Hello. Nice to meet you again after--urm--yes, four vacant months. So sorry about that, because I was really busy and lazy to write a blog entry. Also, my F1 log book was missing for a few weeks (nearly a month, as far as I could remember), causing loss of interest in writing down personal race report, a report from one who watched F1 from the television. Eventually--and ironically, really--I found that the book was hidden under my bed. How ironic~ *sighs*

Oh, well. Let's forget about it all. *lols*

Anyway, I would like to congratulate Sebastian Vettel and Scuderia Toro Rosso for their magnificent victory, for a perfect race they had in Italy last Sunday. Of course, my biggest praise is for Der Seb, who now became the youngest driver who won a grand prix. I know how the kind-hearted, gentle, down-to-earth, and cute guy (really, he is :P) feels with the record.. Indeed, when you break a record, you'll be happy for a moment, but in the other side, you know that there will be another people who will break your record, sooner or later. But still, what Vettel gained yesterday is such a wonderful thing to remember. It was his maiden win of a historical race from a record-breaking pole position. And he was impressive, perfect throughout the race. The team also did an excellent work as they made almost no mistake, as far as I could remember, except a bit problem at the start with Sebastien Bourdais whose car stalled and had to restart from the pit lane.

So.. Der Seb, mate, and Toro Rosso... You really deserved the win and all the praises you've received until now. Perfect race, magnificent win, and.. Way to go, Seb! *waves Toro Rosso's and Ferrari's flag, the latter is for no~rea~son~*

100 Greatest Driver, selected by F1Racing Reader Panel

100. Alexander Wurz: Wheel banging, odd-boot-wearing Austrian.

81. Mike Hailwood: Legenda di roda dua, hebat di roda empat.
80. Sebastian Vettel: Pembalap muda berbakat. Termuda pada grand prix meeting (sesi Jumat Turki 2006), termuda peraih poin (AS 2007), dan termuda yang memimpin balapan (Jepang 2007). Oh, satu lagi. Pembalap termuda yang menangis di depan kamera TV setelah menabrak Mark di Fuji 2007.

63. Jo Siffert: Tak pernah dapat mobil bagus.
62. Clay Regazzoni: 'Perfect number two'.

60. Rene Arnoux: Pembalap kharismatik yang tak suka lihat spion.
59. Heinz-Harald Frentzen: Mestinya jadi 'Schumi' yang pertama. Sayang, ia selalu kalah berkompetisi dengan Schumi, termasuk dalam urusan wanita (mereka pernah memperebutkan Corinna Betsch, red.).
58. Johnny Herbert: Pembalap Inggris disegani.
57. Alessandro Nannini: Kencang tapi prematur.
56. Jarno Trulli: Kencang di kualifikasi.

50. Robert Kubica: Menabrak pagar beton pada kecepatan 228 km/j. Suprisingly, satu-satunya pembalap Polandia ini selamat--dan hanya terkilir.
49. Nick Heidfeld: Bjorn Borg impersonator; handy driver too.

40. David Coulthard: Rahangnya yang tak aerodinamis tak membuatnya pelan.
39. Tony Brooks: Pembalap Inggris sekaligus dokter gigi terbaik.

36. Phil Hill: Juara 1961--tak ada hubungan darah dengan Graham.
35. Stefan Bellof: Nyali besar membunuhnya. Manuvernya yang terlalu berani di balapan sportscar Spa 1000km ketika menyalip Jacky Ickx dari jalur luar merenggut nyawanya.
34. Carlos Reutemann: Pembalap Argentina misterius yang jadi politikus.
33. Jacky Ickx: Driver berbakat yang terlahir untuk balapan.

30. Gerhard Berger: Pembalap temperamental yang suka mencela.
29. Rubens Barrichello: Si nomor dua Schumi.
28. Bruce McLaren: Lebih jago dengan perkakas. Ya, dulunya ia seorang mekanik dan engineer yang berbakat.
27. Jean Alesi: Pembalap Prancis-Sisilia yang berpikir dengan hati.
26. John Surtees: Jagoan roda dua dan empat. Ia mengantungi beberapa gelar kejuaraan roda dua--plus menjadi juara dunia F1 bersama Ferrari di tahun 1964.
25. Jochen Rindt: Mendapat gelar F1 setelah meninggal. Mungkin, kisah pembalap yang satu ini adalah yang paling mengharukan sekaligus tragis dalam sejarah F1: Ia tewas karena kecelakaan di kualifikasi Monza 1970, dan poinnya saat itu tetap tak terkalahkan.
24. Mario Andretti: Penyelamat Ferrari dari Nazareth.
23. Ronnie Peterson: Hidup untuk balapan--kebanyakan di sisi yang salah.
22. Keke Rosberg: The First Flying Finn.

20. James Hunt: Juara dunia yang bad boy.
19. Damon Hill: Mantan si nomor dua yang jadi andalan British Racing Divers' Club.

17. Jack Brabham: Ksatria pertama dari F1.
16. Alberto Ascari: Jawara F1 pertama Ferrari.
15. Lewis Hamilton: Anak asuh McLaren dan bintang besar baru dunia.
14. Nelson Piquet: Master Psy-war. Ia pernah mengatai Nigel Mansell bodoh dan menyebut istrinya jelek hanya untuk membuat Mansell kesal. Jelas, ini bukan untuk ditiru, saudara sekalian.
13. Stirling Moss: Pembalap Inggris pecinta warna hijau. Ngomong-ngomong, namanya sangat terkenal sampai-sampai polisi yang mendapati Anda ngebut di jalanan Inggris akan bertanya seperti ini: 'Memangnya Anda siapa--Stirling Moss?'.
12. Fernando Alonso: Dua gelar, dua alis tebal.
11. Nigel Mansell: Anak bawang yang menaklukkan dunia.
10. Niki Lauda: Dingin, penuh perhitungan dan sangat kencang.
9. Gilles Villeneuve: Pejuang yang tak kenal kata menyerah.
8. Mika Hakkinen: Juara dunia ganda yang disegani Schumacher.
7. Kimi Raikkonen: Pembalap Ferrari super kencang. Tak banyak bicara saat konferensi pers--dan sampai sekarang tak banyak yang mengerti siapa dan bagaimana Kimi sebenarnya (kecuali orang-orang terdekatnya, tentu saja).
6. Jackie Stewart: Kstaria tak kenal lelah dan jawara cerdas.
5. Jim Clark: Petani sederhana dengan potensi besar.
4. Alain Prost: Empat gelar dengan kemenangan terbanyak setelah Schumi.
3. Juan Manuel Fangio: Pembalap legendaris yang membuat Senna menangis. Juara dunia lima kali, namun rendah hati.
2. Michael Schumacher: Pemecah rekor gelar F1--dan membuat Ferrari kembali bangkit. Tak banyak orang yang menyukainya, memang. Namun komitmen dan kerja kerasnya mampu membuatnya meraih gelar F1 sebanyak 7 kali. Saat ini, dia masih menjadi konsultan di Ferrari untuk membantu kedua 'penerus'nya.
1. Ayrton Senna: Pembalap Brasil menggemparkan F1. Ia meninggal dunia di Imola, San Marino 1994 akibat kecelakaan, namun prestasi dan segala hal tentangnya tak membuat Senna terlupakan. Justru sebaliknya, ia menjadi salah satu pembalap legendaris--dan tetap disegani sampai sekarang oleh seluruh pecinta F1, termasuk mereka yang bukan fansnya.

Oke, Myu ikutan voting juga waktu itu. Dan memutuskan siapa yang terbaik itu susah, saudara-saudara! Antara Abang Fernando dan Kimi (well, ujung-ujungnya Kimi juga, sih, yang menang. XP *disambit pake helm, setir, dan segala komponen mobil F1*), juga antara Daddy Schumi dan... Aryton Senna! Ergh. Yang terakhir itu yang paling susah, soalnya Myu ga pernah lihat Senna secara langsung ataupun lewat TV. Oh, plus Juan Manuel Fangio. Tapi lihat kan? Mereka bertiga berada di 3 besar. Membuktikan bahwa mereka memang yang terbaik di zamannya. Lalu, di era berikut ini, siapa yang akan jadi yang terbaik? We'll see.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Bakat terpendam para pembalap:
Kimi Raikkonen: Pembalap snowmobile.
Fernando Alonso: Pesulap.
Nico Rosberg: Pemain sepeda roda satu.
Jarno Trulli: Petani anggur.
Timo Glock: Pembuat rangka bangunan (sementara).
Adrian Sutil: Pianis klasik.
Lewis Hamilton: Gitaris.
Heikki Kovalainen: Pilot helikopter.

*rolls eyes*

Oke, jadi begini. Heikki dan Kimster sama-sama punya bakat yang tak kalah menantang dari F1. Tipikal orang Finlandia, eh? *digeplaks*

Then. Trulli jadi penjual anggur. Yeah, alright. Glock bisa disewa untuk membuat rangka bangunan rumah Anda. Kalau dia mau. Akang Lewis dan Adrian bisa berkolaborasi untuk konser musik di penghujung musim balapan. Err.. Menghibur sesama pembalap, begitu... *ditakol*

Last but not least! Nico beratraksi dengan sepeda roda satunya, sementara Abang Fernando menghibur penonton dengan atraksi sulap! *digiles rame-rame*

Atau mau gini: mereka semua bersatu di pesta penghujung musim balap? Akang Lewis dan Adrian berkolaborasi untuk konser musik, Abang Fernando mengadakan pertunjukan sulap, Nico beratraksi dengan sepeda roda satu, Glock yang menyusun tenda (paling ga, rangkanya. XP), Trulli jadi supplier wine.. Dan Heikki jadi bagian transportasi. Kimi? Terserah deh, tapi mungkin dia bisa jadi seksi transportasi juga... *kabur sebelum beneran dipecat*

23 May 2008

BBM resmi naik mulai 24 Mei 2008. Pengumumannya malam ini, dan..

Well, perlukah saya menolak kenaikan BBM? Nope. Yeah, saya tahu, segalanya bakal jadi lebih mahal. Tapi please, deh. Harga BBM dunia udah 135 dolar/barel. Dan itu masih mentah. P-L-E-A-S-E.

Satu lagi, masih banyak negara yang lebih susah daripada kita, dan masih banyak juga yang harga BBM-nya lebih tinggi.

8 June 2008

Barrack Obama terpilih jadi capres dari Demokrat. Dan Hillary Clinton menyatakan bahwa beliau mendukung. Wooohooo~!

9 June 2008

Mau nonton siaran tunda balapan malah ketiduran sewaktu baru lima lap pertama. Ampun dah. Untung udah lihat hasilnya di F1.com, dan.. Robert Kubica menang! *peluk-peluk Robert*

Oh yeah. Myu pundung ama Akang dan Kimi. Retirement balapannya ga elit bener. Ada ya, ceritanya, orang nabrak mobil lain sewaktu di pit? *cetuk-cetuk lemari helm* --;;

19 June 2008

Harga superlicence F1 naik 400%!

Yeah, para pembalap kecewa dengan kenaikan harga superlicence yang jauh lebih tinggi daripada kenaikan harga BBM..

Tapi~ Pedro de la Rosa bilang, ga akan ada demo, walau ada isu soal itu. Er, Kimi bilang gitu juga sih, di press conference hari ini..

*cium-cium semua pembalap*

21 June 2008

Pole position! Front row! Yay!

Anyway, Akang Lewis turun 10 posisi dari P3 karena nabrak Kimi dua minggu kemarin. Dan Heikki, juga turun 5 posisi dari P5 karena menghalangi Mark. *jewer Akang sama Heikki*

22 June 2008

Buku catatan Miyu soal balapan ilang atau keselip entah di mana. Nice. *pundung pangkat tak hingga*

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

1-2! Yay! *peluk-peluk Felipe, Kimi, dan Trulli*

Heikki no 4, Akang no 10. Abang? 8. Hohoho~

Eh, iya. Kubica no 5.

Yeah! Meskipun harus mengorbankan pipa exhaust... *pats Kimi*

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Anyway~ Ngecek DHL Fastest Laps dan menemukan sesuatu yang keren: Kimi 5 kali berturut-turut fastest lap. Bahkan di saat dia ga finis. Ckckck. How--Nice!

5 September 2008

Baca press conference F1 hari Kamis, dan menemukan satu pembicaraan lucu:

Q: To all of you: what is on your i-Pod?
KN: Any kind of music but most of it is Japanese pop. Since I came to Europe, I especially tend to listen more to Japanese songs, maybe to remind me of home.
SV: Any kind really, German folk songs are my favourite. Anything really, a bit of everything.
KR: Mostly Finnish music, all sorts. You wouldn't know, so it doesn't matter what I say.
NH: Yeah, similar to the others, a lot of different stuff, not a lot of classic stuff. No German folk music, more in the direction of R&B, hip-hop, not so much techno, more chill-out but various stuff.
SV: Why don't you like folk songs?
NH: Why do you like it, that's more difficult to answer, I think?
SV: I like the lyrics.
NH: I like the smile on the singers' faces, just like yours.

Pembicaraan antara Vettel dan Nick ga penting.. Eh, tapi Seb kalau lagi senyum cakep juga sih.. *lols*

Nyah. Miyu ga punya i-Pod, sih, jadi ga bisa iseng menjawab pertanyaan yang sama. *digeplak* Ah, apa pertanyaannya berlaku juga untuk mp3/multimedia player lainnya? *ditimpuks*

Aih, udahlah. Btw.. *timpuks Kimi pake high-heels sebanyak edan* Yang nanya mungkin kaga tau, tapi gara-gara Kimi dan Heikki, Miyu jadi demen berburu lagu-lagu Finnish.. ^^;;

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Beberapa hari yang lalu beli satu majalah anime merek A (You know what, really).. Pas buka bonus CD-nya, Ryorin bilang kayanya pernah denger musik latarnya... Dan pas nyampe 'bagian tengah', Miyu juga ngerasa pernah denger..

Dan usut-punya-usut, ternyata itu diambil dari salah satu doujin musik Touhou. Euh. Yah, emang sih, cuma doujin music. Nothing more. Tapi tetap aja, itu karya orang.. Diambil tanpa kredit, apa itu bener?

Kesimpulan: Miyu kecewa. Titik, ga pake koma.

6 September 2008

Akang pole, Felipe kedua, Heikki ketiga. Kimi? Di sebelah Heikki.

Benernya Miyu ga nonton kualifikasi lewat GlobalTV (yang sekarang siaran tunda mulu >.<), tapi lewat website F1.com. Yeah. Berhubung sekarang GlobalTV nyiarin kualifikasi F1 selalu secara siaran tunda, dan kebetulan pula, tiap hari Sabtu ada rapat staff IH.. Jadilah, Miyu nonton kualifikasi lewat Live Timing Formula1.com. Enak sih, bisa tahu kondisi cuaca dll di sana. Komentar? Lumayan lengkap. Masalahnya adalah...

Ga ada gambarnya, dan ga bisa denger komentator ngomong! ^^;;

7 September 2008

Akang, Felipe, Nick.

Kimi tikusruk hanya 2 lap sebelum finish. Padahal nyaris sepanjang balapan dia mempimpin dan bagus. Semangat pula. >.< Well, que sera sera. He's been good throughout the race, actually. Yeah. Ferrari mau gak mau memang harus lebih fokus pada Felipe sekarang.

Anyway, Kimi. Do your best for the remaining races. Don't lose your determination. Bless you, babe.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Kata Ambu, Kimi pundung gara-gara tikusruk dan Miyu ga bagi-bagi kolak. Euh. Kimi, lain kali kalo pengen kolak, bilang dong ke Miyu. Entar Miyu kirim lewat Jenni, oke? *digeplaks rame-rame: 'Ga ada hubungannya ama balapan, Miyu dear!'*

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Hanya beberapa jam setelah balapan, Miyu dapat berita bahwa Akang dipenalti 25 detik, jadi juara GP Belgia bukan lagi dia. Alasannya? Silakan baca sendiri. No comment, dah.

Err.. Jadi, masihkah Kimi punya kesempatan untuk mengejar gelar? I dunno, really. But it will be better if he could..

10 September 2008

F1 Racing edisi September ini banyak Ferrarinya.. Huhuhu~ *lambai-lambaiin majalah ke depan Abah-bukan-Ambu-karena-Abah-yang-suka-Ferrari*

Mulai dari trek tes pribadi Ferrari di Fiorano yang ternyata juga berbentuk angka delapan, wawancara Kimi Raikkonen, kilas balik mobil-mobil Ferrari, sampai mengintip koki Ferrari memasak pasta... Semua ada.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Pengen Ferrari 430 Scuderia~~~ Katanya teknologinya diadopsi dari F2008.. >.<

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Tahu pembalap ngapain kalau lagi senggang? Percaya atau engga: mereka main poker. Katanya sih Robert Kubica yang paling jago. Iseng, pula. Pernah Vijay Mallya ikutan main, dan dilarang buka kacamata hitam ama Robert--biar yang lain bisa ngintip kartunya Mallya apaan.. *ngakak kejer* Dan Bernie Ecclestone bukannya marah pas tahu banyak pembalap yang doyan main poker. Orangnya malah ikutan main--meski sering kalah.. Buset dah. *guling-guling* *ditakol Eyang Bernie* Aih. Jadi inget waktu SMA dulu.. Kerjaan Miyu dan teman-teman kalau lagi istirahat: main poker--di kelas Miyu. Meski sering ketahuan guru dan barang-barang disita, kita tetep aja main, tiap hari pada jam istirahat.. ;)) *contoh murid ga baik, red.*

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Wawancara dengan Kimi Raikkonen oleh Heikki Kulta (wartawan ekslusif F1 untuk Turun Sanomat, kalau ada yang belum tahu)... Pertama-tama.. Apartemennya bikin mupeng! *kitten eyes* Beneran. Mewah, iya. Mengherankan kalau orang setenar dia ga punya apartemen semewah itu. Masalahnya, apartemen yang letaknya di luar Helsinki itu khas Finlandia. Lantainya dari kayu meski banyak panel kaca dan fasilitas mewah. Bersih, rapi. Dan--pemandangan di luarnya indah! Keren! Banyak pohonnya.. Beneran pengen.. T_____T Paling enggak, rumah berlantai kayu yang bagus dan terletak di pinggiran kota, terus di sekitar ada banyak pohon yang bagus buat dipandang dan menyegarkan.. Tapi di Indonesia sekarang, di mana ya, nyari rumah seperti itu? :| Kembali ke topik. Wawancaranya ternyata menyenangkan. Kimi tetap ga banyak bicara seperti biasa, selalu to the point, tapi kadang, dia mengeluarkan sedikit lelucon--humor hanya dalam beberapa kata. Mengalir dan tajam, khas Finlandia. Seperti contoh berikut:

Menurut Anda, apakah Anda tetangga yang baik?

Tentu--Saya tetangga yang sangat baik. Dengan jadwal yang ekstra padat, saya tak pernah di sini.

Tentu saja, Kimster dear. *ngikik*

Pendapat Anda tentang adanya 'Lewis mania' yang mengelilingi diri Lewis Hamilton?

Saya tak terlalu tahu. Kalau pun ada, tanyakan saja pada dia bagaimana rasanya?

Bagaimana rasanya lap yang sempurna?

Wah, rasanya hebat. Lebih enak daripada bercinta.

Ehm. Semoga besok Myu ga menulis seperti ini di deskripsinya Aurora seandainya Ravenclaw menang piala asrama di IndoHogwarts: 'Bagaimana rasanya memenangkan piala asrama setelah tiga tahun berturut-turut berada di tempat terbawah? Wah, rasanya hebat. Lebih enak daripada ciuman.'

*disambit berkarung-karung kacang, terutama kacang hazel, dari berbagai arah*

*nyumput di belakang Kimi* *dijitak*

Well, wawancara sisanya menarik juga kok. Ryorin sempat bingung pas baca pertanyaan soal Vodka versus Chianti. Dikiranya Chianti itu bukan wine, tapi ternyata itu salah satu jenis red wine yang diproduksi di daerah Chianti, sekitar Tuscany. Jadi--ternyata Kimi mau bilang dia lebih suka Vodka, dengan cara mengatakan bahwa dia tidak pernah suka wine... ^^;;

Terus, ternyata kita berdua sama-sama punya kebiasaan yang sama kalau masak pasta. Selalu menyukai apa yang dibuat sendiri, tidak tahu hasilnya sudah sempurna atau tidak, tapi kita suka menambahkan bermacam-macam bumbu (dan bahan pendamping)--dan kita merasa hasilnya enak.

Setidaknya, dalam kasus Myu, Ryorin selalu bilang enak--dan seingat Myu, kalau Myu masak pasta (spageti, dll), Ryorin habisnya banyak deh.. ^^;;

Back to topic. Last but not least... Ada beberapa kutipan wawancara yang menarik. Kata Kimi, di Ferrari mereka semua berteman baik. Sahabat karibnya, menurut pengakuan Kimi, adalah Gino Rosato yang tahu soal hoki es (salah satu olahraga favorit Kimi). Bagian 'keren' menurut Miyu dari pertanyaan soal sahabat karib di F1 ini adalah... Bahwa menurut pria 28 tahun ini, di F1 kita bisa punya teman dekat. Semua orang profesional. Yah, yang ini tidak dikatakan memang: bersaing di atas trek, tapi di luar trek, ngobrol yang ngobrol biasa. Berteman ya berteman, bahkan bisa saja jadi teman dekat. Kalau baca F1Racing beberapa edisi yang lalu, ada artikel soal Driver's Parade, di mana sebelum parade mulai, para pembalap ngobrol satu sama lain. Bahkan Jenson dan Nick ngobrol soal anak... *lols*

Last but not least... Ketika ditanya apa kepribadiannya yang pendiam adalah taktik yang disengaja untuk melindungi diri, Kimi bilang kalau dia tidak berpikir sampai ke situ. 'Saya adalah saya', katanya.

Indeed.. Kimi is Kimi, and--

I am what I am.

I am... Me.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Tips memasak pasta dari Vincenzo Santangelo (kepala koki Ferrari):
1. Untuk setiap 100g pasta, tambahkan 30g tomat, 20g krim dan satu sendok makan saus pesto.
2. Pasta yang sempurna teksturnya pas: Agak keras saat digigit tapi matang sampai ke dalam.
3. Pasta dengan kandungan gluten tinggi tahan lebih lama setelah dimasak. Direkomendasikan jika Anda memasak untuk banyak orang.

Grazie, Vincenzo!

Ah, ya, kata Vincenzo, pasta dengan merek sama bisa saja berbeda di setiap negara...

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Mclaren mengajukan banding atas penalti yang diberikan stewards pada Lewis Hamilton hari Minggu kemarin. Again, no comment.

12 September 2008

Pernah merasa sendiri setiap saat? Kalau iya, berarti kalian tahu apa yang Miyu rasakan akhir-akhir ini.

Sendiri--meski banyak yang OL di Y!M, banyak orang di sekitar... Miyu tetap aja merasa sendirian. Tahu kenapa? Kalau ada yang tahu, bagus lah. Karena Miyu sendiri enggak tahu. Sama sekali.

Bahkan meski baru satu-dua menit yang lalu ada yang ngajakin ngobrol, Miyu tetap aja merasa sendiri. Dunno why.

Bahkan setumpuk puisi di The Heart-nya TPS ga bisa memperbaiki perasaan... *padahal biasanya bisa*

When you feel alone at all times, and wonders whether if you are worthy to have 'friends'...

13 September 2008

Hasil kualifikasi hari ini: Sebastian Vettel meraih pole position pertama untuk Toro Rosso. Heikki kedua, Mark ketiga.

Felipe keenam, Kimi-Akang Lewis start dari P14 dan P15 karena sedikit 'masalah'.

Dan.. Vettel memecahkan rekor sebagai pole sitter termuda! Awesome, mate! *peluk-peluk Seb*

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Ngomongin pemulung sama Ryorin gara-gara ada berita daging bekas yang diolah kembali terus dijual di Jakarta. Daging sampah, sih, sebenarnya. Sampah buangan hotel.

Iya, tahu. Kedengarannya berkelas, kan? Masalahnya ini benar-benar sudah menyentuh sampah--benar-benar SAMPAH. Iya kalau itu daging sisa yang tidak diinginkan, lalu diberikan, masih bersih, terus diolah. Myu ama Ryorin sih mikirnya gak apa-apa kalau gitu. Tapi ini?

Ngeliat beritanya aja udah miris. Akhirnya, Myu dan Ryorin ngomongin soal 'pemulung' di Amerika dan membandingkan dengan yang di Indonesia. Di sana, orang bisa datang ke supermarket/hotel/restoran/apapun itu untuk minta daging. Biasanya daging 'sisa' yang sudah mendekati kadaluarsa, tapi masih bagus--untuk diolah/dijual lagi dengan harga super murah. Kalau di tempat penjualan ikan, biasanya yang diminta ikan-ikan kecil yang harganya murah (lupa namanya apa), untuk tepung roti.

Well, memang dagingnya mendekati kadaluarsa, tapi sekali lagi, itu masih bagus, bisa dipakai, dan belum menyentuh sampah. Dan 'memulung'-nya juga elit: Minta. Kedengarannya memalukan, memang, tapi lebih terhormat mana: meminta ke supermarket/hotel/restoran/apapun itu untuk daging yang nyaris kadaluarsa (tapi masih bisa dipakai dan bersih) secara baik-baik, atau, memungut daging sisa dari tempat sampah terus diolah begitu saja?

Lebih baik yang pertama, menurut Myu dan Ryorin. Sayang, orang Indonesia tidak mau merendahkan diri sedikit di depan orang lain.. Bukan orang kaya juga berlagak seperti orang kaya--dan terhormat. *sighs*

14 September 2008

Banyak yang menduga sanksi dari steward kepada Lewis Hamilton minggu lalu berbau konspirasi. Yah, katanya sih, ada teori konspirasi. Entah benar atau tidak.

Kata steward, mereka sudah melakukan sesuai prosedur dan kesepakatan dengan pembalap, di mana kalau ada yang memotong chicane dan 'mengambil keuntungan', ia harus mengembalikan 'keuntungan' itu pada 'pembalap yang merasa dirugikan'. Menurut juru bicara McLaren, Akang Lewis sudah melakukan itu, tapi steward menganggap dia kurang sabar, sebab begitu selesai memberi jalan pada Kimi, Akang sudah mau nyalip. Mana yang benar? Entahlah. Myu ga peduli. Apapun itu, ga akan mengubah hasil yang satu ini: Kimi DNF di Belgia gara-gara menabrak tembok.

McLaren sendiri sudah mengajukan banding dan kelanjutannya akan kita ketahui tanggal 22 September.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Katanya, helm balap lebih ringan daripada helm biasa. Kenapa? Karena kinerja leher pembalap lumayan berat, apalagi dengan G-force yang ga kecil...

Berarti jadi pembalap harus punya leher yang kuat... *lah?*

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Rekor pemenang Grand Prix F1 akhirnya pecah di tangan seorang Sebastian Vettel. Yeay~! Congrats, mate! Perfect race, indeed.

Aih, iya. Hasil balapan: Sebastian Vettel, Heikki, Robert, Abang Fernando, Nick, Felipe, Akang Lewis, Mark Webber--dan Kimi.

Iya. Kimi nomor 9...

Que sera sera. Yang penting rekor juara balapan pecah, juaranya pake mesin Ferrari (setidaknya ada bau Ferrarinya), ada pembalap Finlandia di atas podium, dan--ada yang cakep!

*cium-cium Seb, Heikki dan Robert*

*kabur dari jitakan Ambu dan Ryorin yang pundung*

Hihi. Satu lagi: Bisa dengerin lagu kebangsaan Jerman-Italia di podium F1 setelah sekian lama...

*squishes Seb*

ALL HAIL SEBASTIAN VETTEL!

15 September 2008

Seb dan Toro Rosso kebanjiran ucapan selamat atas prestasi mereka kemarin... Dari berbagai orang di paddock F1. Termasuk oleh beberapa pembalap di sini

Well, mate... You and your team really deserved the victory, the joy, and the praises. Hope you'll stay as good as you are now--and even better.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Waktu Stefano Domenicali ditanya apa Ferrari akan menitikberatkan pada Felipe untuk berjuang meraih gelar, dia bilang bahwa fokus utama adalah tim. Katanya lagi, kalau memang memungkinkan, Kimi akan berusaha sebaik mungkin untuk agresif, tetapi juga mempertimbangkan fakta bahwa Felipe lebih dekat dalam perhitungan poin melawan Lewis Hamilton.

Jadi... Kita akan lihat sekitar dua minggu lagi, paling tidak. Lihat apakah Kimi sudah mulai 'membantu' Felipe, atau justru... Ia tetap berusaha memenangkan setiap balapan yang tersisa? We'll see. He'll give his best shot for himself and the team, I believe.

Nyaris kelupaan soal ini kalau ga diingetin Ambu.

Ehm. Mohon pasang plang-plang berikut ketika Anda balapan di atas trek yang basah di bawah guyuran hujan yang sangat deras:

'Awas trek licin.'
'Kecepatan max 30 km/jam.'
'Hindari genangan air.'
'Hati-hati di tikungan.'

Kata Ryorin, Der Seb menang karena dia satu-satunya yang baca plang buatan saya itu.. Wekekek! Jadi, kalau mau menang balapan basah, tolong plang itu dipasang, terus diperhatikan... *ngeloyor santai*

FORMULA 1 GRAND PRIX - SPA-FRANCORCHAMPS, BELGIUM 2008 - RACE REPORT

Greetings, and welcome back to Spa-Francorchamps, the most beautiful F1 circuit--ever. It is located in the middle of the beautiful nature of Belgium, is a fast circuit, and has Eau Rouge, one of the most challenging turn--making Spa loved by almost every F1 driver. It's also my favorite, of course.

Lewis Hamilton secured the pole position on Saturday, followed by Felipe Massa and Heikki Kovalainen. The reigning world champion, Kimi Raikkonen, will start from P4 after making a mistake on one of his qualifying lap. Well, will Kimi win the race, make it four in a row, and prove that he is still worthy to be a title contender for this year--or he will fail to be better than his team mate this Sunday, and he'll helping Felipe fight for the driver's title against Lewis Hamilton? Let's see during the race.

No rain expected during 30 minutes, that's what we got from the weather prediction, only 5 minutes before the race. But no one knows what will really happen with the weather, of course.

Oh, anyway, before the race started, i would like to remind all of you about--well. If Kimi Raikkonen failed to prove that he is still worthy for this year title, then we'll see a new champion in the end of this season, and it will be his first title. Either Lewis Hamilton or Felipe Massa. We'll see. Yes, we'll see.

The weather is really cloudy at the start of the race--even before. Lewis Hamilton led the race when the light went off, followed by Felipe Massa and Kimi Raikkonen behind. The two Ferraris were engaged in a side-by-side battle just a few seconds after the start, the Ferrari of Kimi was the one managed to be in second place. Poor start for Heikki Kovalainen, anyway, as he was overtaken by many drivers and dropped down to 11th. Fernando Alonso fourth, Sebastien Bourdais fifth. Jarno Trulli had a spin in the near end of the lap.

Lap 2, Kimi took the lead as he passed Lewis. Lewis himself seemed to have some problem with the car. Apparently, on the replay video, Hamilton had a spin at La Source hairpin in the end of Lap 1, allowing Kimi to get closer to him and finally took the lead.

Lap 3, Heikki started 'moving'. He was tenth at the time.

Lap 6, Lewis set a fastest lap, while in the middle of the pack, Nick Heidfeld was overtaking Nelson Piquet Jr.

Lap 8, Heikki became 8th. Kimi set a new fastest lap.

Lap 10, Lewis set another new fastest lap.

Lap 11, Kimi set -just another- fastest lap. Meanwhile, Mark Webber spun as Heikki trying to get past him.

Lap 12, first pit-stop for Lewis Hamilton. Drive-through penalty for Heikki Kovalainen was announced. He was accused causing a collision in the previous lap (the 'accident' with Webber). Lewis came out from the pit lane after 6,8 s spending his time refuelling, and joined back just behind his teammate.

Lap 13, the race leader pitted. 7,1 s and he rejoined third.

Lap 14, Heikki did his drive-through penalty. Lewis fourth, about 4 s behind Kimi, who was still in third place. Piquet spun and hit the wall, causing a yellow flag and a first retirement for the day.

Lap 16, Bourdais and Robert Kubica pitted at the same time. Bourdais spent his time longer in the white box, but both of them rejoined the race at the very same time and just in the order they entered the pit lane.

Lap 21, Rubens Barrichello reitired due to six gear loss.

Lap 25, new fastest lap for Kimi. Lewis getting closer to him, though.

Lap 26, both Kimi and Lewis had a pit-stop together. They rejoined -also- exactly in the order they came in. Second for Kimi, third for Lewis--and Felipe Massa led the race. Rain was expected in 20 minutes.

Lap 28, Fernando and Felipe both had a pit stop. Massa rejoined in third place, giving the lead of the race back to the reigning world champion.

Lap 32, Nick Heidfeld pitted from eighth place. Bourdais had his second 'stop' just one lap after that, followed by Robert in the 34th lap.

7 laps before the end of the race, some drops of rain seemed to be falling, but presumably, it's just sprinkles.

6 laps remaning, and indeed, it is raining. Kimi getting slower and now he is only 1,9s ahead of the drivers' championship leader.

Is was just two laps more towards the end of the race. Kimi and Lewis engaged in a hard battle, and finally, Lewis took the lead as the rain falling down to earth so hard. Some cars seemed to be struggling at the time, including Kimi who ran wide and Lewis who went off the track for a while. Kimi spun at the middle of the lap and spun again in a moment after it, after retaking the lead from Lewis Hamilton. Eventually, he crashed into the wall, causing damage to the car and his retirement: He really went all-for-nothing. Another retirement was his fellow Finn (who eventually finished tenth), due to gearbox transmission problem in the last lap.

In the end, Lewis Hamilton won the Belgian Grand Prix, with Felipe Massa and Nick Heidfeld in the second--and third place, respectively. Fernando Alonso fourth, Sebastian Vettel fifth, Robert Kubica sixth, Sebastien Bourdais seventh, and Timo Glock finished in eighth place.

Just a few hours after the race, I read a news that Felipe Massa was announced as the race winner after a 25s penalty was given to Lewis Hamilton. The steward decided he had gained an advantage by cutting the final chicane during his late-race battle with Ferrari�fs Kimi Raikkonen, but McLaren insist Hamilton was not at fault as he immediately relinquished the lead to Raikkonen following the incident. The team also claim that they were twice told by race control that their driver�fs conduct appeared to be within the rules. McLaren theirselves planned to appeal the decision. The penalty, which was a substitute for a drive-through penalty are not normally open to appeal, but finally, the Court set a date: They will meet in Paris on Monday, September 22 to consider the appeal. They will decide whether McLaren's appeal is admissible first, and the decision is expected the following day. However, the Lewis Hamilton's penalty, Felipe Massa inherited win, and McLaren appeal would not change one thing: Kimi Raikkonen failed to even finish the race in Spa. With this result, he dropped down to fourth in the driver's championship, only 1 point behind Robert Kubica, and his chance to fight for the title and defend his title become smaller. Some people, including me, had thought that he should be starting to support Felipe for catching the title, but it seems that we have to wait for the next race in Italy as Kimi said that he will give his best shot for himself and the team.

FORMULA 1 GRAND PRIX - MONZA, ITALY 2008 - RACE REPORT

From Belgium, now we are in Monza, Italy. A circuit which is often told as 'Ferrari's backyard', which is going to be a place which a history written as Sebastian Vettel from Scuderia Toro Rosso secured the pole position on Saturday. He was 21 year and 73 days old at the time, making him the youngest driver to reach pole position--ever. The second place in the front row was Heikki Kovalainen. Third and fourth were Mark Webber and Sebastien Bourdais, respectively. Felipe Massa would start the race from sixth place, while his team mate, the reigning world champion Kimi Raikkonen, would start from 14th, and their main rival, Lewis Hamilton would start from 15th after both title contenders failed to reach even Q3.

The race eventually became a really historical race--unbeknownst to everyone. It was really unpredictable. We'll see how the historical Italian grand prix race was going at that time, lap by lap.

The rain was pouring down heavily, even before the start of the race, and everyone must start the race under Safety Car's control. Since there was Safety Car, no one was allowed to overtake others, but Sebastien Bourdais' car was stalled. I heard it was hydarulic pressure of something, but I'm not really sure. Bourdais rejoined the race with a restart from the pit lane after Toro Rosso gave all their strength to bring the car back alive.

Lap 3, Sebastian Vettel was still leading, even after the Safety Car was not on the track. Second was Heikki Kovalainen, third Mark Webber. Kimi Raikkonen and Lewis Hamilton were thiteenth and fourteenth at the time, respectively.

Lap 4, Hamilton seemed to be struggling with the car. Timo Glock overtook Fernando Alonso. The rain still falling down, anyway.

Lap 5, and Der Seb still leading the race. Felipe Massa now fifth, while Fernando had a battle with Glock--and eventually get in front of the Toyota. Lewis himself was trying to get past Kimi but failed.

Lap 6, Vettel set a fastest lap. In the middle of the pack, Kimi was pressing hard against Giancarlo Fisichella.

Lap 7, Lewis was under David Coulthard's pressure. Glock spun, while Der Seb was leading by 5 s ahead of Heikki.

Lap 8, Fisichella, Kimi, and Lewis was engaged in a tough battle for.. I forgot. 9-11th place, maybe? Lewis trying to pass but failed as Kimi closed the way, maintaining his race line.

Lap 9, Kimi overtook Fisi at the straight line. New fastest lap for Sebastian Vettel.

Lap 10, Lewis was battling with Fisi. Eventually, he overtook the Force India driver at lap 11.

Lap 13, Lewis was 13th. Nico Rosberg was battling with Felipe. The Ferrari was in front for a while before Nico got the position back. Another battle and Massa won. Fisi had a problem with his car and crashed, causing a retirement--and a yellow flag.

Lap 14, Lewis overtook Nick Heidfeld while Nico Rosberg passing Felipe Massa (not sure about this, anyway..) The next lap, Massa retook the position from Nico.

Lap 17, fastest lap for Felipe. Hamilton get past Robert Kubica who was eighth. Kimi still in twelfth place.

Lap 18, Der Seb was 11s ahead of Heikki.

Lap 19, the race leader had a pitstop and rejoined behind Felipe after 8,4 s spending his time inside the box. Lewis overtook Fernando after a tough side-by-side battle.

Lap 21, Glock overtook Fernando.

Lap 22, Lewis get past Trulli, but he ran wide shortly after and eventually, Trulli get back in front of Lewis.

Lap 23, Heikki had a pit stop, and so did Felipe--and Mark Webber. Sebastian Vettel led the race again. Lewis passed Trulli, while Kimi failed to get past Nick.

It's still a long way to go. 29 laps more, and Lewis now in second place. Kimi tenth.

28 laps remaining. Glock pitted for around 9s. Felipe was putting a hard pressure against Nick.

27 laps to go, both Trulli and Kimi had a pit-stop. Trulli spent 9,4s, while Kimi did a shorter stop (5,4s).

26 laps remaining and Lewis did his pit-stop for 9,7 s.

It's now lap 30. Der Seb was 12s ahead of Heikki and 22s ahead of Felipe.

Lap 31, and Fernando entered his white box, spending 9,8s for refuelling. Kimi overtook Trulli.

20 laps to go. Felipe pitted for 6,2s. Glock and Nico also had a pit-stop a short moment after that.

19 laps remaining... Heikki and Robert entered their respective white-box for a pit-stop. Webber did, too. Massa getting a bit wild at Ascari, while Trulli engaged in a battle with Robert Kubica in the middle-to-near-end of the lap.

There is 18 laps more... Felipe passed Mark Webber, and the latter spun. Kimi had his second pit-stop. The next lap, the race leader Sebastian Vettel also had his second stop. So did Lewis Hamilton, who passed Mark shortly after. There was also a battle between Nelson Piquet Jr. and Jenson Button.

15 laps to go, and Lewis set a fastest lap. A tough battle was undergone by Fernando Alonso, Nick Heidfeld, and Felipe Massa. It became a battle between Felipe and Nick during the next lap.

11 laps remaining. Kimi passed Kazuki Nakajima, and followed by Glock.

10 laps towards the end of the Italian Grand Prix. DC gone wide, while the German youngster -Sebastian Vettel- was 10s ahead of Heikki.

8 laps to go. Kimi set a new fastest lap as Jenson pitted.

7 laps remaining, and the fastest lap was set again by Webber.

6 laps more. Kimi passed Piquet Jr. as the latter missed the chicane. The next lap, Webber was trying to get past Lewis but failed.

Now it's 3 laps more before the race officially ended, and Nakajima collided with DC. Meanwhile, Kimi set the fastest lap. Sebastian Vettel still led the race--

--Until the German youngster from the underdog Italian team won the historical Italian Grand Prix of Formula 1. Yes, indeed. Sebastian Vettel won the race, with Heikki Kovalainen and Robert Kubica in second and third place respectively. The rest of point earners are as follows: Fernando Alonso, Nick Heidfeld, Felipe Massa, Lewis Hamilton, and Mark Webber.

