indoglish
Because I use a lot of Indo on this mostly English site, here's some lingo for the uninitiated:
abang=big brother
ade/adek=younger sibling (gender neutral)
bete/bt=a negative emotion, usually irritation or a bad mood
cewe/ce=slang for girls
cowo/co=slang for boys
ja'im (jaga imej/image)=guarding your social image
kakak (pronounced kaka')=older sibling (gender neutral, or female, depending)
--kak (ka')=honorific for older siblings or 'sempai'
kuliah/kul=college
gwe (sometimes gw, gue)=slang for I or me
SD=elementary school
SK (sometimes es-ka; setia kawan): solidarity, loyalty (among friends)
skul=school
SMA=high school
SMP=middle school
TK=kindergarten
wa=slang for I, me (same as 'gwe')
what are all those 2s? this is shorthand for a 'kata ulang'
or repeated word. ngakak2 is read ngakak-ngakak= laughing very hard
any words that need to be added?

Roof leaking more. ><'
But hey, I could be cryin' about the snow. Which is, actually, melting slowly away now.
Right into my kitchen. T.T
Tatsukete!!!
Because the leak is ( i think) caused by ice damns (ice buildup on the roof causing water to pool and leak into house) I tried to knock some ice down. ><' Not only was it unsuccesful--damn ice T.T--but when I tried to pry a sheet of it up, roof tiles came up with it.
B: *innocent look; puts tiles and ice back* dum dum dum . . . *wanders innocently away*

crap
It occurs to me that I should have started looking around for transfer info ages ago. Before christmas. Or before november, really.
I am muy screwed.
I can't even find a university website I understand, let alone one that looks like I'd want to go to it for at least the next two years. T.T
Like, what the hell is "art practice"? Thats a faculty? ><' Holy hell, man. Does that mean art & design? *squints at univ web site* It does say things like 'life drawing' 'painting' etc. Heh.
Double Heh, even.
I'd prefer a university with many faculties to an art school, if only because I'd really like to go to one of those big schools with old buildings. And ivy would be a bonus. XD But seriously, I'd like place not overrun and crawling with art students. Just because.
I'll never find a school. >< Argh.'>
B: (>^^)>
B: i have ur kirby. mwahahah~ he is muh hostage

muy crap
RingWorld reports that Naomi Watts will receive a rumored $15 million to return in "The Ring 2," the sequel to last year's successful American remake of "Ringu."
The site reports that the Dreamworks sequel will not have anything to do with any of the Japanese sequels that were made. Dreamworks has plans to release "The Ring 2" in October 2004.
--from: cinema confidential's ring2 thing
--
Yepper. you read right. Nothing to do with the japanese version. ><;
Gawd, the world is cruel.
And you know, the Japanese version was called 'the ring' when it was sold in jak 2-3 years ago. Methinks 'ringu' be merely katakana syllabic spelling, american smucks.
Myeh. So. Angry.

