there's so much i've not yet seen in this big big world. I hope someday i will really get to see them :)

tentang perasaan

Nak, perasaan itu tidak sesederhana satu tambah satu sama dengan dua. Bahkan ketika perasaan itu sudah jelas bagai bintang di langit, gemerlap indah tak terkira, tetap saja dia bukan rumus matematika. Perasaan adalah perasaan, meski secuil, walau setitik hitam di tengah lapangan putih luas, dia bisa membuat seluruh tubuh jadi sakit, kehilangan selera makan, kehilangan semangat. Hebat sekali benda bernama perasaan itu

The Hunger Games-The Tributes!

The Hunger Games is a game of fight to the death, held by Capitol. Every 12 districts in Panem should send 2 tributes, one boy and one girl, to participate in the Games. Over 24 tributes played, only one could survive and be the victor of the Games. For most of the people, especially boys and girls between 12-18 years olds, the Games, particularly the Selection of Tributes (called "the Reaping") is a horrible nightmare. If your name came out of the reaping ball, it means you only have few days left to live, unless you're ready for this day and have otstanding survival skills and strong killer instict. That's why Primrose Everdeen, a 12 years old from district 12, who have none of the abilities, very scared of the reaping. and the odds are not in her favor. Her name came out. While she walked up to stage with trembling, her sister, Katniss, shouted "I volunteer as tribute!"


Here, the deadly adventure of Katniss Everdeen began. She meets other 23 tributes, and fight for dear life ad Primrose's sake. 


District 1
is the district of luxury, where people there named their kids with weird names. From district 1, there are Marvel and Glimmer. They are courageous, and ready for the Games. Some of the districts are richer than other. 1,2,4 are the most powerful district and the victor of Hunger Games usually come from these districts. Therefore Marvel and Glimmer are very confident of winning the Games. as a weapon, Marvel carried spear and Glimmer chose bow and arrows, despite the fact she's not handy with it. They died with horrific end, especially Glimmer. She's stung by a nestfull of tracker-jacker wasps, and died with terrible lumps and oozing pus all over her body. Marvel, well he died shot by Katniss' arrow right after he threw a spear to Rue, which also ended her. 


Disrict 2
is the district of Masonry, where people raised their kids to be victors of the Games. Kids from district 2 are killing machines, so killer-minded that they have they own cruel ways to finish the others at the Games. There's Cato, a strong-builded young man who rage around and bully the other tributes, well except for his Career packs (tributes from 1,2,4). he's so intimidating and harsh. i personally loath his outrageousity, but in the movie he's kinda good-looking :p. Ha carried a sword and several blades, and very skilled at it. And there's Clove, with her knive-throwing skill as lethal as Cato. They both are favorited to be the victor, but they turned out died horribly. Clove, her skull was cracked by Thresh (tribute from 11), and Cato, i think his end is the most horrific of all. He was chased and chewed to death by a pack of Wolf-like creatures, whose eyes resembles other tributes. With his dead, only Peeta and Katniss left in the arena.


District 3
is the district of technology. the male tribute joined the career tributes and helped them setting out a booby trap for their supplies. he died in Cato's hand after his trap is exploded by Katniss.


District 4 
is the district of fishing. no remarkable tributes


District 5
is the district of .... (i forget). Here comes Foxface (not real name), a clever tribute. she's sneaky and always very toughtful of her move. and because she's outsmarted most of other tributes, she's able to make it into the big 4 tributes left (Katniss, Peeta, Cato, her). She died after swallowing some nightlocks, very poisonous berries, while stalking Peeta in the woods. 


District 6
is the district of transportation. no remarkable tributes


District 7
is the district of lumber and paper. no remarkable tributes


District 8
is the district of textiles. no remarkable tributes.


District 9
is the district of grain. no remarkable tributes


District 10
is the district of livestock. no remarkable tributes


District 11
is the district of agriculture. There's Thresh, a big strong-build young man, and Rue, a tiny, smart, and light-footed girl. she's the smallest and youngest tribute in the Games, yet she made it so far because she can jump   amongst trees and very difficult to catch. Being from 11, she also has useful knowledge about edible plants in the woods. She allied with Katniss after saved her life, and teach her a mockingjay melody so that they wont lost each other. She died of a spear thrown by Marvel, but Katniss made her dead unfergettable by decorating her body with flowers and sing her a beautiful lullaby. Thresh also survived till the big 5, he also helped Katniss when she was attacked by Clove. He cracked Clove's head, and by that he paid his debt to Katniss for Rue's sake. It doesnt clear how he died, most likely killed by Cato.


