Kelas Penuh Cinta~!


Yeah. Itulah yang pantas aku bilang pada kelasku yang terakhir di SMPN 1 Malang. Kelas yang kududuki adalah 9B. Kelasnya cukup kompak, dan ramai. Kami juga mengambil tema BREAKERz ketika Pensi, membuat kelas terasa semakin aktif dan terkenal bak seorang Breakers. Gimana gak? Kelas kami terkenal suka kerjasama, bahkan ketika ujian sekolah! ^^ Tapi memang dasarnya pintar-pintar, sehingga guru-guru begitu eman untuk marahin ^^

Kenapa aku bilang kelas penuh cinta? Semenjak awal, banyak pasangan tercipta di kelas ini! Jadi dalam satu kelas, sudah ada 3-4 pasangan yang ada. Yang pertama kalau tidak salah ada Jatz (Jati) sama Dee (Dian). Jatz nembak Dee-an, and diterima dengan sukses! Mereka mesra banget. Lalu, ada pasangan Izza-Bima. Pertamanya Izza emang agak bingung, nrima Bima ato gak. Dan akhirnya, Izza bersedia jadi mempelainya Bima! ^^

Selanjutnya, teman yang kami juluki Bolu (bothak lucu, aslinya Prayuda) menembak Stepz (Stefanni) di Matos, abis nonton bareng. Diterima, deh! Satu pasangan lagi terbentuk! Yah, meskipun ada juga yang sakit ati gara-gara patah hati. Kasihaan... T-T

Penembakan berikutnya adalah Andri ke Lulu. Tapi oleh Lulu ditolak, dan gagal ada pasangan baru di kelas ini. Lalu, baru jadian, ada Kurmat (Aditya) sama Anicha. Mereka dijuluki pasangan oriental di kelas, karena emang sama-sama ada keturunan Cina. Aditya yang selama ini dijuluki homo, akhirnya mbalik normal! Selamat, yah semuanya! ^^

Kelas penuh cinta ini akan segera berakhir Juli, karena memang sudah saatnya untuk keluar dari SMPN 1 dan menjadi murid SMA! Yah, semoga semua langgeng sampe kuliah!

Ehehehe... bagaimana denganku? Sudahlah, aku pengen ngejomblo dulu, ney. Andri, sori yah... ehehehe... ^^;

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket What is my dream? Simply; my novels have success and there are someone wanted to film it. And they’ll use WETA Studio to work the film~! HYaa~! Oops, I think many of you said it wasn’t simply. Yes, WETA Studio is the greatest 3D animation movie-maker who had successfully worked for the 3D animation of “Lord of The Rings”, “Narnia”, and also “Bridge to Therabithia.” It must be so expensive too if we use those studio… Ooh… all of the three were based from novel~! I’m always dream that someone wanted to realize my dream. Haha, so many obstacles on my struggle way. Remember when my computer lost? OMG… all my novels lost there, and never ever could be read by someone except me. Then, my lazy spirit… fuhm, sometimes I feel so well to do it. But sometimes, I feel very lazy, and then I do something else. Ahh~! My way of life still far. I must have really hard struggle to get my aim too; be an architect! Yes, I’m really wanted to go to Architect University then… please pray me, guys…

Malang Kembali 2007 : Unique Event!