The reigning world champion, Kimi Raikkonen himself, only managed to finished ninth. Ironically, he set the fastest lap for the day during the final stint. With this result, he and Ferrari seems to have to consider Massa's title bid as he was going even further behind Lewis Hamilton, Felipe Massa, and Robert Kubica in the Drivers' Championship with only four races remaining.

Back to Sebastian Vettel. He and his team were doing a perfect job throughout the weekend, especially during the race. There is almost no mistake done, making the win a magnificent maiden win. They were starting as an underdog, even after Der Seb secured his maiden pole. No one ever expected the unpredictable result, but clearly, shortly after the German crossed the line, everyone was cheering for him and his team. Even the peers at the paddock offers praises for Der Seb and Toro Rosso. The youngster now is a holder of youngest grand prix winner, and moved up to ninth in the driver championship. He remained kind and down-to-earth at the press conference, though he clearly showed that he enjoyed his win so much at the podium--making me consider of him becoming the next star of Formula 1.

Well, indeed. He is a talented person. With a good car and environment around him, I'm sure that he will be a great driver, sooner or later.

Congratulation, Sebastian Vettel. Congratulation, Scuderia Toro Rosso. Perfect race, magnificent win. Encore!

Presiden SBY ngamuk-ngamuk sewaktu menghadiri acara dengan pejabat (entah apa). Kenapa? Karena ada peserta yang tidur waltu SBY pidato. *lol* *tepuk tangan*

Tahu kenapa orang Finlandia bisa bertahan di musim dingin yang panjang? Kenapa mereka bisa berhasil dan mampu bertahan menghadapi semua tantangan?

Jawabannya ada satu: Sisu.

Apa itu sisu? Itu adalah kekuatan atas kemauan, ketekunan, dan tekad. Ekivalennya dalam bahasa Inggris adalah "to have guts". Menurut legenda Finlandia, butuh 10 tentara Rusia untuk mengalahkan satu orang Finn dalam Perang Dunia, hanya karena orang itu punya sisu. Pada kenyataannya, seorang Finlandia berhasil membuat rekor masalah tembak-menembak (Miyu lupa apaan, tanya aja Ryorin. :P), karena dia punya sisu.

Well, sisu bukanlah keberanian, tapi lebih kepada kemauan yang keras untuk berhasil dalam mengerjakan sesuatu. Kebanyakan orang Finlandia punya itu, dan itu pantas kita contoh kalau mau berhasil, meskipun kita tak memiliki musim dingin yang panjang seperti mereka...

FORMULA 1 GRAND PRIX- CATALUNYA, SPAIN 2008 - RACE REPORT

Greetings. It's time for the first Formula 1 race in Europe for the 2008 season, in Catalunya, Spain.

At the Saturday qualifying, Ferrari's Kimi Raikkonen took the pole at the very last time, sending away his rival Renault's Fernando Alonso to the second grid position. Meanwhile, Kimi's team mate Felipe Massa had to start from the second row beside BMW's Robert Kubica. The McLaren duo, however, got the third row, with Lewis Hamilton on fifth grid.

As the light went off, Kimi ran his car a bit slowly, although it's still a 'good' start, as he blocked up Fernando's way. Felipe did an excellent start, and managed to pass Fernando on Turn 1. Hamilton fourth, Kubica fifth.

At the middle of lap 1, suddenly there was a yellow flag and then, followed by a Safety Car. Apparently, an accident involving Sebastian Vettel and Adrian Sutil was happened. Sutil's car seemed to had collided with David Coulthard's , but I didn't really pay attention to what happened with Vettel.

Lap 4, the race restarted as the Safety Car went back to the place where it belong to.

Lap 8, Nelson Piquet Jr gone wide when trying to pass Sebastian Bourdais. He was forced to retire, while Bourdais had to have his first pit-stop. Yellow flag.

Lap 9, Bourdais retired as Anthony Davidson pitted. Ant himself seemed to have some problem, and sadly, he had to be retired from the race.

Lap 11, Kimi was 3 s ahead of Felipe. Alonso was predicted to enter the pit on lap 16 or so.

Lap 13, Kimi was first on the fastest lap qualification.

Lap 14, the yellow flag finally of. Kimi still led the race.

Lap 16, Renault mechanics were getting ready for Alonso, who pitted one lap after that for 9,3 s. He rejoined in eleventh place.

Lap 20, Felipe entered his white box. 8,1 s and rejoined eighth.

Lap 21, Kimi in the pit box, 8,2 s. Webber, Lewis also pitted.

Lap 22, Lewis was running in sixth place, while a severe accident befell his team-mate, Heikki Kovalainen, in turn 9. Heikki seemed to have a problem with his tire (I forgot which one, but as far as I can remember, it's on the front), and then losing control, and then... Bum! He hit the tire barrier so hard. *sighs* Yellow flag.

Lap 23, Safety Car and Medical Car all out.

Lap 25, Nick Heidfeld pitted. He was supposed to get penalised, because the pit lane isn't officially opened yet--at least until the end of the lap. Heikki's manager and trainer were said to be going down to the medical center.

Lap 26, Rubens Barrichello, Jenson Button, and Kazuki Nakajima entered their white box at the same time. Nick will be penalised after the Safety Car get in.

Lap 27, Barrichello seemed to have some problem with his front wing, as it broken and detached from his car along the way, and he was forced to had another stop to replace the nose. Heikki was getting evacuated, and he seems to be 'okay'. Well, hope Heikki's alright.

Lap 28, SC in, and the race restarted. Kimi leads.

Lap 30, there are debris in the middle of the track. Penalty for Nick Heidfeld was announced: Stop and Go Penalty for refuelling when the pit lane as not open. News from medical center: Heikki was stable.

Lap 34, Nick took his penalty, and dropped down to 16.

Lap 35, Alonso suddenly drove his car so slowly, and retired because of engine problem. His engine was burned, and yellow flag was on. Again. Was this day a day full of nightmare for Renault?

Lap 36, Rubens out, probably because a problem with his car. Kimi set another fastest lap.

Lap 39, Yellow flag was off. Kimi led Kubica by 6s. Sato pitted and rejoined 14th.

Lap 42, Nico Rosberg was out of the race due to engine failure. Yellow flag.

Lap 45, Fisi pitted for 8,9s and rejoined twelfth. Felipe set a fastest lap, while Kimi led Lewis by over 7s

Lap 46, Heidfeld entered his white box and rejoined right behind Fisichella.

Lap 47, Felipe pitted and rejoined fourth. Kimi set a new fastest lap. Trulli also pitted in this lap.

Lap 48, Kimi had a pitstop and remained in the lead after that. Lewis and Kubica in, too, rejoined third and fourth, respectively.

Lap 49, Nick Heidfeld was fighting so hard with Fisichella. News update about Heikki: He was conscious, stable, and in his way to the hospital. Thanks God.

Lap 52, Nakajima pitted together with Glock. Kimi leads Felipe by 2s.

Lap 54, Glock's wing was broken after a collide with DC's car. He was forced to pit again.

Lap 55, DC's car was damaged, his tire was broken, forcing him to drive slowly. Heidfeld overtook Fisichella and now, he's ninth.

Lap 56, DC finally made a stop to change his tire.

Now, it's 9 laps remaining, the stewards said that Heikki was still alright and he'll be racing in Istanbul. The incident between Glock and Dc will be investigated after the race.

4 laps remaining, Kimi still led the race, while in the middle of the pack, DC passed Sato for 12th place.

In the end, Kimi Raikkonen won the Spanish Grand Prix, leading his team mate Felipe Massa and McLaren's Lewis Hamilton. The rest point earners were as the following: Robert Kubica, Mark Webber, Jenson Button, Kazuki Nakajima, and Jarno Trulli. A perfect day for Kimi (though he had a 'not very good' start), as he secured the pole position, won the race, and set the fastest lap of the day.

Anyway... Get better soon, Heikki! *cross fingers*

Lap 37, Heikki overtook Button.

Lap 41, Felipe in the white box. 7,3 s and rejoined third. Kubica also pitted. Kimi led the race.

Lap 42, Alonso pitted and went back to the track in fourth place.

The race ended after 58 laps, with Felipe Massa ad the winner, followed by Lewis Hamilton and Kimi Raikkonen. Behind them, there are Robert Kubica, Nick Heidfeld, Fernando Alonso, Mark Webber, and Nico Rosberg. Heikki Kovalainen finished twelfth.

This is Felipe third consecutive win at Turkey, and it puts him back to the title fight, also closes the gap between Kimi's points and his (also Lewis') points. Kimi leads the championship with 35 points, while Felipe ties Lewis with 28 points in second place.

Mikir, ECU di F1 yang baru itu buatan McLaren yang bekerja sama dengan Microsoft, kan? Atau cuma McLaren?

Masalahnya, kalau dikerjakan bersama Microsoft.. Ga takut di-hack? Serius, biasanya produk-produk Microsoft itu banyak sekali 'lubang'nya..

Baru beberapa hari yang lalu Menkominfo mengumumkan akan memblokir situs porno, udah banyak yang protes. Yeah, para penjaga warnet yang kebanyakan pelanggannya adalah penggemar situs-situs tersebut..

Euh. Ini bukannya membantu negara jadi lebih baik, malah protes.. --;

28 March 2008

Akhir-akhir ini, muncul film buatan politisi Belanda, Geert Wilders, yang menjelek-jelekkan Islam. Katanya sih (Myu belum liat sendiri soalnya. MALES.), film buatan Wielders ini diawali dan diakhiri dengan kartun yang menggambarkan Rasulullah, serta menunjukkan sejumlah pernyataan dari ulama radikal dan mengutip ayat Quran yang diselingi dengan gambar penyerangan, dimulai dengan peristiwa 11 September 2001, penyerangan di Amerika Serikat, penyerangan 2004 di Spanyol, dan pembunuhan terhadap sutradara Belanda Theo van Gogh. Wilders juga mengatakan bahwa Islam dan Al Qur'an itu berbahaya. *sighs*

Film ini diprotes di berbagai negara (negara non muslim juga ada yang mengkritik, lho! Termasuk Belanda.), bahkan Sekjen PBB Ban Ki Moon juga mengutuk aksi Wilders. Liveleak.com pun terpaksa menghapus film itu dari situsnya setelah diprotes massa.

Beritanya ga bisa di link semua ke sini, soalnya kelewat banyak. :P Yeah, silakan gugling sendiri deh... Dijamin banyak.

Btw.. Apa yang dikatakan PM Belanda Jan Peter Balkenende sangatlah benar: "...feeling offended should never be used as an excuse for aggression and threats."

Kemarin, jutaan orang di lebih dari 25 negara di dunia berpartisipasi dalam event Earth Hour. Selama satu jam alias enam puluh menit (dari jam 8 hingga 9 malam), lampu-lampu dan segala macam barang elektronik macam TV, AC, komputer, dll akan dimatikan. Dari Suva di Fiji sampai Christchurch di Selandia Baru. Bahkan, Google juga berpartisipasi dalam event ini. Situs itu bahkan meninggalkan pesan di halaman depan pada saat event seperti ini: "We've turned the lights out. Now it's your turn."

Sayang, Indonesia belum banyak berpartisipasi dalam event ini.

Sekedar pemberitahuan, event ini awalnya diadakan di Australia. Kalau Miyu ga salah, awalnya itu dari Sydney. Tahun 2008 ini, Earth Hour mulai menjadi event dunia, dan kota-kota yang berpartisipasi bisa dilihat di sini. Kalau yang ini, daftar kota-kota yang berpartisipasi.

O ya, Earth Hour juga punya blog, lho! Klik di sini. Event-event Earth Hour, berita-berita yang berhubungan dengan Earth Hour.. Semua ada di situ!

Ah, ya, dan di sini, kita bisa mendaftar dan ikut berpartisipasi dalam event-event Earth Hour. Bahkan, kita juga bisa ikut merancang event Earth Hour selanjutnya. Dan.. Kita sign-up di situ atau tidak, kita bisa merancang event Earth Hour kita sendiri. Isn't that cool?

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Katanya, pukul 13.30 WIB telah terjadi hujan es di beberapa daerah di Bandung. Miyu ketiduran, sih, waktu itu, jadi reportase tentang 'Eropa dadakan' di Bandung... Silakan lihat blog Ambu. :P

Pas naik angkot ke Gramedia, ngeliat ada tempat sampah di dalam angkotnya. Kreatif!

Tapi.. Kepakai nggak yah? Soalnya, biasanya orang di angkot mah main buang sampah ke bawah kursi aja...

2 April 2008

Menyusul kasus film anti Islam buatan politisi Belanda, Wilders, pemerintah RI berencana akan menutup situs-situs berbagi video semacam YouTube, dll, yang masih memiliki dan belum menghapus film itu dari situsnya.

Euh~ Yah, sebenernya Miyu agak gimanaaaa~ gitu. Tapi ini mah lebih baik daripada orang-orang yang mendemo Kedubes Belanda atau Konsulatnya. Kaya yang di Medan itu, tuh. Sampai bakar-bakaran segala. Maksudnya, Kedutaan Besar Belanda di sana dibakar sama pendemo, gitu.

Kalau anarkis seperti itu, berarti membuktikan kalau orang Islam itu seperti apa yang dikatakan Wilders kan? *sighs*

Mending usulnya Mahathir. Boikot produk Belanda! Ga anarkis, kan?

Tapi~ Produk Belanda yang dijual atau dipakai di Indonesia apa ya? Ada yang tahu?

3 April 2008

Ehm, ehm. Adakah yang tahu jawaban atas pertanyaan Miyu ini:

"Kenapa ya, di Indonesia, kalau mahasiswa demo, ujung-ujungnya pasti ricuh?"

Ada yang bisa jawab? Ya~ Itu kenyataan loh. Nyaris 90 persen dari demo mahasiswa yang Miyu lihat di berita itu ricuh.

Apa karena mahasiswa itu suka belajar dan kelewat pintar, jadi mereka ga waras? Apa karena mereka yang kreatif itu kelewat stres dengan pelajaran, jadi mereka melampiaskan stres mereka dengan berbuat ricuh (yang menurut mereka kreatif)? Idiot.

Tadi sempat mampir ke Reuters dan menemukan ini. Ga bisa dipercaya bahwa anak-anak umur 9 tahun seperti mereka bisa memiliki pikiran untuk menyiksa hingga membunuh orang. Bahkan di situ dibilang, mereka nyaris melakukan itu..

It's just.. Unbelievable.

Yups. Safety section. Di situ, berbagai macam info tentang peralatan dan orang-orang yang mendukung keamanan di F1 bisa kita dapatkan. Dari F1 jaman dahulu kala sampai F1 yang modern.

Baca ini. Akang takut sama hiu? Euh, padahal Miyu cinta banget sama yang namanya orca, hiu putih, dan buaya (selain bangsa kucing).. :P

Pas dikasih tahu ke Ambu, Ambu bilang jangan-jangan dia itu Viktor Krum in disguise.

Nah, dia kan juga takut laba-laba.. Jadi, Akang itu Viktor Krum apa Ron Weasley, sih?

Hasil kualifikasi hari ini (10 besar): Kubica, Felipe, Akang Lewis, Kimi, Heikki, Nick, Jarno, Nico, Button, Abang Fernando.

*peluk-peluk Kubica dan Felipe* Yeah, pole pertama untuk pembalap Polandia pertama!

Btw, Akang ama Kimi duduknya sebangku ya? *digetok Ambu dan Ryorin: Emang sekolah?"

Btw lagi.. *lirik sponsor tiga besar* Dell terbukti lebih cepat daripada AMD dan Intel. Jelas, Dell kan buat server.. Wekekek. *ditimpuk*

Err.. Tapi kalau BMW-Sauber di belakang, berarti server lagi lambat? *kabur sebelum dilempari helm*

Ambu kirim PM, ada FF yang menceritakan bagaimana kalau Hagrid diganti Steve Irwin. Baca di sini.

Sumpah, kacau! Sayang, fokusnya ke belakang-belakang malah jadi Severus-Minerva, bukan Steve...

6 April 2008

Minggu depan.. Yeah, sekitar minggu depan lah. Lupa tanggal berapa, wikikik! Ada pilgub Jabar. Tapi, males. Yah, masalahnya bukan karena Miyu bukan asli Bandung, tapi..

Meskipun dulu didaftarin ama pak RT (beneran, loh! seinget miyu..), sumprit, MALES. Abis, ga tau mau milih siapa.. Kayanya ga ada yang bisa menarik hati saya.. T.T

Jadi, Ambu ikut milih ga?

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

SMS ga jelas antara Miyu dan Ambu...

Ambu: "Abah inkonsisten! Antara magrib s/d j'8 mlm ga boleh nyalain tipi kec mlm libur, anak2 mesti blajar, tp kl ada balap...bubar de smuanya :P"
Miyu: "Wekekek! Kaya miyu. Kl lg pundung, tipi ga blh nyala biar bisa ngomelin Gunz. Tp kl ada blpan.. Diem dh sambil nonton... :P"

*siyul-siyul*

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Felipe menang! Huhu.. Akhirnya ga tikusruk. Takut dimarahi Abah? :P

Kimi nomor dua, terus ada Kubica, Nick, Heikki, Trulli, Webber, ama Rosberg.

Akang? Setelah problem waktu start, selip entah di lap berapa di awal race... Akang finis nomor 13. Angka sial.

*peluk siapa ya? ga tau deh, di Bahrain ini.. :P*
*ya udah, nyerah, peluk Ryorin aja*

Felipe-Kimi mah sama Stefano, Raffaela, ama Jenni aja, yah? *kabur*

O iya, hidup BMW dan Ferrari! *nari pom-pom*

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Btw, ada yang lucu. Waktu mau semprot-semprotan, Stefano tiba-tiba ngabur ke belakang, nyumput. Felipe mah kejar aja terus sambil cengar-cengir ga jelas. Terakhir, begitu Stefano kembali ke podium buat foto, Kimi ngasihin botol yang (Stef ga tau? :P) isinya soda buah, bukan sampanye itu. Sambil cengar-cengir ngga jelas juga.

Ampun, deh! Anak-anak! (Baca: calon-calon bapak yang masih kaya anak-anak. *kabur*)

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Satu lagi! Lagu kebangsaannya Italia jadi keren sewaktu dimainkan di podium kemarin! Drum-nya itu, lho~ Sumpah, keren banget!

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Dapet ini dari Ryorin, yang dapet dari Celestine...

Dua hari yang lalu gw ketemu dengan salah seorang AFI (Akademi Fantasi Indosiar). Selain lepas kangen gw juga dapat cerita seru dari kehidupan mereka.

Di balik image mereka yang gemerlap saat manggung atau ketika nongol di teve, kehidupan artis AFI sangat memprihatinkan. Banyak di antara mereka yang hidup terlilit utang ratusan juta rupiah. Pasalnya, orang tua mereka ngutang ke sana-sini buat menggenjot sms putera-puteri mereka. Bisa dipastikan tidak ada satu pun kemenangan AFI itu yang berasal dari pilihan publik. Kemenangan mereka ditentukan seberapa besar orang tua mereka anggup menghabiskan uang untuk sms. Orang tua Alfin dan Bojes abis 1 M. Namun mereka orang kaya, biarin aja.

Yang kasian mah, yang kaga punya duit. Fibri (AFI 005) yang tereliminasi di minggu-minggu awal kini punya utang 250 juta. Dia sekarang hidup di sebuah kos sederhana di depan Indosiar. Kosnya emang sedikit mahal RP 500.000. Namun itu dipilih karena pertimbangan hemat ongkos transportasi. Kos itu sederhana (masih bagusan kos gw gitu loh), bahkan kamar mandi pun di luar. Makannya sekali sehari.. Makan dua kali sehari sudah mewah buat Fibri. Kaga ada dugem dan kehidupan glamor, lha makan aja susah.

Ada banyak yang seperti Fibri. Sebut saja intan, Nana, Yuke, Eki, dll.

Mereka terikat kontrak ekslusif dengan manajemen Indosiar. Jadi, kaga bisa cari job di luar Indosiar. Bayaran di Indonesiar sangat kecil. Lagian pembagian job manggung sangat tidak adil. Beberapa artis AFI seperti Jovita dan Pasya kebanjiran job, sementara yang lain kaga dapat/jarang dapat job. Maklum artisnya sudah kebanyakan. Makanya buat makan aja mereka susah. Temen gw malah sering dijadiin tempat buat minjem duit. Minjemnya bahkan cuma Rp 100.000. Buat makan gitu loh. Mereka ga berani minjem banyak karena takut ga bisa bayar.
Ini benar-benar proyek yang tidak manusiawi. Para orang tua dan anak Indonesia dijanjikan ketenaran dan kekayaan lewat sebuah ajang adu bakat di televisi. Mereka dikontrak ekslusif selama dua tahun oleh Indosiar.. Namun tidak ada jaminan hidup sama sekali. Mereka hanya dibayar kalo ada manggung. Itu pun kecil sekali, dan tidak menentu. Buruh pabrik yang gajinya Rp 900.000 jauh lebih sejahtera daripada mereka.

Nah acara ini dan acara sejenis masih banyak, Pildacil juga begitu. Kasian orang tua dan anak yang rela antre berjam-jam untuk sebuah penipuan seperti ini. Seorang anak pernah menangis tersedu-sedu saat tidak lolos dalam audisi AFI. Padahal dia beruntung. Kalau dia sampai masuk, bisa dibayangkan betapa dia akan membuat orang tuanya punya utang yang melilit pinggang, yang tidak akan terbayar sampai kontraknya habis. mungkin ada yang tertarik buat ngangkat cerita itu ke media anda? Gw punya nomer kontak mereka. Gaya hidup mereka yang kontras dengan image publik kayanya menarik untuk diangkat. Ini juga penting agar anak-anak dan orang tua di Indonesia kaga tertipu lebih banyak lagi.

JUDI SMS MENGGILAAAA ........

Tiap stasiun televisi di Indonesia mempunyai acara kontes-kontesan.
Tengok saja misalnya AFI, Indonesian Idol, Penghuni Terakhir, KDI, Putri Cantrik, dsb.
Sejatinya, tujuan dari acara ini bukan mencari bibit penyanyi terbaik.
Acara ini hanya sebagai kedok. Bisnis sebenarnya adalah SMS premium.
Bisnis ini sangat menggiurkan, lagi pula aman dari jeratan hukum -- setidaknya
sampai saat ini. Mari kita hitung. Satu kali kirim SMS biayanya --anggaplah- - Rp 2000.
Uang dua ribu rupiah ini sekitar 60% untuk penyelenggara SMS Center (Satelindo, Telkomsel, dsb).
Sisanya yang 40% untuk "bandar" (penyelenggara) SMS.
Siapa saja bisa jadi bandar, asal punya modal untuk sewa server yang terhubung ke
Internet nonstop 24 jam per hari dan membuat program aplikasinya.
Jika dari satu SMS ini "bandar" mendapat 40% (artinya sekitar Rp 800), maka jika yang mengirimkan sebanyak 5% saja dari total penduduk Indonesia (Coba anda hitung, dari 100 orang kawan anda, berapa yang punya handphone? Saya yakin lebih dari 40%), maka bandar ini bisa meraup uang sebanyak Rp 80.000.000.000 (baca: Delapan puluh milyar rupiah).

Jika hadiah yang diiming-imingkan adalah ? rumah senilai 1 milyar, itu artinya bandar hanya perlu menyisihkan 1,25% dari keuntungan yang diraupnya sebagai "biaya promosi"!
Dan ingat, satu orang biasanya tidak mengirimkan SMS hanya sekali.
Masyarakat diminta mengirimkan SMS sebanyak-banyaknya agar jagoannya tidak tersisih, dan "siapa tahu" mendapat hadiah.
Kata "siapa tahu" adalah untung-untungan, yang mempertaruhkan pulsa handphone.
Pulsa ini dibeli pakai uang.
Artinya : Kuis SMS adalah 100% judi. Begitu menggiurkannya bisnis ini,
Kondisi ini sudah sangat menyedihkan. Bahkan sangat gawat.Lebih parah daripada zaman Porkas atau SDSB.
Jika dulu, orang untuk bisa berjudi harus mendatangi agen, jika dulu zaman jahiliyah orang berjudi dengan anak panah, sekarang orang bisa berjudi, hanya dengan beberapa ketukan jari di pesawat handphone!

@Idols: IMO ngutang buat menang itu kesalahan diri sendiri. Karena memang bukan begitu caranya untuk menang! Mestinya kan (mestinya) pemilihan itu purely dari penonton yang suka ataupun nggak. Jadi harusnya ya terima hasil aja di-eliminasi atau nggak. Well, kalo tentang kontrak dua tahun dengan gaji amat rendah, gue setuju bahwa itu emang keterlaluan.

Nah? *untuk kali ini, silakan menebak apa yang saya pikirkan :P*

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Lagi-lagi dari Ryorin, dan ini dia sendiri yang nulis.. Miyu mah males nulis ulang.. :P

Selebaran Penipuan di ATM-ATM

What can i say... Semakin lama penipuan gaya baru-tapi-lama ini belakangan semakin marak. Di beberapa ATM yang sering saya datangi, ada setumpuk selebaran yang mengiming-imingi pembaca dengan uang banyak dalam waktu sedikit. Dengan mentransfer uang dalam jumlah kecil, pembaca dijanjikan keuntungan berlipat ganda.

Don't they ever learn? Ini adalah bentuk lain dari arisan piramida, dan hal ini sebenarnya bisa dikategorikan tindak pidana.

Selebaran itu ada karena cara peniuan tersebut bisa berhasil. Tebakan saya, selebaran itu sengaja 'dicurangi' dengan cara menampilkan transfer ke empat rekening berbeda yang sebenarnya dikendalikan oleh satu orang. Dengan begitu, sang penipu bisa menggaruk masuk uang banyak sekali... ini perkiraan saya:

Asumsi:
n = Rp 20.000,-
dalam 1 selebaran ada 4 rekening yang harus disetor
selebaran yang difotokopi dalam 1 siklus oleh tiap orang yang meneruskan selebaran = 20 eksemplar x 5 lokasi = 100 selebaran
selebaran yang 'termakan' oleh orang yang tertipu = 5% per siklus = 5 selebaran (jadi ada 5 orang yang tertipu pada setiap siklus)
ongkos fotokopi per lembar = f = Rp 75,-
satu eksemplar selebaran = 4 lembar
z = Profit

z = ((5 x 4n) + (5 x 5 x 3n) + (5 x 5 x 5 x 2n) + (5 x 5 x 5 x 5 x n)) - (f x 4 x 100)
<=> z = (20n + 75n + 250n + 125n) - 400f
<=> z = 470n - 400f
<=> z = (960 x 20.000) - (400 x 75)
<=> z = 19.200.000 - 30.000 = 19.170.000

Bayangkan, bila dalam 10-20 hari masyarakat memberikan hampir 20 juta rupiah pada seorang penipu... apalagi dalam beberapa selebaran nominal "sumbangan" yang diminta lebih besar. Rugi besar dunia akhirat, apalagi apabila anda ikutan ingin menikmati cipratan kerja keras orang-orang lain di bawah anda. Na'udzubillah min dzalik, pantes negara kita dihantam krisis melulu :P

Maka daripada itu, saya mengajak anda sebagai manusia-manusia yang berpikir untuk tidak tergoda untuk mengikuti atau membuat tindak penipuan yang sama. Bila anda menemui selebaran sejenis itu di ATM sekitar rumah anda, Segera buang semua selebaran ke tempat sampah! Kalau perlu, buang selebaran-selebaran itu ke tempat sampah di luar ATM yang kotor, bau, dan banyak lalatnya, biar ga ada orang tergoda buat memulung dan menirunya :P Sendiri, saya mungkin tak bisa berbuat banyak, tapi bersama, kita bisa :P

So.. Masihkah kita mau ditipu dan dibodohi begitu saja?

Akhir-akhir ini Miyu suka nonton acara 'Masa Kalah sama Anak-anak' di TVOne. Yang membawakan acara itu Helmi Yahya dan Becky Tumewu. Bagus, loh. Melihat seberapa dekat orang tua dan anak, dan yang Miyu liat selama ini, ga banyak orang tua yang dekat dengan anaknya. Selain itu, kadang, anak-anak lebih tahu dunia orang dewasa macam grup band, sinetron, dsb, daripada pelajaran.. (Kalo anak-anak tahu tentang dunia anime, kartun, or whatever is that, Miyu maklum.. Wekekek!)

Ironis banget, nggak, sih?

O ya, dan pengen senyum sendiri dengerin ucapannya Helmi Yahya pagi ini, bahwa acara itu bukannya untuk 'menjelek-jelekkan' orang tua atau apa, tapi untuk melihat seberapa dekat mereka dengan anak-anak mereka, semakin mendekatkan mereka pada anak-anak, dan... Bahwa orang tua sesekali juga harus mengalah dan/atau mengaku kalah/salah (kalau anaknya bener :P). Masalahnya, beberapa orang tua masih bertahan dengan paham kuno bahwa kalau anak salah, anak harus mengaku salah. Tapi, kalau orang tua tersebut salah atau kalah, mereka berhak untuk tidak mengakui kesalahan atau kekalahan mereka. Kalau perlu, mereka bisa menggunakan segala cara agar mereka dibenarkan walau salah.

Yeah, ga semua. Tapi lihat saja contoh nyata yang ada di keluarga Miyu. *sighs*

Doktrin nomor 1: Perkataan orang tua selalu benar.
Doktrin nomor 2: Apapun yang dilakukan orang tua selalu benar.
Doktrin nomor 3: Kalau orang tua salah bicara atau melakukan kesalahan, lihat nomor 1 dan 2.

Adakah orang tua lain yang seperti itu? Semoga tidak. *berharap Ambu-Abah, Uncle Greg, dan Grammy B ga seperti itu*

Well.. Actually I don't want to write this, but...

Well, okay.. Around one week until about three days ago, I had a fight with Ryorin. The problem might be unimportant for you, but I feel raged at that time, as he didn't come to my house, didn't tell me that he would not come, and.. lied to me.

What lie, anyway? Saying that he's sick, but at that very time, he's online! Ah, geez...

After that, I went totally angry, and cursed that his sickness wouldn't be cured. Ever, especially if he still lied to me. Unfortenately, he did it. So, Ryorin, you got sick for nearly 3 days, right? *evil laughs*

Yeah, but that's not the main thing. The day I found that he's lying, I wanted to break off the relationship. Really wanted that. But Mikan said that it's not good to decide on something while I am still in anger, and Ambu said that I shouldn't say something like that. At first, I didn't heed to their words. But later, when I stumbled on reading something about someone, I finally realized that Ambu and Mikan's words are right, so I reconciled with Ryorin. Well, I can't promise I would not say such a thing anymore, since if I am angry, I often say things like 'I'll kill you' or something like that..

Ah, my. I got lost into words. So, well, actually, I want to confess something. Not a confession, maybe, but more to an expression of thank you to someone who reminded me that I still love Ryorin so dearly, though he never met me, never had a conversation with me in real world or in net world (though I do sometimes imagine 'talking' with him)...

Thanks, Kimi Raikkonen! If you and Ryorin read his, I want to say that loving you both is just... A pleasure for me. More than that, actually.

(Well, I just realized that my wish when I was in 10th grade is already granted: to have a boyfriend like Kimi. Well, not in apperance, but in personality. For me, Ryorin's personality is.. much like Kimi's. So.. yeah, you know.)

Ah, and if you want to find out why I wrote those two words in my signature in HPI, that's the reason.

Kiitos, Kimi!

Yeah, Miyu juga setuju kok, Mbu, sama ucapan salah satu blogger yang ini (namanya mas Eko, kan?): "..TV dengan sinetronnya yang tidak mendidik, harusnya diblok duluan, karena penetrasinya lebih besar."

FORMULA 1 GRAND PRIX- SAKHIR, BAHRAIN 2008 - RACE REPORT

Hello, everyone! Nice to meet you again. This weekend, our dearest F1 drivers would race in Bahrain, Sakhir to be exact, where they really need traction control, because the circuit is 'in the middle of nowhere', and the wind carries sands to the track. So, could the drivers handle this circuit with all the talents and car they have? Because as we have known, FIA prohibited the use of traction control.

Also, FIA had confirmed minimum lap time for qualifying. It's likely would be different for each circuit, and in Bahrain, they have announced that the minimum lap time is 1m39s between the second safety car line (50 m before Turn One) and the first safety car line (after Turn 15). Any car exceeding the time between those points will be deemed to have been driven unnecessarily slowly. The purpose of this is to prevent drivers on qualifying laps from being impeded by other drivers who are travelling more slowly. You can read the full news here.

For the qualifying, BMW's Robert Kubica gives BMW maiden pole position, ahead of Ferrari's Felipe Massa and McLaren's Lewis Hamilton. The world champion, Kimi Raikkonen is fourth, Heikki Kovalainen fifth, Nick Heidfeld sixth, Jarno Trulli seventh, Nico Rosberg eighth, Jenson Button ninth, and Fernando Alonso tenth.

It's maybe a little bit off-topic, but I heard that Kubica undertook a slimming program before the start of the season. Well, he said that now he is weighing much less than normal, but his program enhanced the performance of his car, so yeah.. You know.

And now, let's enjoy our 57 laps...

When the lights went out, McLaren's Heikki Kovalainen started from the outer side of the track, passing his team mate Lewis Hamilton who was unfortunate. Lewis' car was a bit stalled at that time, so he had a bad start and dropped down to ninth place. Meanwhile, Felipe Massa had a very good start and took the first place from Robert Kubica. Kimi Raikkonen third, Heikki Kovalainen fourth. A Toro Rosso which was driven by Sebastian Vettel retired after entering the gravel.

Lap 2, suddenly there's oil on track on Turns 5, 6, 7, and 8. I didn't know where the oils came from, but this caused yellow flag, and some drivers gone wide because of the oil, including Lewis.

Lap 3, Kimi overtook Kubica, while Lewis pitted after the problem he has in the previous lap along with David Coulthard. The young British rejoined 18th after the pit stop.

Lap 4, Lewis was about 50s behind the race leader, Felipe. Nick Heidfeld passed Heikki, so at that time, he became fourth.

Lap 5, Kubica set the fastest lap.

Lap 8, Felipe set a new fastest lap.

A few laps after (around lap 10 or so), I heard an interview with Vettel. I didn't really get it, anyway, but I heard something about Fisichella.

Lap 11, Renault's Nelson Piquet Jr. was battling so hard with Toro Rosso's Sebastien Bourdais.

Lap 13, a new fastest lap for Felipe. Lewis now is over one minute (1:02.513, to be exact) behind him.

Lap 16, Kimi set a fastest lap.

Lap 18, Kubica pitted and rejoined ninth. Again, Kimi set the fastest lap.

Lap 19, Kubica drove a little bit wide on turn 11. David Coulthard had an accident with Jenson Button, causing Button to lose his front nose.

Lap 20, Jenson pitted, but it seems that he has another problem that caused him to retired.

Lap 21, Kimi entered his white box. Rejoined fifth.

Lap 22, Felipe had his turn to have a pit stop and get back in first place. He also set a new fastest lap. Nick Heidfeld also pitted at this lap.

Lap 23, Mark Webber pitted. He added fuel for approximately 30 laps to his car and rejoined eighth. Lewis ran a bit wide, but he managed to pass Anthony Davidson.

Lap 29. Lewis tried to pass Giancarlo Fisichella, but he failed as Fisi closed the line and drove away from Lewis.

Lap 31, Lewis was battling with Fisi again.

Lap 32, Lewis finally passed Fisi, while Kimi set a new fastest lap. Lewis entered his box shortly after and rejoined 16. He was going out of the pit lane when Felipe was overlapping other drivers.

Lap 38, Nelsinho went off the track.

Lap 39, Kimi pitted and rejoined fourth. Felipe set the fastest lap.

Lap 40, Felipe in the white box. He rejoined third, about 3-4s in front of his team mate.

Lap 42, Kubica finally did his second stop for the day. 7,2s and rejoined sixth.

Lap 43, Nelsinho retired. Davidson was 0,2s behind Sato. Looks like he want to overtook his team mate. Heidfeld led the race and set a fastest lap.

13 laps remaning now, Heidfeld not yet to had his second stop. He was 21s ahead of Kubica. Felipe was second, Kimi was third. Finally, at the end of the lap, he entered the pit lane for a stop and rejoined fifth behind Kubica. Felipe now led the race.

10 laps remaining, Heikki pitted for 7,0s and rejoined fifth.

8 laps remaining, Kubica was slightly faster than Kimi. Heikki set the fastest lap of the day.

5 laps remaining, Rubens Barrichello was chasing Fernando Alonso. He didn't overtook the Spanish driver, anyway.

It's only 4 laps remaining, and Lewis Hamilton passed Kazuki Nakajima, made him thirteenth at the time.

Finally, Felipe Massa won the Bahrain Grand Prix for the second time in a row, followed by the reigning world champion Kimi Raikkonen and Robert Kubica on second and third place. Nick Heidfeld fourth, Heikki Kovalainen fifth, Jarno Trulli sixth, Mark Webber seventh. The final point of the day is gone to Williams' Nico Rosberg.

With this result, Kimi Raikkonen takes the lead in the Driver's Championship with 19 points, 3 points ahead Nick Heidfeld (16 points). Lewis Hamilton shared the third place with his team mate Heikki Kovalainen and Robert Kubica.

Meanwhile, at the Constructor Championship, BMW-Sauber leads with 30 points, followed by Ferrari with 29 points, and McLaren-Mercedes with 28 points. Has BMW-Sauber made a huge leap, seeing at their results so far? Probably. So, let's wait for the next race in Barcelona. There, we would see another battle between the top three teams. For now, let's wait and cross our fingers for our beloved drivers.

HOL IDOL 2008 - SURVEY

Well, this year I am participating in the HOL Idol 2008 Audition. Yeah, I didn't made it to the next stages, but..

Faye made this survey for everyone to answer! So, yeah, you can read what I write as an answer. :P

Is this your first time doing HOL Idol?

No, it was my second. And I'm *really* enjoying it, though I didn't make it to the next stage.

What role does singing play in your real life (voice lessons, choirs, bathroom singing)?

Well, I've never take any voice lessons (except from my Mom who was a choir member when she was young) nor join any choir, but I do love singing. Anytime, everywhere. Err.. To be honest, I do not sing in the bathroom, nor when eating. :P

Do you play an instrument?

I used to play organ when I was in high school. Well, I still have the instrument, but rarely played it.

What do you like best about your voice?

Umm~ What should I say? It's hard for me to say. But maybe... Well, it's cute. (Especially when I sing anime songs.. ^^;)

What do you feel you need to work on most?

Diction, holding tones on some notes... Well, for sure I have to improve my singing in many aspects.

What do you use to record your submissions?

Well, this year's submission was recorded using Sound Recorder. Yeah, the one you get with your computers.. And most of all my recording were recorded with it.. But, *coughcough* recently I got Sony Sound Forge, Cakewalk SONAR, and a headset microphone, so... I started playing with it. :D (Well, maybe I would use it for my next audition *lol*)

Why did you pick your audition song?

Well, I love the song, and my boy friend picked it up as my audition song. Also, I was thinking about a song that works well a capella.

What kind of music do you listen to? Sing to?

I do hear almost every kind of music, as long as it's not too -er, how do I say?- noisy. About singing, I love to sing Japanese songs -especially those *cute* anime themes-, love songs, and some songs from my favorite band/artists.

Name three singers whose voices you wish you had:

Umm... Actually, I love my own voice. But if I should choose, I wish I had voice like Hashimoto Miyuki, Natsukawa Rimi (both of them are Japanese female singers), and Celine Dion.

Name one song that describes you perfectly:

Well, it's hard to pick.. Yeah, actually, I don't know what song describes me perfectly, since I'm way too complicated. That's The Way It Is by Celine Dion, maybe?

If you could have lunch with any band, artist or composer, dead or alive, who would it be and why?

Currently it would be IOSYS, a Japanese musical ensemble and doujin circle/group. They remixed the songs from Touhou Project series and their work are really great.

RANDOM QUESTIONS

1. Name and describe three of the people most influential to you.

Since it's people, I must exclude Allah from this list. Well, that doesn't mean Allah is not influential to my life. Besides Allah The Mighty One and His Prophet, Muhammad, the three most influential to me is: Mum, Michael Schumacher, and my boyfriend -Ryorin.

2. Have you ever fell in love with a fictional character? Why?

Sure. There are many reasons, sometimes I love the character because they're good-looking, great, etc, but the most often is that because the character has some similiraties with me. Well, we could take Harry Potter's Severus Snape or Rozen Maiden's Suigintou. They have some things in common with me, so I love them.

3. Where would you like to live? Why?

Well, it should be somewhere in the village. Most of our villages are still not polluted, so I think it would be better to live there, and I really wanted to live somewhere I could see the wildlife, the nature.

4. Which cemetery left the most impression to you? Why?

Cemetery, eh? Well.. None, actually. I hardly ever impressed by a cemetery.

