Took the ESL test today in campus, brix accompanied me today in place of my sister, cause she was at work. The test is pretty simple, only write a simple essay just like TOEFL and you get 45 minutes to finish it. The topic i choosen is the benefits of modern technology, kinda hard though, luckily i still remember some of the lesson when i attended TOEFL preparation class in TBI when in Indonesia. I make the 1st paragraph that contain intro, and made 3 statement & explanation paragraph and the last is the close paragraph. At that time my handwriting was really bad, cause it's sure long time since i wrote, so i am not used to it again. I must wait for the result between 1-2 weeks, after the result is out then i can take math test, and after math test done, i can go to the advisors to register class. And not to forget i also met amy bureau, enrollment advisors in columbus for international student.

After taking ESL test we went straight home, since i didnt have any breakfast and lunch yet he treated me McDonalds. It's located near our apartment, and bought it through drive thru. Since i dont have favorite so i choose the same as him, Quarter pounder Meal, it contains beef burger, french fries and a coke, it'll cost you around $3-4 each meal. I thought the the burger is huge, but it's same size like in indonesia, but a little bigger, kinda dissapointed, it wont make me full with just only 1 burger, at least i eat 2 of them.

In afternoon, brix prepare the dinner, chicken with spinach, my sister favourite. And i almost forgot that he do all the laundry for us (omg), i dont think that he would go that far. The laundry is here are done by machine, the apartment provide us with that, it's located in the underground and for using it you must pay, if i'm not mistaken it's around more than $1 for cleaning and drying (yeah, cleaning and driying are on separated machine). And he wouldnt mine paying for that. In afternoon my sister went to target to buy a blanket/futon for me, it's not necessary for me but she insist.

Another thing i done is download anime and manga, so far i only dowload naruto manga and gundam seed destiny eps 9-12. Can wait for the eps 13 to go out, because in the preview that freedom is out in this episode, dont know whos driving it, and probably saviour too will appear. Somehow what for today bittorrent was acting good, i downloaded eps 10 before i went taking ESL, and when i went home it's already finished, it's less than 2 hours of downloading 200mb+, i approximately the d/l speed is around 100Kb/s/ And for the next 2 episode the speed are vary between 20-80Kb/s.

Little things that i want to say about

Music : None

It's already 4 days since my arrival, and (not) so many things happen in that time. When i arrived in columbus, it's winter season in here, and also there is snow too. The temperature may vary between -10 degree celcius in the night to around 10 degree celcius in noon. And there is possibility blizzard / snowstorm happening in near future. Most of the area are covered by snow except for the road itself. The vegetation are dead, the only thing we can see from the tree is the trunk.

The apartment is located in the north area, north riverside residential area. When i say apartment, it's not like what you think like the apartment in the big city, in here where i stay there are only 2 buildings, 3 floor tall for each building, and separate by parking lot. We occupy apartment number 216, it has 2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, 1 closet, kitchen area that merge with tv room. Each apartment furnished with carpet and also air cooling system that double as heater. The interior are painted in white.

For entertaiment there is a cable tv that my sister subscribe, the name of the operator i think time warner cable. The subscribtion is the premium one, so not all the channels open, right now there is around 200 channels to watch, but if you have full one, the channels can be double to 2-3 times. Beside that they also provide movies on demand, it's not just movies cause there are also tv series, news, music, etc that i think popular, you can watch all of those anytime, it's just like playing vcd/dvd or cd/cassete but with no media. To make it easier it's just like sharing the files on computer, one computer share the files to another computer, so everyone can acces the files on that computer.

Other than that we also have intenet connection, DSL i think. We got the connection from neigbors (which are indonesian too), our neighbors subscribe to DSL provider (he said roadrunner) and then sharing the connection with other people in the apartment. This computer i am using it right now is my sister laptop, it run on wireless pc card to connect to the router/modem in neigbors room. The speed may vary depend on the site, mostly for direct download i get 100-200 Kb/s or more, and if good condition can boost to 300 Kb/s, sadly it perform poorly in bittorrent and mirc.

For transportation we have a car, it's honda civic. Cant tell much about it, the color is silver, and all the other thingsare standard.

It's very cold in here.......

Music : Any Christmas song

Firstly i want to say merry christmas to everyone who read this ( though i doubt there is no one read this page anyway ). At last i can all the stories from the last post ( last post i was in singapore changi airport ) cause i already settled in in my sister apartment.

From changi airport i use bigger plane than before, this time i using Boeing 747-400 Megatop, i got seat in last section of the plane, and i didnt get seat in the emergency seat instead 2 rows behind it. To make the matter worser, i had to seat with 2 indian middle age woman. In other way the seat infront and back of me is empty, and i planning to change seat after stopover in hongkong. In hongkong airport (dunno know the name) it's already night, we all must get off the plane and go for the new gate, cause the airplane need to be cleaned and refueled before the long journey. Not long after i arrived at the gate, boarding was announced, i went to to the same plane, with the same seat, and with same fellow traveler.... but wait, this time those 2 wont be accompanied me cause i think they're went off in hongkong (at last the noisy one were gone), and also the women in seat row infront of me, in other word the row seat in front and back of me are totally empty. And also there are a lot of an empty seats this time -> less people. I forgot to tell that passenger who were seating 2 row infront are indonesian family, same nationality just like me. And here goes my 12 hours flight hours to san fransisco. First thought that i must spent 12 hours with uncomfortable, but gosh god help me this time, beside getting rid off 2 passenger beside me, the entertaiment in plane was great, we had our own personal lcd screen. There are few things to do, but it still great, with it we can watch movies that are vary from the latest blockbuster movie to asian movie, there also musics if you like to hear music with many genre to choose, and if you get boring you can play games, yes video games, but most of the game are for children (taken from gameboy) like mariobross, pokemon, zelda, etc. The collest thing is there are games that you can play with others pasenggers in the plane, but not many to chose, only 3 : chess, othelo, and a cardgame. That are all activity i done in the plane, hear music (most heard is you raise me up by josh groban), watch movie (there are so many movie, all in total about 66 movies beside others channel), play games, slept, and had meals and lavatory of course.

After 12 hours i arrived in sf airport, its around 6 pm, this is the first time i visit USA so i must to register (man only-> thats not fair), because the last time i went to the usa was around 1996, and after the 9/11 accident the regulations are changed. All the people that come to USA must report they arrival to immigration office (again man only), also if they want to leave they also have to report again. After long procedures i got out at 8 pm, i am tha last 2 person that came out that flight beside there is another man that still interogated when i'm done. Outside my brother already waiting for me, yeah he waited for 2 hours, i still remember he paid $17 for parking fee, after that he took me a dinner in 2nd chinatown and chose japanese food. You can order of 2 combination that you like, I myself ordered fish and chicken, beside that we also ordered sushi. Japanese food kinda expensive in japan, a set of combination will cost you around $13. After dinner we bought a bubble tea next to the restaurant. My brother show me sanfransisco a little, he take me to a angel island, and a glance of sanfransisco at night. After that we get back to apartment. The apartment itself is rather far from the city, it will take around 30 minutes or so, it's located in hayward, but the apartment is close to my brother univercity (hayward too), after that i straight to slept, my brother told me to slept in his room.

Next day, around 3 pm we get off the apartment. We went to the only mall in that area searching for jacket, we couldnt get it cause there is no size for it, after that we search for a shoes. We went to the store named Payless Shoes Source or Payless Source Shoes dunno know which is right, got the shoes but the size is to big (14) and that store doesnt have number 13, the worker said that another store had number 13 so we went there and bought that. After that we went to Ross if im not mistaken searching for a jacket, I got a jacket (not a good one) and also bought a bacpack for me. And for dinner we went to barkeley and eat korean food. My brother took me crabbing after that, he met with his friend that invite him to crabbing. It's located in the pier 7, and for those dunno know crabbing, crabbing is just like fishing, but you only catch crab. For information, fishing and crabbing in this area is free, you cant catch, but there is a limit to a size of fish that you cant take, and there is another warning that eat at your own risk, because fish in this area are contaminated, they only suggest ate 2 fish /month. There were also few friends of my brother came joining crabbing later thought only 1 people done the job, the others only watching and chatting, they only help when the nets were ready to raised. Got not many crabs this time, only 10 or more so, maybe because the current are strong and also the wind is very cold that night. I got home around 2 am that night and we were all exhausted.

The next day, the last day i'm staying with my brother. Woke earlier this time, around 10 or so. My brother took me to the san fransisco bay to watch sea lion. We parked then went for a walk, since my brother dont know the exact location we just continue to walk, alongside the road there were no many people at that time and also there are restaurants, cafes, etc scattered along the road. The sea lion itself located in the pier 39, already had a lot of visitors at that time. Enjoying seing sea lion for sometime and after that continue to the pier 39 itself, they had a regular show everyday in the open theatre. At that time they performed a jugler, it's not funny thought, after the show finished, the jugler expect some donation from the visitors. After that we bought churos and and icee for me and get back to the car, at the walk back we also bought a cup of crab meat. Next was get a lunch, he said that we will went to chinese restaurant in chinatown area -> li yat that famous for it's delicacy -> pig intestines, but since the parking are full instead he took me to the thai restaurant and we ate roast duck in there. After that we were planing to buy jacket in niketown (a store that only sell nike product) located around union square, but since that night was christmas eve you can imagine there ARE many people in the road, and not to forgot the traffic jam. Since it's impossible to found parking, so we agreed to went home cause it's already 5 pm at that time, and i must go home to prepare the bagage cause that night i had to flight to catch.

