It's 'Ingressa' XD just call her 'Ressa' for short...

yeah, if you need A LOT of luck, just contact her *kicked by sacchii*

@ Akira : Nooooooooo don't worry about that, just stay! I can convince you Mom if it's needed! =w=)/

@ Male : I hope that it's true, so that God will give the best for me *kicked*
Err, maybe at first we thought it as a 'curse', but hopefully it will turn out well...

About my luck, Akira had proved it, but I don't know if it'd apply to you too, Male-san xD Or maybe you're interested to give it a try? *stomped on*

Aargh! I'm sorry that I didn't pay attention to the notifications in my email - that there's (I mean, there're) some replies here X(

@Akira
oh, yeah, Ingressa - sometimes my fingers slipped when I typed the name

@Shrei
well, just have faith in it, then
Hmm, how should I try you? If you can take the luck outta some guys, then I'll contact you for sure

Have been a while since my last post here.. [or I indeed haven't post any reply here ' 'a]

Im still training for my grammar, well I can tell whether a sentence is grammatically correct or not but I still have difficulities to create a grammatically correct sentence xD

well at least my American lecturer still understand my essay :p

Oh I really have fun playing Blood right now~♥ [yea 3 page worthed her very much] and lately I found that I have another similarity with Blanka, not a fun fact of course [since when Blood has a beautiful memory like that?] but still its priceles although I dont wanna experience it again anytime soon ~

@Shrei: share me some of you luck please.. =w=/

@Psychephilia
Haha, it's fine, we're all learning to be better, rite?
I, too, have a problem with my grammar thanks to personal reasons, but it's fine unless we're talking with an English teacher here *shot*

Hmm, was it the '3 pages' part or the 'acting all newbie' stuff? *beheaded*

Woaa yea we dont have to think so deeply, no stain no gain~ xD *smacked*

Just as I thought
Yea, I've felt that too, and it's indeed somewhat annoying. Just ignore them, then, just like what I did *when?* *triple shot*

Damn, it's kinda mean to say that, you know? People smart in their own way, I believe.

Hmm, by the way, I kinda miss Sacchi for reasons unknown

@Akira
yay! So it's not only me who miss her! XDD

omgwtf?! Geez, perhaps you have to tell them before they'll get a real problem in the future Once again, we have to increase our vocab - yea, vocab is the most important thing in literature! Hell with grammar! *kicked*

@ben : because papa is so cute that everyone will miss her somehow *kicked*

I've told my close friends, and they're kinda shocked when they knew it My sis n mom laughed very hard when I told them about this. It's just too hilarious (do I spell it rite?)

Thankfully I study in a private school. Once I ever went into a public school, and... the English is not so good. I barely could understand what they meant |||orz

@Akira: LOL, dunno if I can comment on that LOL

yea, you spelled it right (just implement an innate language pack in your browser to check the spellings - like I did ). Hey, I study in a private school... though I can clarify your words here too. Well, there's only a few of them that really pay attention to language after all - and fewer of them who excel in literature. Ugh

too bad I'm too lazy to do something like that... besides I really hate those red lines everytime I write in languages other than English =__=

there aren't many people who really interested in language (especially literature). even teenagers nowadays like cheap love story more than classic literatures, ckckckck... maybe it's because Indonesian people themselves don't appreciate writers, eh? once I told my mom that I wanted to go to Japanese Literatures major for college, and my mom said that I won't get any job after I graduate and I'll live as a hobo for the rest of my life .__.

Haha, well, if you use Chrome, then you'll get the language pack as soon as you installed the software~ *stomped* and if you hate it, then write in notepad *hanged*

Yea, I agree with that, and come to think of it, there's only a few of classic writers in Indonesia - for I rarely found a huge pile of those kind of books (translated into or originally written in Bahasa) in the bookstores... okay, I don't linger in bookstores so I don't know the actual condition, but I believe that my words above is close enough.

Hey, about that "living as a hobo" thingie, you could say to your mom that you could be a lecturer! *kicked* Well, yeah, I've felt that too - but I took English Literature and Philosophy (hell, yeah, like Indonesian appreciate Philosophies --a).

For Indonesian literature, I'm afraid I also don't read much of this... but I highly recommend Pramoedya Ananta Toer's Buru tetralogy, and my sister seems to like Dewi Utami's Saman and Larung. All of these have been acknowledged by the international world, as they have been translated into English.

I prefer reading short story anthologies. There's this one anthology of stories written by Indonesian women, but it's in English, but most of them are very good. To be honest, I don't like reading translated stories (especially English -> Indonesian) because the translation tends to get very literal. I get the meaning, but it doesn't have the same flow... similar to the feeling I get in IH sometimes However, I can be charged guilty for using literal translations as well when I'm lazy

Talking about literature, I rarely have the "stamina" to read long books unless I managed to get into it after a few boring first chapters, like Pride and Prejudice. I really do prefer reading short story anthologies, such as Oscar Wilde's The Happy Prince (needless to say, his stories were NOT happy. Trust me on this).

@ Xiao Ling: I'm also glad I've studied English outside public schools :p I usually end up being the one correcting the teachers back in high school. Oh, parents usually think learning languages isn't really important because it doesn't seem as difficult as engineering or medicine. For Japanese literature, you can always get a job as a Japanese teacher at school or tempat les (I forgot the English term XD) , since a lot of schools have Japanese as a subject now. The "living as a hobo" thing is pretty harsh :p Also, as Ben said, if you take post-graduate studies on Japanese as well, you should be able to become a lecturer in universities.

@ Kaya: Vocab is important, but I must digress on your opinion on grammar. An understanding of grammar is needed to create loopholes (???)

Whoa, you've plotted out some very unique choices for university majors. If they are your interests, though, I give you full support. For Philosophy, may I recommend Bertrand Russell's Berpikir ala Filsuf? It's a pretty old book, but it has some good points on analytical philosophy XD

@Akira: hha thx for the warning, its one of the best advice that I didn't take

@Ben: yea people smart in their own way, but u know what part we're talking about now right ~

About studying english in school...

well I studied in public school but I join the special class where they teach all the subjects with English. Hmph, what I didnt like is the regular students (yea we call them that way) didnt really like us. They think we're arrogant and didnt want to join them because we excel much in English than they are... the worst part is the regular teacher (who dont teach us) treat my friends and I the same way.. Ahh I still remember when one of our teacher is absent and a regular one come in to take her place, we act normally... then she started talking like.. 'Saya memang tidak bisa bahasa inggris tapi anda seharusnya hormat sama saya'

The hell..


They are just jealous I think... >_>... even our teachers being treated the same way...