At Friday (May 04, 2007) afternoon, I went to the most-unique event on my city. Our city, Malang, have a yearly event called “Malang Kembali” (Malang Go Back) this year. Event like this was started from last year, and the last year government took name “Malang Tempo Doeloe” (Malang in Past) The event was held from May 2 until May 6, 2007, and being hold on Ijen Boulevard, the beautiful roads that remember us with Paris architecture and building. Yes, our government have a program; to make Malang just like past, whereas Malang called “Paris in Java” because the situation just like Paris, ya’ know!? :p This event held from 09.00 until 00.00 >_< (I’m not sure) Along the Ijen street, there are many things that will remember us with past. Just like traditional cart walk along, wooden houses, traditional lights, traditional torches, and so many things. If you go into the area, you’ll feel like in past, about years 1950!! You must wear traditional clothes too. When I went there, I wear my ancient dress!! :D Yes, I got that dress from my mother. It was her old dress, when she still teen like me! The dress was so looks like I’ve been born before 1950… :D I went with my brothers, and my mother. My father won’t to go. So, he stayed at home. Whatever… ^^; After had arrived there, we walking around. Many traditional carts were run along the celebration’s place. There were so many old peoples (even young) wear traditional clothes, just like me. My mother was so happy. She told me that she felt like she back to condition when she was child. All stands and shop were made from wood, bamboo, and so many ancient things. The lamp also use traditional lamp, which we call ublik, torches, or/and kerosene pressure lantern. The stands give us traditional food, toy, and unique merchandise made from traditional materials. My mother bought so many things. She also bought me a traditional candy named glalen. I saw a cute wooden puppet, but it was too expensive. Is someone wanted to buy me one?? :D You also could find old book, photo, England’s old bikes, even antique things. There are also public-free-clinic, play stage, music stage, even monkey’s show… :giggle: Want to go around without too tired? Rent an old bike then! :D I wanted to laugh when I saw a group of teen wear Japanese infantry’s and Netherlands infantry’s old uniform. They ran along the celebration, attitude like real colonizer. Yes, Indonesia even take over by Japanese and also Netherlands in past. So that’s not surprised if some people also cosplay as Japanese old soldier. Those foreign peoples still on Indonesia when 1950, isn’t right? I hope you’re all visiting it, guys. So fun! Actually, my school was so near from that place. I was visited there twice… Haven’t visit it? Go back next year! :D

Angkerbatu: Little Similar with… Silent Hill?



--there will be spoiler here!—

Last Monday, at April 30, 2007, I watched Angkerbatu Movie with my classmates. Yes, we’re so happy when we went there, because Monday was NOMAT/nonton hemat and the movie gives us cut prize. When ordinary days, we must spend Rp20.000,00/audience [about $2.1]. If Monday, we can get just Rp10.000,00[about $1.5]! It’s half prize, right?

We decided to watch Angkerbatu, a horror movie. We got in at 13.15, and ready to watch!

The first scene of the movie took place on the forest somewhere of East Java, the region Angkerbatu. There was Mr. Kim, Korean businessman wanted to build his own golf yard and hotel. So he ordered his fellows to open the forest; cut the forest and flat the forest’s soil. But something unexpected happened! A hurricane came attack him and all his fellows. Poor fellows, they’re all injured, even die when the hurricane came. After all, their corpses lost, to nowhere.

In other place, a girl journalist from Korean Voice TV broadcast named Karana (or Kirana? I forget!) decided to go to Angkerbatu with her partner, Yuda, and also with their driver, Warno. Karana told to Yuda if their friends, Manda and the cameraman were lost after have duty at Angkerbatu to report the build of Mr. Kim’s business area.

They were surprised when they arrive to Angkerbatu town. It was so empty, and untidy! Remember us with SILENT HILL, right?! In road, they’re found Mr. Kim, and a girl. The girl suddenly fainted. Yuda helped her, and took her to hotel. They stayed at hotel, and think what must they do after that. When they stayed at hotel, many ghosts appear, and make audience screamed!! >_<

Karana can’t be saved. That was the elder’s said. The mysterious girl told Yuda, he can save Karana and Manda if he wanted to go to the ghosts’ kingdom. The elder warned them if it’s too dangerous. But Yuda won’t listen, and kept go with the mysterious girl. They go to the hill, whereas there was unused mansion. And…. Guess by your self how’s the ending!! :D

In Silent Hill (PSOne game version), the radio that you borrow will have a noisy sound to sign you there will be a ghost coming at you. If in Angkerbatu, a handy-talkie will sign you, with the same-noisy-voice!!

All right, is Angkerbatu inspired by Silent Hill? Hmm… who knows? But I’m glad the home-movie-production was great to make a ‘ghosts’ image just like real.

Needed HELP!!