We went home with traffic jam along the road and after arrived i immediately packed the bag, not long after that we already took off cause san jose international airport kinda far from hayward. As soon as we arrived, parked the car, and went in to the terminal, and check in. In usa you check in your ticket with computer, there is no need to go to counter, you only go to counter to check in your bagage. Got some trouble with the bagage, the first bagage seems to overweight that surpass the limit, sure you can but you must pay extra $25 for that, but it's okay, we already predicted that before so we exchange some of the belonging between those 2 bag. After that i went pass the security check, as usual the check was very strict, we must remove all the belonging from our body except for the clothes, and somehow what only certain people that were checked closely, including me. The guard using metal detector to check me, and the other check my bacpack. After that i waited in the gate until boarrding. The plane i using this time is 737-700, and the airline is continental, it's old and small plane from 737 family, seat configuration is 2-2 for bussiness and 3-3 for economy, and 1 thing for sure the seat was very cramped, it made my ass hurt, as i must hold for 5 hours like that. They only provide only drinks, and for food we must to pay. After i arrived in newark airport (new jersey), i had 3 hours free time to spent, and as usual i alway went search the gate first, and just sit down nicely there waiting for boarding. Boarding time got little delayed, but it's okay, the airplane itself can be consider as a small plane, like private jet but bigger, embraer 140/145. Its operated by express jet in colaboration with continental. The flight time only less than 2 hours.

2 hours later i arrive in the columbus airport, there only 2 flight from newark to columbus that day. The view from plane before i landed is clear white, most of the landmark are covered with snow except for the road. After landed we have to walk a little cause the trunk cant fit the door of small jet, so we must get off the plane and took the stairs down and took the stair again entering the trunk, thats my first time experience cold weather, even my breath can be seen in air like smoke. My sister picked me up in the airport with her "friend" (later it became boyfriend), when i came out after taking the bagage, into the drop off / pick up area waiting for the car, the temperature was VERY cold, the first time i felt VERY cold, and i mean it, it's very very cold outside. My sister introduce me to her "friend" brix, then help me load all the bagage into the car, and after that we went for a lunch, we went to the chipote, a fastfood restaurant that serve buritos, and the buritos in that place is sure big, even myself can eat them all. After that we drop my sister at her workplace, near the chipote, exactly at the mall, my sister told brix to show me around, and he first brought me to best buys, and nobles & barnes bookstore cause he is searching for particular books but sadly he didnt found what is he searching for (he bought me a starbucks coffee here), so he decided went to another nobles & barnes, got a traffic to until got a phone from my sister to pick her up at the mall. So we pick up my sister at the mall, and go to the bookstore and this time he got the books. After that we went home cause it's already afternoon, first glance at the apartment -> that sure is nice place to live. My sister place is located in 2nd floor, room number ??? ( i forgot ), and there was still her roommate in there. That night my sister took me to brix house to celebrate christmas with his family, also brought her roommate jimmy (jimmy is 17 years old, younger than me, she already in her 2nd quarter this january), spent christmas with brix family, cause all the brix family is christian. After went to apartment i spent my time in front of computer until morning, and then i slept in the morning until afternoon, in the afternoon my sister took me to the ICF gathering (Indonesian Christian Felloship) that regularly held every saturday. Most of the people were stranger to me, since they're all indonesians it was easy to got to know each other. After that they all go to some sort of entertaiment centre, i was invited but i refused to go. And we went home to apartment.

I thinks that's all happened, thought it's not very detail it covers all things that happen this week.

USA here i come

Music : none

Just like i post in tagboard, currently i am in the changi airport of s'pore, just left today from Jakarta to S'pore at 10:30 this morning, arrived in s'pore at 13:00 pm singapore time. Have to wait another 2 hours before my next departure at 16:00 pm, and now playing internet since they offers free acces but only for 15 minutes per session ( who cares about that, i already 30 minutes in front of this computer ). The reason i acces internet cause i must check my email for online ticket that my brother send me through email, sadly i dont receive any email that contains about the ticket.

I thinks thats all, tired standing, still 2 hour left. I post completely after i arrive in ohio.

December is coming

Music : I'm free - Creed

At last, the last day of this month before passing to december (wee... i love december). Counting my last day in here, still 2 weeks. At least i can enjoy this 2 weeks, can watched 10 eps of digimon, laying around in the house, watching tv, playing videogames, surfing internet, went to m2m (can do this twice), and whatever i like to do.

I already got my password filled with new visa, my mom took it for me yesterday, cuz at that time i thought it's already to late, so i said that we take it the day after, but my mom said always do what can you do now, so she went alone, and also the time that given to take the password is short, less than 45 minutes, later than that you must wait for the next day.

Today my friend came, just to return some pc games of mine, he just finished his class and went to my house. As usual he playing games, still addicted to tycoon games, but now he play zoo tycoon instead rollercoaster tycoon, show him jurassic park operation genesis, first time he seem didnt intererested, but before he went home he borrowed the game, and also read manga that i recently downloaded after that i told him, if i didnt told he would probably went home sooner. Because of that he ate in my home too. He went home around less than half past eight.

Today also i uninstaled all the games in my computer, now it's clean. Actually i get bored playing all those games, been tried old games like black&white and age of empires 2, alas it wont work. Now i have nothing to do except goin for the internet, still thinking old games that i wanna to play that probably work in my computer. (Hoping that someone will buy me a ps2 before i go)

As usual

Music : Dont worry, be happy - Bobby McFerryn

Just got myself naruto, bleach and also a few yakitate!!! chapters today, yakitate finished recently. Sure it takes a long time when using a dial up, naruto only have 1 chapters and can easily downloaded via direct download, bleach to have 2 chapters but you only get from irc, and for yakitate! only avalaible on torrent (because it's release recently, direct download version will be release a few day after). Whole day i used to d/l, the longest one was yakitate!, 25 mb in size and contain 8 chapters (104-111), start around 2-3 pm, finished around before 8 pm, the same time Lilo & Stich ended, yeah i left the computer and watched tv after saw that disney channel showing lilo & stich, why bother sitting in front of computer, but i always check time to time to make sure it's okay or not disconnect.

Still playing RCT2, there are a lot of new scenario to play with, a lot of scenery/theme to put, and also there are new ride from the expansion, but i think they all the same one, only given variation and theme. I just love all the new park, they own song on their own, also have their themed rides that suit to the current park, and the prebuild rides are great, i always use them, never build my own coaster, to lazy, besides if i build myself, somehow what nobody will get in so it just wasting money imo. (money???whatz that???)

Not to mention, i still plying nfsu2, got the new save game, and it's 100% complete, it unlock the wide bodykits that previous save game didnt, also there are new bodykits, rims, spoiler, and decals/vinyls. Every car look different to the application of widebody kits, not all the car looks good in it, only a few of them, and also the widebody cant be use in the SUV, only sedan can wear them.

And today i forgot to go to church, because i overslept and no one wakes me up. I think my mother went for the morning one. Tommorow i will pick my visa, and the day after tommorow will go to the aminef for briefing, and the day after that it will be december (wee.....). I love this month, a holy month, beside my birthday, my big sister birthday also in december, there are christmas followed by newyear. Lastly i have still have 2 weeks more to have fun as much as i can, if possible i want to buy ps2, hopefully my parents will buy me one.

widebody celica, it looks like f360 modena 

Expansion anyone???

Today I went to M2M again, i went a little bit late cause i have to wait my friend came to my house, he ussualy came around 4 o'clock but came late 1/2 hour later, so we went around half past 4. The sky is cloudy at that time, encounter a small rain but not for long before it stoped completely but still cloudy. Myself dont have anything particular to buy, but since we already there, there's nothing wrong just looking around. I and my friend part in the brigde, he wants to go to Sinar Meta store, i'm to lazy to walk there cause it's located in the building accros, we have to walk a little bit further, not to mention it's located in the old building (not in the mall), it doesnt have an air conditioning, not to mention the small path, cramped with the seller, people walking, dirty path, sometimes we can smell strange aroma, etc.

Apart from there, i went to pc games store, looking around for a new games one after another store, sure there's a lot a game i want to buy, i mean it there's a lot i want to but after thinking that i dont have computer that are "good enoough" to run the latest games, plus the expensive price -> say good bye..... X_X. But it'll be waste if i dont buy something, since my mother gave me some money so i decided to buy 2 games and i picked the expansion of RCT2, Wacky Worlds and Time Twister, it only cost me Rp50.000, still had 50k left, i dont want to spent all the money, there is still next week or maybe i'll buy ragnarok voucher. After that i wait in the main hallway, just sitting there waiting (for a long time), actually i must hurry go home because my mother need the car at 7 o'clock, i myself have no problem with that but i forgot to tell my friend, all the time are wasted waiting for my friend, and i cant just left him there. Lastly I met him around 6.30 when i plan to go home, just before i went to parking lot. In the end there not enough time, so my mother decided to take taxi.

Went home around 10 minutes past 7, the road has a lilttle traffic but it's okay, and went straight to the computer and you guess it, install the game (wee....). Play the game, actually not me playing, my friend was, he also liked RCT after i shown him making custom coaster, after that he borrowed the game from me and became addicted. He play for a while from we back from m2m to around 10 o'clock, after that went home because it's already late for him, maybe his mother will scold him coming home late. I think thats all today unless you want the detail about the game :P, end of story.

Let's learn english

Music : Hey Jimmy! -Hav

Boring......., that's what i think in my mind, nothing to do. Day by day have same rutinity, watching digimon in animax, and playing computer games. Actually I really want a PS2 badly, i wanna play an rpg games, somehow feel boring playing computer over and over (though there is certain game that can make me stay for an hour or more). I hope i can get those before i go to the us, of course with a lot of games.

