Special thanks to Mino this year for her awesome words and drawings. Dudette, your post brings tears to my eyes /sniff ;A; You're one of the people I didn't expect to be close with but I'm glad I can be your friend and I'm sorry about leaving you so fast like that orz BUT-BUT WE SHALL ALWAYS BE AWESOME FRIENDS OKOK /brofist

Enough galau-ing. I need to really evanesco this lazy mood if I want my scores to get better and my roleplaying mood to come back alsdfjsldkfjs;d

having the time of my life

and I've never felt this way befo-- okok so life has been great ever since I started homeschooling.

Well, technically I don't have school because I study at home. So far I've been studying using the CDs that the school gave me. Inside the CDs are compilations of the topics in each subjects (1 cd = 1 subject = >3 topics), and there are a bunch of them that I need to learn orz I've been looking through the biology CDs, decided to leave physics and math for later. I was surprised and glad that there were no social studies ones because I don't really like that subject, which means I don't have to learn them. yet. I think ;;

imo I like studying like this better than at school. I can study at my own pace, I can choose whether or not to take notes (I take notes though, one of my methods to study and remember stuff is this), and it's not noisy \o/ I can take a break whenever the hell I want, eat or drink while I study, it's not stressing like when we have to go to school. Plus, I have a more disorganized relaxed life now.

Because the teacher comes in the evening (lessons are from 3-5 PM) and all my extra lessons are also in the evening, I can wake up late and no one's gonna complain about that. I can sleep late too, like I always do (and I have to stop because it's bad for my body orz). Homeschool gives me a lot of freetime as well, so I can accomplish loads of stuff like finishing books or practice drawing.

Oh btw yesterday I visited my old school and this happened.

Me: *opens class door slightly, peek until only 1/2 of my face is visible*

Class: *looks at me for a while and shouts, "ASAAAAAAAAAAA"*

I am touched, damn I miss my classmates (only a few of them though ;;) ;A; I was really happy when I met my friends from the X class, especially my friend whom I call 'Moony' (a girl, she also likes HP). I also met Mino but idk we didn't talk a lot. We're all hyper in the internet but we get really quiet when meeting face to face lol. I didn't meet my seniors though. I really wanted to but it was my mistake of not telling people I wanted to visit today.

I'm gonna visit again on Wednesday (tomorrow) and I'm planning to see my seniors this time 8|

bye old school!

As the title said, I'm moving! Setelah 13 tahun dipenjara di sekolah ini, akhirnya saya pindah juga. Pindahnya sih di tengah-tengah tahun tapi gpp lah. Pindah ke mana? Ke rumah! lol maksudnya homeschooling. Akhirnya mimpi saya mau homeschooling dikabulkan oleh tuhan. Saya harus berterima kasih sama temennya ibu saya yang mempromosikan ini ke ortu, dan akhirnya mereka yakin kalau homeschooling itu sebenarnya program yang bagus. Mulainya sih akhir Desember nanti, sedangkan sekolah saya baru masuk lagi Januari 10. Gpp sih secara saya tiap hari kan sebenernya libur, jadi saya dapet free time banyaaak banget.

Rencananya saya pengen jadi lebih produktif kalau ikut homeschooling. Mau belajar gambar, baca lebih banyak buku, dan juga ngelanjutin buku (Stickman Invasion dan ada 1 buku lagi, kumpulan cerita sci-fi absurd). Semoga sih bukunya jadi, karena ngebet juga pengen ceritain SI ke banyak orang. Bukan saya sok ceritanya bagus, tapi pengen aja gitu ceritain ini. Ga sreg kalau cuman temen deket saya doang yang tau plot dan semua trivia-trivia kecil tentang SI.

Last day buat saya agak sedih sih sebenernya karena banyak banget yang ngga masuk. Untungnya temen-temen deket saya dari kelas sebelah pada masuk jadi gpp. Temen deket saya di kelas sampe beliin saya kue ya ampun. Terus guru-guru dan temen ngumpul di kelas waktu pulang sekolah dan ada pesta kecil, bagi-bagiin kue, dan beberapa last words. Besoknya saya farewell party (ga juga sih, lebih kayak hang out ujung-ujungnya orz) bareng temen-temen dari kelas sebelah. Jadi itu adalah kelompok (?) teman-teman saya, yaitu semua cewe di kelas X (saya di kelas Y). Justru menurut saya, tahun ini saya lebih dekat sama mereka daripada temen-temen di kelas sendiri. Jadi singkatnya sih kita makan siang bareng, main di timezone, ke kinokuniya (saya dibeliin fanbook Junjou sama mereka adsafjkl; makasih banget ;A;), terus ngobrol di Red Mango.