Dear friends, My computer was attacked by BRONTOX since one week ago. Those bastards was attack my system too! T-T I talked to my computer’s engineer, and he told me that I must use an antivirus that could not only remove and delete the viruses/infected files, but also could recovery the files. He gave me options; use McAfee or Norton Antivirus. Surely I choose McAfee, because I knew that Norton was too heavy. I’ve got McAfee 8.0 from my friend. He also suggested me to update it. Surely, I’ll update it. Then, I open Google.com and searching for the update. I’m really surprised! It was so hard to find the update! Yes, I was open the official site of McAfee, but then, I just got a pack of McAfee 8.0 and the firewall. Below the pack, there were words; “Please do not install this if you’re now using McAfee virus scan and McAfee firewall.” Sure, I’m using it now. So I don’t install that program. Okay, now, could you find me where I could install the update of McAfee? For note, my computer couldn’t connect to internet. I’m always had surf on Internet CafĂ©. I’m really needs your help. Thanks then… Your sincerely, Lulu ++++++++++++++++ Indonesian+++++++ Aloo temen2 ku… Komputerku kena virus BRONTOX sekitar satu minggu yang lalu. Virus itu sudah menjalar hingga merusak sistem komputerku. Bisa kebayang, kan? Semua sudah diambil alih oleh dia! Aku sudah konsultasi ama konsultan komputerku. Dia bilang kalau aku harus pakai antivirus yang tidak hanya bisa delete virus/infected files, tapi juga harus bisa recovery/memperbaiki file-files itu. Dia ngasih aku pilihan; pakai McAfee atau Norton. Aku ngerti kalau Norton terlalu berat untuk komputerku, makanya aku milih McAfee. Aku udah dapet McAfee 8.0 dari temenku. Dia juga nyuruh aku untuk update dulu. Tentu, aku bakal update itu. Trus, aku mbuka Google.com untuk nyari updatenya. Aku bener-bener kaget! Ternyata susah banget nyari updatenya! Ya, aku sudah mbuka website resminya McAfee, tapi, aku juga dapet satu pak McAfee 8.0 sama firewall. Dibawah pak itu, tertulis; “Jangan install program ini jika anda sekarang sedang menggunakan McAfee virus scan dan McAfee Firewall.” Tentu aku lagi pake itu sekarang, kan? Jadinya ya aku nggak nginstall program itu. Sekarang, kalian bisa ndak bantuin aku nemukan, dimana aku bisa download dan install updatenya McAfee? Untuk catatan, komputerku nggak bisa connect ke internet. Aku selalu ngenet di warnet. Aku bener-bener butuh bantuan kalian. Terima kasih sesudahnya… Dengan hormat, Lulu