5. If you are given a choice to define your body's state of matter, what would you choose? Solid, liquid, colloid/suspended, or gaseous? Why?

This is a difficult question to answer, for sure. Umm... Liquid, maybe? Well, no rea~son~

6. What part of your body do you consider most beautiful/attractive? Why?

My eyes. well, I don't think the other parts of my body as 'attractive', especially to men. And.. I just love my brown eyes.

7. If you are given the opportunity to be a fictional character for a day, who would you be? Why?

Could I choose someone from my original fiction? I really wanted to be Miyuri Nekonomiya, the main character from my unpublished novel: Chibineko Hime. Miyuri is a bright, cheerful and carefree girl; a happy-go-lucky person (unlike me who nearly always feels 'down'). Plus, she's a cat. Oh, and I really wanted to see and taste lemondrop fruits.. Her favorite.

8. If you are given the option to master the use of one melee/thrown weapon, what will you choose? Why?

Ummm.. A whip? Simple, I love that weapon. :P (In case you want to know, 'cute whip' is my weapon of choice.. *lol*)

9. Name a non-feline animal that you like, and why :P

Non-feline, eh? Well, it's pretty obvious, I think. I love orcas so much. They're.. Umm.. I can't explain why, but... In my own terms, those predators are.. Terribly cute.

Anyway, I loved great white sharks and crocodiles, too.

10. Name five things that you would want to do in two years.

Finishing my current study at the university, get married, go to Japan, continue to Master degree, published a poetry book.

11. If you are given total control of an aspect of life (distance, time, speed, etc), which aspect would you choose and why?

It's a battle between time and speed, but.. Time. It would be lovely to me if I could control time, because I can go back to past time or the future anytime I want, stop the time... And it could make our life more effective..

12. Name ten things that you could fit into a shoe-box (all of them must fit into one shoebox).

A cellphone, a book, a bottle of perfume, a mp3 player, a wallet, a brooch, a pen, a lipgloss, a key, and a silver bracelet. Unfortunately, my stuffed cat couldn't fit into the shoebox...

13. Which would you prefer, a dish containing something that tastes like chicken or a chicken dish which tasted like something else? Why?

Both of them, I think. But maybe a chicken dish which tasted like something else is better. Well, what if that something that tastes like chicken is prohibited for me to eat? I'm a Muslim, anyway. Surely, it doesn't matter if that something is safe for me to eat. *lol*

14. Name three of the most complicated gadget that you've ever physically repair (i.e. reattaching loose cables, soldering the joints, etc).

A fabric cutting machine, umm... I forgot what else. Imagine yourself, then. :P

15. Name the most complicated script that you are able to mostly comprehend. Note that you are not neccessarily fluent on the language that uses that script.

If it's the most complicated one, then it would be Chinese text.

Hello there, buddies. Nice to meet you again. Well, it's been a week, right?

As you might have been expected, I'm on a really good mood these days, especially since Kimi's winning on Malaysian Grand Prix last Sunday. Well, too bad Felipe made a mistake that costs Ferrari 8 points...

Anyway, here's Chemistry In Life Fifty-third Edition.

ANOTHER VIEW OF MYU-CHAN

*Indonesian mode ON*

21 March 2008

Dapat kabar, katanya ada YouTube yang 'dibintangi' Ahmad Dhani, dan menurut informasi dari yang udah nonton, itu orang ngejelek-jelekin blog dan internet. Katanya nih, katanya, yang buka blog itu orang-orang bodoh dan kurang kerjaan.

Nah, iya mas, kalo orangnya kaya sampeyan. Bisanya ngomong ga jelas. Nah kalau isi blognya bermutu kaya punya saya *narsis mode ON* atau Ambu Dian, atau... Umm, siapa lagi ya yang merasa isi blognya bermutu? *kedip-kedip*

Mas, mas. Kita bukan orang bodoh, lho, kalau isi blog kita bermutu dan keren abis (terutama saat musim balap berlangsung, bagi saya. *grins*).

Having, writing, and visiting blogs doesn't mean we're idiots, right? It's our right to do so... IDIOT Ahmad Dhani, that's it.

Menteri Komunikasi dan Informasi Muhammad Nuh (Pak, maaf kalau salah ejaan nama, yah. ^^) mengatakan kalau situs-situs prono alias bokep alias terserah-deh-elu-nyebutnya-apaan, bakal diblokir mulai April nanti. Dan rencananya, pemblokiran ini akan dilaksanakan hingga bulan Mei, jadi selepas Mei, diharapkan semua situs porno sudah terblokir.

AMIN!

Eeeh~ Pak, pak, kenapa Friendster kaga diblokir juga? Sori yah buat pecinta Friendster, tapi di Indonesia, fasilitas baru FS justru membuat bandwidth internet terkuras banyak... Beurat, mas, mbak.. --;

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Karena Ayat-Ayat Cinta, KPI memutuskan mengadakan KPI Award untuk acara-acara dan film-film berkualitas. Bagus, kalau ternyata benar terwujud dan yang jadi juara memang yang berkualitas dari segi isi, bukan dari banyaknya penonton.

Komentar Ryorin waktu Myu bilang ini: "Bagus, jangan cuma Panasonic yang punya award."

Hihihi. Setujuh, eh, sedelapan deh!

22 March 2008

Nonton berita, dan ada berita tentang taksi khusus wanita di India. Katanya, di sana tingkat pelecehan seksual terhadap kaum hawa masih cukup tinggi, sehingga diadakanlah taksi khusus itu. Semuanya serba untuk wanita, mulai dari supir wanita hingga perlengkapan dandan (bahkan penghapus cat kuku juga ada!).

Uwaaa~ Coba di Indonesia juga ada...

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Ambu tiba-tiba SMS. Myu disuruh nyari Abah waktu kualifikasi...

Abaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah~ *garuk-garuk tanah* Ga bilang-bilang kalau emang rencana ke Malay!

Huhuh, beneran. Kalau tau beneran, Myu mau nitip salam. Buat Felipe sama Kimi, sekalian ma istri-istrinya, sekalian ama Akang Lewis. Sekalian jeweran buat Abang Fernando, peluk hangat buat Stefano Domenicali dan Chris Dyer, juga buat Uncle Todt yang ternyata datang juga ke Sepang...

Sayang, Abahnya ga ketemu. TV-nya ga nyuting Abah sama sekali. T.T Tapi tanpa peduli kalau Abah ga ke-syut, Myu terus SMSan ama Ambu, ngomongin betapa saktinya kedatangan Abah ke Malay, sampai Felipe-Kimi bisa bagus waktu latihan...

Abah, Abah, kupingnya merah beneran ga waktu Myu ama Ambu ngegosipin? Kekekek.

Eh, iya. Bahkan Ambu ama Myu udah mengkhayal ga jelas. Apa itu, er.. Mulai dari lotek sampai bandrek. Lewis, Kimi, Sev, Dean, Sam.. Felipe... Clark... (walau Ambu ga terlalu suka. Nah, Ambu, katanya ga suka Kimi. Demi saya kah? :P *seret Jenni dan Raffaela juga*)

Err.. Abang Fernando dikemanain, Mbu? Kita buang? *grins* *kabur dari Abang*

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Barusan beli F1Racing bulan Maret, dan tebak apa yang ada dalam bonus Season Previewnya.

Yeps, it was an horoscope. Or horror-scope, as they said.

Horror-scope ala F1Racing: Kalau saja tim konsul ke peramal, maka tak akan ada masalah dengan pembalap.

Well, Myu ga mau ngomongin siapa yang cocok dan siapa yang ngga, tapi ada satu yang lucu. Waktu mereka menulis soal Kimi-Felipe (satu-satunya yang serasi menurut mereka), mereka bilang kalau kemampuan komunikasi Libra membantu Taurus lebih optimis. Yah, gitu lah kira-kira. Masalahnya adalah, setelah kata 'Libra', mereka menulis ini: '(Kimi?)'.

Yeah, baby. Perhatikan tanda tanyanya. *ditimpuks Kimi pake sepatu*

Wekekek. Ya, ya, saya tahu kamu lebih banyak senyum sekarang. Tapi bukannya Kimster kami masih lumayan pelit omong ya? *ngacir dari paddock sejauh mungkin*

Well~ Mungkin mereka mau bilang kalau kamu sekarang sedikit lebih komunikatif dan lebih banyak senyum, Kimster...

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Hasil kualifikasi: Felipe, Kimi, Heikki, Akang Lewis, Trulli, Kubica, Nick, Webber, Abang Fernando, dan Timo Glock.

Tuh kan, Abah memang sakti! *peluk-peluk Abah, Felipe, dan Kimi*

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Baru beberapa jam setelah kualifikasi usai, Heikki dan Akang Lewis dipenalti gara-gara menghalangi pembalap lain (Abang Fernando dan Nick). Masing-masing dapat penalti 5 posisi dan harus start di posisi 8 dan 9, besok.

Sementara itu, Kazuki Nakajima juga dipenalti sepuluh posisi akibat tabrakan dengan Kubica di balapan Australia kemarin. Jadi, dia harus start dari posisi paling buncit...

24 Maret 2008

Laskar Pelangi mau dibuat filmnya. Katanya juga, buku itu mau diterjemahkan dalam bahasa Hungaria.

Selamat ya, mas Andrea.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Dan~ Kimi menang balapan! *peluk-peluk Kimi* Kubica kedua, Heikki ketiga. Terus, ada Trulli, Akang Lewis, Nick, Webber, sama Abang Fernando.

Felipe? Dengan kerennya spin, terjebak di gravel dan keluar balapan. *pats Felipe*

Nah, Ambu malah SMS gini: "Ini jawaban Abah ttg Massa: Tunduheun eta mah. Tadi wengi maen gapleh sareng abah dugi ka subuh... :("

*cetuk-cetuk meja* Abah~ Kumaha si Abah teh.. Mau balapan malah diajak main gaple ampe subuh.. Pantes Felipe-na tikusruk ka gravel...

Eh, tapi kok Kimi-nya ga-pa-pa? Ga ikut main gaple kah? *berpikir bahwa mungkin Kimi udah ketiduran pas ronde pertama main gaple sama Abah dan Felipe, atau mungkin dia sudah terbiasa main gaple sambil tidur*

*dilempar kacang*

*ngeloyor kabur*

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Ada kejadian lucu tapi ga enak di podium: Matanya Kimi kemasukan champagne sampai kelilipan. Jadinya, itu orang sempat lari ke belakang, entah nyari air buat cuci muka atau apa, tapi diseret lagi buat foto sebelum kabur lagi. Dan masih diseret lagi ke press conference...

Sampai-sampai itu disinggung di SMS Ambu dan press conference juga..

Ambu: "Kimi kapireumpeunan! Er..apa ya bhs Ind-nya, matanya kemasukan champagne. Tatian.."

Press conference about 'champagne incident':

"Q: There was champagne under the eye-lid there.
KR: Yeah, we should put it in the mouth not in the eye. Things go wrong sometimes. Anyway it has been a perfect weekend."

Wekekek. Kimi, makanya ati-ati kalau di tengah. Yang dua di samping super semangat sih kalau nyemprot champagne.. *ngumpet dari Kimi, Kubica, dan Heikki*

Atau.. mungkin kita perlu sediakan kacamata hitam untuk di podium lain kali... Supaya kalau semprot-semprotan atau minum, champagne-nya ga nyasar ke mata.. TAGHeuer, maybe? *ditimpuks dengan sukses*

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Err.. Selain insiden champagne, ada pembicaraan juga soal 'lone-race'.

Well, Kimi (terutama setelah ga ada Felipe), Kubica, gimana rasanya balapan tanpa ada satu orang pun di depan dan di belakang kalian? Nyaris lebih dari 20 detik, kan, jaraknya?

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

BTW... Ambu, ga marah kan kalau SMS nya di-ekspos ke sini? Wikikik. :P

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Umm~ Nyaris kelupaan sesuatu: yang ngasihin piala ke Kimi = PM Abdullah Ahmad Badawi. Dan yang nerima trofi konstruktor, Stefano Domenicali. Huhuh... *peluk-peluk Stefano*

24 March 2005

Ngomong-ngomong soal balap, meskipun kita tahu Ananda Mikola prestasinya sekarang ga begitu bagus, begitu pula dengan pembalap A1 kita Satrio Hermanto, ternyata.. Ternyata nih, ada dua kakak-beradik yang mungkin kelak bisa menjadi bintang Indonesia di ajang Formula 1.

Namanya Ryan dan Rio Haryanto. Ryan yang lebih tua sekarang mengadu nasib di Formula Renault Asia, dan prestasinya cukup lumayan. Agak lupa sih peringkat ke-berapa, tapi bagus. Dan orangnya pun cukup low profile.

Adiknya, Rio, juga sama-sama low profile dan berprestasi. Walau masih di gokart (CMIIW), anak itu kemarin mencapai peringkat 2 Asia. Ga tertutup kemungkinan, kalau mereka tetap berprestasi seperti sekarang, mereka bisa jadi pembalap-pembalap hebat di masa datang. Bahkan mungkin mereka akan jadi Daddy Michael Schumacher, Kimi Raikkonen, atau Akang Lewis Hamilton bagi saya (baca: mungkin kelak saat mereka masih membalap, saya akan jadi fans setia. Itu kalau mereka terus berprestasi..)

Yeah, mudah-mudahan prestasi mereka ga bagus hanya di ajang gokart dan Formula Renault...

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Katanya.. Ada kemungkinan Kimi pindah dari Wollerau ke tempat lain, gara-gara rumahnya diganggu anak sekolah..

Beritanya di sini. Sayang, beritanya pakai bahasa Jerman.. T.T MSS, terjemahin dong~ *colek-colek MSS*

*pats Kimi, anyway* Duh, yang sayang anak-anak tapi malah digangguin anak-anak... Kimster, ujian buat suatu saat nanti kalau jadi ayah beneran.. *hugs*

*Indonesian mode OFF*

FORMULA 1 - MALAYSIA 2008 - RACE REPORT

Hello, nice to meet you again. It's the time for Malaysian Grand Prix in Sepang, and this year, it's a special one. It's the 10th Malaysian Grand Prix, and people there put all the efforts to make the event succeeded. Even they made a television commercial starring kids that talking about Formula 1. Well, it was in Indonesian television, and I admit it was great. Funny, anyway, since it was kids. You know, I love kids, especially those smart kids. *grins*

Well, I didn't hear many gossips around about Malaysia, but again, it's a night race issue, though I'm not sure about it. There were also prediction of potential rain and thunderstorm, they said it's 20% chance of rain. As for the spectator there, I think I want to ask one of my friend's husband, Abah Dudy, who went to Malaysia this weekend. Since Saturday Qualifying I was chatting with Ambu Dian about his trip to Malaysia. Even she asked me to find Abah Dudy if he's being on TV. Not found, anyway. The TV didn't put him on camera. Anyhow, I bet it was so crowded. Yeah, it's 10th Malaysian Grand Prix.

Oh, and Ferrari's CEO Jean Todt was there, too.

Now, about the qualifying. Ferrari's Felipe Massa secured a pole position, over than half a minute in front of his team mate, the reigning world-champion Kimi Raikkonen. Third and fourth, respectively, were the McLaren duo, Heikki Kovalainen and Lewis Hamilton. Unfortunately, the Silver Arrows boys were penalised 5 grid position for impeding another driver, namely Fernando Alonso and Nick Heidfeld. There was suspection if they intended to do so, but despite it was right or wrong, I heard FIA would change the qualifying regulation a bit. Maybe it was about the in-lap and out-lap speed, because when you're in your out-lap so slow to save your fuel, you can make another driver (especially those right behind you and still in their hot lap) crazy.

Back to the qualifying result. Since they were penalised, Heikki and Lewis moved down to eighth and ninth grid, respectively, and the original fourth until ninth people in qualifying were moved up, each two grid position. Jarno Trulli would start the race behind Felipe Massa, the pole sitter. Then there would be Robert Kubica, Nick Heidfeld, Mark Webber, and former world champion Fernando Alonso. On tenth position, there was Toyota's Timo Glock. Also suffering from penalty was Kazuki Nakajima, who was penalised 10 grid position for a collision with Robert Kubica during the previous Australian Grand Prix. He was qualified 18th, but he should start the race from the back of the grid aka the 22th grid.

Now, onto the lap per lap race report. The Ferrari duo made a decent start that day. Felipe toyed side-by-side with his team-mate Kimi, and eventually led the race. Kubica also had a lovely start, being third place after passing Trulli who moved down to fifth. Webber fourth, and Lewis sixth, just in front of Heikki. Meanwhile, Sebastien Bourdais aka Le Seb spun onto the gravel and had to be retired from the race. Yellow flag was on.

Just a few turns after the start, the McLaren's star Lewis Hamilton did a good move. He moved to fifth position after passing Trulli, while his Finnish team-mate moved down to eighth.

Around lap 2, Timo Glock spun. Unluckily for him, he had to be the second reitrement of the day. The next lap, Nico Rosberg entered the pit for a front wing change. Probably because an accident that involved him that I didn't see.

Lap 4, the race leader Felipe Massa set a fastest lap.

Lap 5, there was a fight between Nick Heidfeld, David Coulthard and Fernando Alonso on the track. At first, DC was sandwiched between Nick and Alonso, but as Nick smoothly made his way, DC and Alonso were still on a hard fight.

At the end of lap 6, Adrian Sutil was out of the race, followed by a yellow flag a few seconds after, just as the race leader started another lap. At the middle pack, Trulli was pushing Lewis so hard, but the 2007 best rookie put all his effort to maintain his position.

Lap 9, Kimi set a fastest lap, around 1:36.707.

Lap 11, Lewis seemed to have a problem with his tire. His front left wheel didn't really move like it should be, and the white part of it had (almost) run out while the white part of the right tire had not.

Lap 15, another fastest lap for the world champion Kimi Raikkonen.

Lap 16, Webber pitted, followed by Felipe. The Ferrari driver spent about 8.5 s in the white box. Nick and Trulli were also had a stop, while the new race leader set another fastest lap before entered the pit for a stop one lap after it. He spent 7.5 s and rejoined just in front of his team-mate Felipe.

Lap 18, the rising star Lewis Hamilton had a pit-stop. He seemed to had a problem with the tire, anyway, and it made him lost a few more time in the white box. 19.9 s, and rejoined in 11th place.

Lap 19, another McLaren-Mercedes driver pitted. The Finn had no problem, but the team had another plan for him that day, and he stopped in the white box 10.2 s. Robert Kubica still led the race, not yet to stop until the end of the lap. He was there for 8.2 s and rejoined third, just behind the Ferrari duo. Meanwhile, the McLaren star seemed to still having a problem with his tire, probably caused by a brake problem.

Lap 24, Nico Rosberg was passed by another car. I didn't really notice who was that, but it seemed to be a Honda. DC pitted, while there was also a pit analysis for the Ferrari duo. From what they showed to us, Kimi was slightly faster than Felipe.

Lap 26, while the reigning world champion still led the race, the rising star now moved onto seventh place. Pit analysis for McLaren drivers: Lewis was a lot slower than Heikki, after that tire problem.

Lap 27, Fernando Alonso was ninth, while his former team-mate Lewis was struggling behind Mark Webber.

It was one lap past the half of the race, and Super Aguri's Takuma Sato had to taste the gravel for a while. Luckily, he went through that problem and not retired.

Lap 30, Rosberg was attacking Fisichella. Kazuki Nakajima pitted and Rosberg also entered the white box just a few seconds after for 12.0 s.

Lap 31, Felipe spun out of the track and unfortunately, he was trapped in the gravel. He failed to rejoin into the track and it caused Ferrari to lost one of their driver. Fourth retirement of the day. Yellow flag was on, again.

Aaaand~ It's just 22 laps to go. The race leader and the remaining soul of Ferrari, Kimi Raikkonen, leads by over 22s ahead of BMW's Robert Kubica. It wasn't raining yet, anyway.

19 laps to go, the lonely race leader (since there's no one in front of him and behind...) set a new fastest lap. The Ferrari crews seemed to be getting ready for his second pit-stop. And it was true. Kimi entered Ferrari's white box in the end of the lap, and rejoined in second place.

16 laps to go, while Trulli pitted, another Toro Rosso driver had to be retired. Sebastian Vettel's engine burned, and the fifth retirement of the day made the Malaysian Grand Prix a horrible day for the STR-Ferrari squad. Another yellow flag of the day. One lap after, Alonso pitted and rejoined in tenth.

13 laps to go, Kubica pitted for 6.5 s, but he rejoined third, just behind McLaren's Kovalainen. Kimi Raikkonen leads.

12 laps remaining now, and Lewis Hamilton entered the white box after a team radio communication. 8.9 s, and he rejoined in front of Nick Heidfeld. One lap after him, his Finnish team-mate also entered the pit for another stop. The Finnish youngster spent 7.2 s in the white box and rejoined third.

10 laps towards the end of the race. Car 17 aka Honda's Rubens Barrichello again to taste a penalty after speeding in the pit lane. It was a drive through penalty now. Well, you might remember that he was penalised during the last race in Australia because an accident at the pit (it was a 10 s stop and go, anyway. CMIIW.).

5 laps remaining, Alonso was so close behind Webber, while Lewis moved closer and closer to Trulli.

It's the final lap, and Jenson Button slipped out of the track into the grass for a while. On the other side, Nick Heidfeld set the fastest lap of the day, just a few turns before the finish line.

And finally, the current world champion Kimi Raikkonen tasted his second victory in Sepang ahead of Robert Kubica and Heikki Kovalainen. The rest points earners as follow (fourth to eighth, respectively): Jarno Trulli, Lewis Hamilton, Nick Heidfeld, Mark Webber, and Fernando Alonso. No rain at all, anyway.

McLaren still leads the constructor championship with 24 points, with their Lewis Hamilton leading the driver championship with 14 points. However, Kimi's winning made him back in the hunt for the championship with 11 points. The points were also for the team, which was third in the championship now, behind BMW-Sauber.

Aaaand~ The articles from F1.com, as usual. Give full credit to those lovely F1 reporters.

ANOTHER VIEW OF MYU-CHAN

Mum tiba-tiba nge-SMS: 'Dik, kapan kamu mau nikah?'

Euh, sumpah, kaget bacanya. Perasaan baru kemaren teman-teman Mum nanyain pas di pesta, 'kapan nyusul (nikah?', eh, tahu-tahu Mum udah nanyain.

Yeah, Myu juga ga tau gimana jawabnya. Bales SMS juga cuma gini: 'Ga tau. Emang kenapa?'

Kata Mum sih biar bisa siap-siap... Dan dikasih tahu juga, kalau nikah itu, mending umur 24-25 ke atas, baik cewek atau cowok. Lebih siap lahir dan batin. Malah katanya, kalau cowok, lebih tua malah lebih bagus...

Euh~ Paling cepet 2 tahun lagi.. Atau 5 tahun lagi?

20 February 2008

Baru kemaren di-SMS, eeeeh~

Sekarang, ada event pernikahan Buster-Sinistra di IH, dan percayalah, Myu disuruh Shaula buat ngegantiin dia jadi Sinistra sementara...

Yeah, baca dan ngepost di tret itu serasa jadi pengantin beneran... Deg-degan, keringat dingin... Bahkan nyaris nangis terharu waktu Sinistra jalan ke altar.. Mana si Lily yang jadi Slughorn juga ikutan kaya bapak-bapak yang melepas anaknya ke orang lain.. Deg-degan ga jelas semua gitu.. T.T

Jadi pengen nikah beneran~ T.T

Geez... I don't know what happened with me recently. Feels so.. Mentally tired and sick. Sometimes I think I'm insane, 'cause...

I don't like anybody else get any attention from him. NOT ANY. I just want him to give attention for me.. Because..

HE IS MINE.

Yes, he's mine.. And no one can take him over me...

Definitely no one...

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Hari ini maunya libur. Ga nge-net, di rumah aja istirahat. Eeh, pas iseng ngebuka HPI. AMIT-AMIT. Heran gw, anak Indonesia sekarang IDIOT apa ya? Bisanya cuma bikin repot dan susah orang... Dan pikirannya kelewat modern sampai posting soal ciuman yang dihapus malah diprotes.

Oh, PLEASE. Emangnya dia ga mikir apa masih ada anak-anak di bawah umur di HPI? Atau anak sekarang udah kelewat modern dan dewasa sampai ga mikir bahwa topik begituan bisa jadi topik yang tidak layak dibicarakan?

For God's sake, please go to Batshit Insane Flan's Hell, you idiots. --;

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Kata Frank Williams dan Daddy Michael Schumacher...

'Kalau mau berhasil, kita harus kerja keras.'

Hmm..

*Shikieiki-shit nagging mode ON*

*cetuk-cetuk meja*

Kimi, ayo, kerja yang bener, jangan molor mulu sama ngerjain FF doang!

Eh, itu mah Gunz ya? Sebodo ah. Kimi, kerja keras biar jadi juara lagi. Gunz, kerjain TA, bantuin urus HPI, jangan yang diurusin kalo sadar cuma FF doang! --; Akang dan Felipe, kerja keras juga! Abang, perbaiki sikap dan mental! Kalo Piquet Jr ternyata mirip Akang diriku tak menanggung. :P

Err.. Diriku kayanya juga harus kerja keras.. T.T

15 March 2008

Gosh... What happened with Kimi's car today?

Seriously dude, it makes me... Somewhat anxious.

Yeps. Di akhir sesi Q1, entah kenapa Kimi tiba-tiba lambat dan nyaris mogok di trek. Sebelumnya dia juga sempat lambat dan menghalangi Kubica waktu masuk trek. Well, akhirnya dia ga ikut Q2 dan Q3.

Katanya sih, masalahnya ada pada sesuatu bernama 'electronic fuel pump'... or something else.

Masalah yang membuat Kimi mogok di pintu masuk pit? Oh, god.

Euh, well~ Chris, bisa dibenerin ga?

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Baru kualifikasi sudah ada yang kecelakaan. Webber, di Q2, sempat selip dan kehilangan kontrol, lalu..

Menabrak.

Q2 akhirnya sempat dihentikan selama beberapa menit.

Yeah. Untung cuma sebentar.

Btw, Vettel nomor enam di Q2!

Ada apakah dengan juara dunia (baca: Kimi dan Abang Fernando)?

Yeah, kok kayanya dua orang itu terlempar ke belakang.. Eh, itu mah ke tengah yah? Abang di grid ke-12, sementara Kimi ke-16.

Abang, kita tahu Renault sedang berusaha bangkit. Kimi... Masalah 'pompa bahan bakar' atau entah-apa-itu-namanya?

Sheesh~

*timpuks kru Ferrari* AYO, BENERIN! --;

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Well... Kimi said this:

"Clearly I am disappointed. A few corners from the end of my in-lap, I had a problem with the electronic fuel pump which forced me to stop near the pit lane and so it was impossible for me to get back to the garage to try and fix the problem. These things happen, but it's definitely not the best way to start the season. Now we must try to do our best to pick up some points tomorrow, because it is important to score something in every race."

Yeah, I'm also certainly disappointed today, Kimster. *hugs*

Yaaaaaaaaa~ Gimana gw ga kecewa? Quidditch Raven kalah! T.T Tapi lawannya Dietrich.. Heuh, menyebalkan. --; *dilema kucing vs pikkukapinoida*

Euh, tapi dunia belum berakhir!

Anyway... Read the other's comments here.

16 March 2008

Hanya satu kalimat untuk menggambarkan keadaan hati Myu hari ini: I am certainly disappointed.

Btw, Akang, congrats! *hugs*

*pats Kimi* Kimster, lain kali jangan kelewat gila yah.. T.T Myu tahu sih, dirimu pengen dapat poin semaksimal mungkin, tapi ya.. Jangan maksa, please. You know your limit, right?

Beneran, kalau ga kelewat maksa pas mau nyalip Heikki, Kimi masih bisa finis... T.T Dan sebagai fans, gw sendiri ga maksain dia dapet podium hari ini. 8 besar udah cukup sebenernya, tapi Kiminya kelewat maksa, dan mobil Ferrari juga lumayan bermasalah... T.T

*seret Akang Lewis, Kimi, dan Felipe buat mojok*

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Well, okay.. He got a point!

Yeps. Dari berita di F1.com, Barrichello di-diskualifikasi karena keluar dari pit pas lampu merah.

Yah, om, pas lampu merah pan harusnya berhenti... Bukan jalan...

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

I wonder why he still likes me, loves me when he realized that I am the one who get him into trouble... I don't know why he gave me all those stuffs, attentions, and so on, when he realized I am just a troublemaker... I really don't understand why...

If I could turn back time, I really wish that I never met him.. But I can't, so I wish that I could set him free. Really free.

In another words, I wish that I'll die pretty much soon. So he'll live freely... and happily... Because if I am alive, he'll never be happy and free...

Ryorin, if you read this, answer me. You're never happy with me, right?

17 March 2008

Okay.. Baca ini.

Isn't that great?

Yeah, kalau mereka mendukung usaha untuk menjadikan bumi lebih hijau tanpa harus membuat hidup kita 'tak-nyaman', kenapa kita ngga? Kita bisa kok, hidup 'hijau' sekaligus modern...

Di regulasi juga, mereka mewajibkan minimal 5,75% bahan bakar berasal dari biomatter.. Yeah, Myu juga ga nyangka. Meskipun katanya sebagian dari mereka masih ragu untuk memakai biofuel sepenuhnya, mereka bikin regulasi seperti itu. Dan katanya, semua mobil nanti harus bisa memakai biofuel, dengan kata lain, mesin yang dipakai harus cocok dengan biofuel. Great!

Btw, guys, sudah ada perkembangan tentang KERS?

FORMULA 1 - AUSTRALIA 2008 - RACE REPORT

Hello! Glad to see you again on the all-new 2008 season of Formula 1. From this year on, there will be no more traction control so the drivers have to really work with the car, and one gearbox would be for four consecutive races. But they said that the gearbox is not locked, so they could change something if important. I don't really could explain this, but you can read the full rules and regulation for 2008 here.

The 2008 season began at Albert Park, Australia, as usual. Before we talk about the qualifying the day before, well.. I heard that Australia would be deleted from the official calendar if they do not want to organize a night race at this circuit. But I also heard that Australian people -some of them- do not want if there's a night race in Australia. Well, we can't please all the people in the world. When we want to please the local people in some countries, we can't please the fans in Europe, but if we do all we can do to please European F1-lovers, the others in the other part of the world may get disappointed. It's a tough matter, I think.

So, let aside that 'night-race' talk. Lewis Hamilton secured a pole position, while Robert Kubica got the second place after a bit reckless hot lap. Heikki Kovalainen, Felipe Massa, Nick Heidfeld, Jarno Trulli, Nico Rosberg, David Coulthard, Timo Glock, Sebastian Vettel, third to tenth, respectively. What about the former double-world champion Fernando Alonso and our 'beloved' world champion, Kimi Raikkonen? Too bad, they're qualified number 12 and 16, respectively. Kimi had some problem with the car the previous day, his car suddenly slowed and finally stopped on Q1 after a problem with the electronic fuel system. I didn't really understand, so you have to ask Chris Dyer or the mechanics, or maybe Kimi himself if he understands and willing to tell you in detail. :)

Mark Webber also had a bitter day at the qualifying. When he's on track, he suddenly lost control of his car, and his car spun onto the grass. The engine seems to be blown, but he's alright. I heard that the problem is the.. Brake. Ask his mechanics for sure.

Anyway, Timo Glock had to suffer from a double penalty, 5 grid position for an unscheduled gearbox change plus another 5 for impeding another driver during the qualification. Adrian Sutil also had to start the race from the pit lane, since he changed his engine and gearbox.

And.. Here's my personal report for the race.

The race started with a chaos in the middle, if not back of the pack. Lewis Hamilton started the day nicely, while Felipe struggled because he's dropped back to 17th. Kubica second, Kovalainen third, and Rosberg fourth. Another Ferrari driver which is the running world champion, Kimi Raikkonen, had an amazing start plus getting some advantage from the chaos, being on eighth place at that time. Vettel and Fisichella retired because of the disaster, and Safety Car was deployed.

On the beginning of the second lap, Felipe entered the pit for a nosecone change. There was also a replay of the start on TV, but I didn't really get it. So far, five drivers were retired (Webber, Fisichella, Vettel, Davidson, Button),all caused by the chaos at start.

Lap 3, the Safety Car was in. The race restarted, and Takuma Sato now in tenth place behind Alonso and ahead of Nelson Piquet Jr. aka Nelsinho.

Lap 5, Kimi was struggling to get pass Rubens Barrichello.

Lap 9, Kazuki Nakajima overtook Nelsinho, while Adrian Sutil was out due to a technical problem. Felipe now on 16th, while his team mate seemed to start struggling with the car.

Lap 13, Felipe was 15th after overtook Nelsinho. Sato, Glock, and Alonso were on eleventh to thirteenth place, respectively. Lewis Hamilton still led the race, about 10 seconds ahead of Robery Kubica.

Lap 14, Kimi was first on the speed trap. He was running on approx. 306.73 km/h at that time.

Lap 15, Lewis set the fastest lap. BMW crews were getting ready for a pit stop.

One lap after, Kubica pitted for 8.6 s and rejoined behind Kimi. Kimi himself was still struggling behind Rubinho, he tried to got pass Rubens sometimes, but Rubens always closed the way.

Lap 17, the race leader Lewis Hamilton entered the pit and had a long one. 9.2 s, and he's dropped to fourth place behind Nick Heidfeld. Kimi passed Rubinho, causing him to be on the sixth place at that time.

Lap 20, Trulli had some problem with the car when he pitted. Felipe passed Nakajima.

Lap 21, Kimi was third. Kovalainen pitted and rejoined right in front of his Finnish senior. At that very time, Kimi was flying. Well, Flying Iceman?

Lap 26, DC was out of the race after a collide with Felipe which made his car all broken. Second Safety Car deployed. DC himself sounds very angry during a short interview after the incident. Kimi was trying to get in the pit, but it was not opened yet. Alonso also seemed that he want to take an advantage from the Safety Car appearance.

31 laps to go, they said it's about 40 degrees centigrade there in Australia. I heard a bit radio talk from Kubica's crew about Kimi. Yup, he hasn't pit-stopped yet.

Lap 28, Alonso, Nakajima, Glock, Kubica, all entered the pit for a stop. Kimi certainly didn't take the opportunity from the Safety Car, because it is in at the end of the lap.

Lap 29, as the race restarted, Kimi attacked Kovalainen. The two Finns were fighting so hard, and Kimi was way too spirited, so he spun onto gravel after almost overtaking his junior. Felipe was out due to an engine trouble.

Well~ I was screaming 'NO!' at that time, anyway. Well, he really looked like he's pushing too much. From my point of view, it seemed off limit. But, too bad, Kimi was a little bit crazy, I think. Yeah, HE'S CRAZY. *sighs*

About one lap after, Kimi pitted, while Nelsinho was out because of accident damage. Takuma Sato also retired, and the yellow flag was fluttered.

25 laps to go. Hamilton still led the race, while Kimi must struggle at eleventh. He's at the last place at that time, anyway.

19 laps remaining, Kubica seemed to slow down a bit. He's running about 3s/lap slower than the race leader Lewis Hamilton. 11 drivers remained on track.

16 laps to go, Rubinho fifth, Sebastien Bourdais sixth, Kimi still on eleventh, struggling behind Timo Glock. He tried to get over Glock, but he spun. Lucky for him, he could still continue with the race. Lewis had another stop for 8.6 s and dropped into fourth. Fastest lap for Kovalainen.

14 laps remaining. Heidfeld was in to the pit, while Glock crashed and causing a third deploy of the Safety Car for the day.

13 laps to go. There was a little disaster in Honda's pit. Rubens left with the fuel rig still on, causing one of his crew hurt.

11 laps remaining and Heikki Kovalainen pitted for the last time. Alonso was in, too. Kimi now eighth, while Safety Car was still on the race track. Anyway, the stewards gave Rubinho a ten second stop and go penalty which was done one lap after.

Kubica was out after an accident, 10 laps before the race finished. Alonso passed Kovalainen and Kimi, who seemed to have some major problem.

8 laps to go with about 8 or 9 drivers that was still racing, and now Kimi was seventh. Alonso fifth.

5 laps remaining, and it was a bad day for the world champion. His car suddenly slowed down, and he's out from the race. Apparently because of an engine failure.

The next lap, Bourdais also slowed down and 'out of the race'.

2 laps before the race ended, Kovalainen passed Alonso, but Alonso overtook Kovalainen again at the beginning of the final lap.

As a result, McLaren's Lewis Hamilton won the race, followed by Nick Heidfeld and Nico Rosberg, second and third place, respectively. Alonso fourth, Kovalainen fifth, Kazuki Nakajima sixth, Sebastien Bourdais seventh, and the running world champion who had a bad luck today came in eighth place, despite he fact that he didn't make it to the finish line.

Well, Rubens Barrichello should be sixth, but he's disqualified after proven that he exited the pit lane after his stop when the light was still red. Well, of course, Uncle Rubinho, red means you couldn't go yet... *sighs* It means you have to stop if you're on the road, right?

It was a bad weekend for Ferrari and a good one for McLaren. The British team lead with 14 points ahead of Williams, while Ferrari got only one point, behind the STR-Ferrari team which go home with 2 points on hand. But will McLaren keep winning and having no problem at all like this weekend? Will Ferrari revived and take back the lead? We'll see later, during the 17 remaining races. Of course, there is still hope. Well, I hope they would analyse the engine problems.

That's the end of my report. If you ask, my feeling is really mixed. Lewis is a great man, but he's a McLaren driver, while Kimi got a point, yet didn't make it to the finish. It was really too bad, because it was only 5 laps before the race ended.

Well~ As usual, you can read these (credits to all FIA and Formula1.com crews, of course. Thanks for giving us great news and articles everytime, guyz.):

Chemistry In Life Fifty-first Edition

2008-02-15T14:20:00.009+07:00

Hi! Long time no see, eh?

Well, sorry for the delay of this edition. I planned to post it on December last year, but Asuka experienced some problems for a few days, and I get too lazy to write anything for this blog. And then, I was distracted by many things.. So, well, you know.

Umm, this edition would contains not too much English contents, since I'm too tired after typing all the 'Another View' contents, thanks to F1Racing. *sigh* Sorry for the inconvinience.

And, if you want me to write something more serious.. Wait for the next edition. You can also see my new blog here.

Ah, er.. Well, that's all, I think. Happy reading. :)

Well, jawabannya benar, cuma.. Myu waktu itu ngebalasnya gini: "Bukan! Besok itu tanggal 18!"

Yah, emang bener kan? Habis 17 kan 18.. Masa habis tanggal 17 langsung tanggal 1? *hiperbolis banget sih Myu*

18 December 2007

Ryorin SMS, katanya dia baca kalau Daddy Schuey nyetir taksi. Trus Myu iseng onlen lewat Sakuya, dan nemu di sini, Daddy nyetir taksi, rada ngebut juga sih kayanya, ngejar pesawat ke bandara. Dan percayalah, supir taksinya yang asli dikasih tips sebesar 100 euro! Total, dengan ongkos 60 euro, si supir taksi dapat 160 euro.. Ckckck..

Oh, yeah, Germany's fastest taxi driver.. Cool.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Terus, Ambu juga ngasih tahu kalau Akang Lewis ditilang karena.. Ngebut di jalanan Perancis. Yeah, Akang, jalan raya mah beda sama sirkuit, atuh.. Dan SIM ditahan selama sebulan, euh.. Memalukan.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

May this year be a wonderful and unforgettable one..

9 January 2008

Happy Birthday to Myself! *grins*

Yeah, ulang tahun cuma makan malam ama Ryorin.. Ulang tahun Myu yang paling privat seumur hidup! :P

Eh, sama nonton Golden Compass ding. *disambit popcorn: makasih*

Filmnya keren~

*mengutip komen diri sendiri di HPI*

"Euh, The Golden Compass-nya kereeen! Yang kurang paling beberapa perubahan (yang beda dari buku itu) aja.. Selebihnya, nilai 8 atau 9 deh.

Dan, iya, Pan-nya lucu!

Dan, oh~ Stelmaria yang anggun...

Dan... Siapa sih daemon-nya Scoresby? Dia juga lucu..

Dan.. Iorek! Huhu... *speechless* Pengen punya~

Dan.. *pundung dulu bentar* Saya kecewa, kecewa saya.. KAISA-nya kemanaa~? Apa susah ya cari angsa buat dijadiin aktor film? *digetok sutradara*

Dan.. Adegan Lyra mengacaukan tempat riset itu (Bolvangar bukan sih? Lagi amnesia nih..), dimulai dari waktu Lyra nipu Mrs. Coulter soal alethiometer.. Sumpah, buat Miyu, lucu! *ngakak*

Dan *kebanyakan dan nih*... Heuh, apa ya? Saya mau ngomong apa ya? Lupa... *bingung sendiri*

Om James: Om James, saat Chrissy melihat Lyra dikejar-kejar, Chrissy juga merasakan ketegangan yang sama.. Apakah ada hubungan di antara kami? *ga nyambung*

Btw, pengen punya daemon beneran? Bayangin aja daemon itu ada di dekat kita, walau ga keliatan.. *melirik Themius*

Ambu: Ambu, nyadar ga senjata, err.. *lirik Gunz* Pistol, gitu? Yang dipakai sama Scoresby itu loh (Eh, Scoresby kan?)... Winchester! *cubit-cubit Gunz yang ngasih tau*

Dan, endingnya, err... emang kesannya agak 'menggantung'.. Buat yang udah baca...