Actually right now i dont have a mood or neat to sit in front of computer, cuz now i feel tired and sleppy because of playing game whole day (almost) yesterday. But I have "thing" to do first, thought not necessary but somehow in my brain tell me to do it. That thing is filing my blog, I regularly fill my blog ( yep, this page that you're reading now, although i doubt there are someone read this), and somehow it became habit, always post when i have time, thought also depend in my mood.

, i forgot to take screenshots from ragnarok, cuz today the voucher is expired (most likely, forgot when last time fill the voucher). But I still have some of old screenshot, there are my monk, alchemist(deleted), merchant (new one), arcer(old), dancer(old) but doesnt have a screenshoot of my priest character, probably i will buy a new voucher if i have time, wanna spend all the zenny before the account is deleted. Sigh, but i'll keep my promise, i will post the screenshot before i go. (anyone want my account???)

He..he.. sorry I suddenly wrote in english, i am practicing my english (writing one), cuz everyday i only hear a lot of english conversation in tv, and i cant catch the meaning very well, thought not all the show really hard to follow, there are easier one like anime/cartoon. I myself still need polishing my english skill, i think my english skill (writen or oral) still not good enough, i have diffilcuty speak english clearly, maybe because of my style of speaking fast. Also i never talk to foreingner directly, I rarely speak english, only speak in occasional event like when i attended an english class for TOEFL preparation, sometimes speak english to myself, repeating the words that are shown in the tv, etc. I think thats all, correct me if there are any mistake, and any miss spelling cuz i'm still learning.

Ga ada 3, 2 pun jadi

Maksud gw diatas mainin Rollercoaster Tycoon 2, berhubung kalau main yang RCT3 jalannya sendet di komputer gw, terpaksa beralih ke seri sebelumnya. Jeda 2 hari ga ngisi, gara2 keasikan main RCT2, kangen main RCT sih pengen buat rollercoasternya, ada kenikmatan sendiri kalau main game jenis tycoon, betah berlama-lama didepan komputer jadinya. Untuk NFSU2 sendiri masih main, tapi udah ga sering2, lama2 bosen juga karena terkesan repetitif.

Kemarinnya kemarin udah drop password di US Embassy, asli lama banget, gw kira cuma drop biasa aja, eh ternyata pakai antri segala karena setelah drop pssword kita harus dapat semacam kartu tanggal pengambilannya lagi dan gw dapat yang tanggal 29 nanti. Yang mau drop password banyak yang rata2 kebanyakan cowo semua(???), dan yang memperlama prosedurnya gara2 cuma ada satu loket yang melayani. Disana ketemu anak sebaya gw yang mau kuliah keluar juga, gw sendiri ga banyak chit-chat sama dia, dia cuma bilang alasan dia balik lagi gara2 kelupaan bawa I20-nya, karena tadi pagi dia kelupaan bawa. Gw masuknya sendiri ke embassy kira2 jam 1/2 2, keluarnya kira2 jam 4 kurang, dan itupun masih ada yang nungguin pula.

Soal keberangkatan gw, masih tetep sih nanti tanggal 13 desember, cuma yang berangkat hanya gw sendiri, nyokab gw ga ikut gara2 susah dapat tiket pulangnya. Jadi gw berangkat kesana sendirian, nanti di sanfransisco ketemu kk co gw yang nganterin gw ke ohio. Agak nervous juga sih, soalnya ga pernah pergi sendirian apalagi keluar negeri, dan lagipula gw pergi2 keluar negeri juga udah lama, takut nanti ada apa2. Gw pribadi sendiri sih agak takut, tapi gw harus bisa, udah gede gw (ntar desember 21th). Dan kata nyokan gw, refund tiket nyokab gw bisa gw pakai buat beli komputer katanya, gw pribadi sih mau beli PS2 untuk jangka pendeknya, semoga hal ini terkabul sebelum gw pergi.

Weee..... I love monday!!!

Music : Lean Back - Fat Joe & Terror Squad

Temen "biasa" gw datang hari ini, udah rencana memang, tadi niatnya sabtu tapi dia ga bisa gara2 ditempatnya hujan jadi pindahin hari ini. Tujuan dia datang ke rumah gw biasa buat pergi ke m2m, datang sih siang sekitar jam 2-an, tapi berangkatnya jadi molor jam 4-an, gara2 gw bilang gw udah d/l manga baru dan dia jadinya baca dulu. Gara2 ini gw jadi ga sempat nonton digimon, karena berangkatnya aja jam 4 kurang jadi mana keburu nonton. Ke m2m sendiri tujuan utamanya dia ke "sm", berhubung lewat butik dulu (lihat manga dulu) jadi ke butik dulu cari anime, dan gara2 di butik sendiri dia belanja kebanyakan jadi bugdet buat ke "sm" abis, akhirnya batal niatnya ke "sm". Beli anime juga gw sih tapi ga banyak, cuma unhabited planet survivor vol 12-13, sama kenran butousai vol 6. Judul yg teman gw beli beck, yakitate, tactics, fantastic children (klo ga salah), samurai7, sama gseed destiny. Pulang ke rumah, nonton the simpsons, baru nonton animenya. Dan hampir lupa dia kali ini datangnya ga seperti biasa pakai motor, gara2 motornya lagi di servis, jadi dia naik bus.

Kemarin juga sempat d/l lagu2, memang lagi niat cari soundtracknya dari nfsu2 sama film2nya disney. Dapat lumayan banyak lagu untuk soundtracknya nfsu2, dapat 2 soundtracknya disney tarzan yg dinyanyiin phil collins. Lupa bilang kalau gw downloadnya pakai program p2p baru, bukan pakai Kazza Lite lagi, kali ini pakai Ares, karena isunya sih KLite udah mati (ga tahu mati atau ga), tapi ada KLite Ressurection, yup namanya pakai tambahan ressurection, ga jelas juga sih apa mereka masih orang yg buat klite atau grup baru yang nerusin projek ini, gw sendiri sih belum nyobain makainya soalnya udah keburu d/l Ares waktu itu. But not to worry, masih banyak cara mencari lagu di internet, mati satu tumbuh seribu.

PS2, yup gw mau ps2 nih, mau minta beliin sebelum gw berangkat ke US tanggal 13 nanti. Bisa mati bosen gw disana, ga ada komputer (cc gw ada laptop sih), ga ada internet cepat (ga tahu ada koneksi intenet atau ga), ga ada games, ga ada anime, tapi masih ada tv :P. Doain aja permintaan gw dikabulkan sebelum gw berangkat yah.

Gereja,Hujan,Friendster and Sasser

Mood :

Music : Blackbetty - Spiderbait

Ahhh minggu, baru pulang gereja nih soalnya tadi masuk yang jam 8 pagi dan selesainya 1.5 jam kemudian, pas mau keluar gereja malah hujan lebat jadi kepaksa nungguin sebentar sampai reda dikit, untungnya tukang parkirnya udah kenal en dipinjemin payung. Seperti biasa pulang gereja bakal ga lengkap kalau ga beli sesuatu dan kali ini beli roti di saint anna, memang ga selalu roti sih karena ada beberapa makanan favorit kaya dunkin donuts, mie yang di jalan cendana, miebihun bakso yg jualan di depan gereja t27a, kalau ga beli di gereja.

Kemarin sabtu, ga pergi kemana-mana, ada temen gw datang, gw sih ga nyangka bakal ada yang datang. Memang sih akhirya ga jadi pergi kemana-mana, nongkrong aja jadinya didepan komputer. Mayoritas sih kepakai buat surfing di friendster, teman gw yg ini memang masih "buta" soal internet, kemarin baru buat alamat email sama account di friendster. Soal friendster sendiri gw ga gitu antusias, maklum gw lebih seneng menyendiri, gw ga mencari teman, lebih prefer dicari teman. Daripada masuk friendster gw lebih seneng buat jurnal/blog/website kaya gini, nulis apa yang gw suka, buat self amusement gw sendiri.

Sasser strikes back!!!! gw sendiri masih belum yakin apa komputer gw kena virus sasser, kemarin sih sempat muncul gejalanya beberapa kali dimana komputernya bakal muncul pesan error yang mengacu ke lssas.exe dan bakal shutdown dalam 60 detik, sejak kemunculan pertamanya gw udah yakin ini pasti virus. Cuma anehnya dari kemarin malam ga pernah muncul lagi sampai sekarang, udah d/l critical updatenya sama sasser removal dan setelah gw cek pakai 3 program: stinger, avast, sama dari microsoft malah nihil hasilnya ga kedeteksi adanya sasser infection. Virus ini sebenarnya udah lama, berhubung gw baru install fresh windows dan belum update semua critical updatenya (belum ada sp1&2) kemungkinan keserang virus waktu konek internet pasti ada.

Hampir lupa, kalau di NFSU2 ada Toyota Corolla AE86 alias Trueno atau Hachi Roku, bagi yang pernah nonton Initial D (mobil yang dipakai tokoh utama) atau suka lihatin japan drifting pasti tahu, mobil lama sih, hatchback dan modelnya blocky, tapi udah menyandang mesih 2.0 DOHC. Somehow what sampai sekarang masih dipakai aja ini mobil.