lotr--the return of the king (& spoilers!)
Finally saw it yesterday, and can I start by saying my heart is broken?
Aa~h, I can't believe it's finally over. ^^ I've been watching this movie for a year and a half, you know? Saw the first in Jakarta with UTchan, the second with my Mom and the last with Jkun and Ototou.
*siiiiiiii~gh*
But on the way home last night, Jkun's car stalled, and caught fire, and the mile long trudge to the nearest gas station (on slippery roads in sneakers, because we're dumb) erased the stars from me eyes for a bit.
Until we got back to my car and ototou started talking about it. ^^; Yeah, Legolas is way cool. Except for that blue shirt he was wearing at Aragorn's coronation at Minath Tirith. what was that? It looked like a baju kokoh of some sort. Like a Javanese groom. ^^ Seriously.
ROTK didn't seems as good as the other two, to me. It's true, though I'm reluctant to admit it. XD Maybe it's because it's the end and I hate endings with a passion. Too many damn goodbyes in that movie, and I hate them, too, so really, theres not much left for me too kyaa about but the pep-talk speeches and ghostly army and Legolas's killing the elephant thing, and the damn utter coolness of him, Aragorn and Gimli. They're just bad-ass and swashbuckling cool, and I wish they'd cut out just a few of the multitude of Frodo-looking-anguished closeups to put in a bit more of them three.
Also, there were parts I would have liked explained more. Like the eagles at the end. Now, I haven't read all the books--barely got into the fellowship before the movies came out and I decided I'd rather watch, then read--but I have the feeling that those birds didn't just show up on the wake of that moth thing. One would like a bit of explanation about why they came, and how they knew when and where to go, and did Gandalf call them, ang things like that. You feel theres definitely some Gimli and Legolas bits that were cut out, and that's a shame, because their bickering is far more fun that Frodo looking weepy over his shoulder.
And yeah, 'totou-san, the cities needed outskirts instead of ending abrubtly at the city walls and becoming plains, but that didn't really bother me so much as the shock of the ending. The ending wasn't what I'd expected. From all the lotr ranting and misqouting my dad did while we were growing up, I had always been under the impression that Gollum somehow redeemed himself at the end. He didn't. And neither did Aragorn redeem his failed ancestor, because he never laid hands on the ring at all save for a bit during the Fellowship, and Frodo himself was corrupted at the end and wanted to keep it. The thing fell into the Fires of Mordor by chance, and isn't that the damnest thing? One can't help but wonder what Tolkien was thinking.
But yeah, the ending. It seemed weird. Everything was so normal after the hobbits came home. Like nothign had ever happened, and it bugged me. Maybe I'm strange, but it bothered me that they went home at all, that Sam married Rosie and had little hobbits. How does one go home to a place like hobbiton after that? How can one not end up like Bilbo, always lusting after another journey, obsessing over what else might be out there? Because in the end there was nothing to say the whole thing had ever happened but that leather bound volume that Frodo gave to Sam, and it all seemed so lonely and silent and final. And then Gandalf, telling the hobbits that their fellowship had come to an end . . . .
I said I hate endings and goodbyes, didn't I? And if that wasn't both all wrapped up in one . . . .
I can honestly say, I've never loved a movie the way I loved this trilogy. Having it end is like missing people. I imagine that after Sam came home, picked up his children and closed his door behind him, he did pretty much what I did, upon finally reaching home, and that was to put on water and sit down and stare at the ceiling, and feel lonesome and think, well, that's that, it's over. There is no more. There really is no more.

You're beautiful. Maybe too beautiful. But, this group of stereotypes also seems to always have some sort of amazing ability. So, you're all that and talent, too, huh? Such a deadly package wrapped in such pretty paper People often underestimate you when they first see you. Big mistake. You have a lot of power packed away inside that fae-like body of yours. Those who are your allies are blessed, those who are your enemies are...well...screwed (and not in the good sense).

on page 112 of your book . . . .
Peh. No bio book as yet for my online course. Most questions start like that *point at subject line* and it's due today. Heh. -.- And here I was thinking I could just bs my way through this the way I bs most other subjects.
Did nothing this weekend but hang about, think about doing homework and laundry (no clean socks left T.T) and watchign videos. I'm still thinking about homework and laundry, but neither will likely get done tonight. XD My English stuff if so overdue. ^^v
Did however, watch the Returner and Treasure Planet. Both good. Treasure Planet way better, expecially the song sequence. Yeah, I'm a sucker for them Disney song sequences. And those solar sails. I want one for my car. ^^;
Definite Tail Spin vibe coming off Jim's solar surf board thing at the beggining, though. I want one of them to hook up to my car, too. XD *chevy sputters and dies*

grrr~
I'm sick and everyone's pissing me off. Or maybe, I'm pissed off because I'm sick and grouchy. ^^ Peh.
No, I don't have my psych book, either, but as long the prof spends each class readign from the text, do I really need to spend money on it? Gar~ Annoyance grows. Do not need to have lack of textbook pointed out in class. Do not need or want to look on with someone. Want to sleep. Let me die here in peace, damn it! *cough cough*
Further kvetching:
Ototou does nothing but leave messes around the house, open doors that are meant to stay closed, and eat all the cookies.
God. So. Frikkin. Pissed.
Why did the folks send him out here to live with me? ><' Such a pain.
The house is a mess. My room is one big laundry heap. I had a desk in here somewhere, didn't I? As of today, I have no clean underwear (or socks). Must do laundry.Gah! Still haven't done that ovedue english.
Theres no food either, except food I'd have to cook, becaues hell would freeze over before Ototou figured out the kitchen. ><' He can't even make himself indomie. It's pathetic, and way annoying. If anyonewant an incompetent fool, feel free. I'll set him on the curb next garbage day.
Peh. Blogging does nothign to make me feel better. I've just typed myself into a fury.
Goddamn, I want to home and make coffee and mope and read my book and sleep in front of the Tv. If anyone want to come and make me soup, that would be fine too. ^.~*