O iye, Ambu, di deket BIP, di mana sih itu, kan ada patung tentara apa jenderal gitu ama macannya. Sekilas kok mirip Lord Asriel sama Stelmaria ya? *kabur sebelum dicubit suami*"

Oh, yeah~ Stelmaria~

Semoga amal ibadah beliau diterima, dosa-dosanya diampuni, dan arwahnya ditempatkan di tempat yang terbaik di sisi-Nya. Amin.

5 February 2008

Dapat F1 Racing edisi Februari dan menemukan beberapa artikel bagus.. Tapi pertama-tama, biarkan saya memuji Andrew Hone yang telah memotret Michael Schumacher saat ada bebek terbang di Jerez dengan sangat keren!

That's definitely an awesome photo!

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Wheel-to-Wheel antar jurnalis tabloid, tentang Lewis Hamilton. Well, saya rasa wajar kalau saya tak tahu banyak soal dia.. Tapi.. Myu ga percaya orang yang sering menulis tentang Akang Lewis bahkan hanya tahu (atau lebih tepatnya, dapat mengingat apa yang diketahuinya) sebagian..

It's just unbelieveable.

Dan komentar F1 Racing sungguh keren: "Jangan percaya berita utama. 'Jangan membiarkan fakta menghalangi berita bagus' sepertinya menjadi motto mereka".

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Resolusi Tahun Baru yang menarik.. Flavio Briatore ingin membaca tanda terima ketika membeli sebuah restoran supaya tidak mendapat tim sepakbola yang payah, Jean Todt ingin memutuskan apa nama jabatan pekerjaan saya, Bernie Ecclestone ingin menangguk keuntungan materi di tahun 2008 (dan mengatakan bahwa ia punya satu truk Nintendo Wii..)

...Bernie, gimme one of those Wiis!

Lalu, Kazuki Nakajima ingin menempatkan mobil saat masuk pit dengan benar, Nick Heidfeld ingin berpenampilan seperti Bjorn Borg, Pedro de la Rosa ingin menghapus semua email setelah membacanya, dan James Rossiter ingin kelihatan agak sibuk saat race weekend.

Well, semoga resolusi yang baik terwujud. Anyway, Flav, saya rasa tak ada hubungannya antara tanda terima restoran dengan tim sepakbola.. Dan Pedro, saya tak yakin anda akan rela menghapus semuanya.. :P

Ah, yes. Uncle Todt, aren't you a Ferrari CEO?

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Kolom Eddie Jordan, Alan Henry dan Peter Windsor, seperti biasa, deep, thoughtful, and stunning.

Eddie membicarakan soal tim, terutama BMW, dan saya cukup setuju dengan pemikirannya. Henry membicarakan soal kontrol traksi dan isu keselamatan.Lumayan bagus juga. Sementara itu, Windsor membahas soal revolusi teknologi dan perubahan sikap pembalap: mereka harusnya mempromosikan F1 di musim dingin, dan FIA tak hanya menggunakan mereka untuk kampanye program politik/keamanan di jalan raya. Awalnya tampak tak ada korelasinya, tapi, setelah dipikir-pikir, apa yang dia katakan di situ ada benarnya. Kampanye keamanan berkendara memang penting, tapi pembalap sebaiknya *juga* digunakan untuk mengkampanyekan F1.

Hmm..

Peter, mungkin kita bisa usulkan pada FIA supaya kampanye Safety Road menjadi salah satu ajang promosi F1... Sekali mendayung, dua tiga pula terlampaui. Bagus kan?

*runs away*

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Daddy Schuey jadi konsultan Ferrari. Bagus sekali. Saya senang dia tak benar-benar pergi. Apalagi, tim menyukainya, termasuk kedua pembalap. Felipe jelas dekat pada Daddy, dan kedua pembalap, termasuk Kimi (meskipun ia terlihat 'tidak begitu dekat') menghargai adanya masukan dari seorang Michael Schumacher. Well, bisa terlihat dari wajah bahagia Ferrari saat uji coba bersama beberapa waktu lalu..

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Rem bisa membuat mobil F1 lebih kencang? Tampaknya begitu, setelah ada KERS (Kinetic Energy Recovery System). Well, ini jawaban F1 untuk isu bahan bakar, dan teknologinya pun ramah lingkungan. Saat Anda mengerem, KERS akan menghasilkan tenaga buat mobil Anda, dan dengan demikian, mobil F1 bisa jadi ramah lingkungan sekaligus mendapat tenaga ekstra...

Sayang KERS baru benar-benar digunakan tahun 2009.

Sayang bagian kedua, biaya pengembangannya *masih* mahal. *sigh*

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Wawancara lagi dengan Felipe...

First of all, congratulation for starting a brand new life with Rafaela!

Kata Felipe, pernikahannya indah, di depan keluarga dan teman-teman. Sayang, dia belum bulan madu karena harus segera terbang ke Jerez beberapa hari setelah resepsi.

Yeah, semoga keinginanmu untuk bulan madu saat jeda balapan terwujud...

Lalu, ia tampak bahagia ada Daddy Schuey yang membantu tim saat uji coba, dan mengakui Daddy masih kencang!

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Artikel tentang Kimi Raikkonen. Lagi. Well, saya ingin cerita, tapi kayanya halaman ini akan jadi terlalu panjang untuk dibaca, jadi biar saya berikan poinnya saja..

Seperti biasa, artikel Peter Windsor sangat menarik dan objektif. Ia menulis kelebihan, juga kelemahan seorang pembalap, dan ia melakukan itu pada semuanya, termasuk Kimi. Kali ini, ia menganalisa bagaimana prospek Kimi di tahun 2008, termasuk dari segi kepribadian. Dan ia mengatakan kalau Kimi akan menuai hasil baik tahun 2008... Karena ia pembalap hebat.

Well, ini beberapa poin yang ingin saya, er, bicarakan:
1. Dulu, Kimi (ketika di McLaren) pernah bilang kalau ia cinta balapan, tapi benci sisanya. Ia juga bilang kalau ia ingin memenangkan satu gelar, lalu pensiun.

Respon Windsor? Well, kita semua tahu apa yang terjadi sekarang setelah ia dapat satu gelar, dan Windsor sendiri bilang kalau ia yakin Kimi sudah berubah.

Bukan, bukan karena ia lebih dewasa atau karena ia sudah mempersembahkan satu gelar. Hal itu lebih dikarenakan ia mencintai balapan bersama Ferrari, di mana ia bisa berkembang dan hidup seperti apa yang dia ingini. Karena ia selalu jujur pada dirinya sendiri dan orang lain. Karena seorang Kimi Raikkonen tak berusaha untuk menjadi orang lain atau berada di bawah bayang-bayang orang lain... Kimi adalah Kimi. Dan Ferrari membiarkan itu. Ferrari (di bawah Luca di Montezemolo dan Stefano Domenicali) membiarkannya melakukan apapun yang ia ingini, sebab mereka tahu ia tak akan membahayakan tim (well, itu pendapat saya, tapi saya yakin akan hal itu).

2. Perbandingan Kimi dan Daddy Schuey: Kimi Raikkonen adalah pembalap tulen, murni, dan sederhana. Michael Schumacher? Tulen, murni, dan rumit. Rumit dalam artian ia bisa jadi bos tim yang disegani di pit lane.

Windsor bilang, ia sedang membicarakan kelemahan Kimi. Saya tak yakin benar, tapi tampaknya kelemahan the 'Ice Man' adalah pemikirannya yang sangat sederhana. Dan Domenicali yang muda, santai, ramah, dan cerdas merupakan anugerah untuk menutupi kelemahan ini.

3. Kimi tak tertarik pada 'politik'. Yeah. Sama seperti penulis yang imut ini. *dibantai* Well, yeah, ia tenang dan tak membesar-besarkan masalah.. Yang ini sih beda sama saya! Asli!

Contoh baik adalah saat di Brazil, ketika wartawan bertanya apakah ia ditahan Lewis atau tidak di Q3, ia hanya mengatakan bahwa ia merasa terkadang kondisinya sangat sulit, tapi ia juga berpikir bahwa dia (Lewis) harusnya bisa membuat itu lebih mudah, tapi kembali lagi, seperti yang ia katakan sebelumnya, kondisinya sulit..

Dalam bahasa yang lebih sederhana dan mudah dimengerti, ucapan itu berarti begini menurut Windsor: "Inilah F1. Semuanya berusaha semaksimal mungkin. Begitu pula saya. Ini cuma kualifikasi. Balapannya baru besok. Saya tak mau terlibat masalah ini."

Dan sebenarnya, inilah yang ingin dikatakan Kimi: "Bukan masalah besar; saya bisa menang meski ditahan. Lihat saja."

Dan ia membuktikannya saat itu.

4. Kimi rela mengeluarkan uang untuk membuat sebuah tim F3 bersama sang manajer: Raikkonen Robertson Racing (yang tahun ini turun di Formula BMW dan F3 Inggris).

Well, pikiran Windsor sama seperti saya rupanya. Windsor tak yakin pembalap lain, megastar F1, apalagi saat masih membalap, mau melakukan itu. Mereka sudah sibuk dengan urusan masing-masing. Dan kalaupun ada.. Nampaknya hanya segelintir orang. Apalagi mereka yang membuat tim tak sekedar akibat adanya motivasi tertentu - kesuksesan instan untuk anak atau saudara mereka.

Kimi sangat mencintai balapan, itu alasannya membuat tim. Ia tahu ada pembalap muda berbakat di luar sana, dan ia memberi mereka kesempatan. Cerdas.

Bukan hanya uang.. Ia juga memberi support bagi anak asuhnya di F3, bahkan lebih banyak, walau ia sibuk dengan F1, dan Double R ditangani Anthony Hieatt. Saya sendiri agak terkejut membaca pernyataan manajer Atte Mustonen, Antti Heikkinen: "Ia selalu menelepon setiap sesi kualifikasi untuk melihat perkembangannya (Atte, red.), ia juga tahu kekuatan dan kelemahan Atte. Ia berusaha membantu sebisa mungkin - bukan finansial, tapi dukungan moral."

Well, tampaknya tak seperti seorang Kimi yang biasa kita pikirkan.. Tapi itulah dia. Mungkin karena mereka sama-sama orang Finlandia, tapi itu sudah cukup membuktikan bahwa sebenarnya, Kimi orang yang peduli terhadap sekitar. Hanya saja ia kelewat pendiam dan pemalu di depan publik, atau kita saja yang tak mengerti Kimi...

5. Kimi pemalu (termasuk soal kekurangannya dalam berbahasa Inggris), tapi jelas, ia tidak rendah diri.

Well, tampaknya ini bisa membuat kita berpikir lagi, kenapa ia bisa 'pesta' bersama teman-teman dekatnya sementara di depan publik, ia jadi sangat pemalu.. Ia merasa lebih nyaman dan enak berbincang bersama teman-teman dekatnya (yang notabene orang Finlandia juga)...

6. Kimi sangat teknis tapi tidak teoritis.

Berikan mobil jadi, dan suruh ia melakukan uji coba di trek selama beberapa lap. Tak perlu banyak, ia akan langsung bisa memberikan masukan pada tim soal mobil, atau menyesuaikan diri dengan mobil. Ia juga pernah berdiri di atas pijakan kaki motor nan mungil itu saat mengobrol, dan hanya perlu menyeimbangkan diri dengan sedikit menggerakkan kemudi. Tanpa berpikir, dan natural.

Tapi, coba berikan prototipe mobil dengan 200 item yang harus ia pelajari. Menurut Windsor, mungkin Kimi sudah bingung ketika baru mencapai item ketiga - dengan asumsi ia belum tertidur. Well, saya setuju. Bukan hanya karena Kimi hobi sekali tidur *dikemplang*, tapi juga karena ia tak begitu suka membaca. Err, tapi mungkin ia suka membaca data prototipe mobil..

Well, yang jelas, kesimpulan Windsor adalah: Biarkan ia melakukan dengan caranya sendiri, maka ia akan mendekati sempurna. Biarkan ia jadi dirinya sendiri.

7. Kimi tak peduli siapa rekan timnya. Ia juga tak nyaman dengan status nomor satu. Kelihatannya ia ingin status nomor satu, tapi, yah, dia tak begitu nyaman menyandang status itu.

Well... Ia baik. Memang. Bahkan Lewis Hamilton menyebutnya "seorang gentleman, seorang pembalap hebat". F1 patut bersyukur karena ada dia.

Dan Felipe juga menyukainya, walau Kimi tidak begitu luwes. Tak heran, Kimi sebenarnya memang baik dan menyenangkan, tapi Anda harus membiasakan diri dengan perkataan Kimi yang sedikit kaku...

Yah, seperti itu kira-kira. Atau mungkin.. Anda bisa belajar dengan menghadapi saya.. *dicubit sebelum mulai OOT*

Oh yeah, sekali lagi saya katakan, ia baik. Banyak orang menganggap ia tertutup dan membosankan. Bahkan beberapa menganggap ia 'tidak menyenangkan', atau lebih tepatnya, 'badass'. Tapi menurut pengalaman Windsor, Kimi orangnya cukup humoris dan tak pernah kasar. Yeah, Peter, mungkin cara bicaranya saja yang sedikit kaku dan tak luwes...

Ia juga selalu menghargai orang lain. Ia menyelesaikan tiap sesi publik (wawancara, press conference, acara sponsor, dll), walau ia tampak ingin cepat selesai. Tak hanya itu. Windsor bilang, muka Kimi merah selepas parc ferme, ketika terjadi insiden di Jepang di mana kru salah memasang ban pada kedua mobil. Ia tampak kecewa, tapi ia tetap menghargai kru.

8. Ia selalu tenang di podium. Ia tetap tenang dan bahagia karena memenangi satu balapan lagi, karena telah melakukan apa yang dicintainya.

9. Kimi sangat menyayangi keluarga. Perlu Anda ketahui, keluarganya tidak kaya. Bahkan mereka harus jungkir balik sewaktu ia dan kakaknya baru menerjuni balapan. Kalau Anda baca biografinya, Anda akan tahu betapa mereka berjuang untuk menjadikan Kimi seperti sekarang.

Mungkin itu alasan mengapa ia tak terjebak dalam dunia materialistis instan. Ia tetap low profile dan tidak menghamburkan uang. Ia menjauh dari sorotan publik (dan menjauhkan kehidupan pribadinya juga), kecuali pers menemukannya. Sayang, ia lumayan sering tertangkap basah oleh kamera pers, dan itu membuat ia terkesan sebagai playboy (dan biang pesta - kalau ini tampaknya tak terlalu masalah), padahal sebenarnya ia sangat menyayangi keluarganya. Mencintai istrinya, hingga mendukung apa yang dilakukan istrinya (kalau saya tak salah, Jenni menyukai olahraga menunggang kuda.).

Ia bahkan pernah meminta Windsor menghentikan sementara pembicaraan dengan Fernando Alonso seusai balapan di Brazil, hanya karena ia lupa mengatakan sesuatu. Sesuatu itu adalah sapaannya bagi orang tua dan kakek-neneknya di rumah, ucapan terima kasihnya pada mereka sebab tanpa mereka tak akan berada di tempat itu sekarang, dll.

So sweet, isn't it?

Well.. Kimi tetaplah Kimi, dan itu yang membuat orang-orang yang mengerti dia apa adanya, menyukainya. Termasuk saya. Saya menyukai Kimi bukan hanya karena ia imut dan tampan (dan sampai sekarang masih, di mata saya. Jenni patut bersyukur mendapatkan dia, begitu juga sebaliknya.), tapi karena pribadinya yang setelah saya kenali lebih jauh dan dalam: unik.

Seperti kata Windsor: Kimi adalah Kimi - dan ia melakukan apa yang ia cintai dengan hati. Dia unik. Dan kemurnian itulah yang membuatnya menjadi pembalap hebat..

Dan saya pun berharap ia tetap jadi Kimi Raikkonen yang sekarang. Seperti apa yang saya kenal.

((Lah, kok kayanya tetep panjang yak?))

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Diskusi soal hasil survei F1Racing/Motorsport Business Team tahun kemarin bersama Nick Fry, Colin Kolles, Pat Symonds, Christian Horner, dan Tony Purnell.. Hasil dan diskusi lengkapnya sebenarnya lebih baik Anda baca sendiri di majalah, sebab saya sudah kelewat lelah menulis ini.. *timpuks Kimi Raikkonen dan Peter Windsor*

Tapi ada beberapa isu menarik bagi saya: Sistem poin, grid dibalik, KERS, dan biofuel.

1. Sistem poin.

74,43% responden menyatakan bahwa pembalap yang mencetak fastest lap perlu mendapatkan bonus satu poin. Perlukah?

Saya tak ingat pasti apa jawaban saya saat itu, tapi pendapat panelis sangat menarik. Biar saya berikan intinya saja, sebab jawaban asli terlalu panjang..

Symonds: "Well, masalah ini harus dipikirkan secara matang. Satu poin itu sangat berharga di Formula 1 modern. Kalau pencatat fastest lap mendapatkan satu poin, maka Anda akan berpikir secara strategis - daripada mendapatkan satu poin dari finis kedelapan, mendingan dari fastest lap.

...

Saya pikir kita semestinya membuka perdebatan sistem poin itu dan memiliki sistem poin yang baru sesuai dengan urutannya - mestinya pembalap yang melakukan overtaking mendapatkan insentif."

Purnell: "...jika yang melakukan overtaking mendapatkan poin, seluruh filosofi desain akan berubah, dan bakal ada dua mobil di wind tunnel, karena handling mobil di traffic harus bagus dan bagi saya sih sangat positif."

Hmm.. Pemikiran bagus.. Dua-duanya punya alasan yang masuk akal. Saya sih cukup setuju dengan ide ini. Lagipula, fastest lap tak melulu dicetak oleh pembalap yang overtaking atau sedang berada di atas angin.. Posisi pembalap saat itu memiliki banyak kemungkinan.. Dan itu juga hanya satu poin. Tak masalah.

2. Grid dibalik.

63,74% responden tak ingin grid dibalik. Dan 64,9% tak mau ada qualifying race. Well, haruskah F1 mengadopsi ide yang lebih radikal?

Saya pikir grid dibalik nampak seru, dan saya memilih 'Ya' saat itu, 'Tidak' untuk qualifying race. Bagi saya, itu bisa jadi ajang untuk membuktikan kehebatan mobil. Hebat dari depan dan belakang. Tapi ternyata tak semua berpikiran sama..

Fry: "...Menurut saya, grid dibalik batasannya terlalu luas dan terlalu jauh. Karena muaranya nanti metiokrasi - bukan pure entertainment..."

Symonds: "...saya sebetulnya suka yang agak sedikit chaos. Ingat GP Jepang 2005 (grid dicampur aduk karena turun hujan saat kualifikasi) dan balapannya menarik, ya, kan? Grid dibalik bisa-bisa saja, dan bukan hal yang jelek, tapi jangan sampai terlihat direkayasa..."

Horner: "Dari sudut pandang TV, balapan itu (Suzuka 2005, red.) paling enak dilihat. Tapi kita tak bisa membuat-buat skenario itu. Tim-tim F1 dan FIA harus mempertimbangkan secara matang cara memberikan tontonan yang lebih menarik dan bagaimana agar balapan itu sarat dengan duel wheel-to-wheel. Soalnya ini kan tontonan selama 1 jam 45 menit setiap Minggu siang yang disajikan kepada penonton TV maupun penonton di lintasan yang ingin menyaksikan duel wheel-to-wheel."

Kolles: "Tapi kita kan harus memberikan 'hadiah' kepada pemegang posisi kualifikasi, karena bisa saja mobil McLaren mencoba menjadi yang paling pelan di kualifikasi, agar bisa mendapatkan pole di balapan. Jadi harus dipikirkan secara matang."

Well, nampak seru sebenarnya kalau ada grid dibalik... Tapi itu dia masalahnya: rekayasa.

3. KERS (Kinetic Energy Recovery System)

74,25% responden berpendapat pemberlakuan KERS pada tahun 2009 nerupakan usulan bagus bagi F1 dan keuntungannya bisa diwariskan kepada industri road car. Tapi, biaya pengembangannya dikritik karena mahal. Baguskah?

Well, tampak menarik, tapi saya lupa apa respon saya dulu. Tampaknya 'Ya'. Tapi rupanya ini masalah yang cukup rumit...

Kolles: "Menurut saya, pendapat orang terhadap masalah ini berbeda-beda. Saya setuju kita harus menyelamatkan dunia, tapi menurut saya KERS bukanlah metode yang tepat, jujur saja. Kalau biayanya lebih tinggi daripada keuntungan, buat apa?

Horner: "Pilihan yang sulit. Kita berdua ini tim independen, bukan pabrikan. Tapi pemikiran kami berbeda dengan Colin. Kita hanya lihat dari segi uangnya saja - tapi bukan berarti kami tak mendukung konsep tersebut. Tapi kami ingin melihat apa kebijakan FIA dalam mengendalikan biaya itu; ya kalau tidak sama saja dengan membuka kotak Pandora. Sama saja dengan kompetisi balapan tangan bagi engineer yang membaktikan waktu dan uangnya di bidang ini. Jadi menurut kami, kami ingin ada parameter agar biaya bisa dikendalikan."

Purnell: "Menurut saya mereka salah kalau tidak sampai mendukung KERS. F1 harus memberikan kontribusi pada masa depan dunia otomotif. Sudah jelas bahwa pemulihan energi -dalam jangka menengah- sangat penting. Kelemahannya adalah kalau kita bebaskan, makan banyak biaya. Jadi kami punya dilema karena di satu sisi kami juga ingin menghemat pengeluaran. Maka kita harus seimbang, jadi dibutuhkan kebijakan yang mengaturnya."

Fry: "Jangan cuma dari awal segala sesuatunya tak berjalan sesuai dengan harapan, kita harus menyerah. Pengembangan KERS pada F1 itu sulit karena sistemnya juga pelik, tapi mendatangkan keuntungan."

Well, mungkin kita harus mencari cara agar biaya pengembangan dan pembuatannya tak makan banyak biaya... Teknologinya bagus, kukira.

4. Biofuel.

Topik menarik terakhir (untuk saya).

56,94% responden setuju jika F1 mengikuti ajang motorsport lain menggunakan biofuel. Bagaimana komentar para panelis?

Saat itu, saya menjawab 'Ya'. Saya hanya memikirkan kelebihan biofuel, tanpa mengingat apa kekurangannya. Dan setelah membaca wawancara dengan Mario Theissen bulan lalu, serta diskusi kali ini, saya berpikir lain..

Mario Theissen on F1 Racing January 2008: "Kita harus melihat minyak bio masa depan. FIA telah mengusulkan minyak bio ini selama bertahun-tahun, tapi kini mereka menyadari bahayanya. Jadi kita harus menunggu minyak bio generasi kedua yang berasal dari sampah agrikultur, bukan hasil mentah agrikultur itu sendiri. Menurut saya tak akan menunggu terlalu lama, mungkin sekitar satu atau dua tahun."

Horner: "Menurut saya tak masuk akal."

Symonds: "Well, pertanyaan ini terlalu menyederhanakan. Apa yang Anda maksud dengan biofuel? Apakah yang kita maksudkan ini adalah biofuel generasi pertama atau kedua. Menurut saya, dunia menyadari bahwa generasi pertama biofuel tak memberikan kelebihan apa-apa. Mereka malah mempengaruhi rantai makanan, karena bukan itu yang kita inginkan dan mempengaruhi negara-negara miskin."

Fry: "Honda sedang mengembangkan bahan bakar dari akar pohon padi yang sekarang ini lebih banyak dibuang. Dan bagi negara seperti Jepang, pertimbangan itu masuk akal. Saya kira, F1 akan berada di garda depan pengembangan bahan bakar sintetis dan pengembangan teknologi-teknologi seperti ini."

Saya sungguh tak menyangka. Orang-orang F1 malah berpikir jauh ke depan.. Mereka tak hanya memikirkan keuntungan dan kelebihan biofuel, tapi juga kekurangannya, yang notabene kerugian orang lain. Yah, semoga saja biofuel generasi baru, yang berasal dari bahan tumbuhan yang tak terpakai untuk urusan-lain-seperti-makanan cepat selesai dikembangkan... Tentu yang produksinya tidak memakan biaya besar, dan hasilnya juga besar. Dan tidak memiskinkan orang.

Last but not least.. Ternyata banyak yang ingin melihat pembalap melakukan donut dan melakukan sesi (wajib) tanda tangan!

DUNGEONS & DRAGONS CHARACTER

I Am A: True Neutral Elf Cleric (3rd Level)

Ability Scores:

Strength-11

Dexterity-13

Constitution-9

Intelligence-13

Wisdom-14

Charisma-11

Alignment:
True Neutral A true neutral character does what seems to be a good idea. He doesn't feel strongly one way or the other when it comes to good vs. evil or law vs. chaos. Most true neutral characters exhibit a lack of conviction or bias rather than a commitment to neutrality. Such a character thinks of good as better than evil after all, he would rather have good neighbors and rulers than evil ones. Still, he's not personally committed to upholding good in any abstract or universal way. Some true neutral characters, on the other hand, commit themselves philosophically to neutrality. They see good, evil, law, and chaos as prejudices and dangerous extremes. They advocate the middle way of neutrality as the best, most balanced road in the long run. True neutral is the best alignment you can be because it means you act naturally, without prejudice or compulsion. However, true neutral can be a dangerous alignment because it represents apathy, indifference, and a lack of conviction.

Race:
Elves are known for their poetry, song, and magical arts, but when danger threatens they show great skill with weapons and strategy. Elves can live to be over 700 years old and, by human standards, are slow to make friends and enemies, and even slower to forget them. Elves are slim and stand 4.5 to 5.5 feet tall. They have no facial or body hair, prefer comfortable clothes, and possess unearthly grace. Many others races find them hauntingly beautiful.

Class:
Clerics act as intermediaries between the earthly and the divine (or infernal) worlds. A good cleric helps those in need, while an evil cleric seeks to spread his patron's vision of evil across the world. All clerics can heal wounds and bring people back from the brink of death, and powerful clerics can even raise the dead. Likewise, all clerics have authority over undead creatures, and they can turn away or even destroy these creatures. Clerics are trained in the use of simple weapons, and can use all forms of armor and shields without penalty, since armor does not interfere with the casting of divine spells. In addition to his normal complement of spells, every cleric chooses to focus on two of his deity's domains. These domains grants the cleric special powers, and give him access to spells that he might otherwise never learn. A cleric's Wisdom score should be high, since this determines the maximum spell level that he can cast.

Subuh-subuh Ambu udah SMS. Katanya ada peta sirkuit Singapura di PR.

Euh.. Kurang kerjaan bener. Saya kan masih ngantuk, mbu.. T.T

Dan.. Pas siangnya nyari di luar, saya ga menemukan satu pun PR tersisa, alias sudah habis.. T.T

Akhirnya... Banding McLaren tentang kasus bahan bakar BMW dan Williams di Brazil ditolak.

Dan, dengan demikian, Kimi Raikkonen tetap menjadi juara dunia Formula 1 2007.

Yay~! :P

Nonton konser malam hak kekayaan intelektual sekaligus peluncuran lagu-lagunya SBY di Metro TV...

Ternyata.. Presiden kita berbakat juga menulis lagu...

Tapi Pak, jangan lupa ngurus negara ya.. :D

18 November 2007

Nonton Oprah, dan tema hari ini adalah: Anjing~!

Iya, anjing beneran. Ada anjingnya Oprah, tiga ekor, golden retriever warna putih. Tapi mereka lucu-lucu. Trus ada anjing Great Dane yang lebih tinggi daripada Shaq O'Neal, dan anjing chihuahua yang panjangnya cuma sepanjang permen Hershey's bar.

O ya, di situ, kita juga dikasih tahu kalau anjing musti diajari dengan cinta..

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Dibeliin Ibu baju baru, dan kata Ibu, bajunya agak kebesaran, tapi gpp, biar Miyu cepet gemuk..

Euh.. T.T Masalahnya, Miyu ini lebih gampang turun berat badan daripada naik..

Yah, gpp deh. Lagian, waktu dicoba ternyata ga terlalu kebesaran....

19 November 2007

Nonton Oprah lagi, dan kali ini, dia menjawab surat pemirsa..

Yang paling menarik itu, ada satu pemirsa yang nanyain soal grammar, dan sama Oprah dibawain seorang ahli grammar. Ada situsnya lho, di sini.

Terus, ada istrinya Dr. Oz. Cantik banget~

Dan.. Ada gadis bernama~ Oprah Winfrey. Yeah, she's 12 at that time. :P

Katanya bapak-ibunya sih, biar jadi sehebat Oprah..

20 November 2007

Okay, soal Jakarta macet, siapakah yang salah?

Menurut Miyu, jawabannya ada dua. Masyarakat Jakarta yang dudul, dan pemerintah yang juga dudul.

Jangan marah dulu. Kenapa saya bilang dudul? Soalnya yang satu kebanyakan (KEBANYAKAN~!) maunya pakai mobiiiiiiiiiiil terus kemana-mana, yang satu lagi bangun koridor busway ga liat-liat.

Tapi untuk yang kedua, emang susah. Gimana mau bangun jalur alias koridor busway kalau tempatnya macet terus.

Nah, buat yang pertama.. BISAKAH ANDA MENGURANGI PEMAKAIAN MOBIL ANDA?? --;

Sori caps lock. Habisnya kesel. Penduduk Jakarta itu udah berapa banyak? Ini aja mungkin masih nambah lagi. Kalau penduduk Jakarta terus bertambah, sementara kebanyakan dari mereka itu maunya kemana-mana pakai mobil pribadi, bahkan mungkin seorang satu mobil.. Kapan Jakarta mau bebas macet? Sampai kiamat juga Jakarta ga bakal bebas macet kalau orang-orangnya pikirannya untuk kepentingan dirinya sendiri.

Yah, seperti para artis, yang dengan santainya bilang, ga setuju ada busway atau entah gimana itu..

Alasannya, malah nambah kemacetan. Ya iya lah, kalau semua orang masih pake mobil pribadi, emang nambah kemacetan. IDIOT. --;

Udah gitu, alasan lagi. Kalau rumahnya jauh, di Bekasi, misalnya, kan ga bisa ke koridor busway.. Itu kan pake angkutan lagi.. blablabla. Terus, ada juga yang pernah kena macet naik motor, jadi ga ngebayangin kalau naik busway..

WTF?! Nonsense. Iya kalau di luar kota dan bener-bener jauh dari koridor busway terdekat sekalipun. --;

Kalau masih di dalam kota dan dekat ama koridor busway? Ya usahain dong, naik apa gitu kek ke koridor. Jangan mentang-mentang artis, males keluar duit. Buat naik angkutan umum, berapa sih yang perlu kita keluarin? Lebih banyak mana, buat naik angkutan umum atau buat beli mobil? --;

Dan, apa hubungannya pernah kena macet waktu naik motor sama males naik busway? Ga ada itu, ga ada~! Orang yang bikin macet malah mobil dan motor yang bejibun.. Mana motor itu kan kadang suka salip kanan-kiri seenaknya.. --;

Apalagi.. Tiap Sabtu-Minggu, mereka bawa-bawa kemacetan ke Bandung~!

Lihat aja deh kalau Sabtu-Minggu.. Banyak banget mobil ber-plat B di mana-mana..

Bikin yang orang Bandung dan cuma orang biasa kaya saya ini males keluar kalau udah kesiangan.. --;

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Iseng mampir ke blognya Tika, dan iseng nyobain salah satu link yang ada di situ..

Dan ternyata oh ternyata~.. Saya dikerjain! *nangis darah plus pundung*

Euh.. kenapa sih kenanya pas saya lagi sewot gara-gara tenggorokan saya sakit? T.T

Yah, untunglah saya menulis nama dua orang, bukan satu, hihi. Dan yang satu itu.. *lirik Jenni* Euh, minjem bentar! *dikemplang Jenni karena minjem suami orang ga bilang-bilang*

*nyengir* Lain kali saya tulis namanya Felipe sama Rafaela deh.. Hihi. *dibunuh*

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Well, jujur aja, saya udah capek sama Ryorin. Dia bener-bener berubah sekarang. Apa-apa ditunda, bahkan TA juga tertunda terus.

Dan kemarin dia bohong sama saya soal dosennya. Uwi bilang Ryorin belum ketemu Mami Ayda, tapi dia bilang udah. Nice.

Kenapa sih dia itu? Padahal Mami Ayda juga ga marah ke dia kok. Kenapa dia ga mau ketemu?

TA aja terlantar, gimana mau nyelesaiin NaNoWriMo dan HBPss? --;

IDIOT~! I'm really leaving you this time.

*cries*

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Pas nonton Empat Mata, ada obrolan soal Safety Riding.. Nice!

Cuma, adakah pengendara motor atau mobil kita yang menonton? dan apakah mereka sudah mengemudi dengan aman?

Saya yakin banyak pengemudi Indonesia yang tidak melakukan Safety Riding. Malah mungkin orang Indonesia lebih banyak seenaknya. OMG.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Nonton Padamu Negeri, dan topiknya adalah soal televisi. Dan, ada Menkominfo, Om Arswendo, sama entah-siapa-itu-namanya (lupa!).

Keren! Bahkan Menkominfo sama Om Arswendo bisa dibilang kompak. Apalagi soal variasi acara TV. Kata mereka, kenapa sih acara seperti Padamu Negeri ga ditiru? Variatif sih boleh variatif, tapi harusnya sisi edukasi dan informasinya juga harus ada dong. Jangan acaranya mistis mulu, gosip mulu..

Mending kalau mistisnya macam Supernatural yang masih pakai logika. Acara mistis Indonesia mah itu-ituuu aja..

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Hadiah Kick Andy minggu ini: buku the Secret. Jujur aja, saya pengen banget buku itu. Maklum, tiap kali rencana mau beli, uangnya kepakai mulu.. T.T

23 November 2007

Euh.. mentang-mentang saya ga mau ikutan RPG-nya, dan saya ini kucing, anak-anak menjadikan saya kucing beneran, alias.. Mrs. Norris!

Huhuh.. Yah, jangan sampai kegilaannya Miyuri muncul saat saya jadi Mrs. Norris ya... Bisa kacau entar.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Curhat sama neng Mikan soal Ryorin, dan..

1. Kata Mikan, sabar.. Oke, Myu udah usaha.
2. Tiba-tiba Ryorin bikin kesel lagi. Myu di warnet udah netesin air mata satu-satu.
3. Neng Mikan bilang, sabar.. kalo pengen nangis, nangis aja sekalian. Dan.. Myu beneran nangis sejadi-jadinya di warnet, dan sudah benar-benar memikirkan untuk putus.
4. Neng Mikan bilang, putus itu keputusan berat. Jangan dipikir pakai emosi. Okay, Myu pikirin sekali lagi.. Masih sambil nangis di warnet. (Sebodo amat kalo diliat orang juga, habisnya Myu kalo nangis ga bisa ditahan.. T.T)

Yah, akhirnya memang ga jadi putus.. Bukan apa-apa. Kalau dipikir-pikir, Myu dan Ryorin emang lagi sama-sama emosi waktu itu, dan.. Yah, Myu belum bisa ngadepin keputusan yang berat. Iya kalau Myu bisa bertahan dan tegar setelah putus. Kalau ngga?

Alasan lain, well, saya masih cinta dia.. Saya masih mau memaafkan semua kesalahan yang pernah dia lakukan sama saya. Well, karena pemaafan itu termasuk cinta. Dan dia belum pernah melakukan satu kesalahan fatal yang tidak akan mendapatkan maaf dari saya - berkhianat dan berbohong tanpa alasan yang jelas. Yah, sebenarnya dia bohong sama saya, tapi saya rasa, saya tahu alasannya..

Jadi.. Neng Mikan, makasih ya sudah menyediakan waktu buat Myu curhat! *hugs*

25 November 2007

Diajak ke pesta ulang tahun eyangnya Ryorin, dan..

Dapat doorprize pigura!

Eyang Uti, makasih ya~

O ya, selamat ulang tahun ya, Eyang. Semoga tetap sehat dan banyak rejeki. Amin.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Setelah Ibu yang ngomelin Myu sama Ryorin soal berat badan (yang satu ga gemuk-gemuk juga, yang satu susah buangeeeet kalo disuruh diet..), giliran saudara-saudaranya Ryorin yang lain yang ribut.. soal berat badan kita berdua. *hiks*

Bahkan Kakak (pembantunya Ryorin di Jakarta) juga ikut nyeramahin kita berdua soal.. berat badan. *hiks hiks*

Karena Mia ngambek mulu, akhirnya Myu beli HP baru. Dan namanya..

Sakuya! Diambil dari nama salah satu chara fave Myu di Touhou, Sakuya Izayoi.

2 Desember 2007

Nonton News dot com, dan, merasa agak sedikit kesal. Oke, topik tentang global warmingnya itu keren, tapi..

Myu merasa orang kita ga mau introspeksi diri. Oke, saya tahu negara-negara maju (terutama Amerika) itu negara industri, dan juga penghasil emisi karbon 'terbesar'.

Tapi kenapa ga ada yang mau sadar dan introspeksi? Indonesia juga menghasilkan emisi yang lumayan besar. Kendaraan bermotor yang berjubel di jalanan itu, apa bukan penghasil emisi karbon? Maaf, tapi jawabannya adalah ya.

Yang bertanggung jawab soal emisi sebenarnya bukan hanya dari negara maju, tapi juga kita yang hidup di negara berkembang, TERMASUK INDONESIA. Dan, beban itu sebenarnya harus diberikan pada perorangan, BUKAN HANYA negaranya.

Ya iya lah. Kalau orang tidak dibebani dengan kewajiban untuk menjaga lingkungannya, dia akan berpikir dan berbuat seenaknya. *grumbles*

Dan, menjaga lingkungan memang harus berdasarkan kecintaan. Tapi harus dibuktikan, dong! Jangan hanya bicara, tapi ga melakukan apa-apa! NATO itu mah! No Action, Talk Only!

Savo jatuh dari tangga, dan LCD-nya pecah, jadi Ryorin ga bisa lihat hampir apapun di situ...

Akhirnya, Mia ikut ayahnya, mumpung ga kepakai... :D

9 Desember 2007

Ga disangka, Mia ngambekan-nya makin jadi setelah ikut Ryorin. Haduh, dasar anak manja. Mana ngambeknya tiap Myu telpon lagi.. *cubit-cubit Mia*

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Entah kenapa, tiba-tiba nyadar sesuatu. Dulu, waktu tes Tarot, Myu dapatnya The Moon, dan Ryorin, The Hermit. Kalau dirujuk ke kartu Tarot ala Touhou yang rada ga beres :P, Myu dapatnya Kaguya Houraisan, dan Ryorin.. Fujiwara no Mokou!

Wekekek! Pantes, kalau kita bertengkar, bisa ga berenti-berenti.. Paling ga, sampai salah satu 'tewas'. Sayangnya, kita kan immortal.. *dikemplang karena ngasal*

Huhu~ Maksudnya kagak mati beneran, gitu loh... *bletak!*

Euh, dan, emang sih, Kaguya-Mokou kan hubungannya rada-rada.. Gimanaaa~ gitu.. :P

*kabur sebelum Ryorin pundung lagi*

13 Desember 2007

Savo akhirnya sembuh! Yay!

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Sempat nonton Public Corner di Metro TV, dan, temanya adalah: Hal-hal kecil yang bisa kita lakukan untuk menyelamatkan bumi kita dari Global Warming.

Dan... Banyak sekali hal-hal kecil yang bisa kita lakukan, mulai dari menanam pohon (dan merawatnya), mendaur ulang, menggunakan kembali, bersepeda atau berjalan kaki, dll.

Tentu saja, ga cukup satu orang yang melakukan. Harus banyak orang, kalau ga, sama aja bohong.

8 Random Facts/Habits

Umm.. Actually I read this from Talitha's old blog, so, well, actually, this is a homework from her, since she told that it is a homework for.. Nearly everyone.

But unfortunately, my Reine got sick and I lost everything I've wrote for this. And then, I read Amanda's blog. So, it becomes a homework from her, too.

And theeeeeeeeeN~! Mikan's and Ambu's blog. They said it's for everyone, and.. Now it becomes a homework for me from ALMOST EVERYONE.

Yeah, almost every blog I read, I mean.. *sigh*

1. I have a lot of nicknames.. Yea, actually. People in common calls me Dian, my real name. Some of my friends call me Myu or Miyu. Some of my net friends call me Chryseis or Chrissy. And then, Ryorin calls me Myurin, Grandmum calls me Lady Di, Grandad calls me Rini, my Chinese teacher calls me Tian Mei, Uncle Greg calls me Kitty, and.. Grammy B calls me Princess!