NFSU2 keren

Music : soundtracknya NFSU2

Sesuai topic, dari kemarin lagi asik main NFSU2. Kemarin saking bosennya ga bisa ngapa2in akhirnya pergi ke m2m juga buat beli game. Lumayan jalan kesana agak sepi, tapi begitu udah sampai disananya kelihatan malnya ramai, masuknya aja sempat ngantri (gw parkir di m2m malnya, bukan gedung sebelahnya), parkir basementnya bisa dibilang sangat penuh dan untung aja gw dapat parkir. Di malnya sendiri di lantai2 tertentu rame banget khususnya lantai 2&3 dimana kebanyakan toko2 cd sama yg jualan dvd. Cuma beli 3 game berhubung hargaya mahal sih @25k /cd, tapi apa bolehbuat beli juga. Abis beli langsung pulang kerumah dan lo tahu sendiri kelanjutnanya :P

Selain NFSU2 gw juga beli Zoo Tycoon 2 sama Rollercoaster Tycoon 3. Enak mainin game2 jenis tycoon bikin betah berlama-lama, apalagi sandbox modenya. Game pertama yang gw install Zoo Tycoon 2, instalasi berjalan lancar, tapi pas mau loading gamenya keluar message bahwa processor gw ga memenuhi requirementnya (mintanya 733Mhz), bisa sih masuk tapi jalannya bakal ga normal. Pas masuk dan setelah bikin profile, abis itu ditawarin main tutorialnya, loading screen abis itu. Sayangnya loading screennya pas selesai ga ada reksi apa2 tetap aja di kondisi seperti itu dan harus di restart kalau udah gitu, jeleknya lagi kadang2 bisa keluar error message dan abis itu dibuang ke window lagi. Udah gw coba beberapa kali hasilnya nihil, gw rasa sih akibat processor gw dibawah minimum requirementnya, kesel akhirnya langsung gw uninstall. Game kedua yg gw install Rollercoaster Tycoon 3, bisa masuk dan jalan lancar, dan gw langsung mainin yg sandbox modenya, pertama sih jalannya lancar, tapi kalau udah bangun beberapa permainan bakal kerasa lagnya, semakin banyak permainan bakal semakin lag, apalagi kalau bangun rollercoaster dijamin bakal lag. Jalan sih jalan, tapi lagnya bikin stress dan bikin gw jadi males main. Terakhir instal NFSU2, salah satunya game yang lumayan kalau gw bilang, ada lagnya tapi kadang2 juga jalan lancar. Sampai sekarang game ini yg paling sering gw mainin, dari segi gameplay sama seperti yg pertama, cuma ada beberapa perubahan. Gameplaynya mirip2 GTA, jadi kita dikasih satu kota besar yg dibagi beberapa distrik, dan untuk misinya juga mirip GTA dimana kita harus ke tempat tertentu, bedanya ditempat itu misi kita ya balapan bukan tembak2an. Untuk upgrade agak beda dikit, jadi kita ga bisa langsung upgrade dari custumize menu, tapi harus pergi ke toko yang nyediain dan upgrade disana. Costumization menunya lebih bervariasi kali ini, lebih banyak jenisnya. Ada 3 jenis balapan baru: URL, Street X, Freerun; url = underground racing league, sama kaya circuit kalau gw bilang cuma yg balapan elite semua, street x = mirip2 sprint tapi ada tracknya, dan tracknya agak kecil, freerun = bebas jalan2 kemana aja. Secara keseluruhan hampir sama, race -> get money -> upgrade your car, cuma dikasih "bumbu" supaya betah mainnya. Dan anehnya disertain mobil jenis SUV???, ada 3 SUV: Hummer H2, Lincoln Navigator sama Caddilac Escalade, heran gw SUV buat drag sama drift. Terakhir, soundtrakcnya keren2, bikin gw betah main sama bersemangat. (Gw kasih beberapa picturenya)

Udahan soal game, visa sekarang. Akhirnya semua udah, gw tinggal berangkat aja kesana. Nanti selasa gw harus drop off paswordnya ke us embassy dan ambil beberapa hari kemudian (jumat kayanya) , dan tinggal nunggu tanggal keberangkatannya.

SUV for drag & drift ??? Why not !!!

What kind of blogger are you?

Sedikit update....(biar ga bosen)

Kebetulan gw lagi nganggur sama internetnya lagi ga rewel, jadi gw ada update isi blognya.

Ga terlalu signifikan sih, cuma rapih2in sidebarnya aja, sama title pagenya. Tapi ada side effectnya dikit sih, berhubung gw banyak tampilin gambar di blog mungkin waktu loading timenya jadi bakal lamaan.

I'm back......, sebetulnya sih baliknya kemarin sore, berhubung kemarin pas pulang langsung tidur jadi ga sempat ngisi.

Lebaran ke Bandung kali ini kesannya biasa banget, kerjaan gw disana cuma tinggal terus di kamar hotel kecuali untuk pergi ke makamnya sendiri (watching tv rules), jadi gw ga bisa cerita apa2 buat kali ini.

Waktu sampai kesana sendiri udah sore maklum dijalannya sendiri disertai kemacetan di tempat2 tertentu sama ramai aja arusnys, ga tahu kenapa nginepnya di Hyatt lagi, gw kirain di Holiday Inn, gw sendiri masuk kekamar dan ga keluar malam itu (malamnya pada pergi makan keluar), cuma dibawain makanan aja. Besoknya pagi hari biasa breakfast jam 8-an, acara utama hari itu pergi ke makam dan itulah yang terjadi, abis itu seperti biasa gw balik ke hotel dan nonton, yang lain pada pergi makan, belanja, dll. Hari terakhir breakfast lagi paginya abis itu langsung balik, cuma kali ini tante gw (kk-nya bokap gw) ga ikut mobil gw kaya waktu berangkat. Ga langsung balik kerumah sih, pergi makan dulu ke Plaza Indonesia.

Semua anggota keluarga ikut kecuali dd-nya bokap gw, masing2 bawa mobllnya sendiri, om gw bawa mobil barunya BMW 520I (CKD), om gw yg satu lagi bawa (old) kuda diesel, dan keluarga gw pakai (new) kuda bensin. Kerasa kurang nyaman, maklum mobilnya ga dirancang buat speeding, kalau speednya diatas 80 km/jam mobilnya bakal bergetar, padahal tahun lalu gw juga bawa mobil ini dan baru bergetar di kecepatan 140 km/jam, katanya sih mobilnya belum pernah diservis sejak beli pertama kali, koplingnya susah masuk gigi 1 dan 2 gara2 plat koplingnya udah tipis, selain itu ban depannya juga ga balance kanan kirinya. Selain itu ga didukung faktor kenyamanan lagi, tempat duduknya keras jadi ga enak aja di punggung belakang, belum lagi ditambah sempitnya ruang gerak kaki. Abis itu juga ga ada dukungan faktor entertaiment, cuma ada radio tape dan itupula suaranya juga ga kedengaran jelas lagi, yang kedengaran jelas cuma suara mesin menderu di kabin sama suara orang ngomong,

Satu yang pasti, bukan gw yg nyetir kali ini, bokap gw. Banyak sih alasan gw ga mau nyetir, pertama faktor mobilnya sendiri, kedua gw ga suka kalau mobilnya ga nyaman, ketiga gw benci bermacet-macet ria bikin kaki pegel aja, keempat bahaya kalau gw nyetir kadang2 bisa kebawa emosi apalagi kalau lihat mobil cepat atau disusul dari belakang, kelima ada sdikit faktor gengsi.

it's time to go

Hari ini gw ga pergi kemana-mana, tadi pagi sih sempat kepikiran mau pergi ke m2m, tapi nyokab gw bilang tutup, tanpa pikir panjang gw langsung balik ke tempat tidur lagi. Baru bangun malamnya sekitar jam 8-an tadi, abis itu langsung cari makan, maklum dari tadi pagi belum makan. Gw belum bilang kalau malam ini malam takbiran, soalnya besok hari raya idul fitri ( klo ga salah lo ) dimana puasanya selesai udah, dan seperti biasanya orang ( islam ) bakal turun ke jalan ngerayain ( biasanya sih sambil mukul2 bedug ).

Dan besok gw bakal pergi ke bandung, seperti biasa menjalani rutinitas tahunan, ziarah ke makam, dst. Ga bisa cerita banyak soalnya pergi aja juga belum. Dan seperti biasanya lagi kita ke bandung bakal naik mobil, dan gw males soalnya pasti macet dijalan, memang sih rata2 kalau ke bandung gw yg nyetir, tapi lama2 bosen juga, apalagi ditambah dengam mobil yg "ga" nyaman untuk ke bandung kali ini, intinya besok gw ga mau nyetir, enakan gw duduk2 en tidur.

Selain itu gw lupa ceritain 1 minggu terakhir ini gw selesai d/l banyak manga ( pakai dial up tentunya ), memang sih lama, tapi worthed lah nunggu lama2 ada hasilnya. Memang sih gw udah agak lama ga d/l manga, sejak cablenya diputus gw berhenti kegiatan d/l sama main RO-nya, gara2 pengen banget baca kelanjutannya apaboleh buat akhirnya d/l juga. Lama??? pasti lah, soalnya speednya ga kaya cable dan juga bisa dc ditengah jalan pokoknya banyak deh suka dukanya, untungnya sebagian besar gw d/l dari mirc jadi klo dc tengah jalan bisa diresume.
Hal lain yg gw senang kalau pakai internet pada hari sabtu pasti jalannya lebih lancar, dibandingkan kalau pada hari2 kerja. Kemungkinan besar hari sabtu hari libur, jadi kantor ga ada, dengan ga ada kantor2 yang pakai koneksi internet, makanya bandwithnya semua bisa dialokasikan ke homeuser makanya bisa lebih cepat.

