All my life I never know why I'm a kind of person who just don't know how to keep a journal and post on said journal daily. I just don't. It's either I'm too lazy, or my life is just that boring, it's not worth telling or remembering.

Oh whatever XD

On the other hand, my baby will be 4 months old in 2 days :D She's still a bit thin and small for her age D: I hope she gains more weight and stays healthy. I can't help but worry about her lots of times. As you might know, this is my very first time of keeping pet. I just want the best for her...



She's pretty, no ♥? I can only take pictures using my cellphone, and it doesn't do her justice, seriously.

Oh...

KPop fandom doesn't really interest me lately, so I'm going back to downloading Arashi variety shows and LOL-ing over their ghei dorkiness. I love them. So much.

Mom just called me about 2 hours ago. Apparently Dad got admitted into a hospital. Mom told me that yesterday, after attending a wedding, he felt dizzy and had a headache too. A friend of his suggested that he go to the hospital for a check up. The CT-scan showed that there's some kind of clot slowing the blood flow to his brain, IDK how bad though. It was suggested that he stays in hospital for a while and takes a week off his work.

When mom called earlier, dad spoke to me too. He sounds okay, but I'm still worried. These past months he had been extremely busy. He works at the hospital from 8am to 3am, then he take about an hour of sleep before going to work in his own clinic again until about 9.30pm (oh, he's a dermatologist, BTW). I kept telling him to cut off the amount of his patients in his clinic and get more rest, but he always says that it's okay. IDK about his eating habit but I think it's not that healthy either.

I hope he gets better soon ;_____;

So many things to talk about, so many feelings at once. I sort of neglected fandom lately, mostly because of this computer business and because LJ decided to be extremely slow on me, although I have to say that I was kind of bored with fandom too. But now that I have a new computer, I hope I can post more and catching up with what I've missed.

☆ I can has a DW? :3

matcha@DW


Those in my flist, if I haven't added you there, please give me your username ♥ I'm really weak against this bandwagon thing, seriously. I'm still experimenting with layouts, so don't be surprised if I change them often :3

☆ I don't know if you're aware, but I was ranting in Indonesian in my last post. It's because I've been denied membership and banned from an Arashi subbing community. The community also banned people from my country and other countries that have been caught selling subbed videos. I can't blame them at all. They deserve some respect after all those hard works and the people who sell subbed videos have given none of that to them. I'm just sad that I was put in a same position with those fake fans. It's like being labeled as a thief because you live next door to one. I'm aware of this business going on in my country, but I know I can't do anything at all, except not doing it and not buying them. I'm afraid that other subbing teams will do the same sooner or later, because my country is definitely in the black list. If that happens then how will we get our resources?

☆ I HAVE A NEW COMPUTER!!! It's prettier-looking (black, unlike my previous green one XD), faster, has better everything, has (much) bigger HD space, and way more more awesome ♥♥♥ I haven't named it, and I don't plan to XD It's too awesome for lame names :3 *cuddles* I'm so happy that I can use Photoshop more freely now. Everytime I used Photoshop in my old computer, it always lagged so badly.

☆ "IT'S YOU" MV!!! *DIES A THOUSAND TIMES* Cut for those who haven't seen it. Though I doubt there's any XD )

I...have no comment for the rest. They look so good. I love this MV more than "SORRY SORRY", that's for show. It's the colors. So pretty...♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ Oh, and I prefer the unofficial (leaked) part than the official. Those lights in the official version annoys me so much (>.<)

☆ Yesterday, I went to watch "WATCHMEN" in the teather. Now I know why everyone was so in love with it. Cut because someone will throttle me if I don't. Not that she'd dare to :3 )

I hope I didn't miss anything :3 It feels so good to be able to post to LJ again *hugs you lovelies*

What the FUCK?! - Yutaka Mikoto [killaba
[info]skadihelias
Kenapa banyak orang yang ngerekam acara TV idolanya dan menyebarkannya di internet? Kenapa banyak grup2 subber yang rela ngabisin waktu mereka ngesub video2 idolanya? Kenapa orang2 yang udah ngabisin waktu dan duit banyak buat merekam, ngesub, dan mengupload video2 idola mereka itu gak pernah minta balasan apapun selain satu kata/komentar terima kasih dan permintaan sederhana untuk mengikuti peraturan mereka yang sebenarnya mudah banget: jangan diupload ke streaming sites (YouTube, Crunchyroll, Veoh, dll), jangan di-hotlink, jangan mengepos ulang link dl-an di tempat lain, dan jangan menjual sub?