I don't remember what other nicknames that I have.. ^^;

2. I have a twin sister named Merin Thomas aka Ragz, in TPS (The Poet Sanctuary). In the forum, she's 1 minute older than me, and in real life.. She is 6 months younger.. :P

Ah, and she's the one who gets the idea of calling me.. Chrissy. ^^;

3. Recently, I love to play with yarn.. Really, I love to play with it. From just playing with it like a cat does (yes, I do~), until knitting the yarn into a flower. Honestly, there are only two things I can do with my yarn except playing with it.. like a cat does. One, plaiting threads of yarns like plaiting hair. Second.. Knitting the yarn into a flower shaped corsage.. Yes, just it. I tried to knit something else, but I can't finish them until now, just because I'm too lazy to make something bigger, longer, and more complex than making a corsage!

4. Addicted to TPS. Whenever I connected to the internet, I (almost) always open TPS forum. Most often is for doing moderation or just take-a-look. Except if I just connected for one hour or connected at the university's net cafe. I can't do that from the university's cafe. The cookies there are just too messed up.. *rolls eyes*

5. Loves to learn ANY language. Yes, ANY. From English, Japanese, Chinese, umm.. French, Dutch, German.. er... Sundanese, Latin, Spanish, Quenya.. and now, Finnish and Nahuatl, also Icelandic and Russian.

Yup, I really learn them, but don't ask me to speak. I'm too shy to speak in a language other than Indonesian or English.. And I'm still learning . That's why.

6. Often call my own poems as a.. Rambling. Usually, I will write this under my poems:

'Sorry, I'm rambling again~' or something similar to it..

*runs away from everyone*

7. Umm, well.. I loves pink so much! I have pink clothes (dresses, shirts, skirts, etc), pink jilbabs, pink stuffed cat (usually I will throw this if I gets mad at Ryorin, since it's his gift.. :P), pink bed spread (which now is in storage), pink bedcover, and some more other things colored pink, until.. pink trash can (I realized that it's pink just now~! LOL).

8. Well, to be honest, actually I want to have 23 children.. But I wonder if Ryorin allows me to do that when we really gets married in the future.. LOL. Thanks God I have 20 children in a form of electronical things (13 'alive and active on duty', 1 'alive and dismissed', 1 'dead', 1 'sick', and 4 'lost')...

Okay, that's all. If I have another random facts, I'll share them with you.

Now. Let me throw this as a homework to..

Damn. I don't have idea to who should I pass this... So, it's for everyone who haven't done the same crazy thing, and for everyone who have done it, but have nothing else to write..

*evil grin*

Me and My Attempts to Save the Earth

Well, this is a homework from Kid, actually. But, despite the fact that this is a homework, I love this. Why? Because this is my introspection about what I have done, or will do, to reduce negative effects of modern life that is 'not green' or in other words 'damaging our surroundings', to reduce global warming, and to save the earth from the effect of them.

And.. here we go.

1. I have planted some plants at my backyard. Not the kind of the tree that could grow really big, because my backyard is tiny, but..

Well, I have two 'jerpaya' (jeruk-pepaya aka lemon-papaya) trees, two papaya trees (yeah, real papaya. I don't know why I have those, cause they immediately grow in my little garden), strawberry shrubs and some other else. I know they're only shrubs up to small or medium trees, but I believe it can help save the earth.

And, to keep them alive so they can do 'their job', I give them water about twice a day. Usually in the morning and afternoon. When it's going to be raining (I can somewhat predict rain :D), I'll give water only once, because the rain here is quite hard.

2. Well, I don't use any kind of private vehicle to go anywhere, and I go to campus walking or by public transportation... So, I'm already helping to save the earth from carbon emission. *grin*

But. If I have any motor vehicle, I will use it rarely or, use biofuel (which comes from plants and come back to plants again) or other kind of 'earth-safe' fuel for it.

And, regarding to this, I will not allow my *future* children to use any motor vehicle to go to school. They have to walk, ride a bicycle, or go with public transportation (if the school is far away and they can't ride a bicycle).

Don't ask about me. I can't drive a motorcycle nor a car, not even ride a bike. I just could walk. So, believe me, I'm 'green' from this aspect. :D Except the fact that the public transporation vehicles are still using the fuel that's made from fossils... :P

3. I'm trying to reduce the use of plastics. I'm also reducing the plastics trash. My attempts are:

First, I save plastics bag that I receive from buying things, and use them for other purpose.

Second, I collect plastics bottle. And not throwing away them. ^^; I've just thinking, that this way, I'll reduce the plastics trash, and I don't have to always buy bottled drink (except if i'm being forced to do so). Oh, and, I remembered something just now. My father used some bottles as pots. Isn't that good? :D

Third, my Mum teach me to bring my own shopping/plastic/whatever bag to the market, so I almost always bring my own in my bag, even though.. I often forgot that I bring it. *rolls eyes*

Geez.. Remind me to always bring my own bag and REMEMBER that I have IT inside my bag if I'm going shopping..

4. I will separate my trashes. Organics and inorganics ones. I haven't done this yet, since I always tend to throw away trashes in the same place, but.. I'll do it.

Reading Kid's posts, she use the organics ones as green manure for her plants. So, why don't I use organics trashes as manure for my plants, too? And, come to think about it, Mum and Dad teach me to do so!

I haven't done that, and, now.. I must do it!

Yeah, that's a must. Remind me to do that, okay?

*reminds herself*

5. I hope I can reduce the use of electricity and water in my house. I only use a small amount of water when taking a bath :D, but I use a lot of water for washing dishes and clothes, since I wash dishes with hands, and use top-loading washing machine..

And, I can turn off the lights, turn off my computer and television, but I can't withdraw the PC and television electric cable from the socket, because... If i do that, when I plug in the cable again, all the electricity in my house (and my neighbor's house, which electricity system is the same as mine) will went out.

Seems I have to change the electricity socket...

6. I use used paper for another purpose. Usually for printing non-important documents, or..

Making origami from those papers! Well, I have a tin can and a bag that are filled with origami made from new papers or used papers...

And, actually, it should be more than that, but my Dad always throw them away when he sees them... *sigh* So, I always hide them.. *grin*

Anyway, I'm thinking of recycling used papers in my house..

7. Handkerchief vs tissue. Thanks to Ms. Kid again, I will reduce the use of tissue in my house, except if I catch a cold. Believe me, if I catch a cold, I will produce a lot of mucus.. And that's horrible if I only bring handkerchiefs! *sigh*

And, well, yeah, I have a lot of handkerchiefs, but rarely use it. I think now I should.. No, I must increase the using of those lovely handkerchiefs...

EXCEPT IF I CATCH A COLD! Yes. E-x-c-e-p-t. Except. *sigh*

I hate that fact. The fact that my cold is always 'horrible'.. That's just.. Saddening. T.T

8. Umm.. I don't burn garbages! No. When I burn garbage, I produce carbon and gases which may destroy the ozone.. You don't know what's the chemical inside your garbage, right?

9. I let my clothes drying in the sun. Well, it's free, and not using any electricity, too! Only the sun. :D

Edit to Add!:

10. I wonder why I forgot to wrote this yesterday.. Usually, when buying food like noodles, meatballs, or anything else (especially near my house), I always bring my own plate or bowl. This way, I don't have to use plastics.. :D

Anyone knows what other else that I've done, or haven't done yet? Tell me!

And.. This will be a homework for:

1. Ryorin! This is a good homework, right?
2. Ambu Dian.
3. Amanda. *revenge!*
4. Mikan.
5. Miss Thursday aka Cicak. :P
6. Lily.
7. Everyone. Yes, everyone except those who have done this awesome homework... *evil grin* Then, why I mention some people before I say that this is for everyone? Because I want to do so. :P

Last words: Do what you can do to save the Earth, even if that's just a little thing.

And that's the end of Chemistry in Life Fiftieth Edition. Hope I can see you next week or so, with Chemistry in Life Fifty-first Edition - Special Myurin-Ryorin Third Anniversary.

See ya!

Chemistry In Life Fourty-ninth Edition

2007-11-09T14:04:00.001+07:00

Greetings. Welcome back to Chemistry in Life.

Anyway, how are you? Hope you'll fine.

Recently, rain falls down almost every afternoon at my place. Usually, until the night comes. So, the weather is a bit cold.

But that's a good time to stay at home, and write a novel, right? 'Cause this is NaNoWriMo month!

Are you participating? Yes or not, you should come here now. Maybe for a refreshment? Because I have a bunch of fun dialogues between some F1 drivers and the press, also some team principal at some press conference, which could make you laugh out loud.

But before that, here is Another View of Myu-chan.

Enjoy!

ANOTHER VIEW OF MYU-CHAN

*Indonesian mode ON*

24 Oktober 2007

Setelah Indonesia disebut Indon di Malaysia, giliran mereka yang kena batunya. Sekarang, Malaysia disebut: Malingsia, dengan slogan Malingsia Truly Maling Asia.

Rasain tuh. Hihi.

Tapi kurang satu huruf: harusnya Malingsiah. --;

Well, buat siapapun yang merasa dirinya warga Malay dan merasa tidak pernah menjelek-jelekkan orang Indonesia dan menyebut kami Indon, tolong jangan marah.

Semua ini kan gara-gara kelakuan pemerintah, pers, dan orang-orang Malaysia yang ga tahu diri lainnya..

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Mahasiswa dikira pembantu, pembantu disiksa.. Trus apa lagi?

Rasa Sayange dicuri, Jali-Jali juga katanya diubah biar jadi lagu Malaysia, kok kayanya ga punya identitas ya, itu negara?

Sekarang, mau apa lagi? Mau mencuri apa lagi, heh?

Beneran deh. Mana, bawain itu PM-nya ke saya. Dasar PM tolol, tidak punya otak.

Apa di Malay ga ada orang yang normal? Apa orang normal yang baik hati itu selalu dicari-cari kesalahannya, lalu dipenjara di Malay?

Duh, berhenti ngirim TKI dan siapapun ke Malay deh. Biar nyaho.

25 Oktober 2007

Reine ternyata ga bisa diselamatkan.. Udah dicoba berbagai macam cara, tapi ga berhasil juga. Katanya kalau bisa, cek fisiknya dulu, tapi dari luar mah ga kenapa-napa, kemungkinan yang di dalamnya yang rusak.

Nyu~ T.T

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

FIA akhirnya menyetujui rencana balapan F1 di malam hari di Singapura. OMG.

Yah, setelah dilihat-lihat, sirkuitnya lebih baik dari Monaco. Jalannya lebih lebar. Masalahnya, kenapa harus malam hari? Katanya banyak pembalap mengeluhkan soal lampu, di mana, lampu bisa mengganggu pandangan, apalagi kalau hujan.

Kenapa ga dibikin balapan siang aja? Bernie, ganti jadi siang saja sana! Kalau tidak, saya akan tetap membenci sirkuit di Singapura itu sampai kapanpun, seperti saya membenci Monaco.

27 Oktober 2007

Halal bihalal di rumah Ambu...

Yang datang: Miyu, Ryorin, Iputz, Audriel, Lily, Renny, Ireth, Terri. Parker katanya mau datang, tapi kok.. Sore. Dan entah deh, dia beneran datang apa ga, soalnya Miyu pulang duluan..

Dan.. tahukah apa yang terjadi di sana? Sementara Lily mojok sama Renny (hayo, masih kecil udah berani ngomongin selingkuhan! :P).. Saya, Ryorin, Audriel, Terri dan Ireth main poker. ^^; Ambu sama Iputz mah kebagian nontonnya aja..

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Banding McLaren soal kasus di GP Brazil baru akan dibacakan tanggal 15 November..

Masih lama. *grumbles*

Ron, ini bukan suatu jalan atau rencana untuk menjadikan Lewis juara kan? Jelas-jelas dia bilang dia tidak rela menjadi juara di luar trek...

Tapi, katanya Max Mosley, hasil banding tidak akan mempengaruhi hasil kejuaraan... Jadi, juara dunia tahun ini tetap Kimi Raikkonen.

Are you sure, Max?

Because.. If you changed your mind (the appeal change the result of the championship), I bet there will be three disappointed people. One being Kimi, because his title, which was his dream, his birthday present, cancelled. (And it means, it is his third time 'unlucky', for being second) Another is Alonso, because he said, he don't want Hamilton to win. And last, Hamilton, who said recently that he want to win, but on-the-track, not off-the-track. And all McLaren drivers said that title appeal is wrong...

Oh, well..

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Hari ini, katanya ada perundingan untuk perdamaian di Darfur. Tapi.. Kok ga semua pihak datang ya? Beberapa pihak pemberontak katanya ga datang dalam perundingan..

*hugs Queenie*

Mau sampai kapan Darfur dibiarkan seperti itu, eh?

*Indonesian mode OFF*

30 Oktober 2007

Katanya, ada konspirasi di balik kasus Stepney-gate, dan juga kemenangan Kimi. Katanya lagi, DC bersaksi soal ini. Sayang, saya lupa dari mana asal berita ini.

Oh yeah?

Kalau itu benar, apakah tingkah laku Kimi selama ini juga bagian dari konspirasi?

*digorok karena ngawur berat*

Ya, maaf aja kalo saya ngaco. Habis, ada-ada saja. Rasanya bukan cuma di F1 kalau pun memang ada konspirasi. Di tempat lain juga banyak. Dan itu bukan rahasia. Bagi saya.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Katanya juga, angklung sudah resmi dibajak Malaysia. Artinya, Malaysia sudah mempatenkan alat musik itu jadi alat musik khas Malaysia.

Tapi.. ga ada berita pastinya.

Jadi ya, agak ragu juga. Mungkin sudah, mungkin belum. Cuma, tetap saja.. menakutkan.

Bagaimanapun, setelah baca ini, saya rasa sudah saatnya kita benar-benar menjaga apa yang menjadi milik rakyat Indonesia. Sudah saatnya juga kita belajar menghargai milik orang lain, termasuk milik sesama anak negeri.

Kalau kita sendiri tidak menghargai milik orang, saya yakin pencurian harta budaya kita (dan mungkin negara lain) oleh Malaysia (dan mungkin *juga* negara lain) akan terus berlanjut...

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Ngomong-ngomong soal hak cipta... Adakah yang tahu di mana saya bisa mendaftarkan hak cipta dari karya-karya saya di Indonesia?

Bisa ga ya, postal copyright-ing di kantor pos Indonesia? Soalnya, kata Amy, biasanya di kantor pos bisa...

*wonders*

Kalau iya, saya mau siap-siap mendaftarkan semua karya saya...

2 November 2007

Belajar main bowling.. Ternyata tidak semudah yang Myu bayangkan!

Tangan jadinya pegel-pegel, deh. Apalagi, dua hari ini dipakai nulis terus, gara-gara ikutan NaNoWriMo...

Tapi senang, apalagi tadi ada anak-anak lucu yang lagi belajar sama ayahnya. Hihi, Ryorin dipanggil 'Om', lho! Euh, saya dipanggil 'Tante' juga, sebenarnya..

Dan, setelah beberapa kali main, akhirnya menemukan beberapa trik untuk Myu sendiri:
1. Jangan terlalu niat.
2, Jangan dilihat. Habis ngelempar, balik badan aja langsung

Emang sih, kata Ryorin, rileks aja. Tapi meskipun begitu, kadang Myu ngelempar bolanya rada barbar. Bahkan kalau tangannya Myu bisa lepas, lepas beneran deh. Hihi.

Kalau kalian baca ini, mungkin tangan saya juga masih pegel-pegel. Gimana ngga, mainnya ga jelas.. ^^;

3 November 2007

Dapat National Geographic terbaru, dan ada artikel tentang bidan di dalamnya. Menarik, karena sampai sekarang, masih banyak orang yang takut ke bidan atau dokter waktu melahirkan bayinya. Biasanya sih karena alasan biaya, atau, lebih percaya dukun ketimbang tenaga medis yang sudah terlatih. Dan yang mengejutkan saya, angka kematian ibu dan anak di Indonesia katanya adalah yang tertinggi di Asia Tenggara. Bahkan kemungkinan juga di Asia.

Zaman memang semakin maju, tapi ternyata, pikiran orang, terutama yang di daerah dan masih 'primitif', belum tentu maju.

Ah, Myu sih pengennya nanti kalau melahirkan sama dokter atau bidan aja... Mahal ga apa-apa, yang penting terjamin.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Fakta tentang kehamilan dan melahirkan:
1. Dari 100000 kelahiran hidup, 307 ibu akan meninggal karena komplikasi kelahiran.
2. Penyebab terbesar kematian ibu adalah perdarahan pascapersalinan. Penyebab lain di antaranya eklampsi akibat hipertensi dalam kehamilan, infeksi, komplikasi aborsi, dan persalinan lama.
3. Dari 1000 kelahiran hidup, 35 bayi akan meninggal sebelum usia 1 tahun.
4. Penyebab kematian bayi baru lahir antara lain tetanus, gangguan hematologis, infeksi, masalah pemberian makanan, berat badan rendah, kesulitan bernapas, dan lain-lain. Yang paling besar adalah berat badan rendah, diikuti kesulitan bernapas.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Hal-hal yang berisiko saat melahirkan (dan sesudahnya):
1. Persalinan dengan bantuan tenaga yang tidak terampil dan terlatih. Sepertiga dari seluruh persalinan di Indonesia masih ditangani dengan cara ini, padahal sering kali tidak disertai deteksi kehamilan dini dan tanpa rujukan yang optimal dan tepat waktu.
2. Mendorong dan memijat perut ibu selama persalinan, menarik plasenta dengan tangan secara paksa, juga memaksa lahirnya bayi pada persalinan yang macet dan sungsang dapat menyebabkan kematian ibu dan bayi.
3. Memandikan bayi dengan air dingin supaya menangis dan bernapas, apalagi pada satu jam pertama sesudah kelahiran. Hal ini justru bisa membuat si bayi sesak napas, kekurangan oksigen, kedinginan (suhu kurang dari 36,5 derajat Celcius), bahkan kematian.
4. Memisahkan bayi dari ibunya setelah melahirkan juga membuat bayi lebih sering menangis, kesulitan menyusu, dan berisiko kena infeksi yang berbahaya.
5. Memberikan makanan tambahan selain ASI. Bagi bayi yang baru lahir, hal ini berbahaya. Apalagi, saluran pencernaan bayi yang baru lahir belum mampu menyerap nutrien dari makanan bukan ASI, sehingga makanan tersebut dapat mengiritasi usus bayi. Bayi yang diberi susu formula pun cenderung mengalami diare, dehidrasi, dan infeksi.
6. Menaburi jalan lahir dengan rempah-rempah atau ramuan khas. Ini juga berbahaya. Meskipun katanya bisa membunuh kuman, menghilangkan bau, dan merapatkan kembali vagina, tapi praktik semacam itu bisa menimbulkan rasa panas, bengkak, nyeri, infeksi, serta rawan perdarahan.
7. Perawatan tali pusar yang tidak steril juga membahayakan bayi yang baru lahir. Contohnya, mengoles pangkal tali pusat dengan ampas kopi, abu dapur, kunyit atau sirih, serta mengikat ujung luar tali pusat dengan tali yang tidak steril.
8. Bayi dari ibu yang tidak mendapat imunisasi tetanus secara tepat juga memiliki risiko terkena infeksi yang tinggi.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Hal-hal yang dianjurkan saat melahirkan (dan sesudahnya):
1. Bersalinlah dengan bantuan tenaga kesehatan yang sudah terampil dan terlatih. Ini adalah cara terbaik mengurangi angka kematian. Kalau 90% saja persalinan di Indonesia ditangani oleh tenaga ahli, angka kematian akan menurun sekitar separuhnya. Persalinan oleh tenaga medis yang terampil dilakukan dengan pemeriksaan akurat, pemantauan persalinan secara benar, serta segera mengenali penyulit dan komplikasi yang mungkin terjadi.
2. Dekaplah bayi Anda yang baru lahir agar kulitnya bersentuhan langsung dengan kulit ibu selama satu jam pertama. Secara naluriah, bayi akan menyusu sendiri. Tindakan sederhana ini dapat mencegah 22% kematian bayi baru lahir yang diakibatkan infeksi dan kedinginan, juga menstabilkan pernapasan dan suhu tubuh bayi secara optimal.
3. Susui bayi Anda. Pakai ASI, tentu saja! Ini adalah cara terbaik untuk meningkatkan dan melindungi kesehatan bayi baru lahir. ASI mencegah diare, infeksi, dan pneumonia - penyebab utama kematian bayi baru lahir hingga usia satu minggu. Dibandingkan susu formula dan makanan lain, ASI mengandung nutrien yang lengkap, lebih cocok bagi bayi, dan memperkuat sistem kekebalan tubuh bayi. ASI juga merupakan imunisasi pertama bagi bayi itu sendiri.
4. Seminggu pertama adalah seminggu yang rawan bagi seorang ibu yang baru melahirkan. Ia masih rawan terhadap komplikasi yang dapat mengakibatkan kematian, karena itu ia membutuhkan pengasuhan oleh tenaga terampil. Jangan lupa, nutrisi yang sehat dan istirahat yang cukup diperlukan juga oleh ibu, agar ia bisa memberikan ASI-nya, dan fisiknya pun cepat pulih. Sebaiknya, ibu juga melakukan olah fisik dan mobilisasi (berjalan secara bertahap) pada minggu pertama ini.
5. Potong tali pusat dengan peralatan steril dan jaga agar tetap bersih, kering, dan terhindar dari berbagai jenis infeksi. Ikat tali pusat dengan tali yang steril dan biarkan mengering sampai terlepas dengan sendirinya.

6 November 2007

Well.. Abang keluar dari McLaren. Dan sepertinya banyak orang yang mendukung...

Tapi habis itu si Abang kemana ya?

9 November 2007

Kasus lagi, kasus lagi.. Katanya nih, ada kasus spionase baru yang melibatkan timnya eyang Flavio Briatore dan om Rom Dennis. Iya, Renault dan McLaren. Katanya Renault menyimpan data rahasia mobil McLaren.

Aduh... Yah, saya memang tidak suka McLaren, tapi eyang Flav, om Dennis, cepetan diberesin ini kasus. Siapapun yang salah, hayo ngaku dan minta maaf (plus jalani apa hukumannya). Kalau ternyata tuduhannya ga bener, yang nuduh, hayo, minta maaf...

FORMULA ONE 2007 - FUN MOMENTS

Usually, I just read a Formula One press conference after the qualifying and the race a bit. But some time ago, I stumbled upon a Thursday or Friday conference, and I found something funny there. Even I could imagine everyone at the conference laughing out loud together at the time.

After that, I read almost every press conference, and… There are some fun, happy moments I found throughout the year.. And usually, they are on Thursday press conference and Sunday press conference (after the race). On Thursday, the drivers are usually optimistic about the race day, while in the Sunday, they are relaxed because they have done the race. Well, sometimes there are satires, but you still could laugh, or just smile.

These are them, but probably just a part, because I didn’t save them all from the beginning. But you could enjoy them. Most of them are conferences with the drivers, plus one with the team principals.

Anyway, many thanks for Formula1.com, also the FIA, for sharing the press conferences transcripts with all of us. All credit goes to them, of course.

And, here we go! Pay attention to the bolds!

(A side note from me: Felipe, you're really fussy! :P)

Q: So how close was it when you were at 180mph running side by side?
FA: I don’t know. One or two centimetres probably. (laughter)

(FIA post-race press conference, 17 June 2007, USA)

Q: (Randy Phillips - The Gazette) I read this week that you said pole position was better than sex, where do you rank this? (laughter)
NH: He’s too young still.
LH: Yesterday it was a joke, it’s a completely different feeling but… (more laughter)
AW: Did something change since yesterday?
(more laughter)
LH: It’s definitely another level of feeling from yesterday, that’s for sure.

(FIA post-race press conference, 10 June 2007, Canada)

Q: (Peter Windsor - F1 Racing) And to Mark, I gather you were ill on Sunday morning and during the race. What did you eat on Saturday night and where did it come from?
MW: Fernando’s phone chip! No, I think it was tuna, it was food poisoning and I was very ill Sunday morning and ill before the race, and ill during the race. It was a very difficult race for me but I was 100 per cent on Monday morning which was frustrating. It was just a 24-hour bug that hit me quite hard.

(FIA thursday press conference, 4 October 2007, China)

Q: Kimi, I believe it was a bit of a big day yesterday, your birthday.
Kimi Raikkonen: Yeah, but when you get older, it’s not the same any more. When you’re young you’re more excited but it was a normal day really.
FM: Yes, he is, he’s very old.

(FIA thursday press conference, 18 October 2007, Brazil)

Q: (Flavio Gomes - Warm Up) You are two young guys, very talented and you could be the best friends in the world, in an ideal world, but you are almost enemies and from a human point of view do you think Formula One, because of this, is a waste of time?
FA: I didn’t understand the question. (laughter)
Q: (Flavio Gomes - Warm Up) You are two young guys, drivers, talented, everything else, but you are almost enemies…
FM: No, you can see they are best friends…
Q: (Flavio Gomes - Warm Up) From this human point of view, would you say that this is a waste of time?
FA: I still don’t understand…(aside to Lewis, aloud) I hear your answer and then I... (laughter)
LH: I don’t think it is a waste of time otherwise I wouldn’t be here.
FM: Brazilian people are very difficult to understand. (laughter)
LH: Maybe Felipe should answer it…
FM: No, I’m fine.

(FIA thursday press conference, 18 October 2007, Brazil)

Q: (Dan Knutson - National Speed Sport News) Kimi, we saw you do a bit of a donut spin there coming back into the pits. What happened?
KR: I lost it.
(laughter)
KR: No, I have always wanted to do one and here it is much easier so… And it was the second race engine, so it doesn’t really matter if you make life harder for it.

(FIA post-race press conference, 16 September 2007, Belgium)

Q: Lewis, happy with second on the grid?
LH: Yeah, absolutely, especially knowing that the gap was so close. Going into qualifying, I knew that we had the pace, obviously throughout testing we seemed to be perhaps either with Ferrari or slightly faster, so I was quite confident going into it. Q1 and Q2 were a bit of a surprise to me. The car didn’t feel great and I couldn’t really get a clean, smooth lap, and I was fourth, I think, for both of them. Going into the two qualifying laps that I had in Q3, the first one was not too bad, I knew where I lost time and I knew that I could improve on it but I didn’t think it would be half a second, six tenths. But going into the last lap, I really put everything together and I knew it was a good lap. I lost a bit of time at the last corner, but I think it’s the same for everyone. It’s a very very tricky corner, but I’m very very happy: second, I can’t complain.
FM: He hasn’t been to the toilet today, that’s why he’s second.
LH: Yeah, but you have, so… If I did, maybe it would be a bit closer.

(FIA post-race press conference, 25 August 2007, Turkey)

Q: (Rodrigo Franca ? Racing Magazine) For all three of you, in the 1980’s, it was famous that Nigel Mansell, Nelson Piquet, Ayrton Senna and Alain Prost were four guys who were friends and who were then chasing the title and they stopped being friends… The four of you, including Raikkonen, seem to be friends. Will it be the same when you are chasing the title?
FM: I think first of all, we have a good relationship, but it doesn’t mean we are friends. The other very important thing is that we all have a best friend and it is not always a guy from Formula One, but from other things; maybe a guy who grew up with you or something like that. But I think the relationship is good and everybody respects one another and that is how it has to be. I mean, for sure, a couple of times we are going to have some issues, but that is normal in this sport. But the day after everything is fine, so….
FA: (only does a ‘thumbs-up’, does not speak; laughter)
LH: Same… Next question.

(FIA post-race press conference, 27 May 2007, Monaco)

Q: (Rodrigo Franca ? Racing Magazine) Lewis, what did you learn from GP2 series and who do you see from your old GP2 rivals who could do a good job in Formula One?
LH: GP2 was a great category obviously and it helped boost my opportunity to get into Formula One and is a great stepping-stone for anyone’s career. I haven’t really had the opportunity to watch it as I am so busy during the weekends, but there are lots of drivers there ? without giving any names ? who did a great job and they all have the potential…
FM: Let’s hear about Nelson Piquet… (laughter)

(FIA post-race press conference, 27 May 2007, Monaco)

Q: Now, I keep hearing stories in the press room about a gorilla suit…
KR: (Laughs) Yeah, but was it really me? You don’t know. You hear a lot of stories always from the people there, so…

Q: But you won. Are you going to disclaim the win?
KR: Yeah, we’ve got the trophy already. It was just a boat race and we just went for fun.

(FIA thursday press conference, 2 August 2007, Hungary)

Q: (Peter Farkas - Auto Motor) A questions for all of you. Ron Dennis said in his statement two days ago that whistle blowing should be encouraged in Formula One. What do you think of that?
CK: I think we are not in a position to comment.
AS: Yeah, I think so too.
CK: It is not our problem.
CH: It’s a difficult one. Formula One is a competitive business, people move from team to team and obviously when they move from team to team they take ideas and knowledge with them in their head.
FB: Yes.
CH: But it is supposed to be in their head, not on pieces of paper. I don’t have any drawings of any Renaults.

Hello everyone. How are you? Nice to meet you again.

This time, I have to apologize, because I have problem with Reine, and I can't post some blog contents, including some thoughts in "Another View of Myu-chan" and homework from Talitha. For Another Views, all my thoughts before October 17th will be posted after Reine is cured from her sickness, so does the homework... I really did not remember anything, since.. it's a lot thing to write..

Well, not just because my Reine is sick, but.. I think it's better to hide my heartache for a while.. And when I could post it, I won't cry..

Anyway.. Please pray for my Grammy B (aka Penny) and Reine..

I just remember one thing: Forgive me for any mistakes I have done to all of you, whether if it's deliberate or not. Eid mubarak, everyone!

Also, join the celebration for the new F1 World Champion: Kimi Raikkonen!

Cheers~!

Happy Birthday Kimi Raikkonen!

*hugs*

Wish you a healthy and prosperous life, and a happy marriage with Jenni.

All the best for you.

PS: May your dream for this year come true! :)

Thanks, Soph!

You, too, Muni. Loved you both. *hugs*

Dan, keluarga TPS saya mengingatkan saya pada kakek saya yang membebaskan anak-cucunya memilih agama yang menurut mereka sesuai dan terbaik.. TPS Family seperti itu. Kami terdiri dari berbagai suku, agama, dan ras. Dan kami itu rukun, juga saling menyayangi. Apalagi alasannya kalau bukan, kami itu memang baik, saling membutuhkan, sama-sama penulis.. dan... Kami sama-sama 'gila'!

Mengutip kata saya sendiri:

"Craziness is needed in the family."

ROTFLMAO.

18 Oktober 2007

Mampir ke TPS, dan menemukan bahwa Uncle Greg menulis ini..

"Lady B was hurt two nights ago, in a - sort of a home invasion. She has three broken ribs, a concussion and other injuries, so she is taking a little time off from here."

Aww...

Grammy, get well soon~ *hugs* Take a rest. Your little Princess will take care of the overgrown family forest. Please don't worry..

20 Oktober 2007

Beberapa hari yang lalu, Myu dan Ryorin sepakat tidak mendukung Akang Lewis Hamilton menjadi juara dunia..

Kalau mau tahu siapa yang kami dukung, harusnya Anda sudah tahu.. :P Soalnya itu kan mudah..

Dan, ketidakrelaan saya kalau Akang jadi juara dunia itu ada sebabnya. Bukan, bukan karena saya tak menyukai dia. Dia hebat, dan ya, saya menyukainya.

Tapi inilah alasannya:
Akang masih muda. 22 tahun. Oke, dia kelihatan ramah dan baik pada semua orang. Tapi pria dengan usia 20-an awal masih termasuk labil. Lihat saja buktinya di dekat saya.. *ditimpuks*

Walaupun Akang bisa dikatakan rendah hati dan ramah, tapi perlakuan McLaren dan Ron Dennis bisa membuatnya menjadi egois dan kekanak-kanakan.

Ayolah, Ron, saya tahu kamu menyetir dia supaya mengatakan itu.. Well, saya tahu ia ingin bersaing secara normal dan fair dengan Abang, tapi saya rasa.. Pengaruh dari keinginan pribadi Anda juga ada..

Kemudian, juga karena usianya yang muda. Jika ia menjadi juara dunia, ada godaan yang sangat besar. Mulai dari wanita, hingga godaan mental, seperti.. menjadi besar kepala dan sombong. Terus terang, saya ga mau seorang Lewis Hamilton menjadi besar kepala, sombong dalam sesaat hanya karena ia jadi juara dunia dan memecahkan begitu banyak rekor di usianya yang masih muda...

Lalu, soal wanita. Jika ia jadi juara dunia sekarang, bisakah dia menahan godaan dari begitu banyak wanita di sekitar yang menggodanya? Ayolah.. Masih ada Jodia Ma, kalau kalian belum putus hubungan.. Saya tahu ini urusan pribadi kalian, tapi contohlah pasangan lain, yang baik, dan hubungannya langgeng sampai sekarang...

Memang sekedar kekhawatiran pribadi, tapi yah.. Mau bagaimana lagi? Akang masih muda. Bagaimanapun, kalau akhirnya dia tetap menjadi juara dunia, harapan saya tetap sama. Satu, tetap jadi diri sendiri, jangan terus-terusan mengikuti apa kata Ron. Dua, tetap rendah hati, jangan sombong. Tiga, jangan mudah terpengaruh dan bertahanlah dari gangguan yang menghadang, terutama wanita dan ketenaran.

Untuk Ron, perlakukan Akang sebagai pria dewasa. Biarkan dia menjadi dirinya sendiri. Dia memang anak emas bagimu, tapi sebaiknya, kau tak perlu terlalu mengistimewakan dia atau memperlakukan dia seperti anak kecil. Jangan memanfaatkan dia. Bukankah kau bilang, tak ada nomor satu di Macca? berarti dia juga bukan no.1..

Sebenarnya ada satu alasan lagi, tapi.. Anda kan pasti sudah tahu. Saya tak mungkin membuat Kimi kecewa karena saya tak mendukungnya untuk jadi juara dunia.. ^^;

*kabur*

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Nah, kalau Abang yang menang, gimana?

*kedip-kedip ke Abang* Err... kapan menikahnya? Kan udah tiga kali jadi juara dunia..

*kabur lagi*

*bisik-bisik dari persembunyian* Kan dia sudah cukup lama bersamamu, nak.. :P

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Hmm... tinggal satu lagi.

*lirik Kimi*

*pelototin*

*ambil kardus dan spidol besar*

*tulis: "JENNI DAHLMAN-RAIKKONEN'S HUSBAND"*

*pasang di Kimi* Biar ga ada yang nyuri. :D

*kabur*

Hihi.

Bentar..

*tulis: "MYURIN'S HUSBAND"*

*pasang di Ryorin*

Nah, anak-anak, dilarang TP (tebar pesona) pada suami saya, mengerti?

*pelototin siapapun yang berusaha merebut Kimi dan Ryorin dari istri masing-masing*

Kok kayanya saya galak banget ya..? *rolls eyes*

Biarin ah. Pokoknya kalo ada yang berani nyuri suami saya, saya laporin Grammy, Aunt Moi, atau Uncle Greg. --;

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Reine sakit.. Ga tau kenapa, dari beberapa hari yang lalu, dia ga mau kebaca di mana-mana... di Asuka ga mau, di kompie studio juga ga mau, bahkan tadi pagi di Hasumi juga ga mau...

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Hasil kualifikasi Sabtu ini (sepuluh besar): Felipe, Akang, Kimi, Abang, Webber, Nick, Kubica, Trulli, DC, Rosberg.

22 Oktober 2007, dini hari WIB

Kimi menang! Balapan dan kejuaraan! Yay~!

*nari-nari*

Cerita lengkapnya di bawah aja ya.. Saya lagi senang.. ^^;

Kimi, congratulation! This is your best birthday present ever! *hugs*

*hugs Jenni*

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Ngomong-ngomong, baru kali ini Myu melihat seorang Kimi Raikkonen benar-benar tersenyum ceria di atas podium (dan di konferensi pers). Kerja keras terbayar sudah, eh?

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

O ya, hasil balapan (8 besar): Kimi, Felipe, Abang, Rosberg, Kubica, Nick, Akang, Trulli.

Kimi menang kejuaraan dengan 110 poin, Abang dan Akang seimbang dengan 109 poin, Felipe setelah mereka dengan 94 poin. Di tempat kelima dan enam ada Nick Heidfeld dan Robert Kubica.

22 Oktober 2007, pagi hari WIB

Katanya, mobil Rosberg, Kubica, dan Nick sedang diperiksa atas kemungkinan menggunakan bahan bakar yang ga sesuai aturan alias abnormal. Dengan begitu, mereka mungkin kehilangan poin, dan bisa jadi, Akang yang juara..

Ga relaaa~~

Well, mudah-mudahan bukan usaha untuk memuluskan langkah Lewis Hamilton jadi juara dunia...

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Ambu SMS, katanya:

"Abah curang! Katanya pegang Massa, Kimi menang malah jd pegang Kimi *jitak Kimyu ;-)*"

Dan di HPI (siangnya) ditulis lagi nama yang sama..

Ambuuu~ sejak kapan nama saya dan Kimi berubah, eh?

*blushed*

*getok Ambu*

Duh, serasa kembali ke jaman SMA dulu di mana saya pertama kali jatuh cinta sama seorang Kimi Raikkonen.. (Ya, dengan Kimi! Bukan yang lain! *jitak onii-sama*)

My, my, my~

Ryorin, jangan kelewat cemburu yah..

22 Oktober 2007, sore hari WIB

Dan, hasilnya adalah: Pengawas balapan tidak memberikan sanksi pada BMW dan Williams, karena tak ada cukup bukti. Dan Kimi masih jadi juara.

McLaren masih berusaha mengajukan banding, tapi yah.. Kita nikmati saja dulu kemenangan ini.. :D

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Ternyata Schumi benar-benar ga hadir di balapan kemarin. Katanya dia sebenarnya pengen datang, tapi akhirnya memutuskan, nonton di rumah saja.

Well, bagaimanapun, dia memuji Kimi atas kemenangannya dan juga Felipe. Kedengarannya sih Daddy Schuey senang banget.. ^^

Read his full comments here..

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

O ya, Kimi juga menang DHL Fastest Laps Award. 6 kali fastest lap, dua kali kedua tercepat, dan tiga kali ketiga tercepat. Felipe nomor dua, dengan jumlah fastest lap dan kedua tercepat sama dengan Kimi, sedangkan ia dua kali menjadi yang ketiga tercepat.

Perfect work, Kimster!

Hope you'll do even better next year! Let's plan to be 2008 World Champion!

23 Oktober 2007

Kata Ryorin, Spanyol ikutan pesta gara-gara Akang ga menang…

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Baca di sini, Abang ga rela Akang menang lewat banding. Dan di sini, juga di sini, Akang juga ga mau menang lewat jalur di luar trek.

Bagus lah. Akang masih punya harga diri.. ^^

Luca di Montezemolo juga berkomentar soal banding Macca...

Dan, rupanya walaupun BMW dan Williams melanggar, mereka belum tentu kehilangan poin. Dan Akang belum tentu dapat gelar.

Well, kita akan tetap merayakan kemenangan seorang Ice Man kalau begitu...

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Ah, ya, saya melupakan sesuatu: Grammy B sudah sehat sekarang.. Kemarin beliau mengirimkan PM pada saya..

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Honestly, I feel really guilty to Ryorin recently.. Not just because I forced him to find the cure of Reine’s sickness, but…

I’ve cheated on him. No, this is not about Kimi. It’s about someone else. An online friend.. I don’t know, but I could feel that I am cheating right now… I know I’m doing that.

Gosh.. I’m trapped. Between my loyalty to Ryorin, and my desire to set him free. Free from me, and from my life curse. Yeah, I’m cursed. No one will be happy if they live together with me. And I’m afraid he will suffered from that, too..

And that’s why.. Without really knowing at first.. I’m cheating. And I realized that I am cheating.. Just now.

I dunno.. If he reads this, it’s up to him if he gets angry… It’s all up to him…

BRAZILIAN GRAND PRIX - FORMULA ONE 2007 - INTERLAGOS - REPORT

Greetings. Welcome to Interlagos, where there are three possibilities that would be happened. One, we will have a new world champion and there would be some new records written in the F1 history (e.g, youngest world champion and first rookie to be a world-champion). Two, there would be a new world champion, but 'no record'.. And, three, there would be no new world champion, as the running world champion claims his title once again and joined the list of the people who win the championship three times in a row.

At this final round of the year, three championship contenders will fight each other to win the supreme title of the year. Lewis Hamilton, the amazing rookie. Fernando Alonso, the running world champion. And, Kimi Raikkonen, the Ice Man who ever got the vice world-champion title twice.

From the driver's side, Lewis was consistent throughout the year, and he almost always standing in the podium, save for his 'incidents and mistakes' at Shanghai, Nurburgring, Turkey, and Belgium. Fernando, is the 2006 world champion, and he is still as good as before. Last, Kimi, like what I've said before, is two time vice world-champion, is awaken from his 'hibernation' through the first half of the season, and really wants to get the title as his 'birthday present' (All of you should have known his birthday, right? :P).