District 12
is the district of Coal-mining. Katniss Everdeen, the girl on fire, comes from 12 volunteering for her sister. She is very skilled in archery, and although at first didnt got bow and arrows, she took Glimmer's. She's also the survivor type, she can hunt and fish and forage, so that she doesnt have any problem with food in the arena. She can climb high, and that was what saved her from the carees tributes because they're so big they cant climb. Meanwhile, Peeta is a kind-hearted guy who happened to be in love with Katniss for years, but never told her (even never talked to her) until the Games. He's strong, can lift heavy loads, but not good at hunting. He also very good in painting and camouflage, because of his duty in his family's bakery painting cakes. He packed up with the career tributes at first, because he wanted to protect Katniss (how sweet of him), and is slashed in the leg by Cato. Katniss saved him, and they both come out as victor of the 74th Annual Hunger Games after pretending to commit suicide together by swallowing nightlock.

may the odds be ever in your favor

merasa kenal kata-kata judulnya? yap, itu adalah quotation yang digaungkan di seluruh penjuru Panem saat musim "Hunger Games" dimulai. omong2, pada tau hunger games ga?? yaa masa gatau, ga gauuul :3


The Hunger Games adalah novel trilogi karangan Suzanne Collins. Awalnya aku dikasitau Mona trilogi ini pas lagi cucimata di gramed GI, katanya tentang permainan yang bunuh-bunuhan sampai tinggal 1 orang gitu. g tertarik sih, tapi pas filmnya keluar 23 maret lalu, aku pun jadi ingin nonton dan akhirnya download. sambil nungguin download, Reza, temenku yang lain ngasih sebuah film yang kata dia "mirip2 Hunger Games", judulnya "Battle Royale" film Jepang. tapi pas kutonton, awalnya aja udah KEJAM banget. bunuh-bunuhan ga disensor malah dizoom. orang diledakkan ampe berdarah-darah. dilempar pisau trus nancep di kepala. naudzubillah deh, belum 15 menit uda kuclose aja filmnya dan kuhapus. hii. apalagi baru2 ini aku nonton film lain berjudul "The Raid", film Indonesia, yang Masya Allah menurutku gada isinya, cuman pukul-pukulan, tembak-tembakan, dan bacok-bacokan sepanjang film. tapi kata orang keren, kataku keren apanya, merusak mata dan hati banget. tapi yaudahlah ya, opini kan tak bisa dipaksakan :)


anyway, lanjut cerita hunger games. setelah kutonton, ternyata filmnya oke kok, bunuh-bunuhannya ga diliatin vulgar kaya Battle Royale, trus Katnissnya cantik dan aktingnya keren :D. Jadilah aku download sekalian bukunya. Ini adalah film adaptasi buku pertama yang kutonton sebelum baca bukunya. Karena biasanya aku lebih suka baca buku daripada nonton. dan ternyata feelnya beda guyz. seringkali aku sedikit kecewa kalo nonton film adaptasi karena ga sesuai bayangan. tapi kalo nonton dulu, belum ada bayangan apa-apa, jadinya enjoy. trus aku baru baca bukunya, dan ya ampun, setelah baca bukunya aku jadi nonton ulang-ulang :3


trilogi ini terdiri dari 3 buku:
1. The Hunger Games 
Bercerita tentang Amerika masa depan, Panem. terdiri dari 13 distrik, yang dikuasai ibukota otoriter, Capitol. Distrik 13 memberontak. Akhirnya dibumihanguskan oleh Capitol. Sebagai pengingat keadidayaan Capitol, setiap tahun diadakan Hunger Games, di mana tiap 12 distrik harus ngirim perwakilan cewek-cowok muda buat bertarung sampai mati di arena yang dikontrol sepenuhnya oleh Capitol. Katniss mewakili distrik 12, menggantikan adeknya. Katniss ditemani Peeta, cowok yang ternyata dulu menyelamatkan hidupnya dan suka banget sama Katniss. sayangnya ya salah satu dari mereka harus mati, kan Hunger Games. Tapi akhirnya dua-duanya bisa lolos, dengan trik pura2 mau bunuh diri berdua. Tapi hal iniah yang membuat Katniss diburu sama Presiden, karena dianggap memberontak dengan tidak mau mematuhi peratura Games, dan ternyata dia menginspirasi distrik2 lainnya untuk memberontak juga.
Yang seru banget dari buku ini adalah Gamesnya sendiri. bagaimana Katniss bisa survive, diceritakan dengan keren. makanya aku jadi tonton berkali-kali.
The Hunger Games' Cast: from left: Clove[district2] (yes, from "Orphan"), Marvel[district1], Foxface[district5], Thresh[district11], Glimmer[district1], Cato[district2], Rue[district11], Peeta[district12], Katniss[district12], Gale


2. Catching Fire
Lanjutannya ini, mulai deh cerita agak menggelap. Katniss diancam sama Presiden, bakal ngebunuh orang2 yang dia cintai karena dia menginspirasi pemberontakan. Kemudian tetep ada Hunger Games, dan ini tahun spesial gitu, jadinya pesertanya diambil dari juara-juara Games lalu yang masih hidup dari masing-masing distrik. Katniss, satu-satunya cewek juara dari distrik 12, maju lagi, padahal dia ingin melupakan segala yang sudah terjadi di Games tahun lalu. Peeta pun volunteer ikut untuk melindungi Katniss. Padahal kalo dia ikut, lagi-lagi salah satunya harus mati. tapi katniss uda bertekad dialah yang akan mati, biar Peeta aja yang menang. Namun di tengah-tengah Games, Katniss diculik oleh para pemberontak, dan distrik 12 dihancurkan oleh Capitol sampai ga ada yang tersisa, dan Peeta dibawa ke Capitol