back to gripe
. . . and then I ruined two out of four silk screen prints. T.T No more gloating over near-perfect registration, I guess.
Am muy pissed. Should have known better than to attempt this when I'm I'm seeing double anyway, and sniveling to boot. Plus my design really, really relied on fine line and the registration being, and staying, as close to perfect as humanly possible.
Apparently, Bart-ly possibly is another level altogether, and it includes being off-registered by nearly half a cm. Damn wobbly frame clampy thing. Why didn't I double, triple check? T.T Crap crap crap. Now people who warned me it's mess up will gloat and I-told-you-so me all week.
And yeah I'm pretty sure we only have to hand in one print, but I have like 6-7 colors to go and thats a lot of room for messing up, seeing as I only have two good prints to work on now.
T.T
Oh, and the right front tire of my car is kind flatish. ^^ Hope thats not dangerous or anything. Peh.
But hey, at least my roof's stopped dripping for the moment. Huzzah!!!

painter whatsis?
During phostoshop class, just before the proff declared he was too sick to teach, but after he'd yelled at me for mucking with images while he was talking (too much clicking ^^; ) Jkun mentioned some program called painter. Apparently so much better than photoshop. Now LadyGackt has a painter-ed pic up. (tis muy pretty)
I wonder about these signs. -.- I wonder why better progs come out just as I'm learnin me some photoshop.
And just to prove the universe is against me:
Cchan duped me into thinking she'd been in psych hospital. -.- Hey. if you knew her, you'd believe it, too.
Cchan: I can't believe you believed me. No one ever believes me. That's the first time I've ever fooled anyone.
Jkun: Yeah, but then, you're dealing with the lowest rung on The Ladder of Getting Things.
And then I smacked myself in the face getting into my car.
And I'm still kinda sick.
But the other two prints came out good, except that one of the wrecked ones was my best print (up till the point I wrecked it). ^^; So this positive point cancels itself out and results in the world still being pretty against me. XD
Thank god we have vacation the rest of this week. Huzzah! Winter break!!