Jawaban dari pertanyaan itu sederhana aja, karena mereka suka dengan idola mereka, karena mereka ingin membagi rasa suka tersebut dengan orang lain, dan karena mereka ingin fans2 lain di seluruh dunia yang tidak memiliki akses atau memiliki kendala bahasa bisa ikut menikmati tayangan2 televisi tentang idola mereka itu.

Selama ini aku banyak liat hal2 seperti ini di fandom2 Indonesia. Orang2 yang mengaku 'fans', mendownload video2 sub, lalu menjualnya ke fans2 yang lain. Padahal mereka itu ngorbanin apa sih? Mau ngaku kalo mereka dah ngorbanin banyak waktu buat download dan duit buat bayar internet? Plis deh, kalian download itu kan awalnya karena kalian tu 'fans' dan kalian suka sama idola2 itu? Kalian download buat kalian nikmati sendiri kan? Harga itu adalah harga yang harus kalian bayar buat menikmati video2 idola kalian yang nggak bisa kalian liat dan mengerti sendiri. Jauh lebih murah dari biaya naik transport ke Cina/Jepang/Korea plus biaya belajar bahasanya plus biaya hidup/listrik/TV di negara2 itu kalo kalian harus pergi ke sana untuk nonton sendiri kan? Apa hak kalian buat ngejual hasil kerjaan orang lain yang pengorbanannya jauh lebih banyak dari kalian? Mereka bisa aja ngejual hasil sub mereka ke kita, tapi nyatanya enggak kan? Mereka ngabisin banyak waktu dan tenaga buat ngesub video2 itu, kalian yang tinggal klik sana klik sini, nunggu donlotan yang ditinggal tidur juga bisa, berani bener kalian nikmatin duit yang sebenernya lebih berhak dinikmati subber2 itu.

Mungkin 'fans2' itu ngira kelakuan mereka ini gak ada akibatnya. Belum dua minggu yang lalu, aku ditendang keluar dan di-ban dari sebuah community subber di LJ. Aku baru tahu hari ini, waktu aku berniat buat download salah satu hasil sub grup tersebut. Gak cuma aku, tapi semua LJ user yang berasal dari negara2 yang diketahui dan terbukti pernah memperjual belikan hasil sub dari subber tersebut semua ditendang keluar dan di-ban. Aku gak nyalahin mereka. Mereka berhak buat marah karena 'fans2' itu sudah menghina kesungguhan mereka dalam mengerjakan sub dan membagi rasa suka mereka.

Puas kalian? Kami fans2 lain yang selama ini berusaha jujur dan menaati peraturan2 subber jadi harus ikut menanggung kerakusan kalian ini. Rasanya seperti dituduh sebagai maling cuma gara2 tetanggaan sama maling. Mungkin kalian pikir ini gak penting. "Halah, cuma satu subber juga. Kan masih ada subber2 lain." Silahkan aja kalian mikir gitu. Tapi ini gak menutup kemungkinan kalo subber2 lain juga bakal ngambil langkah yang sama karena jujur aja, udah banyak sekali subber yang ngomel2 di community/website mereka masing2 tentang leechers yang dengan cuek dan tanpa rasa bersalah menjual hasil kerja keras mereka.

Kalian mungkin bakal nyuekin post ini, atau gak mustahil juga kalian bakal ngetawain aku karena sudah bacot2 gak jelas di mata kalian. Terserah. Aku cuma ngungkapin fakta yang ada. Yang ngambil keputusan adalah kalian. Aku gak berharap banyak sih buat kalian (gak berharap sama sekali, malah). Tapi tolong, jangan panggil diri kalian sebagai 'fans' kalo ini yang kalian lakukan ke fans lain. Aku cuma bisa berharap subber2 yang lain gak mengambil langkah yang sekeras ini.

Buat temen2 yang lain, the true fans yang udah menyempatkan diri baca postingan ini. Thanks dan maaf sebesar2nya karena isinya gak bisa dibilang enak. Tolonglah kalian nggak mengikuti langkah2 'fans' itu. Fans2 dari sebuah fandom bisa dekat dengan satu sama lain karena kita di sini untuk tujuan yang sama. Kita di sini untuk 'menyukai' dan 'mendukung', bukan 'mengambil keuntungan'.