From the team side, McLaren was hot. Until now, even Ron Dennis said that he would not treat either Lewis or Fernando differently, we can't just believe, because of what happened last September in France. While from Ferrari side, there is a good atmosphere. Felipe Massa said that even he wants to win his home-race, if he should help Kimi to win the championship, he will do that. That's from the mental side. From the cars' side, McLaren is good and consistent all the year, save for the scandal thingy, and Ferrari is getting better recently. It will be a hard race, of course.

So.. Who will win the race and the championship? Anything could be happened today. Let's just see.

The previous day, Felipe Massa secured the pole position, while his team mate Kimi Raikkonen failed to secured the second place as Lewis Hamilton beat him in the very last minutes. Fernando Alonso was fourth, Mark Webber fifth, Nick Heidfeld sixth, Robert Kubica seventh, Jarno Trulli eighth, David Coulthard ninth, and Nico Rosberg tenth.

And.. Here we go.

As the race started, both the Ferrari have a smooth start. Felipe Massa led the race, Kimi Raikkonen passed Lewis Hamilton, and Lewis was fighting each other with Fernando Alonso. Lewis was pushing too hard after Alonso passed him, causing him to lose some position as he ran wide. Yellow flag was on for a while because a problem with Heikki Kovalainen's car.

Lap 2, Sakon Yamamoto crashed from behind with Giancarlo Fisichella car. Yellow flag was on.

Lap 4, Lewis Hamilton was still pushing hard behind Nick Heidfeld, but Nick was also maintaining his position very hard so Lewis could not pass him.

Lap 7, Nick Heidfeld got a bit wide and Lewis took advantage as he passed the German driver.

Lap 8, Lewis's car was slowing down. Seems his car has a bit problem. He lost a lot of position. At the time, he was 18th. Felipe was still leading, Kimi second, Alonso third.

Lap 12, Felipe was still leading over 43 s ahead of Hamilton who was 16th at the time. Both Ferraris are driving away from Fernando Alonso.

Lap 16, Lewis passed Ralf. Webber retired.

Lap 18, Felipe Massa set the fastest lap. He was still leading over 1,8 s ahead of Kimi and over 12 s ahead of Alonso.

Lap 20, Felipe Massa pitted. Kimi led the race, and also pitted one lap after that.

Lap 22, Fernando Alonso was in for a stop. Hamilton also in after him. Short pitstop for Hamilton (5,8 s). Button retired. Felipe leads, Kimi second, Alonso fourth, Lewis 14th.

Lap 25, Sutil and Ant spun together as Sutil collided with Ant's car.

Lap 26, Nick Heidfeld pitted. Kimi was about 3 s behind the race leader Felipe Massa. Takuma Sato also pitted.

Lap 31, Kubica is slightly faster than Alonso. He was giving some pressures to Alonso.

Lap 32, there was a little incident at Williams's pit. Nakajima hit two of the crews with his car as he hit the brake pedal too late. Kubica passed Alonso and become third.

Lap 35, car number 20 was penalized for causing a collision on lap 25.

Lap 37, Lewis Hamilton pitted for the second time. He spent 6,5 s at the pit this time.

Lap 40, yellow flag was on as Sebastian Vettel out of the race. Alonso back in third.

Lap 41, Barrichello's car was smoking as he entered the pit lane.

Anyway, there was Mika Hakkinen at McLaren's garage. I wonder where's Schumi...

21 laps to go, Felipe pitted and rejoined second. Kimi led the race.

20 laps to go, Heidfeld pitted. Kimi still leads the race, not yet to have another pit stop.

19 laps to go, Alonso pitted for the second time. 6,2 s. Kimi in one lap after Alonso. 6,4 s. Kimi led the race, still.

Hopefully nothing bad happened with Kimi..

15 laps remaining, Lewis pitted again for the third time that day. He rejoined ninth.

13 laps remaining, Kubica pitted. Alonso now third.

12 laps remaining, Lewis set a new fastest lap. Kimi was the second fastest.

11 laps remaining, 14 drivers were still racing, while other 8 drivers were retired.

10 laps remaining, DC spun as he collided with Nakajima's car.

7 laps remaining, Trulli pitted. Kimi Raikkonen still leads.

5 laps remaining, Kimi set a new fastest lap.

4 laps remaining, Kubica was fighting with Rosberg and he got fourth place.

3 laps remaining, Rosberg finally passed Kubica.

And~ Kimi Raikkonen won the Brazilian GP and is now the 2007 Formula 1 World Champion! Yay! *throws confetti*

For the race: Kimi Raikkonen first, Felipe Massa second, Fernando Alonso third, Nico Rosberg fourth, Robert Kubica fifth, Nick Heidfeld sixth, Lewis Hamilton seventh, Jarno Trulli eighth.

For the championship: Kimi Raikkonen won the drivers world championship with 110 points, Lewis Hamilton second with 109 points, tied with Fernando Alonso, and Felipe Massa fourth with 94 points. Fifth is Nick Heidfeld, and sixth is Robert Kubica.

A great day, a hot and wonderful race. The new world champion is now here.

Kimi, congratulation! This is your best birthday present ever! *hugs*

Menemukan mainan bagus di sini dan di sini juga... Hasil dari keisengan meng-klik link games di web-nya Make Roads Safe

Ngomong-ngomong, jadi ingat ide tentang mengundang Michael Schumacher kampanye Make Roads Safe ke Indonesia....

Serius nih, apalagi setelah melihat laporan mereka. Tingkat kecelakaan di negara-negara Asia Tenggara itu cukup besar, dan perkiraan perubahan angka kematian akibat traffic lalu lintas dari tahun 2000 hingga 2020 cukup mengerikan (peningkatan 144%, dari data tahun 2003)...

Nah, gimana? Setuju?

Catatan: Daddy Schuey adalah anggota Commission for Global Road Safety...

Jadi, anak-anak, dan juga bapak-bapak, dan juga.. ibu-ibu.. Hati-hati kalau mengemudi. Jangan ngebut di jalan. Jangan minum. Kalau ga, tanggung sendiri akibatnya.

Dan.. Jangan parkir sembarangan juga. Nyebrang jalan juga jangan sembarangan..

Tapi, eh, tapi~ kalau mau nyebrang di zebra cross pas lampu merah aja masih di-klakson-in sama orang yang mau parkir di situ (TEPAT di zebra cross!), gimana bisaaaaaa~? *grumbles*

Yah, itu pengalaman saya, nak. Jadi jangan heran kalau saya ngomel-ngomel tiap kali mau nyebrang jalan, dan/atau jalanan ramai..

C'mon, Kimster! Beat him!

O ya, hasil kualifikasi: Akang, Kimi, Felipe, Abang. Err.. lainnya lupa. Pokoknya ada Toyota sama Honda di sepuluh besar, itu aja.

Btw, rasanya hari ini tetap 'sempurna'. Fastest lap hari ini masih tetap Kimi! Yay!

Hehe. Biasanya orang yang mencetak waktu tercepat di kualifikasi itu kan yang dapet pole position pada sesi terakhir, tapi yang ini malah yang nyetak orang lain pas sesi kedua..

Yah, emang ga penting..

FORMULA ONE – CHINESE GRAND PRIX – SHANGHAI - REPORT

Hello! Welcome to Shanghai, where Lewis Hamilton may makes some new records in Formula 1 History. If he finished in front of Kimi and Alonso, or at least better than sixth position, there's no doubt, he's the new world champion. But if he failed, he must wait until the final race at Interlagos.

Yesterday, the McLaren driver took the pole, after a hot qualifying sessions. His teammate Fernando Alonso, qualified fourth, while Felipe Massa from Ferrari would start from third grid. The Ferrari star Kimi Raikkonen, who was the number one in first and second session of qualifying, would start the race from second place.

A few days ago, Hamilton and Sebastian Vettel was interrogated, along with Mark Webber, about Hamilton's driving in Japan last week, which causes Vettel and Webber to crash. I don't know what exactly they had said, but neither Hamilton nor Vettel is given a penalty, except for a brief warning.

And~ A few minutes before the race, the weather forecast came. It would be raining in about 6 minutes.

That's true. When the race started, the rain also started to fall. Lewis Hamilton had a clear start, followed by Kimi Raikkonen, while Fernando Alonso was battling with Felipe Massa. He passed Felipe, but a few turns later, Massa got his third place back. Meanwhile, Ralf Schumacher spun, but managed to rejoins.

The rain was still falling on lap 2. A Super Aguri and A Honda spun. They rejoined, however.

Lap 8, Vettel passed Kovalainen.

Lap 9, Again, Kovalainen was passed by another driver, now by Jarno Trulli.

Lap 12, Nico Rosberg was quite close to Jenson Button and tried really hard to get past him. Hamilton led by about 7,2 s ahead of Kimi.

Lap 13, Ant lost control of his car, and retired. Yellow flag was on.

Lap 15, the yellow flag only lasts for about 2 laps. Rosberg was battling so hard with Button, and now, he managed to pass Button.

Lap 16, Hamilton pitted for the first time and rejoined fourth. Kimi led the race.

Lap 18, Felipe pitted, rejoined sixth.
Lap 19,
Fernando Alonso, the running world-champion, also had a pit-stop. He was back to the race track behind Massa. Kimi set a fastest lap. Adrian Sutil spun, but managed to rejoins the race. In the end of the lap, Kimi had a pit stop and rejoined second.

Lap 20, Coulthard pitted.

It's already lap 22, and we had another weather forecast. While the track was drying, they said it would be raining again in 10 minutes.

A few laps after the weather forecast, Ralf tried to pass Liuzzi, but he collided and spun.

Lap 25, Alex Wurz set a new fastest lap.

Lap 26, Alonso was giving pressures to Massa and they was battling each other. The hard battle
was ended with.. Felipe going into the pit to have a pit-stop, and he rejoined sixth. In the meantime, Ralf Schumacher spun and retired.

Two laps after it, on lap 28, Adrian Sutil crashed and retired from the race. Again, yellow flag was on. Kimi was already 0,8 s behind Hamilton and started to giving pressures to Hamilton.

He was getting closer and closer, trying to get past Hamilton whenever he had a chance, but Hamilton retained the lead.

Lap 29, finally, Raikkonen passed Hamilton as the British driver made a little mistake, and the Iceman now led the race. Nico Rosberg spun and retired while he was battling against Kovalainen. Kovalainen also spun, but he rejoined.

Lap 31, Alonso was quite faster than Hamilton.

Lap 32, Hamilton tried to enter the pit for his second stop, but he oversteered, missed the pit lane's entry, and trapped in the gravel near the pit lane entry. He asked the marshalls nearby to help him push his car back on the track, but their attempts was useless. Hamilton forced to retired from the race.

Lap 33, Kimi pitted. Alonso also pitted soon after Kimi.

Lap 34, the yellow flag was off. Kubica now led, but he ran wide and retired after trying really hard to have his car back on the track.

19 laps remaining, Kimi set a new fastest lap. Alex Wurz pitted.

18 laps remaining, Kimi ran a bit wide through a corner. Alonso was slightly faster than him.

While the track was drying, a few drivers seemed to get a bit wide in some turns..

13 laps remaining, Liuzzi was now seventh, battling against Nick Heidfeld.

10 laps remaining, Kimi led by over 8 s ahead of Alonso. Liuzzi was still in a battle with Heidfeld.

7 laps remaining, the Iceman was over 9 s ahead of Alonso at that time.

5 laps remaining, Kimi set another fastest lap. Now he was 10 s ahead of Alonso.

4 laps remaining, Felipe Massa was getting closer to Fernando Alonso. He also set a new fastest lap.

Finally, the race ended with Kimi Raikkonen as the winner, followed by Fernando Alonso in second place and Felipe Massa in third place. Fourth was Sebastian Vettel, fifth was Jenson Button, sixth was Vitantonio Liuzzi, seventh was Nick Heidfeld, and eighth was David Coulthard. The fastest lap was set by Felipe Massa, and 6 drivers was retired, including the world-champion-to-be, Lewis Hamilton.

With this result, the drivers' championship battle will be continued until the final race at Brazil. Hamilton only needs to finish third, if either Kimi or Alonso wins the next race. Of course, he shouldn't retired, or there would be no new record in Formula 1.

We'll keep waiting for the final showdown.. If Hamilton wins the championship and managed to write down a few records in Formula 1 history, I just want one thing from him: Don't be over confident. And always be a kind-hearted man. Also, don't forget to always be yourself. It is different when you talk as a representative of your team and as yourself. Remember that fans will hate you if you become very arrogant just because you have become a famous world champion, and set some new records...

And.. to Kimi: Always be a shy, icy but kind Kimi Raikkonen. We love you that way.

Edit-to-add: Apparently, both Macca and Hamilton made a mistake during the race, with the decision of suspending the pit-stop time, when Hamilton tires were running out. And, that win is the 200th win for Ferrari.

The Moon is a card of magic and mystery - when prominent you know that nothing is as it seems, particularly when it concerns relationships. All logic is thrown out the window.

The Moon is all about visions and illusions, madness, genius and poetry. This is a card that has to do with sleep, and so with both dreams and nightmares. It is a scary card in that it warns that there might be hidden enemies, tricks and falsehoods. But it should also be remembered that this is a card of great creativity, of powerful magic, primal feelings and intuition. You may be going through a time of emotional and mental trial; if you have any past mental problems, you must be vigilant in taking your medication but avoid drugs or alcohol, as abuse of either will cause them irreparable damage. This time however, can also result in great creativity, psychic powers, visions and insight. You can and should trust your intuition.

Hi. Nice to meet you again.

As I promised last time, there is another article from the in love with series.. Now with Kimi Raikkonen.

ANOTHER VIEW OF MYU-CHAN

18 September 2007

Sara hilang.. Cuma 10 hari menjelang ulang tahunnya.

Dan ayahnya sama sekali tidak peduli. He doesn't care about ANYTHING BUT HIMSELF.

Mum sih bilang supaya bikin pengumuman, yang menemukan Sara nanti diberi imbalan.. Tapi saya udah kadung putus asa... Apalagi Ryorin cuek.

Well, she's just an USB flash disk. But she's already like my own daughter... And she go away with all the works and memories I made with her...

And for now, I really HATE her father. Such a fuckingly damned man.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Duh, kalau saya memang membosankan, kenapa sih dia masih menulis 'Proud to be the Cat Princess' soulmate'? Kenapa dia masih mempertahankan saya?

Kenapa tiap kali saya minta dia mencari wanita lain, yang sesuai dengan seleranya, yang ga manja, ga egois, ga membosankan, dia malah ga mau? Padahal sudah jelas... Dia tidak menyukai saya lagi. Myu ini kan terlalu manja buat dia...

*sighs*

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Tiba-tiba teringat sesuatu: Pernah, suatu saat, Myu nonton Oprah Winfrey Show. Dan di sana, salah satu tamunya adalah seorang tuna netra (saya lupa namanya). Dia buta sejak lahir, bahkan ga punya mata, sampai diberi mata buatan (sebagai kosmetik). Tapi, sejak kecil dia pintar banget main piano. Sampai suatu saat, dia masuk college (CMIIW), dan gurunya menyuruh dia masuk marching band daripada paduan suara. Jelas dong, dia kesal. Ayahnya juga begitu. Orang udah tau dia buta kaya gitu kok malah disuruh ikut marching band. Udah buta, pakai kursi roda lagi. Tapi rupanya si guru ini punya rencana lain. Ia ingin membangkitkan rasa percaya diri yang sesungguhnya pada diri sang anak. Dan, yah, dia jadi satu-satunya anggota marching band yang naik kursi roda dan bawa pendamping, yaitu ayahnya sendiri...

Lalu ketika ia muncul di acaranya Oprah, dia baru mendapatkan anugerah dari UNICEF (kalau ga salah), sebagai anak muda berbakat yang memberi inspirasi bagi anak-anak lain. Dan di situ, dia mengatakan satu hal yang benar-benar membuat Myu terharu: Bahwa dia melihat kebutaannya itu bukan sebagai ketidakmampuan, tapi sebagai kemampuan. Orang lain bisa melihat warna kulit, rambut, mata, pakaian, dll, tapi dia mampu melihat sesuatu yang lain yang ada pada diri setiap orang: Cinta.

Sesuatu yang bahkan Myu sendiri ga bisa lihat bener-bener wujudnya seperti apa...

Well, cinta mungkin buta. Tapi sesungguhnya, kita sendiri juga buta soal cinta. Karena cinta memang ga bisa dilihat dengan mata...

20 September 2007

Sara belum juga pulang.. Dan Myu benar-benar rindu...

Tapi Myu yakin, Sara pasti pulang. Pasti, karena Sara punya rumah.

Myu ga mau Sara seperti Ei, yang benar-benar ga kembali..

Sara, pulang ya..

*hopes*

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Nonton Kick Andy, dan kali ini, topiknya adalah: Blak-blakan dengan Kanjeng Sri Sultan Hamengku Buwono X.

Ada beberapa hal yang saya kagumi dari Kanjeng Sultan: ramah, baik, demokratis, namun tetap berusaha menjunjung tinggi adat-istiadat. Satu hal yang membuat saya sedikit tersindir dan kagum di saat yang sama:

Ketika Kanjeng Sultan ditanya, mau jadi apa beliau seandainya bisa dilahirkan kembali, beliau mengatakan bahwa (intinya) dia tidak mau dilahirkan kembali, dan dia menerima dirinya (baik dirinya yang sekarang, atau dirinya kalau bisa dilahirkan kembali) apa adanya. Kira-kira begitu. Tapi justru perkataan Kanjeng Sultan yang ini yang membuat hati saya seakan ditusuk jarum. Bagaimana tidak? Wong biasanya kita itu kan kalau ditanya hal yang sama, pasti pengen yang enak. Kalau hidup kita sekarang enak, pengen yang sama atau lebih enak lagi. Kalau hidup kita nggak enak, maunya ya yang enak, kalau perlu jadi putri raja, atau milyuner sekalian.

Bermimpi sih memang boleh-boleh saja, tapi kan seperti apa yang tersurat dan tersirat dalam perkataan Kanjeng Sultan, bahwa kita ini harus menjalani hidup kita seperti adanya, mensyukuri apa adanya diri kita ini. Karena hidup itu ga selalu enak, walaupun ada yang kelihatannya seperti itu. Hidup itu pasti ada suka dan dukanya..

Jadi, buat Kanjeng Sultan Hamengku Buwono X, matur sembah nuwun, atas pelajaran-pelajarannya yang berharga. Mungkin Kanjeng Sultan tidak merasa ingin memberi petuah, nasehat, atau pelajaran pada orang-orang yang menonton acara itu, tapi dengan segenap hati, saya berterima kasih pada Kanjeng Sultan karena banyak yang saya pelajari dari seorang Sri Sultan Hamengku Buwono X.

25 September 2007

Hasumi tiba-tiba ngambek, keluar layar biru gitu. Untung aja waktu di-cek Ryorin, ternyata ga apa-apa, cuma ada kekacauan waktu defrag (plus listrik mati sesaat)..

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Sara belum pulang juga.. padahal ulang tahunnya tinggal 3 hari lagi..

Bukan apa-apa, kalau Sara pergi bawa topinya, gpp.. Tapi dia meninggalkan topi jerami kesayangannya pada saya..

(Well, kalau kau tak tahu, topi untuk usb mp3 flash disk = tempat baterai.. ^^)

Meskipun Myu punya yang baru (adiknya Sara, Mareinetta aka Reine, red.), Myu masih mengharapkan Sara pulang... Karena Myu sudah cukup kehilangan Luna, Ei, dan Taiyou... Myu ga mau bener-bener kehilangan Sara...

28 September 2007

Hari ini Sara ultah. Dan dia belum juga pulang..

Mungkin ga akan pernah pulang lagi..

Entahlah...

Gosh... I really missed her...

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Pas conference, dikasih Reff link-link berita, dan entah kenapa, saya lebih tertarik pada berita ini daripada berita bayi prematur 15 minggu

Ya~ Gimana ya... Kayanya saya bakal melakukan hal yang sama kalau jadi si ibu sopir...

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Dan, baca blognya Ambu yang ini..

Myu kok merasa aneh ya? Ga, ga, bukan soal FPI-nya~!

Kalau itu, saya setuju berat. FPI kan memang Forum Perusuh Indonesia. Bleh. :P

(Bodo amat, emang mereka baca blog ini gitu? Lagian, emang mereka kenal saya? :P)

Ya, masalah puasa dengan atau tanpa godaan itu.. Emang sih, lebih berat kalau ada godaan..

Masalahnya, Myu ini kalau ngeliat makanan ada di depan mata ga tergoda.. Tapi kalau ada orang ngomongin makanan doang tanpa ada barangnya di depan Myu, Myu bisa sewot berat... ^^;

Jadi mending, kalau mau ngomongin makanan tanpa bikin Myu ngambek-ngambek... Bawa makanannya sekalian, atau paling ga, bagi skrinsyut-nya, atau... tolong kasih tau resepnya ama Myu.. :P

*kabur sejauh mungkin*

29 September 2007

Euh, pas kualifikasi ada yellow flag... Rupanya Uncle Ralf nabrak mobil lain..

Yah, kok bisa-bisanya.. Untung pas Q1 udah tinggal 0 detik..

Dan, tampaknya tadi pagi hujan di Jepang..

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Hasil kualifikasi siang ini: Akang Lewis, Abang Fernando, Kimi, Felipe.. 4L deh.

Ya~ Yang muda ga boleh mendahului yang lebih tua ya~

Lah, kan bener. Yang lebih muda ga boleh mendahului yang lebih tua.. Nikahnya.. :P

(Apa hubungannya sama hasil kualifikasi coba..?)

*kabur*

Umm, dan, btw, ada satu Toro Rosso di sepuluh besar.. ^^;

30 September 2007

Akang bilang, dia ga pengen Abang ada di McLaren lagi. Tapi dia tetep pengen balapan, bersaing secara normal dengan Abang.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Hujan~! Euh. Myu sih seneng-seneng aja, tapi cowok satu itu (Kimi, red.) kan mengkhawatirkan kalau hujan..

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Terus, Alex Wurz punya anak.. Lagi~!

Whoa~! Congrats, Alex! *hugs*

Jadi, kapan...

Kapan saya nikah dan punya anak..?

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Akang dan Abang sempat melintir.. Felipe kena drive through penalty...

Kimi? Untung dia ga apa-apa.. Tampak baik-baik saja hari ini...

Tapi Abang nabrak dinding! Dan berhenti balapan..

Duh, Abang.. Kok bisa-bisanya nabrak... T.T

Mana mobilnya hancur gitu..

(Dan Ryorin malah teriak, 'hore~!', waktu Myu kasih tau..)

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Dan~ hasilnya adalah.. Akang, Heikki, Kimi, DC, Fisico, Felipe, Kubica, Liuzzi.

*hugs Kimi and Felipe*

I bet Finnish fan will be happy today.. Two Finnish on the top! ^^

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Btw, tampaknya saya harus sering 'mengomel' di depan TV kalau Kimi balapan di bawah guyuran hujan..

Soalnya, kalau gitu, dia malah ga kenapa-kenapa.. ^^;

*kabur*

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Dan~ Kenapa jadi pada minum champagne dulu sebelum disemprotin? Sejak kapan Kimi mengajarkan minum dulu sebelum disemprotin..?

*kabur sebelum digetok Akang, Heikki, dan Kimi*

FORMULA ONE – JAPANESE GRAND PRIX – FUJI SPEEDWAY - REPORT

Konnichiwa~! Fuji Speedway e youkoso!

Yesterday, rain was pouring down above the renewed Fuji circuit. On the end of Q1, Ralf Schumacher accidentally crashed with Sakon Yamamoto’s car. And finally, Lewis Hamilton got the pole position, with Fernando Alonso behind him. Kimi Raikkonen of Ferrari ended up third, while his team mate Felipe Massa was fourth. There was a little surprise from Jenson Button, who was seventh, and, Sebastian Vettel, who was ninth on qualifying. But, since Nico Rosberg who was sixth changed his engine, he has to dropped down a few position, and Button would start from the sixth place.

And, I heard a news about Lewis Hamilton. He said that he doesn’t want Alonso to be racing for McLaren next year, and that he want to be number one in McLaren. But He also said that he want to race against Fernando Alonso fairly. People said that Lewis told this because of Alonso’s email that made McLaren lost all their points.

Well, I don’t know, but.. Hearing Lewis, I remembered my friend who said Alonso was strange since he want to be number one. Well, it’s my friend who was STRANGE. And now it is not just strange, but funny as well, since a man named Lewis Hamilton also desired to be number one in Macca…

Guess it’s just normal…

Meanwhile, in the Ferrari, Felipe Massa is ready to help Kimi Raikkonen to win the drivers’ championship if he is ordered to do that.

Enough for the chit-chat. Let’s enjoy the race!

Anyway, it’s cloudy there…

Wait! It is R-A-I-N-Y!!

So, the start was ordinary and usual, except that Safety Car was leading, and the pit lane was open.

Even I didn’t noticed it WAS a start..

From Heikki’s radio on lap 3, they said that the condition is getting worse. Meanwhile, in the beginning of lap 4, Kimi Raikkonen entered the pit for a stop.

Seems that it’s a little bit better than the rain at Nurburgring..

Lap 7, Lewis Hamilton was still leading. Safety Car was still on the track, too. The Ferrari duo are number 20 and 21.

I’m waiting for the rain to be stopped, and a dry track, since.. It seems that this time, we have a boring rainy race…

Anyway, Alex Wurz had a new baby boy last night.. Congrats~!

It’s already 10 laps, and the Safety Car was still there.

Lap 12, Liuzzi was having a pit stop.

Well, I barely could see through the mist… It’s really thick..

Lap 14, it’s Sakon Yamamoto’s turn to have a stop. Lewis was still leading, Alonso second, and Heidfeld third. Sebastian Vettel sixth.

Lap 15, Kimi entered the pit.. Once more..

And that makes me feel even more and more.. Worried.

C’mon, Kimster, stop making me worried…

One lap after, Massa also pitted. Alex Wurz also in for a stop a while after that.

Felipe got a drive trough penalty for overtaking under the lead of the Safety Car. Silly boy.

And~ when it’s already about 19 laps, the Safety Car was back to the pit lane. Everything id restarted. Felipe crashed with Alex Wurz. He continued racing, but Alex retired. Yellow flag.

Lewis first, Alonso second, and Sebastian Vettel was third. Felipe was in, to the pit, once more..

The yellow flag only lasts for about 2-3 laps. Lap 23, Takuma Sato was having a pit stop. And his car was burned~! But he kept rejoin the race. Fortunately, the fire was out… Kimi Raikkonen was 12 at the same time.

Good luck, Kimster~!

After a few times struggling, finally Kimi passed Ralf Schumacher, and became eleventh.

Lap 27, Alonso came in to the pit. Lewis did the same thing about one lap after. Sebastian Vettel led the race~!

Lap 31, Vettel was still leading, Hamilton third, Alonso eighth.

Lap 33, Vettel pitted from the lead. And now, Webber led the race. Lewis second, Alonso seventh, Kimi tenth. I lost Felipe’s track.

Lap 34, Hamilton spun, and dropped back to fourth place.

Lap 36, Alonso also spun. He was tenth after that.

Lap 37, Hamilton got a problem. He was much more slower at that time. Kimi eighth, Alonso ninth.

30 laps remaining, and now Heikki Kovalainen led the race. Hamilton fourth, Kimi seventh, Alonso eighth.

28 laps to go, the fourth race leader, Heikki, came into the pit. Kubica had a drive through penalty for causing a collision. Kimi fifth, Alonso sixth.

And, Kimi pitted for the third time one lap after that. Maybe also for the last time. Kubica did his penalty.

Lap 42, Yamamoto spun. Fisichella pitted. Lewis back on the lead. Alonso retired after collided into the wall. Yellow flag, and the Safety Car was deployed. Felipe Massa was sixth.

22 laps to go, Webber was out of the race after being hit by Vettel. Vettel was also out.

20 laps remaining, the Safety Car was in to the pit lane.

18 laps to go, Lewis led the race over 2 s ahead of Heikki. Felipe third, Kimi fifth.

14 laps remaining, Ralf Schumacher retired..

And, just one lap after that, Ant spun and became the next driver who retired. Yellow flag was on, again. Kimi was still pushing REALLY hard behind Coulthard.

Kimster, be careful, okay?

10 laps to go. Finallly, Kimi passed DC, and became fourth. Massa was in to the pit for a new set of tires. He rejoined ninth.

7 laps remaining, and now Kimi Raikkonen was doing a rampage. He was pushing his car in order to try to get past Heikki. Meanwhile, Rubens Barrichello was pitted. The Toyota of Jarno Trulli also pitted one lap after that.

Only 2 laps before the end, Nick Heidfeld was retired. Kimi was still fighting with Heikki until the end of the race. Felipe also battled against Kubica and ended up sixth.

And~ Lewis Hamilton won the Japanese Grand Prix, second was Heikki Kovalainen, third was Kimi Raikkonen, fourth was David Coulthard, fifth was Giancarlo Fisichella, sixth was Felipe Massa, seventh was Robert Kubica, and the last point goes to Vitantonio Liuzzi.

Edit-to-Add: According to this, Liuzzi was penalised for overtaking under the Safety Car, and the final point goes to Spyker's Adrian Sutil.

IN LOVE WITH... KIMI RAIKKONEN

(This is actually a re-write, the original one is missing, along with my daughter, Sharazade...)

Maybe all of you wonders why I write about Kimi, not Fernando Alonso, Lewis Hamilton, or even..Felipe Massa. I don't know about it myself, since actually I don't really know much about him. But this article is all about the thing called 'first love', or to be more exact, 'first love at the first sight'.

Like Peter Sauber, I can't believe why I could fallen in love with this 27 years-old guy from the first time I saw him. That was on Australian GP 2001, his first GP. At that time, I saw him finished sixth with Sauber, and one thing instanty came to my mind: This guy is great.

Later, I found out who was that man: He's Kimi Raikkonen, a Finnish driver. And he was... Cute! Well, Kimi was really cute back then, when he's still 22.

Yeah, Kimi really attracted me since the first time I saw him. When I was having a summercamp with my friend at the beach, we were sitting around the fire and chatting. One of them asked me, who was my first love. Well, the actual guy was my friend at school, but since I am too embarassed to say who he was, I told my friend that it was.. Kimi Raikkonen.

Of course, everyone's laughing at that time, and they told me that I didn't know what is the difference between love and adore. Well, but I love cute boys.. ^^; (Don't ask why I could fall in love with Ryorin.. He stole my heart in almost the same STRANGE way as Kimi did...)

So, instead of finding every information about the guy I was chasing at that time, I tried to find everything about Kimi. And~ I found that his birthday is only 1 day after that friend of mine (my friend was 16th, and Kimi was 17th. Both are on October). Voila~! What a coincidence.. And sure, my love for him grow even larger and larger...

He almost always impressed me, even since his first season with Sauber Petronas. I'm a little disappointed when he joined McLaren to replace Mika Hakkinen (2002), since his performa with McLaren was a bit up and down.. Well, you know. And I was badly wanting him to join Ferrari at that time ('cause I don't like Macca at all). He was still impressive, anyway, except if he got problem with the car...

After 5 years, 5 seasons of love-and-hate, finally Kimi joined Ferrari. Now, to replace Michael Schumacher who was going to be retired in the end of 2006. I was happy, but I was also sad. Happy because what I want is realized. Sad because.. Schumi wasn't there anymore. Well, I love Felipe, but my dream team was always Ferrari with Schumi and Kimi as the drivers.. See how the driver's names rhyme!

Err~ What should I talk about now..? Really, I don't know what again to write. I've told you before, eh? That I don't really know much about him?

Oh, yes. Why did I fall in love with him.. Sure, that was his cool and calm demeanor. I love cool people. Also, Kimi doesn’t talk too much. *g*

And, that's all. The only things I know about Kimi are that we have some similarities, that he has a beautiful wife named Jenni (I'm serious, Jenni! *g*), and that he has two dogs... Oh, and every other fact about him that I know, I would like to keep it secret, which means you have to find out about that yourselves. :P

Well, not much people that could impressed me and made me fall in love at the first sight. Not just because the physical appearance, but also because of the performa, because of what he/she's been doing at that time. And Kimi Raikkonen, a guy from Espoo, Finland, who is going to celebrate his 28th birthday this October, did that to me.

So~ See you next week. Bye~!

ANOTHER VIEW OF MYU-CHAN

Hasumi ngambek, entah kenapa...

Nah, begitu dia ga ngambek, keyboardnya rusak..

Hebatnya, yang rusak itu tombol angka, Esc, F1... Sumpah, keren banget. T.T

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Mau puasa, malah sariawan.. Doh.

Udah di dalem, gede lagi.. Amit-amit deh sakitnya.. T.T

Lebih parahnya lagi, mulut rasanya jadi kering banget. Panas dalam kali yah?

14 September 2007

Akhirnya, keputusan sidang banding kasus spionase McLaren vs Ferrari pun keluar. McLaren dikeluarkan dari kejuaraan dan semua poin yang telah mereka dapat selama ini, dicabut. Bukan cuma itu, mereka juga terkena denda sebesar US$100 juta dan setiap kali Abang atau Akang menang, ga boleh ada representative Macca di podium.

Tapi, karena Abang, juga Akang (dan Pedro) telah melakukan sesuatu yang hebat, mereka diberi 'amnesti'. Poin mereka tidak dicabut dan berhak melanjutkan pertempuran di atas trek. Kenapa? Karena sikap sportif dan kooperatif mereka tentang kasus ini. Anda tentu tahu apa bukti baru yang menyebabkan Macca tergusur, bukan? Email dan SMS Abang Fernando dan Pedro soal setelan mobil dari data tersebut.

Well, saya bahagia. Bukan karena saya fans Ferrari, tapi karena saya menghargai keputusan FIA. Macca memang patut mendapatkannya, karena mereka saya rasa tidak begitu kooperatif dalam penyelesaian kasus ini. Oke, memang Stepney dan Coughlan melakukan ini demi kepentingan pribadi, tapi kenapa Macca masih berusaha melindungi Coughlan - meskipun katanya dia 'diberhentikan sementara'? Sementara, Alonso dan de la Rosa sempat 'memaksa' Coughlan menyingkirkan dokumen itu, karena mereka masih berpikir jernih.

Yah, kadang pembalap jauh lebih sportif dan kooperatif daripada tim-nya...

The Scandal's Timeline

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Rupanya, Daddy Schuey saya sudah mundur dari kesibukan seputar F1 sejak GP Hungaria kemarin... Dan memilih untuk di rumah saja, main game golf.

Tapi kenapa dia masih ada di trek saat GP Italia kemarin ya? Menengok perkembangan Kimi dan Felipe?

Dan satu hal, ia meninggalkan pesan berupa 10 kiat jadi juara dunia ala Schumi. Di mana ia seakan berkata kalau Kimi jadi pembalap no.1, jadikan Felipe yang ke-2 (atau cari pendamping lain yang seperti Felipe). Tapi kalau Felipe jadi no.1, jangan ada Kimi (alias jangan jadikan Kimi pembalap no.2, kecuali Anda benar-benar orang yang bisa membujuk dia dan mengambil hatinya - dan itu *sangat* susah).

Ia memang cukup mengerti tipikal kedua pewarisnya - Kimi dan Felipe. Ga heran dia bisa bilang begitu. Felipe bisa jadi pembalap no.1 atau sekedar pendamping, tapi Kimi? Dia mungkin bakal bilang (dengan gaya kalem dan cueknya yang khas) tak masalah kalau dijadikan nomor 2, tapi Anda harus tahu bagaimana cara membujuk dia. Masalahnya, ia adalah seorang pembalap natural, dan kalau Kimi ingin sesuatu, itu harus terwujud... Dan keinginannya sekarang adalah jadi nomor satu, bukan nomor dua.

Singkatnya, inilah tips jadi juara dunia ala Michael Schumacher (lengkapnya baca sendiri di kolom milik Peter Windsor di F1Racing September):
1. Fokus pada satu pembalap. Kalau keduanya sama-sama diperlakukan sebagai pembalap utama, opsi race memang banyak, tapi kesempatan jadi juara dunia berkurang.
2. Garis komunikasi antara pembalap dengan manajemen harus jelas. Jika ragu mengambil keputusan bagi pembalap utama, jangan takut untuk 'mengorbankan' pembalap kedua.
3. Jangan pernah melakukan kontak radio antara engineer, team principal, dan pembalap bersamaan.
4. Kembangkan kreatifitas kalau mobil sudah di atas trek, jangan terpaku pada analisa data.
5. Jangan terlalu banyak bersentuhan dengan minuman keras, kecuali seusai balapan. Pelajari data saat tidak sedang melakukan uji coba. Kenali rekan-rekan Anda di tim (mobil, mekanik, engineer). Koreksi diri dan pelajari gaya membalap.
6. Jaga kondisi tubuh agar tetap prima.
7. Jangan terlalu cepat mengeluh soal understeer. Berusahalah terlebih dahulu untuk meminimalkannya.
8. Bawa satu atau dua orang anggota keluarga saja, selain satu orang PR agency dan satu orang pelatih kebugaran, ke paddock. Paddock bukan tempat tamasya.
9. Jangan banyak bicara. Makin sedikit orang tahu tentang Anda, makin baik.
10. Perjuangkan setiap milidetik dan posisi semaksimal mungkin.

*lirik Kimi*

Kimi, kamu ga minum Koskenkorva sebelum latihan dan balapan, kan?

*kabur*

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Hmm.. Kalau kebosanan malah bikin Kimi jadi tampil ganas..

Bagaimana kalau kita bikin dia bosan saja, ya?

*kedip-kedip ke Felipe*

*kabur sebelum Kimi pundung*

Hihi.

*dilempar sepatu dari garasi-nya Kimi*

Weks. Kan baru rencana. Iya, kan, Felipe?

*disambit bakiak, sepatu, kacang, cangkir kopi, dll*

15 September 2007

10 tips menjadi seorang fans pembalap F1 ala Myu:
1. Jangan kecewa jika pembalap yang Anda dukung adalah pembalap nomor 2 di tim, atau berstatus sama dengan rekan satu tim-nya (sama-sama pembalap utama, red.). Setidaknya, dia kan nomor 1 di hati Anda.
2. (Usahakan) jangan hanya mendukung pembalap saja, tapi dukung juga timnya (termasuk sang rekan satu tim, kalau perlu). Karena tim bisa dibilang adalah keluarga sang pembalap.
3. Jangan memaksa pembalap untuk bersaing dengan rekan setimnya secara berlebihan. Apalagi kalau dia pembalap kedua, jangan 'memaksa' dia untuk 'mengalahkan' yang no.1. Persaingan antar pembalap, bahkan di dalam tim, memang wajar, tapi tim juga butuh poin dan kemenangan. Dan persaingan yang berlebihan akan sangat tidak menyenangkan. Jadi jangan berdoa mobil rekan setim pembalap kesayangan Anda jebol. Ingat, hal ini juga berlaku jika keduanya sama-sama pembalap utama, atau pembalap kesayangan Anda adalah yang no.1. Yang jelas, Anda masih boleh berdoa ia berada di depan pembalap lain..
4. Jika ia masuk podium, Anda boleh melakukan apapun sebagai bukti kegembiraan Anda. Tapi jika tidak, Anda tak boleh kecewa. Kalau ia dapat poin, bergembiralah. Jika ia finis tapi tak dapat poin, setidaknya Anda haru bersyukur. Karena untuk finis pertama, pertama-tama kita harus finis.
5. Apapun hasil yang didapatnya, jika ia finis, katakan pada diri sendiri: Ia telah melakukan sesuatu yang hebat (dan mungkin terbaik) hari ini. Tiap pembalap F1 sebenarnya adalah yang terbaik. Penghuni podium hanyalah yang terbaik dari yang terbaik pada saat itu.
6. Jika ia tidak finis, jangan kecewa dan terburu-buru menyalahkan baik pembalap, mobil, maupun tim-nya. Ingat, ada hal-hal yang tak terduga, dan tak bisa Anda hindari.
7. Jika Anda punya waktu dan biaya, dukung ia langsung dari pinggir lintasan. Walau ia tak tahu soal Anda, tapi kedatangan fans biasanya mendongkrak semangat pembalap. Jangan lupa membawa spanduk dan atribut pembalap/tim. Bertemu langsung memang meyenangkan, tapi jika Anda ingin bertemu langsung, dan gagal, jangan kecewa. Setidaknya Anda berhasil menyaksikan ia berlaga secara langsung di sirkuit.
8. Berpikir dewasa. Ingat, pembalap juga manusia bisa yang tak luput dari kesalahan. Jangan pernah berharap ia adalah manusia sempurna. Contohlah hal-hal yang baik darinya dan jangan mencontoh yang buruk. Ia juga punya privasi, jadi hargai privasinya.
9. Cintailah dia apa adanya. Sama seperti Anda mencintai suami/istri/pacar Anda. Cintai segala kelebihan dan kekurangannya, karena itulah dia.
10. Jangan cemburu jika Anda wanita dan pembalap kesayangan Anda ternyata sudah punya pacar, atau bahkan istri. Jangan terlibat terlalu jauh ke dalam kehidupan pribadi mereka (terutama urusan cinta). Mereka kan juga punya privasi dalam urusan cinta.