banting-banting, ah . . .
gomen, to write this, it must be in:
[indomode]
Gw baru sampe rumah an tiba2 angin di luar jadi kenceng. ^^ Untung gwe ngga lama2 di jalan. Sebenernya sih pengennya jalan dari pagi, tapi dasar gwe, maen internet sampe malem . . . eh, sampe pagi kali! Akhirnya bangun udah jam 12 siang lewat and mandi udah jam 3-an.
Tapi kalopun gwe bangun pagi pun percuma banget. Kantor yg gwe cari ngga tau letaknya dimana. Tadi gwe bolak and balik an ngga ketemu juga. ^^ Kata nyokap gwe sih di Main Street githu, tapi ko plakatnya ga ada sih? Duh, gwe kan mau bayar2 nih. Ampun deh.
Sekali lagi, ban mobil gwe lagi kurang udara an gwe kaga tau cara ngisinya. Gimana mau tau, ngga ada yg pernah ajarin gwe tenteng mobil2an. Nyokap gwe sih suruh bawa ke bengkel tapi gwe kan malu banget, segitu aja mesti minta tolong yg pro. Kok ngga ada yg pernah ajarin gwe apa2 yg berguna sih? Huh.
Ya . . . akhirnya gwe sebel banget karna ade gwe yg tinggal ama gwe, naik mobil ama gwe, an dianter2 gwe maen lepas tangan, ngga mau ambil bagian hal2 yg berhubungan ama mobil an rumah. Akhirnya sampe rumah gwe langsung banting dompet ade gwe ditinggal ama dia gitu aja ngegelantung dari lobang kunci pintu depan. Abis, kunci dia dipasang di dompet sih, an dengan seenaknya ngga mikirin lobang kunci yg emang udah aga ngga bener, suka keras kalo diputer.
Soalnya ade gwe manja banget. Udah kaya anak raja aja. pernah gwe masuk kamar depan, dia lagi duduk, masang cdman kenceng2 sampe gwe mesti teriak2 baru kedengeran. Pintu depan dibiarin kebuka. Pas gwe nanya alasannya, kata dia ngga ada, ngga ditutup aja. Emang dia sanka murah apa, manasin rumah di musin gini? Kalo gwe nurunin suhu pemanas, dia juga yg complain, tapi gas dibuang2 karna males nutup pintu aja. ><'
Piring yg tugas dia buat nyuciin . . . udah lama ngga dicuci. Dicuci pun ngga pernah semua. Mobil lagi rusak . . . dia ngga peduli, malah cuma ngomong kalo dia ngga tau mesin yg buat mompa ban, trus ninggalin tuh tugas buat gwe sendiri. Atap bocor . . . dia bilang bakal dia yg nelpon tukangnya, tapi ngga pernah terjadi. Tadi pagi mesti pergi bayar2, gwe udah ngomong dari hari sebelumnya, tapi dia nunggu buat diingetin lagi, and engga nunjukin tanda2 kalo dia puduli ama hal yg mesti kita bayar (padahal penting banget), bangun tidur malah langsung maen internet. Udah berankatnya dah siang banget, nyuruh dia siap2 sumpah cape (an lama) banget.
Mesti diapain sih orang kaya gini? Yg jelas sih gwe dah kesel. Gwe ngaku aja gwe bukan orng yg sabar2an, tapi orang sabar pun pasti bete ama yg kaya ade gwe. Ngga pernah mikirin apa2 kecuali kepentingan lansung dia sendiri.
Ngga enak sih complain tentang ade gwe sendiri di umum gini, tapi anggep aja pelampiasan. Gwe ngga bisa ber-uneg2 dimana2 lagi. Anggep aja gwe orang yg lagi setress, ngga usah diaggep serious. Tapi sumpah, gwe pengen kabur, ninggalin ade gwe ama semua hal yg selama ini dibiarin gwe yg kerjain. Biar tau rasa.
Kalo itu ngga bisa, gwe pengen banting2 lagi, sampe cape. XD