Aah I will miss you guys! You girls from X class are the best lot of friends I've ever got. Dan untuk yang angkatan saya juga, nice knowing you guys! Kita udah sekelas selama 4 tahun berturut-turut dan pengalaman bersama kalian itu berarti banget. Melewati suka dan duka bersama (alah), nge-gj bersama, pokoknya saya bersyukur seangkatan sama kalian. Buat junior-junior juga, walaupun I must admit kalian kadang rada ngocol (apalagi yang cowonya), tapi nice knowing you guys dan maaf cuman bisa di kelas bareng kalian selama 1/2 tahun.

Kalau yang senior? Wah ini sih bikin esai juga bisa, bahkan makalah kali. Satu-satu senior saya dibahas perbab, beh. Di LJ saya seriiiing banget ngomongin mereka, betapa beruntungnya saya menjadi junior mereka. Saya bingung kalau disimpulkan di satu paragraf gimana caranya. Yang jelas, mereka itu mengajarkan saya banyak hal, dan mewarnai hari-hari saya sejak saya masuk kelas 8 (eak bahasanya).

Yeah, 'nuff said kayaknya. Udah ga tau lagi mau bilang apa yang singkat selain 'thanks for everything' ;A;

HP DH part 1 (spoiler alert!)

YES I HAVE FINALLY WATCHED IT \o/

Ini pertama kalinya saya nonton premiere dan lumayan excited juga. Dengan senang hati saya mengorbankan 70% uang tabungan THR Idul Fitri saya untuk nonton ini. Buat HP, apa sih yang ga direlakan? /plak

Saya denger katanya kalo premiere kursinya bisa dikebelakangin, lebih empuk, dan lebih gede. Kirain boongan, eh rupanya bener! Haha sumfeh saya sempet rada-rada pas pertama duduk. Sempet kaget juga ada selimut (tapi stok selimut di kursi saya entah kenapa abis, jadi ga bisa pake padahal dingin ;;).

Waktu itu tertunda karena saya denger kabar kalo bakal release tanggal 17. Rupanya kantor libur pas itu dan akhirnya diundur jadi hari Jum'at. Sedangkan saya Jum'at pergi ke luar kota jadi ga bisa nonton. Daan akhirnya saya berhasil juga nih nonton hari ini sama temen deket saya (yang juga sesama Potterhead)!

Filmnya sendiri? Wah, David Yates kali ini ngga mengecewakan saya kyk yang HP6. Keren banget film-nya dan saya berani kasih nilai 10 buat ini film. Dari segi sinematografinya bagus. Saya suka cara mereka ngambil gambar dan angle-nya pas. Komposisinya pun juga bagus (kayak yang pas ada adegan tenda + Harry. aduh itu jadi foto keren tuh), jadi ga bosen diliat. Terus BGMnya juga keren, apalagi di scene akhirnya pas Lord Voldemort mau ngambil Elder Wand-nya.

Saya sempet nangis dikit pas Dobby mati, emang itu emosional banget sampe temen saya yang biasanya ngga peka sama hal begini bilang kayak gitu ;A; Terus adegan si Ron ngehancurin horcrux yang locket-nya juga keren dan seperti yang saya bayangkan. Nah bagusnya nih, mereka memang ngikutin cerita berdasarkan bukunya dan naro scenes2 yang ada di bukunya juga (walau mungkin ada beberapa yang melenceng atau/dan ga ada, tapi ga separah yang HP6 atau HP5. Contohnya yang pas bagian 7 Potters itu si Harry bukannya pergi ke rumahnya Tonks malah langsung ke The Burrow sama Hagrid). Bagian ketemu Bathilda di Godrics Hollow juga rada ngagetin, apalagi pas adegan yang tiba-tiba muncul ular (yang terakhir) 8|. Namun menurut saya yang paling keren dan berkesan itu adalah bagian animasi di cerita Tale of the Three Brothers. Saya suka banget sama character design-nya, apalagi Death. Saya ga ngira banget chara design-nya kayak gitu tapi puas. Design-nya unik, animasi halus, beh keren deh!

So far, this is my fave HP movie (the second is 'The Prisoner of Azkaban'). Bagi fans-fans HP yang ada di sana, kalo ga nonton DH nyesel banget! Keren banget dan saya & temen saya itu ga berhenti bilang 'the movie was epic!' atau sejenisnya tiap 5 menit setelah selesai nonton film-nya. Bahkan kita duduk terus nungguin credits awalnya selesai (orang-orang udah pada pergi semua lmao. lagian kayaknya ga afdol kalo ga liat credits-nya). Pada akhir credits awal itu ada tulisan 'Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows' dan ada simbol Deathly Hallows, terus yang garis Elder Wand itu tiba2 berubah jadi Wand benerannya. Keren deh!

Buruan nonton buat yang belom nonton, dijamin ga bakalan nyesel kok. Saya aja sampe pengen nonton lagi nih asdfjkl;sdjf;l