Oh, I'm so pissed right now. This is totally ruining my good mood after watching 'Watchmen' today. Rorschach is ♥♥♥♥♥

I will post and fangirl more about the film and Super Junior's new MV and also explain this rant tomorrow :D I'm tired and cramping (my second day of period, ugh) DX

I felt that I should make an obligatory last post using my old computer, because I'm buying a new one within the next week. Maybe you'd think I'm being ridiculous here. But this computer has been with me for the last (almost) five years, and no matter how much I complained about it, it actually has only broken down (to the point that I have to bring it to the professionals to sort it out) once, which was four days ago (in which the motherboard crashed and died). Mine is the toughest computer in my entire history of computers, really XD This computer is the first computer that is actually my own, only mine (my computers before had always been shared between the occupants of my house), so I feel kind of sad that I'll stop using it in a mere few days.

Me, getting overly sentimental over an old computer. [info]freedomthisway would be twitching on the floor, laughing, if she's with me at this time.

Okay, so the rest of this post will be done in bulletpoints. Because I'm scatter-brained like that.

☆ Today, 30 April 2009, is the 20th birthday of our dear Jang Wooyoung of 2PM!! HAPPY BIRTHDAY YOU CHEEKY, FAIL-Y AND TOTALLY RIDICULOUS BABY!!! ILUSM ♥♥♥♥♥ Be awesome(ly gay) and fail as always, please~ :3

Well, hello there, hotness~ Finally we see him again after such a long time. And looking better than ever too (except compared to Don't Don era because I'm biased like that XD). Sadly, this is just a CF. Oh well, better to see him a little than not seeing him at all :3 Also, I don't have anything to say about those pants (-_-) Although I rather like the ponytail :9

[info]skadihelias (8:27:10 AM): he looks good in long hair

[info]vv_lover (8:27:27 AM): You're biased.
[info]skadihelias (8:27:32 AM): indeed
[info]skadihelias (8:27:40 AM): but i don't really like donghae in long hair
[info]skadihelias (8:27:48 AM): so i doubt it's that much of a bias
[info]vv_lover (8:27:48 AM): ... Indeed.


Also, deciding not to take any part on the fandom drama involving Kibum. I'm ignoring those who criticize him, and also ignoring those who defend him. If he wants to appear, he'll appear and I'll flail over it. If he doesn't, then so be it. I will no longer sweating over and using my precious braincells over matters like this. I'm trying to regain my previous attitude and opinion over fandom.

☆ About a week ago, I went to a supermarket. There was this small pet corner in it. And I spent a few minutes standing in front of the glass cages, mentally squealing about OMG THOSE HAMSTERS ARE VERY CUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUTE!!!!! They're seriously tiny, curling up together on the corners of the cage. There was this particularly lively one who kept running here and there hyperactively. I want to graduate soon. And if I happen to work in another town and have to live by myself (again), I'm totally getting a pet hamster. Maybe taking care of animals will take that mean, uncaring part of me? Also, curing my slight phobia over practically all animals XD

To close this post. Have a picture. Oh baby, you're such a slut :3

Today is Indonesia's election day. Not presidential election, it's the election for parties that'll take the seats at People's Representative Council and Regional Representatives Council. I can't vote, because my ID is registered as a voter at my hometown, not in the town I currently live in. I think I'd be able to vote if I had done something previously, but IDK what to do.

The thing is, I know what party will get most seats out of this election. I really really REALLY hate that party. I think it just comprises of bunch of lunatic and violent materialistic dumbasses. They always do lavishes, over-the-top campaigns with cliche taglines, and of course it'll attract lots of people. Lots of Indonesians love lavishes campaigns :/ I really want to get my vote in just so it'll be less for this party and more on another party that I think fairly okay.

Oh whatever, I need to get this crankiness out of my system >:/

Donghae is my worst bias in the history of biases :3 )

I need more chapters from One Piece and Skip Beat ASAP >:/ The current arc of One Piece rocks so much. And Skip Beat is getting even more interesting (LOL, beagle's Reino).

Ugh, I have a headache, and my gums are acting up again. I'm going to take some medicine for my gums and go back to sleep for a little bit.

Oh, and my lovely f-list, if any of you are using the KiHae moodtheme from [info]fortuitism, could you send me the zip for that moodtheme? The link for zip file in the community has expired and I really want that moodtheme (T.T)

So last Friday I was really, really bored. And it was weekend. So I thought, "Hey, why don't I watch a K or J drama to spend time?". Then I went and rented Coffee Prince. And watch it all on marathon until Sunday (stopping just to go out buying food or going to toilet or taking a shower or sleeping). It was such a cute drama :3 Yoon Eunhye is very cute. She's not breathtakingly pretty or something like that, but she's really really cute. She looks much better in short hair than long hair (in Goong).