Tambahan: Untuk pria, jika kekasih Anda (yang notabene penggemar F1) tampaknya 'lebih menyukai' mobil dan pembalap F1 daripada Anda, jangan cemburu juga... Setidaknya kan Anda yang ada di dekatnya dan ia cintai secara langsung.. :P

*kabur sebelum disambit Ambu dan Ryorin*

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Hasil kualifikasi hari ini: Kimi, Felipe, Abang, Akang, Kubica, Rosberg, Heidfeld, Webber. Hayah. 4L, deh.

Abang entah kenapa sempat melintir di Q3. Untung aja masih sempet lepas dari gravel..

16 September 2007

Alasan resmi FIA dan WMSC memberikan sanksi pada McLaren-Mercedes sudah keluar. Baca di sini...

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Dari press-conference seusai kualifikasi...

Q: (Miran Alisic – POP TV) I have a question for the three of you regarding racing. We are having a situation where Ferrari have won the Constructors’ Championship actually and McLaren are out of the Constructors’ Championship. Is it going to affect your racing at all because you are now free of thinking of the Constructors’ Championship?
FM: No.
KR: No.
FA: No.

Weks. Kompak sekali..

*digetok Abang, Felipe, dan Kimi*

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Yak! 4 L! Kimi, Felipe, Abang Fernando, Akang Lewis, Nick, Rosberg, Webber, dan Heikki.

*ditimpuks se-podium*

Great job, Kimi and Felipe. You make me really proud! *hugs*

Btw, kenapa malah Chris Dyer yang dikerjain di atas podium sih..? Harusnya kan Kimi..

*kabuuuuuuuuuuuuur*

Dapat berita duka: Colin McRae, pembalap reli terkenal, meninggal dunia karena kecelakaan helikopter hari Sabtu kemarin...

Baru tahu sekarang, karena rupanya tim SAR baru menemukan jenazah McRae (dan anaknya, CMIIW) hari Minggu...

Fifth was Robert Kubica, but he changed his engine, and experienced a penalty of 10 grid places. Sixth on qualifying was Nico Rosberg, then Nick Heidfeld on seventh place, and Mark Webber on eighth. Fisichella who was qualified eleventh also experienced the same engine change like Kubica, so he dropped to the back of the grid.

And... The race began..

As the lamps went off, the drivers quickly started and tried to get better position or at least, maintain their pos. Kimi led ahead of Felipe, followed by Alonso and Hamilton, who was a little bit off-the-track on the first turn after fighting head-to-head with Alonso, but managed to get back on the track.

Lap 2, apparently Giancarlo Fisichella’s car had a problem and he had to retire.

Lap 3, Alex Wurz slipped a bit on the Bus Stop chicane. Mark Webber passed Heikki Kovalainen.

Lap 5, Heidfeld passed Kovalainen. He was seventh at the moment.

Lap 7, Kimi already 2,3 s ahead of Felipe. Kubica now ninth after passing Ralf Schumacher.

Lap 9, Sebastian Vettel became the second man to retire from the GP.

Lap 13, again, Kovalainen had to lose his position to other driver in a battle, and now the eighth place went to Kubica

Lap 15, Nico Rosberg, currently fifth, had a pit stop for 7,8 s. Mark Webber also pitted a few seconds after. Kimi also in for 9,3 s. Felipe was leading the race at the moment.

After that, Alonso also pitted, and rejoined behind Heidfeld.

Two laps after Kimi had a pit-stop, Felipe and Hamilton pitted on the same time. Hamilton rejoined behind Alonso. Heidfeld third, not yet to stop.

A few drivers missed the final corner (and a few other turns), including Lewis Hamilton. Kimi Raikkonen now led the race.

At the end of lap 18, Heidfeld pitted. Rejoined sixth, behind Kovalainen who tried to have a one-stop here.

And.. a few lap after that, the weather prediction came to us: No rain during the race. Hopefully.

It’s the middle stint, 24 laps to go, and now Kubica struggling, battling each other with Coulthard. He tried to get past DC, but failed. Kimi now over 4 s ahead of Felipe.

The race reached its middle point on lap 23, and Fernando Alonso was currently 11 s behind Felipe Massa. Heikki Kovalainen pitted (presumably his only pit).

DC was still battling with Kubica, and Barrichello made a mistake at a turn (didn’t remember which one, but seems like Turn 1)

16 laps to go, and Kimi already overlapped a few drivers. Sato was slightly quicker than Button at the time.

Sato get closer to Button and tried to get past him, but his try resulted in nothing.

14 laps remaining, and the race leader Kimi Raikkonen pitted for the second place. He rejoined ahead of Lewis Hamilton. Coulthard out of the race. Sato took over Button position.

One lap after, Felipe Massa pitted for 6,3 s and back on the track behind Hamilton. Alonso now led the race.

12 laps to go, and Alonso came to the pit lane for another pit. He was fourth after that pit.

10 laps to go. Heidfeld pitted from fifth place. Massa was driving a little bit too wide. Hamilton second, 2 s behind Kimi, not yet to make his second stop.

Lap 37, Alex Wurz retired. Probably because of a problem with the car.

Finally, Lewis Hamilton made his second stop, only 8 laps before the end of the race. Kubica attacked Kovalainen.

And.. Jenson Button also retired. So far, five men retired from the race.

2 laps remaining, and Lewis made a bit mistake. He went a bit off-the track. Thanks God he didn’t lose his position, but he lose 3 s to Alonso.

Finally, the race ended on lap 44. Kimi Raikkonen won the Belgian Grand Prix for the third time, followed by Felipe Massa, Fernando Alonso, Lewis Hamilton, Nick Heidfeld, Nico Rosberg, Mark Webber, and Heikki Kovalainen.

So, Lewis Hamilton still leads the Drivers’ Championship, only two points ahead of Fernando Alonso. Kimi third, Felipe fourth.

For the constructor title, Ferrari had secured the 2007 title after the McLaren penalty from WMSC and the great 1-2 result.

3 races remaining. Now, the drivers will fight for theirselves...

I’m looking forward to it!

Iseng nyari-nyari tentang cincin kawin, dan...

Err.. Cincin kawin ternyata ada sejarahnya loh! Dan ternyata kepercayaan orang dalam memakai cincin kawin itu macam-macam. Kalau di negara-negara Barat zaman sekarang, cincinnya dipakai di jari manis tangan kiri, karena dianggap dekat sama jantung. Kalau dulu, dipakai di tangan kanan. Ada juga yang dipakai di jari tengah.. ^^;

Terus, cincin tunangannya juga beda-beda lagi. Ada yang dipakai di tangan yang sama, di bawah cincin kawin, ada yang di tangan satunya (yang ga pake cincin kawin..).

Errr.. terus itu Abang Fernando ikut yang mana ya? *kabur*

Milih cincin kawin juga harus teliti...

Nah, terus, ada juga alasan: Kenapa cowok ada yang ga make cincinnya.. Dan haruskah pria memakai cincin kawinnya?

Euh, mending baca sendiri, atau saya bakal tergoda untuk menggoda seseorang... *lirik Kimi*

Hihi.

O ya, dan hati-hati juga kalau pakai cincin.. Jangan sampai sesuatu yang tidak menyenangkan terjadi pada Anda (atau setidaknya, jangan sampai bikin hati Anda jadi tak enak..)

Lupa bilang: Ryorin nanya, 'Jadi dd mau pakai cincinnya di mana?'

Bingung mau jawab gimana. Jari Myu kecil semua gini, takut susah cari ukurannya...

Pakai di jempol boleh ga ya? *wonders*

31 August 2007

Akhirnya~ Myu dapat majalah F1Racing bulan Agustus 2007!

Ada gambar-gambar para pembalap untuk membantu CLIC Sargent dan Alex Waters dalam proyek amal melawan kanker. Setiap pembalap menggambar rekan satu tim-nya, untuk dilelang.

Lucu-lucu~! Karena saya ga punya scanner, dan malas memindai di warnet (bayar bo!), saya harap Anda beruntung untuk punya majalahnya.. :P

.
.
.

Err.. Oke, saya berbaik hati memindainya untuk Anda. Jadi berterimakasihlah pada saya (dan tentunya F1 Racing yang bersedia berbagi serta ke-22 pembalap yang rela meluangkan waktunya untuk menjadi anak TK untuk beberapa saat.. :P *penulis dilempari sepatu dan helm*). :D

Ini dia: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7... (Saya kasih link-nya aja, males kalo gambarnya langsung.. :P)

Dan.. inilah penilaian dan komentar saya (berdasarkan selera seni saya, dan sengaja ditulis dalam bahasa Indonesia supaya ga ada satupun pembalap yang protes *disambit*):

Giancarlo Fisichella by Heikki Kovalainen: Sketsa wajah Fisico sampai leher, dengan kacamata hitam, topi, khas pria kosmopolitan Itali. Tak terlalu halus, tidak kaku juga. Hmm, bagaimana kalau 7.5/10?

Heikki Kovalainen by Giancarlo Fisichella: Spiky Heikki, eh? Tattoo-nya boleh juga. Apalagi yang bukan tulisan, yang bentuk bintang abstrak berwajah itu. Hmm.. 6/10.

Felipe Massa by Kimi Raikkonen: Kimi, bukan karena saya menyukai kamu kalau saya beri nilai bagus, oke? Felipe memang sangat menyukai sepakbola, dan ide untuk menggambarnya sedang mencetak gol.. Hmm.. Nice. Btw, mana kiper dan pemain bola lainnya, Kimppa? Penonton ada walau cuma kepalanya, masa... *Myu disambit sepatu ice hockey sebelum jadi terlalu cerewet dalam mengkritik* Oke, 8.5/10. Sekali lagi, bukan karena saya menyukai kamu, Kimster, tapi untuk ukuran 'sketsa', itu bagus. Dan, coretan di kiri bawah.. itu KR, ya? *ditimpuks karena pertanyaan terakhir amatlah ga penting*

Kimi Raikkonen by Felipe Massa: Felipe, cerdas sekali, nak. Kau tahu Kimi suka ice hockey, dan dia itu Ice Man... Jadi.. Ice (Hockey) Man on action? 8.5/10, Felipe. Good work, walau wajahnya kurang mirip -er- maksudku, kurang imut.. *ditakol* Btw, selera kamu dan Kimi dalam menggambar penonton sama.. Mirip telur atau bola yang diberi mata, hidung, dan mulut. Tapi lucu. :D

Fernando Alonso by Lewis Hamilton: Well.. Ga buruk juga. Lumayan mirip, walau ada sedikit kekurangan. err.. 6/10.

Lewis Hamilton by Fernando Alonso: Abang, apa itu maksudnya kata 'boy'? Dan ngomong-ngomong, mending Abang membalap daripada menggambar, walau gambarnya masih lumayan.. 6/10. Kayanya sih.. :P

Jenson Button by Rubens Barrichello: Sketsa Jenson dalam biduk Honda. Sensitif juga... Hmm. 7/10.

Rubens Barrichello by Jenson Button: Er.. Bagus juga. Tapi benarkah kamu tahu Rubens kangen sama Daddy Schuey? 8/10, sepertinya.

Nick Heidfeld by Robert Kubica: Tak begitu seimbang, tapi, well.. Not bad. Semua logo ada di gambar, dan marketing pasti senang. :P 6.5/10.

Robert Kubica by Nick Heidfeld: Abstrak sekali, Nick. Beberapa helai rambut dan hidung, eh? 5/10. Kalau tak ada keterangan bahwa itu Robert Kubica, saya jelas bingung itu gambar apa.. ^^;

Ralf Schumacher by Jarno Trulli: Garis-garis dan bulatan sebagai kepala.. Sederhana sekali. Btw, namanya Ralf, pakai huruf F, Jarno, bukan Ralph. ^^; 5/10, kurasa.

Jarno Trulli by Ralf Schumacher: OMGosh. Rambutnya itu gara-gara rambut Jarno memang agak panjang, atau karena hal lain? Uncle Ralf, nilai Anda 6/10.

David Coulthard by Mark Webber: Rahangnya di gambar malah lebih kekar daripada aslinya.. ^^; Well. 6/10.

Mark Webber by David Coulthard: Kanguru berkepala Mark? Klise banget, sih, David.. Tapi gaya gambarnya lumayan halus juga.. 7/10.

Nico Rosberg by Alex Wurz: Err.. Terlihat seperti Nicky Rosberg daripada Nico Rosberg. Maksudku, dia malah terlihat seperti wanita gila di sana.. Oh, well. 6/10.

Alex Wurz by Nico Rosberg: Aliran ekspresionis Jerman, rupanya. Sedikit kaku untuk saya, tapi well.. 7/10.

Vitantonio Liuzzi by Scott Speed: Hmm.. lehernya terlalu besar, Scott. Tapi lainnya ga terlalu buruk. Err.. Kacamata hitam, ya? 7/10.

Scott Speed by Vitantonio Liuzzi: Sedikit kaku, Tonio, walau lumayan mirip dengan Scott (sejujurnya, lebih mirip.. monyet *digetok*). Tampaknya kamu suka simetris.. ^^; Hmm.. Saya harus beri berapa? 6.5/10.

Christijan Albers by Adrian Sutil: Hmm, senada dengan F1Racing. Lebih mirip sketsa polisi... 6/10.

Adrian Sutil by Christijan Albers: Chris, ngomong-ngomong, apa arti kalimat di balon ya? Untuk gambar, cukup lucu dan menghibur. Sisi feminin Adrian, mungkin? 7/10.

Takuma Sato by Anthony Davidson: Sketsa wajah yang cukup bagus. Detilnya lumayan, kecuali mungkin sedikit hal. Rasanya Taku ga segemuk itu ya, wajahnya? Well, 7.5/10.

Anthony Davidson by Takuma Sato: Oke, kalau bukan karena Taku, saya ga akan tahu bahwa Ant memang dijuluki Little Ant karena badannya yang kecil kaya semut.. ^^; Hmm.. 10/10, Taku. Perfect. Tampaknya kamu memang pintar menggambar, dan saya rasa itu bukan hanya karena kamu orang Jepang.. ^^ Mungkin di luar balapan hobi menggambar sesuatu?

Oke, memang tidak semua bagus, tapi saya yakin, yang melihatnya pasti terhibur... CLIC Sargent dan Alex Waters pasti juga bahagia.

Btw, tahukah Anda berapa dana yang didapat dari melelang gambar-gambar itu? US$242.000. Lumayan kan?

PS: Menilai gambar yang bagus memang susah! Saya baru tahu ternyata Felipe dan Kimi punya bakat menggambar.. ^^;
PPS: Euh, bukan cuma Ryorin, tapi bahkan Kimi dan Felipe lebih pintar menggambar daripada saya.. T.T

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Baca interview mendalam dengan Felipe, dan menemukan ini..

"Oke, semua orang tahu ia cukup tertutup. Tak terbuka. Ngobrol seperlunya. Tapi ramah, tidak egois, tidak doyan main politik, tidak memikirkan diri sendiri. Sangat baik..."

Aih~! Felipe, terima kasih Anda telah mengatakan dengan jujur bagaimana saya sebenarnya...

*Myu digetok Felipe dan Kimi*

Euh... Tampaknya saya salah baca..

*ditimpuks*

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Dan, rupanya.. Damon Hill adalah pemberi inspirasi bagi Anthony Davidson...

1 September 2007

Malam-malam Ambu SMS, bilang kalau Ambu sedang bersih-bersih HP dan menemukan SMS Myu setahun yang lalu, tentang kasus Ryorin..

Tepat setahun. Setahun yang lalu itu, Myu pindah kontrakan, Myu bertengkar dengan Ryorin, dan.. Myu juga hampir kehilangan orang yang Myu cintai.

Walaupun sampai sekarang Ryorin masih di dekat Myu, dan saat itu Ibu (Ibunya Ryorin, red.) bilang, Ryorin baik-baik aja dan Myu ga perlu kuatir.. (dan hampir semua orang yang jadi tempat curhat saya saat itu mengatakan hal yang sama: 'Myu ga usah kuatir, semua pasti baik-baik aja...') Kalau Myu ingat apa yang terjadi saat itu, Myu ingin sekali nangis.. Karena kecelakaan itu membuat Myu sadar bahwa terkadang Myu masih terlalu egois, terlalu manja, dan juga membuat Myu sadar betapa berartinya seseorang bagi Myu...

Sudah setahun...

Ryorin, maafkan Myu kalau sebagai seorang pacar, seorang wanita, Myu masih terlalu egois, terlalu manja dan kekanak-kanakan dalam bersikap..

Love you so much. Don't give up on loving and teaching me everything, including how to be happy and how to face the harsh life.. Koishiteru, Ryorin.

2 September 2007

Well.. Membaca blog seseorang, dan saya bingung: untuk apa ya masalah internal diumbar keluar? Dan dari sudut pandang yang benar-benar salah.

Like what Flamey said, I (Chrissy) am just doing my work. Anything wrong with that?

Hh.. memang justru dia yang TIDAK MENGERTI perasaan orang lain..

6 September 2007

Hari ini, dunia kehilangan satu bintang besarnya. Luciano Pavarotti, penyanyi tenor Italia, meninggal dunia dalam usia 71 tahun setelah berjuang melawan kanker pankreas selama setahun...

Good bye, Mr. Pavarotti. You'll never be forgotten. May your soul be accepted by the Almighty..

7 September 2007

Hujan lagi...

Entah kenapa, udara hari ini rasanya enak banget, apalagi setelah hujan...

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Ga ada kerjaan, terus mampir ke blognya orang-orang..

Dan, saya menemukan ini di blognya Ambu:

"Myu, bagaimana kalau F1 dilaksanakan di India?"

"Apakah mobil-mobil-nya akan meliuk-liuk di sirkuit? Trus jalanannya akan penuh dengan tiang dan pilar...
*kabur*"

Euh... Saya tidak akan menulis komen dari orang paling kurang kerjaan di sana.. Dan saya tidak akan menulis ulang komen saya sendiri.. Malas! :P

Yang jelas: sirkuit akan memiliki banyak tikungan, mungkin chicane, jadi mobilnya bisa meliuk-liuk... Terus, melewati hutan yang banyak pepohonan, mungkin? Jadi ga perlu tiang-tiang untuk membuat suasana film India..

*ditimpuks*

*getok Ryorin*

Hehe, tapi saya sudah mendengar, eh, membaca ini dari F1Racing beberapa waktu yang lalu.. Harap maklum, F1 sudah jadi ajang promosi wisata dan menggaet devisa.. Ga heran kalau India pengen. Banyak negara lain yang juga pengen tuh, termasuk Singapura, yang kabarnya bakal menggelar balapan F1 malam hari untuk pertama kalinya tahun depan.. --;

Tapi mending di India, ah, daripada Singapura.. Ngapain coba balapan malem-malem? Beuh. Kurang kerjaan.

Ngomong-ngomong, kapan ya Bernie tertarik bikin gelaran F1 di Indonesia? Kita sih tertarik (dan Menpora pun tertarik!)...

Euh, tapi setidaknya semoga upaya menyelenggarakan GP2 sukses... Lumayan tuh.

Dan.. kembalikan A1 GP ke Indonesia!

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Habis itu, jalan-jalan ke websitenya Amy, mampir ke blognya (saya ga hafal link-nya, jadi ga saya kasih.. sori..:D), dan..

Ternyata dia sudah beli gaun pengantin! Cantik banget..

Euh, tapi Aunt Amy ga bilang kapan mau menikah sama Uncle Brandon.. *pouts*

For those who wonders why I call her 'Aunt Amy'.. That's because in the TPS Family, she is one of LuCinda's daughters, and I'm LuCinda's grand-daughter from Elf, so.. she's my aunt.. *runs away from Amy*

Anyway, tell us when will you get in front of the altar, Amy.. ^^

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Terakhir.. Myu pengen banget getok kepala orang hari ini...

Sebenernya ada foto buktinya, tapi lupa nge-save.. ^^;;

Yah, Kimi, siapa suruh telat datang ke press conference hari Kamis sampai kena denda 5000 dolar? *getok Kimi pake palu seberat 5000 ton*

Lain kali dari Swiss ke Italia, daripada dihitung satu jam (tapi malah telat), dihitung 2 jam saja nak.. Biar ga telat, gitu. Dan jaga-jaga... Siapa tahu ada kemacetan dan lain sebagainya (termasuk jaga-jaga kalau kamu ketiduran :P).. *kabur*

8 September 2007

Ga jadi ke IP, malah nge-net, mampir ke Website-nya Formula 1.. Dan dapat berita ini..

Habis itu, mampir ke forum, dan dikasih videonya.. Mending lihat sendiri deh. Jadi ngeri sendiri saya kalau disuruh nyeritain..

Oh, well. Mobilnya cuma ga karuan aja bagian depannya (termasuk ban). Mesinnya ga-pa-pa, apalagi pembalapnya. Dia mah katanya keluar dari mobil yang 'tertimbun ban' dengan kalem, tanpa cedera sedikitpun... Kecuali leher yang sakit.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Our Schumi is there...! Daddy Schuey is there!! Ya-hoo! Also, Luca di Montezimolo is there... Our boss! Waha!

Dan, hasil kualifikasi hari ini: Abang, Akang, Felipe, Nick, Kimi, Kubica, Kovalainen, Rosberg, Trulli, Button.

Go Felipe~!

Euh, Kimi? Peduli amat. Salah sendiri, bikin susah saya saja dalam beberapa hari ini... *pouts* Denda 5000 dolar karena telat, apa itu maksudnya coba? *getok*

Oh, well. Good luck, Kimster. :D

Aih, kenapa jadi begini~ *pundung sama Daddy*

Er.. Setidaknya bukan 4L..

6L juga bukan ya?

*kabur secepat mungkin*

9 September 2007

Hasil balapan hari ini: Abang, Akang, Kimi, Nick, Kubica, Rosberg, Kovalainen, Jenson.

Felipe entah kenapa bermasalah dengan gearboxnya.. T.T

Daddy~! Something has gone wrong. Really wrong.

Oh, well. At least Kimi finished, right?

*masih pundung*

Kimster, awas aja kalau kamu dan Felipe bikin saya kecewa di Spa minggu depan.. --;

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Euh, kok bisa ya, musim ini trend-nya tuan rumah atau raja sirkuit dilarang menang.. Dulu, waktu di Amerika, yang menang McLaren di saat seharusnya Indianapolis jadi punyanya Ferrari. Terus, waktu di Spanyol, rumahnya Abang, yang menang malah Felipe. Di Inggris, yang harusnya jadi home race-nya Akang dan McLaren, yang menang malah Kimi dengan Ferrari-nya.. Nah ini, di sirkuitnya Ferrari, yang menang malah duo McLaren.. Euh.

Jangan bilang balapan di Brazil nanti Felipe, atau setidaknya, Ferrari, ga menang. Myu bejek-bejek si Bernie nanti! *loh?*

Untung ga ada GP Finlandia... Kalau ga, saya ga tau harus ngomong apa.. *kabur*

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Dan, ngomong-ngomong, inilah bukti baru skandal spionase paling memalukan tahun ini: e-mail Abang Fernando ke sesama pembalap Spanyol tentang dokumen Ferrari, salah satunya kepada Pedro de la Rosa.

Hmm.. rupanya Abang masih takut sama hukuman FIA (bisa denda, bisa yang lain) yang katanya, lumayan mengerikan juga...

Kamis besok, ‘sidang’ akan dilaksanakan di Paris.. Well, let’s see.

*Indonesian mode OFF*

FORMULA 1 – ITALIAN GRAND PRIX – MONZA – REPORT

Ciao! Welcome to Monza, Italy. Yesterday, Ferrari’s driver Kimi Raikkonen experienced a horrible crash at Ascari chicane. His car was moving on a high speed (about more than 230 mil/hour, as far as I remembered), crashing to the wall, and move again to a tire wall, crashed into it. Apparently, Kimi was alright, coming out from the car with no wounds. His engine was OK, and well, yeah, it’s just his broken car...

So he was using the T-car on qualifying.. Today, he would start the race from fifth place, while teammate Felipe Massa would start from third place. Nick Hedifeld started fourth, and to Ferrari dismay, McLaren’s Fernando Alonso secured the pole, with his teammate Lewis Hamilton second. Sixth was Robert Kubica, then Kovalainen on seventh grid, Rosberg on eighth grid, Trulli on ninth, and Button tenth.

As usual, the circuit is crowded with tifosi, and... Well, here we go!

As the light go out, err.. I got dizzy. There was crowd. In the front rows and back rows. Alonso led, but Lewis was struggling, defending himself from Felipe who was trying to get past him all the time. Kimi was fourth after passed Nick. Coulthard was out after a crash. First Monza’s victim of the day. Yellow flag is out, Safety Car is deployed.

Nothing special when the Safety Car was still out...

At the end of lap 6, the Safety Car was in to the pitlane. As the race restarted, Alonso still led the race, Lewis second, Felipe third, Kimi fourth, Nick fifth, and Kubica sixth.

Lap 10, Felipe was pitted for 11,4 s, and he dropped to 21st. It seemed that he has problem with his car’s gearbox or other else as he was moving very slowly.

And, well. Lap 11, Felipe retired, leaving Kimi alone on the track to fight for Ferrari. Gah. --;

Lap 13, Button passed Rosberg, while Sato and Yamamoto were wheel-to-wheel against each other. Kimi was more than 7-8 s behind Alonso.

Lap 18, Alex Wurz was under pressure by Ant. One lap after, Lewis was in for a pit. 8,3 s and he dropped to sixth. Alonso still led the race.

Lap 20, Alonso was in for 9,1 s. More fuel for him. Kimi led the race for the moment. Button and Rosberg was still battling each other, but now, Rosberg won. After that, Nick was pitted.

Lap 25, Kimi was still leading. Alonso second, 19 s behind Kimi, and Hamilton third. Finally, Kimi entered the pit for a stop. Probably his one and only stop for the day. 10,9 s, with hard tires. He was third at the time.

20 laps remaining, Button and Fisichella was in for a pitstop. Alonso was still leading in front of Hamilton, 18 s ahead of Kimi.

18 laps to go, and to my own dismay (and maybe Ferrari’s too..), Kimi was 26 s behind the race leader.. Oh my gosh..

14 laps remaining. Heidfeld came in to the pit from fourth place. Soon after it, Lewis Hamilton pitted. He rejoined behind Kimi, who was second at that time.

11 laps to go, Lewis took the second place from Kimi. Ack! *kicks Kimi*

Okay, at least you finished, Kimster..

10 laps to go, and Alonso was pitted. He was still leading in front of Lewis and Kimi.

Actually, I was a bit bored and lost interest to this race.. Something has gone wrong... But I have to support Ferrari and Kimi.. T.T

Finally, the race ended. Fernando Alonso won the Italian Grand Prix, to all the Ferrari crew and tifosi’s dismay. Second was Lewis Hamilton, while Ferrari’s remaining soul Kimi Raikkonen was third. Fourth was Nick Heidfeld, fifth was Robert Kubica, sixth was Nico Rosberg, and seventh was Heikki Kovalainen. The last point of the day goes to Jenson Button.

So, McLaren increased their championship gap with Ferrari. Lewis Hamilton is still leading the drivers’ championship, while Fernando Alonso is still second, and Kimi Raikkonen goes up to the third place.

Next race, we will go to Spa-Franchorchamps, the best and most complete circuit, according to some drivers (and ex-drivers, including Kimi, Felipe, and Schumi) and me. *g* I’ll be waiting there. See you.

Oh, and watch out for a homework down there.. *evil grin*

ANOTHER VIEW OF MYU-CHAN

7 August 2007

Rasanya baru kemarin Ryorin bilang ke Myu, kalau Myu itu terlalu banyak pikiran, terlalu khawatir akan sesuatu...

Dan memang, baru kemarin. Baru kemarin juga dia bilang, ‘Percaya aja kalau semuanya bakal baik-baik aja.’

Well, Ryorin benar. Sayangnya, dalam keadaan seperti ini, Myu ga bisa berhenti khawatir... Myu bahkan ga tau gimana caranya untuk percaya semuanya bakal baik-baik aja...

Myu ga tau lagi sampai kapan Myu harus merahasiakan perasaan Myu selama ini. Mencoba bersikap seolah ga ada apa-apa di depan semua orang. Padahal, tiap saat Myu ingin nangis, ingin lari...

Dan sekarang Myu capek. Mencoba untuk terus berlari bikin Myu capek. Apalagi, orang-orang pergi entah kemana. Secara fisik mungkin memang ada, tapi ga secara batin, dan keberadaan mereka malah makin membuat saya kesepian.

They’re not here when I need them...

Ya, mereka ga ada waktu saya butuh mereka. Saya tahu, mereka bingung saat saya jarang terlihat oleh mereka, tapi di mana mereka waktu saya butuh pertolongan?

Myu sudah cukup tertekan dengan tuntutan Papa soal kuliah. Harus ada nilai A. Selalu begitu. Tiap kali ada yang dapat nilai D atau E, pasti dicerca. Ga peduli dia yang tahu sendiri, atau Myu yang bilang. Dia ga pernah peduli gimana perasaan Myu... Ga pernah mau ngerti gimana Myu udah usaha...

Myu bosan. Myu sudah ga tahan lagi. Kalau boleh memilih, Myu lebih baik berhenti kuliah daripada terus-terusan seperti ini... Sekalipun Myu masih mencintai tempat kuliah Myu, Myu sekarang pengen banget berhenti...

For someone out there: I know you wouldn’t read this, but thank you so much for everything. For being such a great friend, for making me smile everyday, brighten my days when we’re still in the same classes and labs... For keeping me there all these time... For every laugh we shared together... Really, I thank you for everything. And yes, there is something I need to confess: I love you, so much.

For Ryorin: Teach me how to believe that everything will be alright... Teach me how to feel happy, and how... to pursue my own happiness... Please...

Geez.. Lord, forgive me for all the sins that I have done...

9 August 2007

Seorang teman baru-baru ini mengirim PM pada saya, mengucapkan terima kasih karena, katanya, saya begitu baik dan bersahabat dengan orang-orang baru di TPS...

Entah kenapa, PM itu membuat saya sedikit bahagia... Bukan karena isinya, karena di sana, saya memang baik pada siapapun( ga nyombong~! :P), tapi karena judulnya yang lucu dan sedikit berbau nonsense...

So, Daniel, thanks for brightening my day... Take a muffin, please... :)

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Semalam ada gempa, dan Ambu nge-sms, nanyain, ‘Myu, kerasa ada gempa ga? Gede dan lama...’

Myu jawab aja terus terang kalau Myu lagi di kereta, dan kerasa ada gempa, tapi kecil (menurut saya).

Lucunya, setelah saya balas SMS Ambu, saya nge-SMS Ryorin, terus Ryorin nge-SMS Ambu (dan balas SMS saya tentunya), dan jadilah saya-Ryorin-Ambu saling ber-SMS ria...

Dan soal gempa, beneran, buat saya, gempanya ga gitu kerasa. Cuma heran, kok keretanya jalan pelan, terus ada yang goyang. Setelah orang-orang bilang, ‘ada gempa,’ baru deh saya nyadar, tapi tetap dengan wajah polos-dan-tak-tahu-apa-apa... Lagipula, jarak tempat saya berada pada jam itu dengan pusat gempa lumayan jauh... Jadi harap dimengerti kalau saya ga nyadar itu gempa...

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Sampai sekarang, Myu masih bingung apa arti kebahagiaan untuk Myu... Tapi yang jelas, Myu baru saja sadar tentang satu hal: kebahagiaan Myu ga didapat dari gelar akademik ataupun kekayaan materiil... Tapi ketenangan batin...

Dan... Berada bersama orang yang Myu cintai..

Ternyata... Berita soal kostum gorila-nya Kimi itu bener...

Jadi, ternyata dia balapan motorboat sama teman-temannya pakai kostum gorila.. Ampun deh. *getok Kimi*

Btw, untung Kimi belum mau punya anak sebelum bisa jadi ayah yang baik... Ga kebayang deh kalau dia punya anak sekarang.. Kasihan Jenni-nya. *lol*

11 August 2007

Ryorin bilang, kalau punya anak mau dinamain Subaru ama Ginga...

Err, boleh usul beberapa nama lagi? (Maria-)Mercedes dan Enzo...

*kabur sebelum diapa-apain*

13 August 2007

Baca berita ini...

Tanggal 24-25 November nanti, Daddy Schuey bakal ikut balapan amal bertajuk International Go-Kart Champs di Florianapolis, Brazil. Kata Felipe (yang kebetulan jadi panitia, hihi ^^), pembalap terkenal lain juga mau ikutan, tapi ga disebutin siapa aja... *getok Felipe* Tapi kayanya Barrichello, Luca Badoer, Nelson Piquet Jr, ama Liuzzi bakal ikut juga..

Anyway, Felipe, will Alonso, Kimi, and Lewis join the charity program?

16 August 2007

Entah kenapa hari ini Myu sensi banget ama Ryorin. Pengennya maraaaaah terus..

Padahal kemarin baru kangen, ketemu bawaannya pengen ngomel aja... Jadi Manda ama Talitha deh yang kena.. Huhu, sori yah...

Kata Ryorin sih, ini gara-gara Myu kangen.... Hihi. Habisnya pas lagi bener-bener rindu malah dicuekin... Kebiasaan~!

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Trus, tadi sore pas pulang dari warnet, ngeliat benda berasap jatuh dari langit.. (Yah, gitu deh...) Kaya pesawat gitu, tapi ga yakin. Asapnya warna oranye, dan di atasnya ada bulan sabit (aseli, ga palsu! Maksud Myu, bulannya itu bulan beneran). Hmm.. Apa ya itu?

Dan, di saat bersamaan, langitnya bagus warnanya, tapi di kejauhan awannya tebal dan rendah... (walau soal rendah-tingginya Myu ga yakin..)

22 August 2007

Akhir-akhir ini kok Myu susah sekali tidur ya...? Kadang juga kalau bisa tidur, suka bangun-bangun terus.

Dan kemarin Myu diprotes Ryorin gara-gara menyimpan sendok dalam kotak es krim..

Euh.. Habisnya semalam sebelumnya, Myu tiba-tiba bangun jam 3 pagi. Laper. Tapi ga ada makanan. Mau rebus telur atau mi, males. Akhirnya buka freezer, ambil es krim, dan makan di kamar. Walhasil, bedcover sama selimut Myu jadi dingin dan basah...

Nah, terus habis makan, Myu kembaliin lagi kotaknya ke freezer, dengan sendok masih di dalamnya. Yah, besoknya, begitu Ryorin ambil es krim, dia kaget ngeliat sendok yang udah jadi dingiiiiiiiiiiiin banget...

Hihi.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

‘Satu liter... ‘Tuk sepuluh liter... Air bersih.. Untuk masa depan...’

Harusnya sekarang kalian sudah familiar dengan jingle iklan AQUA Danone itu kan? Apalagi udah ada iklannya yang baru.

Yah, seperti yang tertera di label botolnya... ternyata AQUA bekerja sama dengan penduduk setempat (untuk yang sekarang, NTT. *CMIIW*) untuk menyediakan air bersih di beberapa daerah di Indonesia.

Dan.. Satu liter yang kita beli sama artinya dengan ‘menyumbang’ 10 liter air bersih untuk mereka..

Hmm~ Myu sih mikirnya, AQUA bakal bikin satu tempat atau menyediakan alat untuk pemurnian air di daerah-daerah itu...

Kira-kira bisa berjalan dengan lancar ga ya? Duh.. Semoga aja. Soalnya sekarang di mana-mana krisis air bersih...

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Akhirnya~ Myu menemukan Kalevala dalam bahasa Inggris! di sini

Klik sini kalau mau versi aslinya...

Sebenarnya ini buat mendalami karakter RPG punya Myu (Aurora Mielonen, red.) di sini... Cuman, entah kenapa jadi tertarik banget...

Kalau belum tahu, Kalevala itu kumpulan syair epik nasional Finlandia.... Ada lima puluh bab alias runo, dan tiap runo merupakan sebuah syair yang terdiri atas beberapa bait. Jangan dipikir syairnya pendek ya.. Panjaaaaang banget dan satu syair itu menceritakan *kira-kira* satu peristiwa. :P

Ceritanya? Mulai dari penciptaan dunia, manusia pertama (Väinämöinen), sampai cerita tentang Marjatta yang hamil karena makan buah beri (tepatnya lingonberry. Btw, marja itu bahasa Finlandia untuk buah beri.) dan melahirkan anak yang jadi raja Karelia (dan Väinämöinen pergi).

Singkatnya, ini mitologi, sejarah ‘dunia’ versi Finlandia... ^^

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Baca ini deh...

Ternyata...

23 August 2007

Hari ini ada yang bikin Myu sebel setengah mati di HPI. Bukan cuma Myu sih...

Abis.. Udah dikasih tau baik-baik malah tetep aja nantang. Disuruh behave, nantang juga. Padahal behave itu ga susah kan? Bersikap baik itu kan gampang...

Udah gitu, sok pintar pula. Gayanya ‘berusaha mendamaikan’.. dan, kesalahan paling buruk adalah: memanggil saya kk Princess! Ga sopan dan aneh. Beuh.

Trus, Ambu dipanggil mbak Ambu? Lah, sama aja anehnya. --;; Kaya manggil Gus Dur dengan sebutan ‘Pak Gus Dur’...

Heran, orang kaya dia kok masuk Ravenclaw. Pintar dari mana? Dari Hongkong?

Dan.. dia mau jadi Prefek? Ravenclaw bisa ancur tuh.. *niruin gaya iklan* APA KATA DUNIA??? (Eh, sebenarnya, apa kata eyang Rowena dan om Shaven.. *kabur*)

Apalagi dia udah masuk daftar user bermasalah.. OMG..

Berikut ini komentar beberapa orang selain saya *ditimpuks*:

Manda:
“padahal umurnya 19 tahun lho... tapi lucu aja kayak anak kecil...”
“yaa... lama2 juga kalo makin ngelunjak bakalan dibanned”
“yaaa hebatnya dia tuh gak ngalah2 aja...”
“hohoho... kalo diliat emang dia tuh penyebab utama kehancuran user2 ravenclaw”

Ryorin:
“kalo ga diperangi ga berenti2 tu org.”
“orang kaya dia jadi prefek? embah Rowena dan embah Shaven bangkit dari pembaringan =))” (Myu: “...dan geleng-geleng kepala...”)

*penulis kabur dari om Shaven karena sudah menulis kata-kata ‘embah Shaven’ yang terlarang, walau cuma kutipan*

*penulis disambit sama sandal jepit dan bakiak karena ngasal*

Lanjut...

Abay:
“Ya udah klo kita ngeladenin juga bakalan bikin kesel ke kitanya”
“anggap aja dia penerus si PC :p” (Myu ‘n Manda: PC lebih baik!)

Tika:
“peri rumah lebih cocok jadi prefek dari pada dia :P” (Manda: “betul!”)

Ambu:
“...tujuan suamimu kan for the greater good, bukan cari musuh.”

Wikikik. Buat yang kata-katanya dikutip di sini, mohon maaf~

*kabur*

25 August 2007

Sebenarnya ini udah agak lama sih.. Tapi, baru ingat sekarang.

Apa yang terjadi kalau Christian Horner dari Red Bull ditanya mengenai apa hal terbaik dan apa yang paling mengganggu selama jadi team principal?

Jawabannya adalah:

Q: Best part of being a team principal?
Christian Horner: Team principal meetings with Bernie!

Q: The most annoying?
CH: Team principal meetings with Bernie!

(Wawancara lengkap klik saja ini)

So, Christian, are you going to tell us that meeting with Bernie is the best part being a team principal, while also annoying at the same time? *giggles*

Setelah baca ini, saya ga mau jadi team principal kalau harus ketemu si tua Bernie Ecclestone waktu rapat. Bikin jengkel dan bosan! *kabur*

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Barusan lihat iklan baru Bridgestone... Dan tebaklah siapa bintang iklannya...

Obviously, it’s none other than the Ferrari boys, Kimi and Felipe..

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Dan, hasil kualifikasi hari ini: Felipe, Akang, Kimi, Abang, Kubica, Nick, Kovalainen, Rosberg. Di belakang mereka ada Trulli dan Fisico.

Lagi-lagi merah-perak. Ampun deh, mereka kok ga bosan start di dekat orang yang *hampir* sama yah?

*Kimi dan Akang melirik ke arah Myu*
*Myu ditendang Abang dan Felipe*

Weks. Salah sendiri, 4L mulu. Loe Lagi, Loe Lagi.. (Thanks to Ambu! :P)

Err.. *kabur sejauh mungkin sebelum ditendang lagi*

26 August 2007

Barusan baca ini, ternyata Pasar Buku Palasari terbakar...

Euh... T.T Kalau emang disengaja, kok segitunya sih...

