The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya
by Petra on Aug.26, 2006, under Movies
The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya (涼宮ãƒãƒ«ãƒ’ã®æ†‚鬱, Suzumiya Haruhi no YÅ«utsu). Another great anime series I’ve watched recently! When I bought a second hand hard-disk from my friend, he decided to give me a bonus packed in the hard-disk data. Well, I told him to give me mangascan I would like to read. But then he offered me an anime series which he thought it was so great series. Of course, as a friend, I couldn’t reject his offer. Now, I would have been regretting myself if I had rejected early.
My Poor Monitor
by Petra on Aug.23, 2006, under My PC
When we from the table tennis club are going to participate in units’ open house (OHU) at ITB, we planned to have a ping pong simulator. I offered my monitor for the simulator. That was a hell effort carrying my monitor from my room to the open house site at midnight. (FYI, my monitor is a flat 17″ CRT), not mentioning that I had just been tired from preparing the decoration.
As soon as I arrived at the site, I tried to set the simulator. But there was no electricity power at our stand. Because of that we went to other stand to try it again with their electricity. Okay, there was a success trial. And then I came back to our stand and sleep there until the morning.
The early of morning, I called one of the organizers to request the electricity at the club’s stand. Not long after it, they granted it. I quickly set up the simulator. At first, I thought I saw the cable extension’s indicator lamp was twinkling. I really didn’t have time to notice it because we had not much time before the opening. And then what happened? White smoke suddenly came out from my monitor. What a bad day….
But now, my monitor is working normally after I brought it to a monitor expert. It cost 200K IDR

LIBERTÉ!

Independent. That’s it what we celebrate this day. Independence Day of Indonesia.
But I really want to write a short description about independent of myself. I realize that the term independent is different from a person to another. Because of that, the term independent is really not independent, because the term itself depends on how people define it. One says being independent is doing what you like for no one could ever do opposing it. Respectively, it’s true. If someone says that it’s wrong then he/she would trespass the independency of the person who say that and that couldn’t be called as being independent itself by that person. That would do the same to the person who says it’s wrong if he/she has the exact definition of the term.
Recursive Acronym

Just thinking that nowadays, people really like to make recursive acronym. Maybe it’s just for fun. Well, I’m just lovin’ it too
(This is really funny, you know!)

Akhir-akhir ini punggung suka serasa ngilu. Sebenarnya bukan akhir-akhir ini juga. Sudah agak lama, sepertinya. Setelah sekian lama itu akhirnya mencoba mengecek ke dokter. Tadi ngecek ke dokter umum di BMG (Bumi Medika Ganesha), dokternya bilang ada kemungkinan masalahnya di tulang punggung. Untuk sementara dikasih obat penghilang rasa sakit. Kalau sakit berlanjut langsung ke rontgen. Aduh ngilunya gak ketulungan, euy!
(sepertinya ada keharusan ngurusin badan nih, *sigh*)

Menurut dia, tiga alasan yang meÂlaÂtarÂÂbelakangi upaya pelaporan ini, perÂtaÂma, beberapa waktu lalu Nadine terÂlihat di media tengah asyik berÂcengÂkraÂma dengan Miss Israel, AnasÂtacia Entin saat acara lelang barang (RM 16/7). “Itu kan mencederai umat IsÂlam InÂdonesia yang kini tengah meÂnentang agresi militer Israel kepada LeÂbanon,†tanÂdas Syarifah.
Entah apa yang mereka pikirkan pada saat itu. Hanya karena perasaan banyak orang yang belum jelas maksudnya apa, seorang duta Indonesia tidak boleh menunjukkan keramahan khas negaranya kepada negara lain. Tidak kah mereka bisa berpikir lebih dini bahwa segala bentuk keramahan belum tentu menunjukkan dukungan.
