L’arriviste Excentrique

[This is in English, bear with it] MAHASISWA: an Indonesian word used to refer to college/university students. The word siswa, meaning 'student', completed by the prefix maha-, which refers to something great or grand. MAHASISWA: the agent of change, the guardian of values, the iron stock of the nation. What's will all the overglorification of MAHASISWA?

I GREATLY recommend trying out the game first before reading this entry, because it will be an immense spoiler, and it will almost certainly ruin the experience of your gameplay. Loved's creator, Alexander Ocias, wanted to make something "confrontational", which will "engage players to give thought to what they are doing-- both in and out of game". Then, please leave a comment here (in Indonesian or English, I don't mind) because I'm interested in others' interpretations of this.

Well, yeah, another entry in English, which means this is mostly trash that I wrote to vent out my dull experiences :D A few days ago, my sister and I made a visit to a graphologist. You might ask, in a more polite or rude manner, "What the hell is a graphologist?" Well, more or less, a graphologist evaluates your handwriting to see the kind of person you are... out of curiosity, my sister and I decided to visit one! And the final verdict...

Ode to Theodore For: no one in particular

In small text was the author's name: Jhumpa Lahiri, and in smaller, the title: Interpreter of Maladies. Containing nine stories, all of them related to India-- be it in a modern setting like Sexy or directly related to past historical events like When Mr. Pirzada Came to Dine. (Beware: this review might contain spoilers!)

Here is an English entry that actually isn't junk! One review of betang.COM, coming up right here. Betang.COM is, as the tagline in the header states, "Some kind One of Central Borneo's online portal". Actually, it can be interpreted as both, but the tagline itself is that (instead of "Central Borneo's online portal" plain out) as to not claim itself as the only portal of it's kind. Okay, enough of my incessant rambling. What is betang.COM all about?

I'm beginning to notice a certain pattern in my entries. The ones in English tend to be more junkish and trivial compared to the ones in Indonesian, but they have such a frivolous writing style. Well, putting that aside, here is another junk entry, just for laughs. You see, I receive many spam messages everyday in my email, and for some reason most of them are for Viagra and other such 'medications'. Some of them have such witty, and poetic email subjects!

Why won't you let me be?

Dear Sister...