Terakhir gw cuma pengen bilang kalau komputer fresh install jalannya smooth banget

2 week to go & yet i got another 2 weeks again

Waa......jadwal gw pergi ke US jadi diundur tanggal 13 Desember nanti ( makjan 2 hari sebelum masuk kelas orientasi ), gara2 acceptance visanya sampai sekarang belum kedengaran kabarnya terpaksa tiket yang buat tanggal 26 November ini kayanya dibatalin atau ga tahu juga penuh kali. Ga nyangka visanya keluar lebih lama daripada yg gw perkirakan, kayanya mereka ngecek sampai sedetail-detailnya lagipula di form DS 157 disuruh isi data tentang keluarga sama kerabat, dan gw juga ada cc disana kemungkinan besar mereka ngecek dan bakal makan waktu.

Hari ini sempat bersih2 komputer, tapi cuma bersihin keyboard sama install ulang window aja. Bongkar keyboard, lumayan kotor akibat sisa2 makanan kecil, ga bersih2 banget sih tapi lumayan lah, tadinya sih mau semprot pakai air, takut rusak kaya keyboard gw yg lama ( gw rendam di air ). Mouse??? ga la ya, soalnya pakai optical jadi ga ada bolanya yang muter2 alias ga ada debu sama kotoran yg nempel. Abis itu install ulang windownya, sempat terjadi error sih waktu mau update ke service pack 2 ( cd-nya yg error ), untung cd yg pertama bootable sama disetup bisa repair damaged window ( sama aja gw bilang kalau repair sama install baru lagi, cuma kalau di repair file2nya ga ada yang didelete ), soalnya masih ada foto2 didalamnya en gw takut kalau fresh install fotonya hilang karena kalau fresh install bakal format lagi harddisknya. Setidaknya repairnya berhasil, fresh install, kerasa loadingnya sama shutdownnya cepat ga kaya dulu agak lama sama kalau buka2 folder masih cepat, sama 2 partisi lainnya partisi gw format lagi ( program sama game ). Sekarang sih udah ada beberapa program yg install lagi, kaya irfanview sama izarc ( mutlak perlu ), Ragnarok Online juga gw install lagi, tapi gw ga perlu update lagi, soalnya filenya updatenya udah gw copy jadi tinggal mindahin lagi ke partisi dimana ada RO-nya. Selain itu juga install driver yg mutlak juga kaya soundcard, videocardnya, dan modem. Sekarang sih lagi download wmp 10 sama directx 9c, soalnya versi di cdnya udah ketinggalan, ntar kalau sempat beberapa driver lain juga kaya videocardnya. Dan satu lagi yg menganggu udah ilang, yaitu munculnya popup warning dimana salah satu port usb device gw malfunction, padahal gw cek ok2 aja, memang sih penyebab gw install ulang windows ya ini, menganggu banget, gw ga bisa main game soalnya didalam game kedenganran bunyi popup warning window tadi, belum lagi ditambah error kalau connect ke internet.

Internet??? pasti donk, hal yg gw lakukan setelah install ulang windows yaitu seting internet, ga lama cuma install driver modem sama set telkomnet instan, dan wala...... tinggal masukin password teken enter, tunggu 1 menit dan anda terhubung ke internet ( sayang masih pakai dial up ), satu lagi yg gw rasain yaitu ga ada lag lagi kalau gw connect ke internet, sebelum ini klo gw connect pas terhubung ada lagnya, lebih kerasa lagi kalau buka beberapa web sama window media player bisa2 ngehang kalau udah gitu.

Mau ngomong apalagi yah, binun sekarang, sampai2 d/l wmp 10-nya udah selesai ( udah dinstall en dipakai lagi ), besok aja lanjutin.

Hari ini akhirnya masuk gereja juga , setelah beberapa minggu lalu ga masuk2 gara2 ga ada mobil. Somehow what setiap kali gw pergi ke gereja pasti selalu sama nyokab gw, jarang banget gw kalau ke gereja sendirian, diluar itu pasti gw ga ke gereja. Tadi pagi masuk gereja yang jam 6, kebetulan nyokab gw main organ, jadi gw yang nganterin berhubung gw masih bangun, soalnya semalaman gw main sampai pagi jadi daripada tidur mendingan gw ke gereja dulu ntar pulangnya baru tidur.

Masih nyambung, lihat judul, seperti yang ketulis diatas. Kebetulan lupa hari apa, lumayan pagi di transtv, pas nyalain tv dapat acara rohani / ceramah, ga lama kemudian dia ngomong kurang lebih "bukan apa yang anda inginkan, tapi apa yang anda perlu / butuhkan, Tuhan pasti akan memenuhkan kebutuhan anda pada saat yang tepat, dan juga anda harus berdungguh-sungguh". Akhirnya gw tongkrongin juga acaranya sampai habis, habis itu kepikiran, kalau dikaitkan sama kehidupanku. Kalau dipikir2 gw lebih ngutamain keinginan daripada keperluan gw, keinginan gw yang sekarang benar2 gw mau adalah main RO sepuasnya sebelum pergi, tapi gara2 ada hambatan muncul keinginan lagi yaitu cable internetnya dibayar biar nyala, kalau dipikir2 semua itu cuma keinginan gw, bukan yg gw perlukan sekarang ini, yg bener2 keperluan gw sekarang ini adalah permintaan visa diterima. Masih nyambung ke visa dikit, tentang website dimana kita suruh ngecek nomor password kita ada apa ga, kayanya ga berubah2 nomornya, itu2 aja, padahal diatas ditulis update regularly, masa cuma tanggalnya aja yang diupdate x_x.

3 minggu lagi ( kurang lebih )

Mood : +

Music : Sailing Day - Bump Of Chicken

Yup, kurang lebih 3 minggu lagi gw bakal berangkat, tanggal 26 november kalau gw ga salah.

Sebetulnya gw sendiri masih "kurang" confident kuliah keluar ( di hati sih memang udah niat banget ) karena kalau kuliah disana otomatis harus pakai bahasa inggris, semuanya pakai bahasa inggris dan disinilah gw masih ragu. Gw sih bisa bahasa inggris, biar ga gitu lancar setidaknya untuk ngomong kecil2an bisa. Setidaknya gw ga sendirian disana -> ada cc gw, coba gw sendirian disana, mati kutu dah gw kalau ada apa2 T_T, lagipula ini baru pertama kali gw kesana dan bisa dibilang dadakan ga seperti kk2 gw dahulu, dimana mereka ikut sekolah bahasa sebelum masuk college ( selama 3 bulan ), sedangkan gw begitu sampai sana langsung masuk college, dalam arti kata gw harus udah siap ngomong inggris, masuk kekelas dimana semua "look like strangers to me", bakal nervous abis kayanya dah gw, belum lagi ditambah "type" orang seperti gw -> lengkap dah. Tapi gw kali ini bener2 mau kuliah, biar gw sendiri masih belum decide mau ambil major apa.

Asal usul gw kuliah ke luar sendiri gw sendiri masih ga kebayang, memang sih awalnya gw ga begitu interest buat kuliah keluar, waktu itu gw masih mikirin main RO, dan akhirnya sampai sekarang ini gw udah mau siap2 berangkat. Awal karir gw didunia perkuliahan dimulai tahun 2002 (wink), waktu itu gw baru lulus dari sma Kanisius dengan nilai yang "memuaskan" (evil wink), abis itu gw ambil SPMB sama ujian masuk ke Atma, sedangkan soal jurusan gw sendiri binun dan cap cip cup ambil yang standard aja manajemen baik UI maupun Atma. Alhasil gw ga diterima di UI ( biarpun diterima gw juga ga bakal mau ) dan gw masuk Atma jadinya. 3 semester ( 1.5 tahun ) berjalan dimana tiap semester makin parah, semester satu IP gw masih lumayan 2.3, lalu di semester ke-2 turun jadi 1.9 dan di semester ke-3 turun lagi jadi 1.8, dan akhirnya pada semester 4 gw mulai malas2an kuliah, gw cuma masuk 2 mata pelajaran aja dan sisanya gw ga pernah masuk, IP??? ga usah dibayangin soalnya di semester 4 sendiri semua SKS-nya bakal tertera huruf F gw rasa, KHS aja gw ga ambil. Bersamaan gw pula temen gw regi juga out dari Atma, belakangan dia masuk Unsada jurusan sastra Jepang. Dari sini gw ga kepikiran apa2 alias ga mau kuliah, but somehow what gara2 nyokab, gw jadi bakal kuliah keluar. Sebenarnya gw disuruh SPMB lagi, atau cobain Binus, lalu nyokab gw nyaranin Monash dan pada akhirnya gw resmi bakal kul keluar tepatnya Ohio, memang sih bulan2 awal kurang antusias ( sekitar juni-juli) dan sampai sekarang ini dimana segalanya udah siap, tinggal tunggu visa keluar dan "US here I come".

Udah soal diatas, mending balik ke keadaan sekarang aja. Seperti biasanya gw menghabiskan hari dengan rutinitas seperti biasanya, sayang makin hari makin bt in aja. Internet??? udah gw ga mikirin kesana lagi, bye...bye... internet cable connection, pakai dial up aja deh gw terpaksa setidaknya masih bisa terhubung ke internet ( with snail speed, even worser, setidaknya bukan gw yang bayar :P ). TV??? makin dikit aja tontonan gw, cuma tinggal Digimon Adventure aja ( masih ada beberapa sih kaya The Simpsons, Spongebob, Fairly Oddparents ), makin hari makin sedih aja dah gw. Dan untuk membangkitkan sedikit semangat gw akhirnya gw main lagi C&C Generals, tapi kali ini gw download banyak skirmish map jadi ga main di map itu2 aja. Satu lagi uneg2, jalannya C&C Generals ampun dah kalau udah mulau perangnya, gw jadi pengen komputer baru, pengen ngerasain main C&C Generals yang lancar.