After I finished it, I watch The Nightmare Before Christmas (I love Jack Skellington ♥♥♥ I really really do) and Golden Compass (I also love Daniel Craig ♥♥♥ Too bad he didn't appear much in that movie). Finally I get to see Nightmare Before Christmas after wanting it for so long. I kind of addicted to that Halloween Land song (the one they played in the beginning of the movie) and I also love the song Jack sang in the Christmas Land (it's not helping that I kept laughing everytime he said, "What's this?!"). Golden Compass is...so-so. Although I love some of the cast members (Daniel Craig, Nicole Kidman, and the voice of Sir Ian McKellen) I'm not overly excited over the movie.

Then in Tuesday I realized that I haven't read through my flist since that Friday. Such a horrible LJ-er, me :P I only open LJ to check if a new subbed episode of Ryuusei no Kizuna had been released yet XD Man, I love Nino so much in that drama (WTF, I always love Nino so much).

Lastly, DRAGONS! I finally get the stone egg and two-colored egg X3 Please click on them m(-_-)m

[info]pittari just posted the HQ version (no annoying watermark and logo) of Super Junior M newest MV, 'ME'. If you're an SJM fan, just download it.

You know, I was in such a bad mood today. I get annoyed and pissed off pretty often, and pretty easy, just ask [info]freedomthisway, she knows best, but it's not very often that I feel such an overwhelming urge to just destroy something (or someone, for that matter) like I felt today. I felt like the whole world was conspiring to piss me off or something.

However, seeing Zhou Mi's smile in that MV made me feel like...I don't know, like there's nothing in this world that can make me happy other than that smile. Not even listening 'Haengbok', 'Way for Love', and 'Believe' on repeat could cure my bad mood today. But seeing this MV, I felt a lot better.



Thanks, Mi. You have such a wonderful smile.


Also, this might be too late (actually, 5 days late) but...



I might not as absorbed as I was a few months ago in your fandom, but you're still the most respectable boyband to me. You'll always have a special place in my heart, because you're the first Asian boyband that I fangirl upon. Stay hot and funny and silly forever!!!

I'm making this post from my friend's hot spot cafe. The connection is not really good (yet), but I love the place. I'm currently sitting at the second floor, in which the interior design is not that special. I totally love the first floor's setting tho. The concept of the place is dojo (you know, martial art Japanese training room). There are these booths with wooden floor and fusuma(paper and wood door?)-like separators. Totally lovely :3

Anyway, I had a chat with [info]conflate on Yahoo! yesterday. We were talking about Hae (obviously, we are biased like that) and KiHae (again, our first and foremost SuJu OTP)and Kibum.

Now, I'm quite aware that there is an unpleasant spread of Kibum hate in the fandom lately. I'm aware, but that doesn't mean I have to care about it, right? But as you can see, it's getting worse lately, to the point of ridiculous. Honestly, can't those people leave Kibum alone? It's true that Kibum doesn't have many activities with Super Junior lately (yes, I am unhappy about that too), but that doesn't mean he doesn't do anything for Super Junior. People keeps going on and on about how Kibum doesn't have any talent. Hello? We are talking about Asian boybands here. Most fans of Asian boybands wouldn't even care whether their idols have talents or not. I've seen less talent in an idol, for real.

I was baited to the fandom by Kibum and EHB. And I can still see people flailing and squeeing over him (including me, yes). And I believe there are still many many fans who are going to be baited by that blinding smile. So suck it up, haters. If you can't love, then leave the fandom.

KIBUM IS LOVE!!!

Last assignment done this early morning (I didn't sleep all night to finish it). Presentation done this afternoon (unfortunately, didn't end too well because in the end I had to (slightly) change my topic for my final thesis, but thesis registration is not until at least a month later).

I had slight tremors in my hands and some part of my body this morning, probably because I was too tired and drinked too much coffee (after not drinking coffee for probably one and a half two years). I went to sleep at 5 p.m. and just got up half an hour ago (missed 4 calls from my father even tho the phone was by my bedside (yeah, I'm that tired).

Will write that KyuMi later. Hopefully the muse won't leave me for good.