Dunia Periklanan & Animasi Indonesia

Kalau dilihat-lihat, sekarang Indonesia sudah termasuk kreatif. Banyak insan muda berbakat yang ikut andil dalam perkembangan tersebut. Salah satunya dapat dilihat dari dunia periklanan Indonesia. Kita ambil contoh poster untuk pertama-tama. Coba lihat di jalan-jalan. Poster bagus tak hanya poster iklan barang atau produk milik perusahaan besar saja. Konsep poster indie yang didesain oleh sekelompok masyarakat saja juga sudah menampakkan dua jempolan dari para pemerhatinya. Iklan di televisi kini tak hanya menggunakan konsep biasa untuk memuaskan kliennya. Jika dulu kita hanya melihat sekedar iklan dengan tema sehari-hari dan berkutat pada satu kilas kejadian saja, kini satu iklan bisa menggabungkan berbagai elemen dan kejadian sehingga muncullah sebuah iklan dengan bobot seni tinggi. Apa hubungannya animasi dengan iklan? Simpel saja, kini iklan juga seringkali menggunakan animasi yang tidak lagi memuakkan mata pemirsanya. Apalagi juga biro iklan sudah pintar mengelola SDM dan menghasilkan iklan dengan animasi baik 2D maupun 3D yang memukau. Sebut saja iklan sebuah produk susu anak yang menggunakan kemampuan animasi 2D ditambah sound-effect yang bagus beberapa waktu yang lalu. Iklan itu tampak seperti film kartun berdurasi pendek yang sangat bagus dan kreatif untuk ukuran orang Indonesia. Ada juga iklan eskrim yang menggunakan animasi 3D yang sangat rapi dan halus, membuat saya teringat dengan film FFVII:Advent Children, yaitu film animasi 3D halus dan hampir-hampir menyerupai nyata. Bayangkan saja grafik maksimal PS2 digabungkan dengan XBOX 360, dan dihiasi gerakan nyata yang tidak kaku sama sekali dipakai dalam sebuah film berdurasi ± 37 menit ini! Lalu, baru-baru ini saya melihat iklan biskuit sandwich yang memakai animasi 2D macan dengan gerakan yang tidak kaku dan monoton berdansa (lebih tepatnya sedang ber-DJ) bersama sekumpulan biskuit 3D yang lucu dan terlihat nyata. Masih banyak contoh lain yang menarik perhatian saya. Dunia biro iklan sekarang benar-benar kreatif! Tak hanya biro iklan, animasi pun melonjak naik dan menguasainya, mendukung aspek publikasi yang membuat para peminat iklan ikut dalam suasana yang ditawarkan oleh iklan. Tak ayal, kadang saya juga tertawa jika melihat satu-dua iklan bernuansa humor yang muncul, atau juga bisa turut hendak menangis melihat iklan bernuansa sendu. Apa yang ada dalam pikiran saya? Yaitu jika Indonesia mau berusaha sedikit lagi, pasti movie 3D seperti Barbie, Jimmy Neutron, bisa tersaingi. Dulu memang pernah ada film 3D berjudul “HOMELAND” buatan Indonesia yang membuat saya terpukau. Sudah bagus, hanya gerakannya para tokohnya agak kaku dan juga sound-effect kurang ditonjolkan. Bumi, karakter utama, saya lihat gerakan tangannya kurang luwes sewaktu ia melambai (di scene terakhir, ketika ia mengucapkan selamat tinggal) “Huh?” pikir saya saat itu, “tokohnya gak punya sendi siku, ya? Kok tangannya kayak gitu?” Kalau Indonesia mau ‘bondo,’ mengumpulkan para manusia-manusia kreatif itu, dan bermodal kemauan keras, maka tak usah heran jika akan tercipta sebuah film animasi 3D halus yang akan merajai dunia film animasi Indonesia, melebihi Homeland! Jangan mau kalah dengan Thailand yang para insan mudanya sudah memproduksi film animasi kartun halus dengan efek 3D! Sama-sama rumpun bangsa mata hitam-tubuh kecil-kulit coklat, tapi kok lebih maju mereka? China pada tahun 1999 sudah bisa mengandalkan biro iklan mereka dengan animasi di internet. Mereka sudah menggunakan animasi Flash, dan juga animasi 3D yang cukup halus untuk periklanan. Sementara kalau dilihat, Indonesia masih baru menapaki jenjang tersebut kurang lebih tahun 2005-2006. Hayo, kebayang, gak, gimana terpuruknya tanah air kita?? Solusi >>>> Kita, sebagai insan muda, harus bisa mengambangkan kreatifitas kita masing-masing. Setiap manusia punya apa-apa yang bisa mereka sumbangkan pada tiap kesempatan, dan kita wajib menghargai apa yang orang lain persembahkan pada kita. Trus, pupuklah sifat rajin! Bayangkan aja, adegan 1 menit film animasi Final Fantasy VII:Advent Children itu butuh waktu sekitar 1-1,5 minggu buat nyelesaikan! Sementara durasinya berapa? Wowowow... kalo bukan rajin dan gak gampang menyerah, apa lagi coba modal mereka? Terus baru-baru ini juga pembuatnya, Square-Enix Corporation, sedang membuat sekuel keduanya, yaitu Final Fantasy VII:Advent Children Complete, dimana ini merupakan pembaharuan dari seri pertamanya. Akan ada tambahan adegan, perubahan gerakan dan suara, juga sedikit perubahan tatanan grafis disini! Bagi kamu-kamu yang cinta film dengan aksi agak sadis dan berdarah, bisa pilih FFVII:ACC ini. Tapi bagi kamu yang ogah darah, bisa pilih sekuel pertamanya, FFVII:AC. Hayo... Jepun aja udah kayak gitu. Kita kapan??? Buat satu film aja udah ogah-ogahan. Apalagi dua??