Kemarin Haloween , sekarang November

Mood :

Music : Mirage in Blue - Chemistry

Akhirnya masuk juga bulan november, ga kerasa dalam jangka waktu 4 minggu lagi gw bakal berangkat. Memang sih perginya gw apa ga semua tergantung dari visanya diterima apa ga, sampai sekarang belum keluar juga hasilnya.

Kemarin 31 oktober -> Haloween, bagi yang ga tahu. Memang sih ga ada spesial2 banget, dan juga masyarakat sini kayanya ga peduli sama sekali, tv2 swasta aja ga ada nayangin acara yang bertemakan Haloween, kalau dibandingkan sama tv2 luar, mungkin gara2 haloween kebudayaan barat kali. Kerjaan gw kemarin paling2 cuma nonton tv, sama main game aja ( main c&c:generals lagi gw )

Soal RO, main beberapa hari ini sih, tapi gw udah ga antusias lagi mainnya, paling2 cuma jalan2 kesana kemari, pukul2in poring dkk, duduk2 di tempat nongkrong biasa ( prontera di kafra tengah ). Ntar kalau sempat gw post gambar semua karakterku sebelum gw berangkat, sekalian habisin sisa2 zennyku. Semoga aja dalam 4/5 tahun kedepan account gw belum dihapus, soalnya account gw yg pertama masih ada waktu gw coba log in, padahal udah ga aktif sejak RO komersil (2002?), padahal tenggang waktunya 3 bulan.

Segini dulu aja, lagi kosong pikirannya, ntar malam lanjutin lagi ( asli panas banget hari ini ).

1 tahun sudah lamanya...

Ga kerasa udah setahun lebih dari pertama gw ngisi, tepatnya setahun lebih sebulan ( gw kirain setahun / 12 bulan, kan dari oktober tahun lalu sampai oktober tahun ini, ternyata malah 13 bulan ). Jadi inget pertama kali ngisi dulu, blogger masih sederhana banget, ga ada macem2 feature kaya sekarang ini, pokoknya standar banget, dan kalau ga salah dulu Blogger masih independen, tapi sekarang udah diakuisisi sama Google, sejak itu jadi makin bagus aja, lihat aja GUI-nya, dulu mana ada selengkap itu, paling2 cuma buat bold; italic; font sama size, beda ama sekarang udah jadi lengkap. Klo mau lihat perbedaan blog atau contohnya bisa lihat blog gw awal2 sama yang sekarang ini.

Ngomongin Blogger jadi keinget sama internet dah gw, meski bisa masuk pakai dial up, tetap aja gw ga ngerasa puas, dan kayanya menurut perkiraan gw koneksi cablenya ga bakalan nyala sampai gw pergi nanti, padahal gw udah minta supaya dibayar sejak bulan september, abis itu itu oktober awal bokap juga bilang bakal paid tagihannya, tapi sampai sekarang belum nyala2 juga ( sigh ). Padahal gw ga minta banyak cuma minta dibayar tagihannya, jadi sebelum gw pergi ke us gw bisa puas2in main RO selagi masih bisa, dan kayanya keinginan gw ga bakal terpenuhi. Bokap gw memang kayanya kagak niat ngebayar, kagak peduli kayanya sih, sibuk sama urusannya sendiri. Sebetulnya sih masih ada alternatif lain, pergi ke warnet, sayangnya ga ada warnet dideket2 rumah gw, lagian ngapain juga main ke warnet, mending gww main dirumah pakai dial up aja. Anyway soal RO gw tiba2 jadi ga mood mainnya, padahal udah ada internet, tetep aja males kalau main pakai dial up. Gw pikir sih biarkan saja, masih ada 5 tahun depan ( asumsi gw lulus bachelor dan ambil master yg ga nyuruh kerja dulu ) soalnya RO ga bakal lari kemana2 paling2 ntar gw mainnya udah dewasa atau pt lytonya yang udah ga ada.

Masih nyambung, tadi kabelvision sempet down sebentar, dari jam 4 - 6 sore, sialnya down pas ada digimon jam 4.30, baru nyala lagi jam 6 kurang, gpp sih setidaknya masih bisa nonton wildstriker, gw masih bisa nonton tayangan ulangnya besok. Untungnya gw lagi pas main game waktu itu, jadi kurang interest nonton tv, kebetulan aja abis "isi" bersih2 komputer, lihat game C&C:Renegade, install lagi deh. Sebetulnya game lama sih, keluaran 2001, masih 1 seri sama C&C cuma gameplaynya beda bukan RTS melainkan FPS, eranya mayoritas di tiberian sun dimana yang bertikai GDI sama NOD, cuma di mix aja ga 100%, contohnya GDI ada mammoth tank, medium tank dan A-10, NOD ada commanche sama apache, padahal di game aslinya ga ada unit2 itu, mammoth tank cuma ada di seri red alert sedangkan sisanya ada di seri generals. Kalau di Red Alert ada Tanya Adams, Generals punya Col. Burton, Renegade punya Captain Nick Parker aka Havoc + timnya "Dead 6".

Mmmm bingung gw mau isi apalagi, belum ada kepikiran lagi sih, gw sih cuma bisa berharap cablenya nyala aja, cuma itu yang gw mau sekarang ini ( badly ).

akhirnya bisa masuk lagi

wew.......udah 3 minggu lamanya gw absen ga ngisi, rasanya seperti baru hari kemarin gw gw ngisi deh :P

3 minggu terakhir gw ga bisa ngapa2in, berhubung cablenya belum nyala + ditambah lagi teleponnya diputus makanya gw ga bisa ngapa2in selain mengandalkan tv aja, gw sendiri sih ga enak sama bokap yg biasa bayarin internet, dan kalau dipikir2 dari segi cost buat cable connection yang dimana ridicolusly overprice makin gw ga enak gw mintanya, menurut gw sendiri sih Rp550k ++ ($60) perbulan mahal abis untuk koneksi kaya "begini" ( kayanya sih semua ISP cable tarifnya sama untuk cable 64k)

Sekarang sih teleponnya udah jalan lagi ( setelah bayar tagihan yang selangit ), sayang tidak disertai dengan cablenya T_T, memang sih gw ga bisa berharap banyak, soalnya yang bayar juga bukan gw -not my money-, abis itu bayarnya untuk beberapa bulan terakhir, bisa kebayang berapa jumlah uang yang kepakai buat bayar internet, belum lagi bayar kabelvisionnya -> uang ga jatuh begitu aja, mungkin kita2 sih enak aja bilang ke ortu "pa/ma bayar internetnya donk! atau tv kabelnya" cuma gw ga enak aja mintanya, bisa dibilang kita sebagai anak dari ortu = money sucking / laundrying machine, soalnya selama kita masih dibawah pengawasan ortu semua expense kita dibayarin sama mereka. Gw sendiri ada beberapa yg gw mau kaya komputer baru, hp baru, sama koneksi internet, sayangnya gw ga bisa ngapa2in soal itu, bukan gw yg punya uang, gw juga belum bisa hasilin uang, makanya gw ga sampai hati mintanya.

Udah tadi uneg2 gw, 3 minggu terakhir gw ga cuma ngandelin tv aja, bisa stress gw bisa2, soalnya masih ada komputer, gw bisa main game, dan tepatnya itulah yg gw lakukan selama ini, gw sendiri bilang main komputer ngabisin waktu paling lama dalam 1 hari. Dan selama waktu itu hebatnya gw cuma mainin 1 game aja -> C&C:Generals sama expansion packnya Zero Hour, ga tahu kenapa gw betah main skirmishnya, bisa2 ngambil 1/2 hari dalam 1 hari selama 3 minggu terakhir ini, campaing sama challenge mode juga gw mainin lagi. Sebetulnya banyak sih game yang mau gw mainin, berhubung ada keterbatasan hardware apa boleh buat, jadilah main C&C, memang sih pas banget soalnya gw mau mainin game perang yang dimana ada tank didalamnya. Sekarang sih udah gw uninstall, bukannya bosen sih, cuma ga tahan aja jalannya lambatnya minta ampun apalagi kalau lagi perangnya.

Soal RO, tadi sempet nyobain sebentar, pakai koneksi dial up, masuk ga lama, ketemu teman lama, ngomong2 bentar, abis itu ke bawah prontera mukulin poring aja, memang lagi ga niat main sih, 1/2 jam ga nyampe tadi, cuma sempet survey harga aja, karena setelah ada patch baru harga pasti berubah. Ntar main kalau lagi niat, sekarang lagi ga mood main.

Sekarang beralih ke tv, yang gw tonton makin sedikit aja, di animax cuma nonton ufo baby, digimon adventure sama wildstriker aja, samurai x di axn; selebihnya berputar2 di channel yang sering gw tonton -> axn, disney, animal planet, animax, cartoon network, nickledeon, discovey, ngc, reality tv, dsc:t&a, cuma itu aja channel yg sering gw kunjungin selain tv swasta.

Soal kuliah kayanya udah pada jelas, gw udah keterima di CSCC 100%, semua udah beres tinggal berangkat kesana, cuma sekarang tinggal nunggu visanya keluar aja. Pergi ke kedutaan US sendiri udah jumat lalu, banyak juga sih form2 yang harus diisi dan mayoritas dibantuin sama agent (AMINEF), jadi gw tinggal bawa form aja, serahin, sama di-interview. Dan sekarang tinggal tungguin 3 minggu untuk hasilnya. Seandainya visanya diterima, gw bakal berangkat tanggal 26 november kesana, masuk kelas orientasi tanggal 15 desember, abis itu kelasnya sendiri mulai 3 januari.