3. Mockingjay
Intinya sih, cerita ini menggambarkan bagaimana Katniss berusaha menghancurkan Presiden yang sudah menghancurkan hidupnya dan menyiksa Peeta. Ceritanya serius banget, tentang pemberontakan yang semakin memanas. Sekarang, semua distrik bersatu memberontak melawan Capitol. Pada akhirnya, Katniss membuat keputusan yang tidak terduga, dan dia harus mengalami kehilangan yang besar. 


Overall, cerita trilogi ini fokusnya sebenarnya bukan di Hunger Games, tapi lebih kepada pemberontakan yang dilakukan oleh orang tertindas kepada penguasanya. Keren deh, karena jarang kan ada yang mengangkat tema ini. Ceritanya mengupas habis emosi dan harkat martabat manusia, ga cuma cerita roman abal-abal. Feel yang dipaparkan dapet banget, meskipun ceritanya kelam dan agak berat (kalo dibandingin Harry Potter sih haha), tapi worth it banget dibaca :)


Tunggu film keduanya, Catching Fire (gatau bakal ada apa ga)
oiya, soundtracknya dinyanyiin sama Taylor Swift. Judulnya Safe and Sound. Enak banget! video klipnya juga dapet banget feel Hunger Gamesnya, gloomy-gloomy gimana getoo :D


PS. aku terkesan banget sama Games dan para pemainnya yang pertama (di foto atas), jadi rencananya mau nulis tentang mereka tersendiri :)

lagu wajib karaokean

kemaren, alhamdulillah saya berkesempatan kumpul-kumpul dengan teman-teman Nozo Jakarta. rencananya mau foto studio. dan thanks buat jarkoman yang dibuat Elsa, yang dateng RAME BANGET. ga pernah sebelumnya nozo jakarta ngumpul sebanyak itu, kali ini ditambah temen2 yang ga dari UI (UNJ, IPB, dll) ada 30 an lebih :O

Kita pun foto-foto. fotonya di Detos, dan murah banget. 3rb udah dapet foto 4R sama softcopy filenya dalam CD. mantap kan? kita pun shoot berkali-kali, dan jatuhnya masing2 orang 7500 uda dapet 2 foto bahkan boleh lebih haha.




terus habis itu galau dan diem2 gajelas mau kemana, akhirnya makan di foodcourt. 

Terus Mona mencetuskan ide: Karaoke

gue suka karaokean sama temen-temen, apalagi kali ini ada sebanyak ini. tapi karena saat itu uda jam 10 an dan ga semua pingin karaoke, akhirnya yang mau ada 12 orang. tetep aja, itu rame loooh. kita pun karaokean di Detos, nama tempatnya Venus.

Karaokean rame-rame tentunya ada enaknya dan nggak enaknya. Enaknya, ya rame. terus murah. ga enaknya, setiap orang kan milih lagu sendiri. syukur2 lagunya terkenal jadi semua bisa ikut nyanyi. tapi ada yang lagunya jadul, ada yang lagunya ga terkenal, jadi kita cuma diem aja sementara si pemilih lagu nyanyi. kalo uda garing.....NEXT SONG aja deh :D

gue pun menyimpulkan, lagu yang asik banget buat dikaraokein sama temen-temen lo:
1. On The Floor - Jennifer Lopez
Ini lah juaranya!! semua pasti tau lagu ini dan beneran asik banget pas nyanyinya, kan lagu dance gitu, jadi semua bangun dan bersemangat teriak: La~lalalala lalalalalalalalala~ Tonight we gon' be it on the floor!

2. Rolling in The Deep - Adele
yoa, ga perlu diragukan, lagu adele yang satu ini cocok banget dinyanyiin bareng2, apalagi bagian chorusnya ^^

3. Cari Jodoh - Wali
Semua pasti taulah lagu ini. dan karena liriknya yang cukup lucu, jadi seru bisa nunjuk-nunjuk. Tolong XXX, yang tak laku-laku wooooo.

4. Mobil Balap - Naif
karena ada Jenggo (nama temen gue) di rombongan kali ini, ia pun memilih lagu ini. awalnya agak zonk karena pada gatau, tapi as the song goes, lagunya asik. nadanya datar-datar tapi seru, ada ceritanya lagi.

5. Price Tag - Jessie J.
Karena smua pasti tau dan sering denger, dan beatnya cukup asik, lagu ini masuk list lagu wajib gue hehe.

ada yang mau nambahin? :)