fandom stuff. watch me rant
Here's an entry thats not a quiz. XD If I offend you: Hah!! Take it to the comments box, we'll have a flame war. Huzzah!!! XP
In the order they occur to me:
1. Tenipuri. No reason. Just . . . why? Anyway, I haven't seen it, but considering tennis is lobbing a wee lil' yellow-green ball back and forth, I'm getting definite Born to Cook vibes off it. Oh, yeah. You know what I mean. -.-'
2. Mailing List Sempai. You know who you are. You drive me frikkin' nuts. Theres some on lists I've been on longer than and witnessed the waltzing in and seniorizing. Self-seniorization. ><' MLSs answer almost every post, because they Know The Answer. They have the True Charachter of every character down pat. Sometimes, they haven't even seen the series. Often, they come in on the end of the bandwagon. They're the ones that laboriously tweak fics and expect others to also. I mean, I tweak fics, but sometimes . . . dude, relax. Mostly, it's tone. They sound like your middle school english teacher patting you on the back for correctly describing Iago. They come up with C&Cs like "a real feeling of the depth of love they have for each other . . ." Gimme a break, ok? Most of you write the most off-base AUs on the goddamn planet. Like you know the twoo depth of feewings chas have for each other. Argh! You screwed over my freakin fandom and everyone just basks in the light of your freakin' patronising approval, because you waltz in and act like you know everything simply because you can put a decent sentance together.
Grar! My mongrel pidgin english mocks you!
3. AUs. Get with the damn canon or get out, dammit. We don't need WK guys out west. Want a western? Try Saiyuki, at least you'd be wrecking it less.
4. What the hell is this thing with girls and vampires? I bet you anything that any fandom with more than five ficcers writing in it has at least one vampire fic. Why? Why?
5. "I'm an uke watch me snivel" Do you need an explanation? I like charachters, especially ukes, to be tough enough so that if something pushes them to rage or tears it actually matters. Canonically tough charachters shouldn't weep over being given a box of chocolates. Canonically tough charachters shouldn't be giving each other chocolates to start with.
6. Pet names like 'sweetie' 'honeybuns' 'cuddlebunny' 'kitten' etc. *hurl*
7. Genitalia refered to as food or as if it were food, or sex as if it were a meal. ><' Kinda gross, man. Could put ya off food and sex. This point includes things like "devour his sweet tasting ******" "Couldn't wait to taste--" et cetera. Droolings kinda creepy, too. Some things may physiologically happen, but ain't pretty to talk about.
8. Fangirls (by which I mean 'female fans', so sit down and don't get your knickers in a knot, fangirls) who are mean about slender, pretty guys. It's an asian beauty ideal, and I for one like it better than over exagerated action hero musculature. Haha. Kiss my scrawny asian mongrel ass.
9. People who don't know the difference between feminine and effeminate. Bishounen and biseinen are not necessarily 'effeminate' because they are 'feminine'. Even the MLSs, for all their know-how hot-dogging can't seem to get this one.
10. Gundam Wing. Heero Yuy. It's old, it's done, and that spandex is both dumb and ugly. Get over it.
11. Here's a huge one. US-translated manga. No, I'm not japanese, but somehow I feel like stuff is being stolen from me. ^^; I don't want american kids to have manga access. They're nerdy dorks and they suck. And it makes me not be able to gloat. Dammit!!!
---I am aware of the stupidity of this point. I can't help it. Don't bother complaining.
12. US fans who squee and brag about getting their US version manga early. God, you SUCK!! DNAngel one is just comin' out here, I read it to volume nine over christmas break. Rurouni Kenshin is just being printed . . . it's over everywhere else. Why do you bother bragging, moron? Yeah, you got it before your friend who lives two suburbs over. Big freakin crap, man. The world had it last year. Your waldenbooks sucks. (My Gramed, however, rules ^^v)
13. College age fans who can't keep up with subtitles. ><' *sigh* Why my campus manga club folded--too many idiots. (see point 12)
14. Fans who nitpick, and gather then display trivial factoids about games/anime/manga. "This background is the same one used in the video of the song with the title of the same name of the assistant producer of the anime version". I DONT CARE!!!!!!!!!
15. Ooh, another big peeve! People who put your fic up to poke fun at it, but never C&Ced you or emailed you about your fic being crap or why your fic is crap so you could fix/kill it. Happened to someone I know and I find it extremely unfair.
16. Fans who use their age/last level of education to justify dumb AUs. "I have five kids and a masters, therefore Hamtaro should boink Seifer." Uh-huh.
17. Extreme OOCness. If you don't like the characters, don't use 'em.
18. Smut treated in an unelegant/blatantly pornish manner. Yeah, ruin the characters for the rest of us, you fandom porn goons.
--These aren't general peeves. I could name names, but naming names gets you kicked out of MLs.
Which reminds me:
19. People who hold what you write in blogs against you. I've seen MLs where people brought up others' blog-rants as 'inaproprite behaviour regarding members/mods/ML activity.' Kiss my ass! So long as they don't quote you or divulge specific private info, thats their blog and should be treated with the respect you'd grant a journal lying on the coffee table. If your feelings are hurt, leave. Personally, yeah, it could damage your relationship, but it isn't the MLs business.
--And just for an even number:
20. Songfics. I have a grand total of ONE good songfic and it was Amari's WK, YxA fic 'Breathe'. I thought that one was awesome. Most are crap. Double crap is the song is by a boyband, from the soundtrack of the series, by the band that did the soundtrack for the series, for the sole reason that the band did the soundtrack for the series (ie. any WK song in a WK fic -.-), by savage garden, or, really, anything that any schmo would know the lirics to because the song is uber pop.
And just to be OT: Evanescense is crap and only suitable to be the soundtrack to 'Charmed', which is also crap. They can keep each other company in their pop-goth, pop-wicca, weird-fakey-angst pit of icky pop-culture whoring-out.
Phuuuuuh~ I feel better.
For now. XD

the layout
Wanderlust v2. is a stargate layout.
The idea of the Stargate has always been one I liked: step through and wind up far, far
away. It's Star Wars meets CS. Lewis's wardrobe.
Welcome to wanderlust--v2. out there