Sebetulnya masih ada yang mau gw omongin, tapi gw mau udahan dulu, ngantuk soalnya selain itu lagi ga mood aja didepan komp.

mau nulis apa gw sendiri bingung
paling2 beberapa hari ini mainin game2 rpg di snes ( semuanya rom ), gara2 keseringan main gw jadi pengen punya ps2. ( pengen mainin game2 rpg yg ada di ps2 )

1. Chrono Trigger, square -> plg sering gw mainin, udah lumayan jauh juga. gameplaynya dari segala segi bagus + ceritanya bagus, gw sendiri udah bisa lawan raja terakhir ( ga ikut jalan cerita ) berhubung pakai cheat jadi semua stat bisa diubah. sayang lama2 gw bosen ga tahu kenapa.

2. Seiken Densetsu 3, enix -> mainin sehari langsung bosan, bukan turn based tapi realtime rpg. gamepalynya hack & slash + magic, ceritanya simple, bisa pilih "hero"-nya, sayang belum lama main gw dah bosan juga.

3. Secret of Mana, square -> cuma main sebentar.

4. Super Mario RPG, square -> plg gw suka diantara semuanya, grafiknya udah isometric 3d, mainin sebentar lsg udahan, sebelumnya udah pernah tamatin, jadi males mainnya.

selain itu nonton anime sama kartun ( rutin harian ), memang udah ga banyak sih berhubung udah ga ada yang bagus lagi. yang gw tonton cuma samurai x di axn ( 2 eps ), abis itu lanjut ke wild striker di animax, spongebob squarepant di nickelodeon, terakhir dr dokirri di animax lagi.

abis itu udah instal ep 6 : city of love, belum coba login sih berhubung belum bayar, besok aja tanggal 1 oktober bayar vouchernya abis itu bakal gw bot sampai tanggal 6-nya. klo masih pakai dial up 100% gw ga bakal bisa main siang2, plg2 mainnya malam sampai subuh. gw berharap cablenya dibayar aja, jadi mainnya ga "sengsara".

yipie....!!!!!!!!

Mau isi apa jadi binun, ga ada kejadian apa2 sih, soalnya trus2an dirumah aja jarang keluar rumah, kerjaanya nonton tv aja seharian.

Sabtu kemarin pergi ke m2m, akhirnya semua yg gw mau dapat semuanya, intinya gw nyari CD RO ep 6 yang gw dapet dari majalah kumpulan2 komiknya RO keluaran gamestation sama megindo sama animenya RO dan 2-2nya gw dapetin, selain itu beli anime juga fma dari 7-12 sama cheeky angel 8-13, sebetulnya sih ga niat beli berhubung udah ada vol sebelumnya jadi kebeli itung2 ngelengkapin sama buat tontonan.

Sempat juga d/l manga, baru yakitate!japan, midori no hini sama naruto yg selesai, masih ada one piece, bleach, dan blackcat. Kepaksa pakai dial up sih, udah kebelet baca, biar lama nunggunya yang penting dapat. Lumayan juga pakai telkomnet, 1 mb kira 10-15 menitan dengan d/l speed rata 1.5-3 Kbps, jeleknya sering putus sama mahal bayarnya.

Soal RO sendiri gw tiba2 ingin main lagi, ga tahu kenapa ingin main aja mungkin karena ep 6 city of love bakal di implementasikan, alasan lainnya soalnya gw ga bisa main game2 pc dengan spek komp yg udah lama ( p2400 ), sama harga game pc yg melangit sekarang ini @25k per/cd, jadinya gw main RO aja, soalnya masih jalan lancar di komp gw.

Enaknya bermalas-malasan

3 minggu lebih ga ngisi, selain gw rada sibuk ngurusin kuliah ditambah males.

Pertama urusan kuliah, gw udah keterima di columbus community college, cuma masih ada yang masih diurus, visa belum tahu kabarnya dapat apa ga, selain itu juga mau transfer nilai bekas gw di atmajaya selama 4 semester. Kuliahnya sendiri mulai 3 januari, sedangkan gw harus kesana untuk orientasi ( khusus international student ) sekitar bulan desember, jadi gw berangkatnya kira2 awal desember.

Masih ada sisa waktu 2 bulan lebih buat santai2, sayang keadaannya ga mendukung. Sebetulnya gw cuma perlu 1 aja, yaitu internet aja. Soalnya gw bisa ngapa2in dengan hanya itu aja, bisa d/l musik atau mangascan, surfing, isi blog, isi bbs, main ro, dll; tapi berhubung ga ada gw ga bisa ngapa2in, sekarang paling kerjaannya hanya nonton tv, surfing bisa pakai dial up plg2 cuma buat isi blog aja, diluar itu dah males saking lambatnya.

Mungkin masih nyambung sama internet, RO bakalan masuk ep 6 : city of love nanti bulan oktober -> nambah 2 kota baru, supernovice sama bisa nikah, jadi pengen main sih soalnya masih sisa voucher yg 1 bulan. Selain itu game The Sims 2 mustinya sih udah keluar, besok gw mau ke m2m cek apa udah keluar apa belum, sekalian beli anime sama dvd.

binung mau ngisi apa, lagi banyak pikiran sekarang, ntar malam aja lanjutin.

sendirian neh >_<

Hari ke-2 gw sendirian dirumah ( ga sendiri sih, ada 2 pembantu dibelakang), so far so good, ga banyak kejadian hari ini soalnya gw ga bisa ngapa2in, plg2 cuma nonton animax aja trus.

Sampai hari ini cablenya belum nyala juga, manapula dapat telepon dari kabelvision gara2 belum bayar 2 bulan terakhir, sama aja bohong klo internetnya nyala tapi TV cablenya diputus.

Hari ini tadi sore om gw datang, cuma buat ambil BMW-nya karena mau diservis, ga ada mobil deh buat ntar sabtu, padahal rencana mau ke m2m. Semoga aja servisnya dah selesai sebelum hari sabtu, karena rusaknya ga berat, cuma perlu ganti kampas rem (udah tipis kayanya) sama diservis mesinnya ( soalnya mesinnya bergetar, getarannya lumayan kerasa).

Terakhir yg gw pikirin stok makanan sama air, soalnya lemari esnya kosong alias belum belanja, paling2 gw makan mie instan aja trus.

Tadi lihat tiketnya, baru sadar mahal juga ternyata, sekitar $3600-an 4x flight, klo di kurs-in sama rupiah banyak juga dapat Rp 33 jutaan. Abisin 130 juta rupiah di tiket pesawat ( omg ) cuma buat datang ke graduation day cc gw.

Klo dipikir2 bosan juga sendirian, apalagi malam2 sendiri, pikiran gw mulai deh ga bener, makanya gw selalu begadang, nonton animax, main game, atau pasang musik yang penting ga sepi aja, asal ada suara gw tenang. Mainin game jurrasic park operation genesis lagi, kangen sama dinosaurus setelah nonton jurrasic park 3.

so long america...

yay gw udah ngisi lagi, bukan berarti gw dah sampai atau main di warnet, sekarang gw ada di rumah lagi. nah lo bingung kan ko gw bisa dirumah :)

ceritanya gini, dari tadi pagi sampai ke airport semua ok2 aja, sampai di check in, pas di cek di tiketnya nama belakang gw salah ( gw aja, yg lain pergi semua ), udah coba refund dan beli lagi tapi ga dapat, udah full semua flight ke amrik, padahal cuma kesalahan kecil tapi nanti bakal susah di amriknya.

gw sendiri binun sedih apa senang, kayanya 2-2nya deh,

sedihnya :

- ga bisa ke amrik ( banyak sih yg bisa dilakuin disana )

senengnya :

- bisa nonton anime ( CCS & wild striker, setidaknya gw ga bakal kelewatan 1 eps ),

- main internet -> RO ( gw udah minta supaya cablenya diayar lagi ),

- bisa jalan2 kemana2 ( ada mobil nganggur di garasi ),

- bisa bermales2an ( tidur sepanjang hari )

kaya segitu dulu aja, binun mau isi apalagi :)

US!!! here i go!!!

Music : mititle - Utaibito Hane ( Wild Striker Ed )

Akhirnya tanggal 25 juga, nanti jam 3 gw berangkat ke US, sebetulnya klo dipikir2 ngapain juga harus kesana cuma buat hadirin graduation daynya kk gw. hari h-nya sendiri masih tanggal 29 nanti, abis graduationnya gw binun, mau ngapain, dd sama bokap pulang tanggal 3 sept karena dd gw tgl 6 udah masuk, klo gw katanya sih dibookingin tanggal 15-nya, karena gw bakal kul kesana jadi lihat2 dulu suasananya enak ga disana. ( klo ga suka kul di ind aja )

les TBI-nya udah selesai, tinggal tunggu ambil sertifikatnya 2 minggu lagi, sama sekarang masih nungguin hasil tes TOEL-nya. ( mustinya 6 september dan moga2 lebih dari 500 )

apply ke college udah keterima, tinggal tunggu hasil TOEFL aja, kalau TOEFLnya udah sampai ke collegenya baru gw terima i20. dan sampai sekarang juga gw binun mau ambil major apa ga ada kepikiran.

Soal anime manga memang masih ngikutin, tapi udah ga terlalu antusias, anime aja udah jarang beli, kalau beli plg2 sedikit judulnya, manga juga udah kurang minatnya, beberapa judul udah ketinggalan belinya, mungkin gara2 udah ada mangascansnya jadi males belinya. d/l juga jadi males sejak cablenya diputus gara2 belum bayar, tapi utk hal2 tertentu kepaksa harus pakai dialup.

Soal RO, gw ga mainin lagi sejak cablenya down, mau main sih tapi sayang kalau pakai dial up jadi males mainnya. ngomong2 RO udah ada info ep6, berarti patchnya udah ga lama lagi, soalnya infonya udah ada di websitenya. ep6 berarti ada supernovice, marriage sama kota baru yaitu gonryu sama amatsu. sayang gw ga bisa main lagi karena mau kul keluar, kalau masih bisa plg lama sampai bulan desember, sesudahnya bye2 selama 4-5 tahun. ( artinya charaku udah kehapus )

Buat hari2 sebelumnya dimana ada kosong banyak di blog, gw ga ngapa2in, kerjanya cuma males2an dirumah, nonton tv, makan, tidur, dst. segini aja deh, ntar gw lanjutin lagi klo udah sampai di us, bakal gw isi tiap hari :)

mau diisi apa ya

Udah seminggu lebih gw ga main internet ( dengan nyaman ), bt ga bisa ngapa2in, kerjaannya jadi nonton aja setiap malam.

Sebetulnya gw binun mau ngisi apa, soalnya sehari2 sama aja kegiatannya, itu2 aja trus, cuma minus internet aja. Jadi hampa kalau ga ada internet.

Les TBI-nya minggu depan terakhir, udah mau selesai akhirnya, udah mulai ngebosanin soalnya,tiap hari kerjaannya hampir sama/ monoton atau mungkin aja berhubung gw udah ambil tes TOEFL-nya.

Sama tgl 25 nanti berangkat ke US, graduationnya sendiri masih tgl 29, abis itu gw kayanya bakal stay lama disana, dd sama bokap pulang dulu karena dd gw udah masuk tgl 6. Kalau gw sendiri mungkin sampai pertengahan september, lihat2 collegenya sama jalan2 disana.

ada apa dengan internetku

Aaa..... pantes aja, udah dari hari senin kemarin ga bisa konek ke internet. Semula gw curiga modem gw error, pas hari ini gw cek ternyata belum bayar tagihannya. Udah susah2 install ulang modemnya dan ternyata ga bisa juga, kecurigaan gw mulai muncul, karena LED modem menunjukan registration mode -> attempting to connect with the ISP, intinya ISP-nya ga respon terhapa modemku alias ga kirim data ke modemku. Kalaua gitu udah jelas permasalahannya -> ISP ngeblok, alias belum bayar tagihannya. Kepaksa deh balik ke dialup neh, daripada ga bisa online, dan sayangnya gw ga bisa berlama2.

Anyway gw ada rencana ambil kelas yg general english class di TBI abis TOEFL preparationnya class-nya selesai. Sama soal TOEFL kayanya bakal rendah nilainya, soalnya essay gw kayanya banyak yang salah. Baru tadi dapat lesson yg ngejelasin essaynya, padahal gw udah ambill minggu lalu. Maunya sih kalau bisa gw ambil lagi tes TOEFL-nya.

BT nih ga bisa ngapa2in lagi, kecuali nontonin anime yg gw beli, udah gitu ada cd yg ga jalan lagi, jadi bikin tambah bt aja. Mau d/l manga males karena koneksinya pakai dialup yg notabene lambat, mau d/l lagu lagi ga kepikiran sukanya apa, mau nonton sekarang TV-nya lagi dipakai nonton, mau tidur males juga. Dah ah kelamaan mikir mau nulis apa jadi bt ntar, udahan dulu.

akhirnya sempat isi lagi, saking asiknya nge-bot, sama harus ngurus2 urusan kuliah jadi ga sempat terus ngisi.

Udah juga tes TOEL-nya kemarin korbanin les TBI-nya, jumat kemarin di menara imperium lantai 28, tempatnya ga gede2 banget cuma terdiri beberapa ruangan aja, waktu kesana sih lumayan ramai, kebetulan yang ambil jam 11 cuma gw aja, gw kirain yang ngawasin orang luar ehh ternyata orang indo juga, lumayan juga sih soal2nya ada yang susah ada juga yang gampang, yg paling mudah aku bilang bagian readingnya, structure sama listening lumayan lah, sedangkan terakhir writing essay yg agak susah, topicnya susah kalau aku bilang.

modKore-nya sampai saat ini berjalan lancar2 aja, udah berjasa menaikan 10 lvl monknya. Lumayan dropnya akhir2 ini (setelah lvlnya 7), beberapa buckler slot dan silkrobe slot sama batu2an. Sampai saat ini gw masih nyaman bot di kobold, selain dropnya yang lumayan, spawnnya pun juga ga lama2 amat, jadi koboldnyakebagian, ga kaya di tempat2 lain dimana knight merajalela dengan provokenya. Rencananya kalau masih bisa sampai lvl 75 disini terus lalu pindah, harus cari tempat yg expnya lumayan sama ga crowded knight.

Abis itu aku dikasih Western Grace, topi drop dari vagabond wolf. Kebetulan waktu itu lagi incar boss kecil, seperti angeling & ghostring di poring land, vagabond di hutan payon, goblin leader di daerah prontera, eclipse sama toad juga di daerah prontera, sama terakhir jalan2 di labirin dimana boss2 kecil ada juga disini dan tentunya Baphomet (ga dilawan, cuma lihat aja). Dan waktu lawan Vagabond di payon drop topi, sebetulnya yg bunuh bukan aku, tetapi dikasih topinya ke aku.

Sama juga aku delete Alchemistku, udah salah stat sih jadi ga bisa apa2, bikin baru lagi dan sekarang masih merchant lvl 42, rencananya mau jadiin BS aja, soalnya keren bisa tempa senjata, sedangkan alchemist kalau buat pot tidak permanen seperti senjata -dimana hanya sekali pakai saja. Sebetulnya mau juga sih jadi alchemist lagi, udah tahu stat sama skillnya jadi ga salah lagi.

Kemarin sempat ke m2m, gw lumayan banyak beli anime -> midori no hibi semuanya di shinsaga, sama banyak judul di butik2000, kaya planetess (semuanya), ragnarok animation vol 4, kaleidostar 1st vol 7 sama 2nd vol 1. Masih semua belum dapat sih kaya Full Metal Alchemist vol 6-10 yg minggu depan baru ada barangnya, sekalian sana mau beli dvd.

aaaa udah lama nga ngisi ini blog nih, saking sibuknya akhir2 ini mulai dari les inggris di TBI, persiapan ambil tes TOEFL, application buat ke Collumbus College, sampai main RO di malam hari disertai dengan nonton TV (begadang).

yup, gw bakal kuliah keluar, tepatnya ke US di daerah Ohio, that's why now i'm taking english course at TBI, ambil kelas buat persiapan TOEFL intensif selama 5 minggu, untuk tes TOEFL-nya sendiri gw akan ambil jumat ini 6 agustus 2004 jam 11:00, berhubung pendaftaranya ke college terakhir tanggal 15 september, jadi gw harus ambil TOEFL minggu2 ini juga, solanya hasilnya baru akan keluar 4 minggu untuk paper based TOEFL dan 2 minggu untuk computer based.

sekarang sih gw masih ikut lesnya di TBI masuk mingu ke-3, sayang soalnya udah bayar mahal ( kira2 100k tiap kali ketemu ). so far so good, ada pelajaran yang susah ada juga yang mudah, sejauh ini yang paling sulit aku bilang sih di bagian structure ( termaksud grammar ) sama dikit2 di buat essay. sayangnya gw harus udah ambil TOEFL-nya sebelum lesnya selesai, setidaknya gw udah punya gambaran kaya gimana nanti tesnya.

terakhir soal kuliah, gw masih binun mau ambil major apa nih, pikiran gw ga bisa mikir kalau disuruh pilih jurusan, aaa pusing pusing deh mikirinnya........ time is ticking down!!!! musti milih nih secepatnya mau masuk jurusan mana.

soal RO, gw lagi kere nih, 5 saint robe dan pecah semua , ilang 20 jt zenny gara2 itu. untuk sementara gw ga berani tempa lagi deh, sebetulnya ga miskin2 benar sih, masih sisa 9 jutaan kalau dihitung2 semua barang kejual. ( nimbun barang di cart, beli murah en jual mahal )anyway kayanya udah gw kasih tahu di post2 gw yg dulu, dancer dihapus en bikin monk, kebetulan monknya dah jadi sekarang lvl 64/34, lumayan lo monk keren, skillnya keren2, gw sendiri sih dah bisa keluarin ashura tapi cuma lvl 1, berhubung gw ambil type combo spirit jadi ashura ga usah max, skill lain yg gw suka itu finger offensive ( mirip2 soul strike ) sama yg pasti combonya donk: triflecta blow -> quadruple blow -> way of the dragon -> ashura strike.ngomong2 soal RO sendiri, gw jadi pakai bot juga nih pakai modKoreHybrid, males juga kalau dimainin sendiri terus menerus jadi bt udah gitu harus rebutan lagi kalau hunt, lumayan sejak pakai bot udah naik 4 lvl terhitung hari sabtu kemarin, soalnya gw sendiri masih buta soal bot juga, harus sering kotak-katik confignya.

mau ngomong apalagi yah, kayanya ga ada deh, iseng aja ah post gambar monkku

monknya aku di daerah comodo