Tapi, kata Ambu masih banyak toko yang ga kebakar dan sekarang udah mulai buka..

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Q: (Spyros Pettas - Auto Motor und Sport Greece) The World Motor Sport Council decided that McLaren had Ferrari technical information and broke Article 151c, but were not penalized. Then came Hungary where McLaren and Fernando Alonso were severely penalized because he just stood in the pits for 30 seconds for whatever reason. Is this type of justice flattering to the sport and the F1 fans?
FM: I am not going to comment on that.
LH: And neither am I.
KR: The same.

(from http://www.formula1.com/news/headlines/2007/8/6670.html)

Weks.. Intinya, semuanya ‘no comment’... Saya juga lama-lama no comment. Capek ngomongin begituan...

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Ryorin ngambek, soalnya pas pesta pernikahan saudaranya, disuruh pakai beskap. Dan itu sudah dipakai dari jam 15.30... Panas, katanya. Mana saya, Savo, dan Mia malah cekikikan... (Dan konyolnya, dia juga ngambek-ngambek ke Ambu..)

Wikikik, kasihan banget.. Tapi kan pakai kebaya juga sama-aja. Malah kalau pakai sanggul (apalagi yang dipasang, bukan pake rambut sendiri) dobel panas... Er.. Pakai kerudung yang dibikin cantik juga bikin gerah, kok... T.T Belum riasannya.. T.T

Tapi, masih sempet iseng juga yah, Ryorin?

*kopi-pes dari blognya Ambu*

'...Karena (pastinya) ga ada kerjaan, dia sempet-sempetnya memperhatikan keris yang dia pakai, dan ada doe di gagangnya! Ada 3 malah, dia bilang ada doe 3, hog 1, gajah 1, wolf 1, lioness 1…'

Tetep aja ini orang kurang kerjaan… *getok*

O ya, pake beskap dari jam setengah empat sore sampai kira-kira jam delapan malam (lebih, kalo ga salah)… Hitung-hitung latihan, biar tar pas nikah ga kaget… :P

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Lalu, hasil perang *disambit*, eh, balapan hari ini: Felipe, Kimi, Abang, Nick, Akang, Kovalainen, Rosberg, Kubica.

Akang kasihan euy. Bannya tiba-tiba mengelupas, kaya sobek-sobek gitu. Untung aja masih sampai ke pit dan cepat diganti. *tepuk-tepuk pundak Akang*

Anyway, great job Felipe and Kimi. Keep up the good work! *hugs*

Ngomong-ngomong, Felipe ternyata lebih pendek dari Kimi dan Abang ya? *ditimpuks*

O ya, dan itu siapa yang di podium? Saya belum kenal atau -err- lupa namanya yah? *digetok*

*kabur ke Timbuktu*

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

EDIT-TO-ADD: Entah kenapa tiap kali saya aplot sesuatu ke esnips itu selalu harus gagal dulu sebelum berhasil. Dan bukan cuma sekali, tapi berkali-kali.. Aargh!

Sensi sama saya atau gimana yah?

FORMULA ONE - TURKISH GRAND PRIX 2007 –ISTANBUL - REPORT

Hello and welcome to Istanbul Park. Today, Ferrari’s Felipe Massa would start the race from the pole, followed by Lewis Hamilton, Kimi Raikkonen, and Fernando Alonso. Robert Kubica was fifth at the grid, alongside his team mate Nick Heidfeld who was sixth. On fourth row, there were Heikki Kovalainen and Nico Rosberg, followed by Jarno Trulli and Giancarlo Fisichella on fifth row.

Meanwhile, Honda’s Jenson Button and Rubens Barrichello had to start from the back grid because of an engine change.

Now, get ready.. and.. Go!

Felipe Massa led the race as the lamps went off. Lewis Hamilton tried to keep up with his second position, but failed, and Kimi Raikkonen became second. Lewis was third. Robert Kubica and Nick Heidfeld brilliantly took the fourth place from Fernando Alonso.

Lap3, Alonso was close to spin off as he lost control at Turn 2.

Lap 10, Webber had to retired after making a mistake in a turn while he tried to get pass his own team mate. Meanwhile, Felipe was still leading. Lewis was 2,5 s behind Kimi. Alonso was sixth.

Lap 12, Alonso failed when he tried to get past Nick Heidfeld as Nick made a little mistake and gone wide.

Lap 13, Trulli seemed to lost the control of his car, and lost some position. Robert Kubica pitted.

Lap 18, Nico Rosberg and Nick Heidfeld pitted. Soon after that, Kimi Raikkonen pitted. Alonso pitted as well.

About one lap after that, the race leader Felipe Massa came in. For a moment, Lewis Hamilton led the race.

Lap 20, Heikki Kovalainen became the race leader after Lewis Hamilton pitted. However, Kovalainen should pitted after only enjoying being a race leader for one lap.

Lap 24, Alonso was 18 s behind Felipe, which means he was also 14 s behind Hamilton. Sutil pitted.

Anyway, it’s said that the weather is about 49 degrees C at that time..

Lap 27, Anthony Davidson pitted. Felipe increased his gap with other drivers.

28 laps to go, Ralf Schumacher was struggling behind David Coulthard. Two laps after, Ralf pitted.

By lap 34, Ferrari was still faster than McLaren. From the fastest speed qualification at that very time, Felipe Massa was the fastest, followed by Kimi Raikkonen, Lewis Hamilton, and then Fernando Alonso.

22 laps remaining, and Jenson Button had to have a pit-stop. Robert Kubica was seventh. So far, no fatal accident happened, no yellow flag, no Safety Car. Only one car retired.

Lap 37, Kimi decreased his gap with Felipe to around 0,7 s because he had a traffic. Robert Kubica pitted for about 8,1 s and rejoined tenth.

19 laps to go, and Ferrari’s crew was getting ready for any of their drivers.

Finally, Kimi Raikkonen pitted 18 laps before finish. Harder tires, and he rejoined -er- second. Nick Heidfeld pitted as well. Felipe was still leading.

Just a few seconds after, Felipe pitted as well from the lead. He was still leading, however.

16 laps to go, and suddenly Lewis Hamilton should experienced a problem with his front-right tire. I don’t know what exactly happen, but his tire was, well, how do you say, err, ripped and peeled off. Well, maybe overheated? Thanks God, he was still could make his way to the pit lane. Alonso pitted right before him and rejoined third.

7 laps remaining, and currently, Felipe was still leading. Followed by Kimi, Alonso, and Nick at fourth place. Hamilton was fifth after that totally sudden accident.

And, finally… Felipe Massa won the Turkish Grand Prix for the second time in a row, followed by his team mate, Kimi Raikkonen, and McLaren’s Fernando Alonso. Nick Heidfeld fourth, while Lewis Hamilton should be happy with fifth place. Sixth was Heikki Kovalainen, seventh.. Nico Rosberg. And, the last point earner today was Robert Kubica, finished eighth.

So, current driver standings: Lewis Hamilton still lead with 84 points, Fernando Alonso second with 79 points, Felipe Massa retake the third place from his team mate with 69 points, while Kimi Raikkonen is currently fourth with 68 points.

McLaren (148 pts) now is 11 points ahead of Ferrari (137 pts). Five races to go… The war between McLaren and Ferrari is going to be tighter, while other teams already preparing for 2008.

I’m looking forward to the next race…

10 BESTFRIEND...

Okay, this is a homework from Talitha Pedersen...

Actually, I can’t really determine how to put my best friends in order, because it is really hard to determine who should be in the certain number. So this is not in order from the closest one to the furthest one (except the first two -or three-, I think. :P) Oh, well..

1. Aryo Budi Pratomo aka Aryo aka Ryo aka Ryorin
Well.. It’s so obvious, isn’t it? Despite his habit to pout and moan in front of me (which always resulted in the same thing: I got *really* mad), he is still my only one, and only love. At least, for now. Sometimes we fight just because of my childish act, my possessive behaviour, his ignorant behaviour, his habit to fall asleep just within seconds, or even a little misunderstanding between the two of us. But, hey, he is still kind and loving to me, both as a friend, and a lover... ^^;

2. Jacklin Sinthia aka Jacklin aka Lin (it’s her request to shorten her name...)
She’s my sworn-little-sister (and friend, of course), though we have never met in person until now. Silent and shy, she is the one who often talk with me about guys and of course, V6 (since we are V6 fans… :P). Even though it’s me who usually give her ‘advice’, she is usually there when I want to complaint about Ryorin. And she was the person in the first place who knew that Ryorin asked me to be his girl (and she was happy back then because her o-nee-chan had a boyfriend..). Just for a side-note, she is 10 month younger than me...

3. Fadhony Anggo Aryuniawan aka Fadhony aka Dony aka Yuni (Err.. who calls him Yuni, anyway..? *wonders* It’s not me! Really!)
Okay, this is a long-lost sworn-brother of mine. Long-lost? Because I haven’t heard any of his news recently.. And he did not reply my lovely birthday message at FS! *pouts* :P Even he hadn’t tell me whether if he got a new sister-in-law to-be for me... or not. *the writer’s kicked*

Well, he is a ‘brother’, friend, caretaker (when we’re on the same class at high school.. :P Admit that, silly!), and sometimes, enemy. Even if I refer to him as my ‘brother’, we almost never talk each other in ‘peace’. Yeah, almost never, since the conversation is often ended up with animal language(s)... And he has a bad habit of scolding me every Tuesday morning, especially when I came to school late (only 1 minute late!)…

But he is handsome (he is a kind of bishounen, actually.. ^^;) and kind-hearted (okay, I admit it!). Oh, and even though he is smart, he is also crazy! Ask him to play (even though he is studying), and he’ll join you in no time.. :P

One more thing, he really loves to tease *beautiful* girls...

Don’t be angry, o-nii-chan.. That’s the truth... *runs away*

4. Keni Vidilaseris aka Keni aka Kentje aka Ken-ken
Err.. I don’t know what to tell you about him except he is a bit cute (especially when everyone teases him about girls – his weakness) and *very* smart.. ^^;; We were very close as friends at class and Biochemistry’s lab, so sometimes we became victims of another people who said we better paired up as a couple. Guess what? Better not to tell you.

Erm. Where’s my tea, anyway? No sugar, please.

5. Istiqomah aka Isty
My elder sworn-sister (and yeah, friend.). Calm, girly, and gentle, along with onii-chan, she was the caretaker of me. We always sit in front of the same table when we were on the same class, went everywhere together (not includes going to the bathroom. :P) until our class is separated.

Ooh~ And she loves telenovela so much! Even we shared the same fondness of Dulce Maria...

6. Iman Nurchaedi aka Iman
This is the class’ victim at my class. Well, since he is too kind and always willing to do anything... If we need a class leader, Iman. If we should find a class room, that would be his duty. If we.. *insert whatever here* --- Imaaan~!! For a personal thought, he is the only person in my class who always call me with the nick ‘Myu-chan’.

7. Siti Ristiana aka Risty
She was my first close-friend at the elementary school, and, even though I don’t know where she is right now, I still consider her one of my best friends. When we were at school together, we loved going to the small shop just behind the school building, near the school keeper’s house, during class break. Sometimes, we also played traditional games in the middle of the hall with other students. I don’t remember anything more about her, except that she was very friendly back then, and she was excel at dancing...

8. Djuwita Permata Sari aka Djuwita aka Ita
I don’t really remember where we met for the first time. The thing that I remember is we were friends during high school. Our houses are only separated a few blocks, and it takes only about 10-15 minutes to get to her house. Well, she is diligent, smart, and have some sense of humor. Anyway, she was one of the people who often teased me about boys back then. And yeah, it was the only thing I hate. :P

9. Sitin Mariani aka Sitin aka Mbak Tin
Well, even though she was only a nursemaid for me since I was only three years old until I was at junior high school, she was far more than that. Her calm and motherly demeanour made her sometimes acted like my own mother when Mum was not at home. She was also a great friend for me, someone who always accompany me playing in the backyard (and sometimes resulting in visiting the neighbour’s house, since I *really* loved to climb the wall), though sometimes she would also pouts and said if she was going to go back to her village when I refuse to eat...

If you ask something I hate about her, it was her self-made tonic. It main ingredient is bratawali, a kind of herbs that tasted very bitter, and supposed to increase someone’s appetite. Sadly, she often gave me that before she pouts... T.T

10. Tanjung Sooko Amastani aka Tanjung
She was, my second-year class mate at senior high school. We were sitting in front of the same desk, and she was fun to chat with. Like with the other friends, we loved to talk about gossips so much. Our favourite place were the food stall near our class, and the corridor near the volleyball field. One more thing about her, she has an extreme humour sense... Which sometimes could embarrassing other people.

6 WEIRD THINGS - PART 3

1. I couldn't start my sleeping time from midnight until dawn (sometimes even morning), especially at 00.00

2. Sometimes, I could smell a certain scent, which is usually just an illusion.. ^^; Once, I ever smelt garlic's scent, when I am inside my class. And believe me, after that it changed to apple, then fried fish and chilli paste... *lol*

3. Lactobacillus addicted. Well, the same as Suigintou... Only less than 1 week in a month I don't drink 'Lactobacillus'. Other than it, I drink it everyday, well, twice a day, sometimes even 3-4 times a day... (But recently I always forgot to drink it~!)

4. I could eat a *really* big bowl of shrimps or prawns. Even if it's for a family dinner, I would have eat at least 2/3 part of it. Sometimes, I will eat all of them. Well, weird thing, since I usually don't eat much...

5. Usually, my favourite character(s) in a story (book or film, or anything you call it :P) is not the main character. For example, Severus Snape from Harry Potter series, and Benawi from Utawarerumono. Other ones? I think you have to guess who.. :P

6. Ermm.. When you see a short message in my cell phone from Ryorin, usually you will see these words: Mu, nyan, munyan, maw, mew, and rawr~... (The personal language between Myurin and Ryorin aka ‘The Cute and Lovely Language of Munyan~’, red. :P) It's weird, isn't it? Because almost no ordinary message would be found...

Everyone who read this and haven’t made such a silly, useless post. I’m deadly serious. :P

Chemistry In Life Fourty-second Edition

2007-08-06T13:53:00.000+07:00

Hello and welcome back to Chemistry in Life. After a few editions with a long Another View, this time we’ll have a bit shorter one. Well, not that short.. *sighs* My personal report on Formula 1, as usual, and some online quizzes result. For now, just sit back, relax, and enjoy.

ANOTHER VIEW OF MYU-CHAN

27 July 2007

Nonton Pursuit of Happyness...

Hnyaa~ Filmnya lucu banget! Mengharukan...

Jaden-nya lucu banget waktu di film.. Hihi. Ga kebayang gimana jadinya kalau dia dewasa nanti.. Jangan-jangan jadi aktor terkenal kaya ayahnya...

28 July 2007

Salah satu pertandingan idaman saya di Piala Asia terwujud juga. Hari ini, perebutan tempat ketiga diselenggarakan di Stadion Jaka Baring Palembang, antara Korea Selatan versus Jepang. Yah, oke... Mengerti apa yang saya maksud? Duel ‘Penalti Dorama’ (atau ‘Dorama Penalti’, terserah deh.. :P)

Harap maklum, berhubung keduanya sama-sama sampai ke semifinal setelah menang adu penalti. Dan, ternyata eh ternyata...

Tempat ketiga dimenangkan oleh Korea Selatan setelah melalui 120 menit pertandingan plus drama adu penalti!

Jadi bingung... Ini dorama atau sepakbola? *ngeloyor kabur*

29 July 2007

Nah, setelah duel dorama, sekarang ganti... Final: Perebutan Minyak (dari) Timur Tengah. Kalau Ryorin bilang, Perang Teluk.

Awalnya rada males nonton, karena entah kenapa feeling saya bilang kalau Irak yang bakal menang, dan lucunya, saya ngerasa tenang banget, dan yakin feeling saya itu bener. Akhirnya sih nonton juga, saking penasarannya...

Dan... Pertama, wasitnya wasit favorit saya! *ditimpuks*

Kedua, permainannya lumayan lah. Irak bagus. Duh, ga nyangka... Negara yang lagi kacau karena perang seperti itu bisa punya tim sepakbola yang cukup baik.

Kata Ryorin, ‘Irak menang Perang Teluk.’

Hihi.

Euh, tapi kalau tiap kali Irak menang gini, terus dirayain pakai tembak-tembakan, terus ada peluru nyasar, ada bom.. Lama-lama tinggal pemain sepakbola sama officialnya doang nanti... Duh. Mudah-mudahan ga. Amin.

HIDUP IRAK!! HIDUP INDONESIA!!

Btw, Mark Shield, wasit (cakep, sumpah!) yang berasal dari Australia, dapat gelar sebagai wasit terbaik di Piala Asia 2007. Waha~!

1 August 2007

Euh, Myu heran. Sekarang kayanya semua orang doyan gosip. Bahkan bukan cuma artis yang digosipkan. Masa Presiden SBY juga?

Dan ini yang menggosipkan mantan orang terhormat pula. Zaenal Maarif. Tahu kan, mantan wakil ketua DPR itu?

Ketahuan anggota DPR suka ngegosip.

Ya, ya, saya tahu itu. Anda sekalian tidak bisa berbohong. Banyak artis di DPR, mana mungkin ga ngegosip mulu...

Dan gosipnya ga enak banget. SBY dikabarkan udah nikah sebelum masuk AKABRI, dan katanya nih, punya anak 2.

Katanya lagi, ZM itu punya buktinya...

Kontan deh, SBY ngamuk, dan dilaporkan ke polisi itu si ZM. Dibalas pula, bukti yang katanya otentik itu dikasihkan sama si ZM ke DPR, dan SBY balas diadukan ke polisi (juga).

Duh, aneh-aneh aja. Emang sih buat beberapa orang SBY kelewatan, terlalu emosional, atau apa lah. Tapi buat saya, wajarlah. Siapa sih yang ga bete kalau digosipkan seperti itu? Ibu Ani-nya aja keliatan jutek waktu ngelapor.

ZM malah lebih parah. Jelas-jelas dia yang menyebarkan gosip ke publik, kok masih mengelak itu gosip dia dapat dari mantan petinggi ABRI saat itu? Dan kalau dia udah tahu dari dulu, ngapain baru bilang sekarang setelah dia ga jadi wakil ketua DPR? Hh. Aneh.

Beberapa orang percaya ini cuma kampanye hitam terselubung aja, biar Presiden jatuh. Termasuk saya.

Ya.. Kalau katanya menikah sebelum masuk AKABRI, punya anak... Yang bener aja. Nikahnya kapan? Trus masuk AKABRI itu umur berapa? Secara logika, ga mungkin nikah umur segitu. Cewek sih mungkin, kalau cowok?

Apalagi yang katanya udah punya anak. Kapan nikahnya? Anaknya lahir kapan? Sekarang di mana? MANA, HEH, MANA?!

Jadi ingat kasus Taufik Hidayat. Ada wanita bawa anak ngaku-ngaku kalau si anak itu anaknya Taufik, padahal bukan. Dengan tenangnya Agum Gumelar komentar bahwa suatu saat mungkin bakal ada anak bawa tas ransel, ngaku kalau dia anaknya pak Agum.

Jangan-jangan nanti ada bapak-bapak umur 30-40an, ngaku dia anaknya SBY... Hayah.

3 August 2007

Yah, sedikit refreshing. Tadi siang saya baca press conference FIA, bersama Kubica, Kimi, Vettel, dan Sakon Yamamoto. Harusnya ada Abang Fernando juga, tapi ga datang karena McLaren membatalkan kehadiran yang bersangkutan...

Nah, ada satu hal yang menarik di sana...

Q: In fact, Kimi, it’s the same with you; this is almost the Finnish home race, isn’t it?
Kimi Raikkonen: Yeah, it's closest, at least. We usually get a lot of Finnish people here. It’s easy to come and they have lots of different opportunities to come, and it’s always nice to see them.

Q: Now, I keep hearing stories in the press room about a gorilla suit…
KR: (Laughs) Yeah, but was it really me? You don’t know. You hear a lot of stories always from the people there, so…

Q: But you won. Are you going to disclaim the win?
KR: Yeah, we've got the trophy already. It was just a boat race and we just went for fun.

From FIA Thursday Press Conference - Hungary

Okay. Tampaknya ga salah kalau teman-temannya di F1 bilang, ‘Kalau ada orang yang tidak terpengaruh dengan isu-isu di F1, Kimi-lah orangnya.’

Ini Ferrari sama McLaren sedang saling ribut, dan berseteru di belakang layar, dia malah ikut balapan motorboat... Ampun deh. Euh, tapi kalau tujuannya buat senang-senang.. Dia pasti ada. *timpuks*

And, err.. yes, gorilla suit… A gorilla suit. Is it really you, Kimi? :P

Yah, siapapun yang menyebarkan berita soal pakaian gorilla itu, sebarkan… Pada saya. :P (Curang, saya ga pernah diberitahu lebih dulu!)

*ngeloyor kabur*

*teriak dari jauh*

Eh, btw, cincin kawin kalau di Spanyol dipakainya di mana yah? Katanya kalau di Belanda di tangan kanan... Kalau di Spanyol sama, berarti kan Abang udah nikah.. :P

*kabur makin jauh*

PS: Ga bisa membandingkan dengan Kimi pakai cincin kawin di mana, soalnya dia ga pernah keliatan pakai cincinnya. Mungkin takut hilang? *g*

4 August 2007

Okay, welcome back to Sebastian Vettel, now in a Toro Rosso car… *g*

Kualifikasinya seru! Huhu… Felipe sempat mogok di kualifikasi babak kedua, entah kenapa… Katanya sih karena masalah teknis. Dan yah, akhirnya dia harus start dari grid ke-14…

Knalpot-nya Kubica juga sempat kebakar sebentar waktu isi bensin…

Terus, Abang juga sempat bermasalah dengan pembungkus ban-nya yang entah kenapa ogah dilepas, sampai kru-nya harus narik-narik itu sedikit... ^^;;

Dan, hasilnya: Abang, Akang, Nick, Kimi... Felipe terbuang ke urutan 14...

I wonder where Daddy Schuey is this Saturday… There’s a poster saying, ‘Schumi, Come Back’…

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Anyway… Kembali ke majalah F1 Racing. Bukan yang terbaru (saya belum beli yang covernya Felipe itu.. ^^)

Yah, ingat edisi kemarin? Bukalah halaman Paddock Spy, yang memuat: Michael Schumacher.

…Kesan pertama, begitu menggoda… Selanjutnya…

Ada adegan film mafia! Lebih tepatnya, adegan mafia di dalam telenovela... Atau apapun itu.

Hihi. Habisnya, pose Daddy waktu lagi ngobrol sama Roger Federer mirip sama adegan film mafia gitu... Mana Daddy-nya pakai kacamata hitam pula.

Btw, karena fotonya ga bisa saya tampilkan di sini, lihat sendiri di majalahnya ya...

5 Agustus 2007

Ada berita: Abang dianggap menghalangi Akang waktu kualifikasi kemarin. Tepatnya, saat pit stop. Akibatnya, Abang dikenai hukuman turun 5 posisi dari start dan harus memulai balapan dari posisi keenam.

Kabarnya lagi, insiden itu akibat Abang disuruh race engineernya membalas Akang.. Entah kenapa. Ga ngerti saya. Soalnya, menurut McLaren, Akang yang bersalah karena sempat menghalang-halangi Abang di lintasan.. Sementara, steward-nya bilang, Abang yang lebih bersalah, karena menghalangi pembalap lain mencatat waktu...

Dan, ujung-ujungnya, McLaren ga akan menerima poin konstruktor dari balapan di Hungaria ini, sebelum hasil banding mereka tentang kasus ini keluar. Abang juga ga punya hak untuk naik banding...

Duh, Myu agak bingung gimana sebenarnya soal kasus ini, jadi baca saja di sini

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Ternyata~ Kru Ferrari sempat lupa mengisi bensinnya Felipe kemarin!!! *timpuks kru*

Ampun deh. Udah transmisi sempat ga beres, bensin juga lupa ngisi? OMGWTF.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Baca hasil press conference Jumat kemarin, bersama Flavio Briatore (Renault), Christian Horner (Red Bull), Colin Kolles (Spyker), dan Aguri Suzuki (Super Aguri). Entah kenapa baca press conference bersama para petinggi tim macam mereka malah bikin saya ingin tertawa…

Dan, akhir-akhir ini konferensi pers hari Kamis dan Jumat tampak jauh lebih menarik bagi saya…

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Dan.. sempat berkunjung ke pameran buku di Landmark.. Rame!

Buat Ambu: Miyu beli bukunya Pursuit of Happyness juga~! Ternyata, beneran bagus…

Ada beberapa hal yang berbeda dari film-nya, tapi tetap aja.. Mengharukan.

Well, tampaknya kita harus sedikit belajar dari Chris Gardner tentang bagaimana mengejar kebahagiaan...

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Akang menang GP~! Huhuhu~ Kimi kedua, Nick ketiga... Abang keempat. Felipe? Entah kenapa, dia di nomor tiga belas. Aih.

Oh, well.. Good job on saving Ferrari, Kimi.. *hugs* Well done.

Geez… It’s supposed to be Lewis’ day, but I saw Finnish crowd, Ferrari tifosi running to the podium…

Euh, dan yah, melihat Kimi senyum, ketawa berdua sama Akang di belakang podium… Lucuuu~ *ditimpuks*

Habisnya, dua orang ini mah bisa dibilang cuek dengan apa yang terjadi… Singkatnya, masalah apapun yang terjadi di luar sana, buat mereka: ‘Mari kita balapan saja dan santai saja…’

Kemudian, tambahkan Nick ke dalam daftar yang tersenyum di atas podium..

Ahem. Mari kita lepaskan semua masalah yang ada~ Nikmati hari bahagia ini~~~ *nyanyi ga jelas*

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Terus, bukti video pernikahan SBY ternyata kurang meyakinkan... Dasar oposan kurang kerjaan...

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Geez.. If he understand that planning to go home at these days makes me REALLY sad…

Actually, going home is now a bad idea for me… I NEVER wanted to go home, anymore.

I hate my father. I HATE MY FATHER.

Sometimes, I even wished that my father would be really a Michael Schumacher, who loves his wife and children dearly… Or maybe Anthony Hamilton, or whoever it is, as long as he is not insulting his children about his/her weaknesses, everything about it… And as long as that guy is not a guy who only could blame other people, especially his children, for all of his failed efforts.

IF YOUR PLANNED HOME WAS BURNT BACK THEN, THAT WAS NOT MY FAULT, YOU STUPID, FOOLISH CRAP~!!!

And sometimes, I wished I would never meet my father anymore. For me, he is a JUNK.

JUNK!!!

*tries to calm down*

Maybe I have to eat some chocolate, muffins, or drink some tea, before all these sadness overwhelmed myself…

FORMULA 1 HUNGARIAN GRAND PRIX – HUNGARORING, BUDAPEST - REPORT

Hello. How’re you? Hope you all are fine.

We’ve arrived in Hungary, for a Hungarian Grand Prix. Fernando Alonso was penalized five position after a small incident in the pit last Saturday, so even though he secured the pole position, he had to start the race from sixth place. (And McLaren would not get any points from this race...) Meanwhile, Ferrari’s Felipe Massa experienced a transmission problem on second qualifying, thus making him to start from fourteenth.

And, for this race, we’ll have Lewis Hamilton starting from the first place, while Nick Heidfeld second, Kimi Raikkonen third, Nico Rosberg fourth. Ralf Schumacher fifth (yeah!), and Fernando Alonso sixth.

Giancarlo Fisichella was also penalized, I don’t really know why, so he had to begin the race from thirteenth...

So... Let’s enjoy the race... :)

(Go Nick Heidfeld~!! :P *runs away from Kimi* Just kidding, Kimppa.. :P)

As the lamp went off, Hamilton calmly secured his lead at the GP, while Kimi took second place from Nick. As usual, there was crowd at the back. Alonso’s position was stolen by Kubica, and at that time, Alonso was seventh.

Lap 2, Alonso lost his position again, now to Mark Webber. But about one lap after it, he got his position back.

Lap 4, Alonso passed Kubica, and became sixth.

Meanwhile, Felipe Massa was struggling on the back, as he was sixteenth at that time.

Lap 6, Sakon Yamamoto retired after a crash. Yellow flag. At the same time, Lewis’ gap to Kimi was already over 3 seconds, but the one who was flying was really.. Kimi Raikkonen.

Lap 8, Alonso was slower than Lewis, while Kimi set a fastest lap. Yellow flag was off, now.

Lap 15, Lewis was already over 4 s ahead of Kimi, and over 12 s ahead of Nick. The gap between drivers has really grown.

Lap 18, Nick and Alonso pitted at the almost same time. Alonso dropped to twelfth.

One lap after, Ralf Schumacher made his first stop for the day from third place.

Lap 19, Kimi Raikkonen pitted. Refuelled for about 25 laps more, but he was still on second place, since Hamilton was also pitted at the same lap, and Nick had also pitted two laps before.

Lap 28, finally, Kovalainen made his first stop and rejoined ninth. On the radio after he went back to the track, I heard the crew asking him if the tire feel 'nice'...

Meanwhile, Kimi was still flying, chasing after Lewis. Alonso was seventh. Well, just to inform.

Anyway, I think I began to love this track.. Nice view...

It’s already lap 33, and Nico Rosberg made a stop. Lewis and Kimi overlapped some drivers.

And, lap 35, Fernando Alonso went a little off the track as he chased down Ralf Schumacher. At the same time, Felipe Massa was eleventh, not yet to make a stop.

One lap after it, Felipe finally made his stop. He rejoined right in front of the race leader(s), Lewis and Kimi, who were overlapping the back-grid drivers, thus making a Ferrari sandwich (y’know, Ferrari-McLaren-Ferrari)...

Lap 38, yellow flag was on again, as Honda’s Jenson Button had to retired from the race. Hamilton was the fastest man on the track, at that time.

Lap 42, Alonso was still stuck behind Ralf. At the same time, Nick made his second stop, and rejoined in front of Ralf. Fisichella was also pitted soon after that.

Lap 43, Anthony Davidson spun on a turn, and he had to retired. Third man to be retired on the day. Yellow flag. Meanwhile, Ferrari was getting ready for a stop.

Soon after Ant’s retirement, Liuzzi had to retired, too. Seemed because of a technical problem..

Lap 46, yellow flag was still on. Lewis already over 39 s ahead of Alonso (who was fifth) at that time. Meanwhile, Kimi made a stop and rejoined... still second.

22 laps remaining, and Ralf Schumacher made his second stop. Lewis not yet to make his second stop. Felipe now twelfth.

21 laps remaining, the race leader Lewis Hamilton made his second stop. Soon after it, the crew’s getting ready for Alonso.

Then, Alonso pitted. Felipe was also pitted about one lap after that and became fourteenth behind Wurz.

15 laps remaining, Nico Rosberg made his final pit for the day. Kubica pitted one lap after that.

Meanwhile, Kimi and Lewis were flying as they tried to overlap Trulli.

12 laps remaining, Kimi was chasing Lewis, giving Lewis a lot of pressure...

At that time, I think I can hear a lot of Finn cheering for Kimi there...

10 laps remaining, and now Alonso was pushing hard. Giving pressures to Nick, as well as trying to get past him.

8 laps remaining, Kimi and Lewis were still on a fight for first place. Anyway, as Kimi passed the Finnish crowd, the Finnish flag is waved... ^^;;

6 laps remaining, and Lewis Hamilton enjoyed his lead with a pressure from Kimi Raikkonen. Well, I mean, Lewis and Kimi were enjoying their lead to other drivers, while fighting each other at the same time.. *g*

And, I heard that we wouldn’t see Uncle Ron Dennis on the podium... If Lewis win...

3 laps remaining... Alonso was still struggling to get a podium, while, yes, Lewis and Kimi were still leading in front on Nick and Alonso... Felipe was also still struggling on thirteenth place.

And, finally! The race ended with Lewis Hamilton as the winner *hugs* , Kimi Raikkonen second *squishes*, Nick Heidfeld third *tickles*, Fernando Alonso fourth *...pinches*, Robert Kubica fifth, Ralf Schumacher sixth, Nico Rosberg seventh, and Heikki Kovalainen eighth. For those wondering where little Felipe Massa is, he finished the race thirteenth. For the fastest lap, well.. It was Kimi who set that... ^^

So, for the driver’s championship: Lewis is still leading with 80 points, Alonso comes second with 73 points, Kimi back to third place with 60 points, and Felipe is now fourth with 59 points. After this weekend’s result, Nick Heidfeld will be fifth with 42 points.

As for the constructor championship, no constructor points for McLaren. Their points are provisional until their appeal result is announced, so...

Well, they’re still leading with 138 points, Ferrari second with 119 points, and BMW third with 71 points.

No McLaren’s representative at the podium, anyway...

Congrats, Lewis, Kimi, and Nick! Good job, you all~!

Believe me, I want to kiss Nick’s baby right now... Dunno why, it just come to my mind...

ANOTHER VIEW OF MYU-CHAN

*Indonesian mode ON*

11 July 2007

Pertandingan Korsel vs Arab Saudi jadi pertandingan yang sangaaatlah romantis: skor 1-1 dan mati lampu sekitar 5 menit sebelum bubaran. Memang sih, akhirnya dilanjutkan lagi 20 menit kemudian, tapi hasilnya sama aja..

That’s was really romantic, isn’t it? *runs away*

12 July 2007
Pagi-pagi saya nonton berita, dan dapat kabar: Taufik Savalas meninggal dunia. Innalillahi wa inna ilaihi raji’un..

Awalnya ga ngerti kenapa. Tapi setelah baca NewsTicker di Metro TV… Ternyata.. Kecelakaan. Duh, kasihan banget.. Mana mobilnya sampai hancur begitu.. T.T

14 July 2007

Indonesia kalah 1-2 dari Arab Saudi! Duh, mana pas detik-detik terakhir pula.

Jadinya, Kolev ga dapat hadiah kemenangan di hari ultahnya. Tapi menurut saya dan Ryorin, dia sudah cukup puas lah dengan timnas Indonesia. Gimana ngga, timnas kita itu mainnya udah cukup hebat! Menahan imbang selama kira-kira 90 menit bukan hal yang mudah.

Yang jadi perhatian saya: wasitnya itu geblek, teu puguh, kucluk, ora nggenah, gendeng, edan, kurang kerjaan, sinting, bungul, dll, dsb, etc.. Lha wong curang ke timnas ga tanggung-tanggung.. --;;

Yah, Indonesia kalah dengan kepala tegak! Semangat, Indonesia!

15 July 2007

Nonton HP 5 dan.. Cukup kecewa. Apalagi pas saya sampai rumah, soalnya saya sadar, ada banyak sekali adegan penting yang dipotong. Dan ada yang berubah dari bukunya, beberapa. Duh.

O ya, karena saya sangatlah malas menulis laporan... Maka baca saja laporan pandangan mata dari Ambudaff dan Renny Potter yang baik hati di sini

Ada fotonya juga, lho!

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Ternyata~ Bukan cuma saya dan Ryorin yang sebel sama wasit Arab vs Indonesia, yang namanya Ali al-Badwawi itu...

SBY (Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono, dan juga Si Butet Yogya :P) protes, suporter protes, dan semua orang protes. Bahkan hampir semua blog yang isinya tentang Piala Asia memprotes kepemimpinan wasit sialan itu.

Sampai-sampai, saya usul begini ke Ryorin: ’Gimana kalau wasit bukan hanya ga boleh dari wilayah yang berdekatan, tapi benar-benar dari luar region yang akan bertanding?’

Maksud saya, kalau pertandingannya skala Indonesia aka nasional, wasitnya dari Australia atau Malaysia, dan kalau skala Asia, wasitnya dari... Amerika atau Eropa...

Dan.. ’Wasit Final Piala Asia dari.. Uruguay!!’

Begitulah kesimpulan kami. :P

Tapi… ide bagus toh? Daripada jadinya kaya si Badwawi itu…

Ah, well, meskipun wasitnya duduls berat, permainan timnas Sabtu kemarin dipuji, termasuk oleh Arab Saudi.

Dan Korsel kalah dari Bahrain. Skornya kompak banget sama Arab-Indo, dan Indo-Bahrain. 2-1. Walhasil, saya ngakak berat sambil nari-nari...

Tentu, saya jadi optimis Indonesia bisa mengalahkan atau paling tidak, menahan imbang Korsel... Maju Indonesia! Hidup Merah Putih!

PS: Sempat mikir gini juga: ’Wasit Final Piala Asia: Pierluigi Collina~!’ Eh, tapi kan dia udah pensiun...

16 July 2007

Karena terpengaruh komentar beberapa orang, saya beli majalah F1 Racing edisi Indonesia terbaru (bulan Juli, tentu!) dan... Ada artikel yang isinya komentar-komentar Kimi Raikkonen yang menarik.

Beberapa yang paling menarik buat saya itu yang ini:

“Hal yang bodoh menghabiskan uang untuk yacht tapi enggak punya waktu untuk menggunakannya. Buat apa beli dan membiarkannya di pelabuhan kalau kita cuma memakainya dua minggu dalam setahun? Jika kepingin yacht, saya akan menyewa yang lebih besar dengan harga lebih murah.”

Well, he’s very logical, isn’t he? In fact, he spent his money really logically. He owns almost everything fast, from bicycle to cars, but not much. And he only rent a yacht when he wants to use one.

“Tempat itu lebih santai. Saya tak suka kota besar – terlalu bising. Dan Swiss seperti Finlandia: banyak salju. Dan tentu saja, pajaknya tak terlalu tinggi.”

LOL. That’s why Kimi Raikkonen decided to live in Switzerland... ^^;;

“Banyak yang menjuluki saya Iceman. Tapi saya tak merasa seperti itu. Saya hanya tak ingin banyak membual.”

Kimi, Kimi.. Admit it, Iceman is the best nick for you. Moreover, it sounds better than.. Cuteman. :P (Yeah, Kimi is really cute recently, especially when he is smiling or laughing…)

Dan.. Apa yang dilakukan penduduk Finlandia di waktu senggang?

Inilah jawaban seorang Kimi Raikkonen (dengan gaya yang tetap kalem –dan mungkin sedikit kaku-):

“Well, pada musim panas biasanya memancing dan berpesta. Dan di musim dingin… tidak pergi memancing.”

LOL. *timpuks Kimi* *ngakak berat*

That’s the funniest Kimi’s comment I ever known… I don’t know why, but I cracked up when reading it… LOL.

Sebenarnya masih banyak lagi, tapi saya pikir sebaiknya Anda baca sendiri majalahnya…

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Umm.. dan… ternyata penyebab kegagalan Anthony Davidson di Montreal kemarin adalah… seekor tupai tanah!

Aih, gimana sih kamu, Ant, kok bisa nabrak tupai tanah?

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Cucu-cucu saya, Lily dan Herda, ternyata terkena demam Harvest Moon.. Duh, telatnya kalian.. Padahal saya sudah main itu sejak berabad-abad yang lalu.. :P

18 July 2007

Ngomong-ngomong, apa ya hubungan Ron Dennis dengan Robert Kubica? Benarkah Om Dennis pernah menyelamatkan Kubica..?

..Ternyata, maybe yes, maybe no. :P

Yah, ternyata dokter yang menyelamatkan Kubica dari kecelakaan di Kanada kemarin itu namanya Dr. Ronald Dennis. Kebetulan yang *cukup* mengerikan.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Tahukah Anda…?

Di Indianapolis kemarin, rupanya ada seorang pengemis yang mengejar-ngejar Bernie Ecclestone sambil berteriak, ‘Hei, milyuner.’, karena ada seorang penonton balapan yang mengatakan Bernie adalah seorang milyuner sewaktu Bernie melewati pengamen tersebut.

LOL.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Perkataan Giancarlo Fisichella ini mungkin perlu diingat semua pembalap di grid saat ini:

“Selain persiapan fisik yang sempurna, pembalap jangan membatasi dirinya hanya konsentrasi pada diri sendiri.”

“Ia bukan satu-satunya orang yang bertempur dalam balapan. Belasan orang di garasi dan pabrik juga terlibat di dalamnya.”

Yeah, memang. Balapan sebenarnya bukan kerja individu. Kesannya saja seperti itu, tapi sebenarnya bukan. Ia adalah kerja tim. Tanpa tim/paket yang mumpuni, balapan akan kacau.

Kalau seorang pembalap menang, ia pasti merayakan bersama tim-nya. Dan, sebaiknya, saat kalah, ia tak boleh menyesali (atau meratapi atau apapun) kekalahannya itu sendirian. Hadapi saja bersama tim. Mereka kan sudah bekerja bersama, jadi menang atau kalah, kita hadapi dan lalui bersama.

(Oh, dan karena saya sadar di F1 kita harus bekerja sebagai sebuah tim, dan tim itu seakan adalah keluarga kecil di arena F1... Maka saya menganggap Ferrari sebagai keluarga saya, keluarga dekat. Dan tim lain sebagai keluarga jauh, termasuk McLaren –walaupun saya suka sebel-. Well, fans juga bagian dari keluarga besar sebuah tim kan? Jadi jangan heran kalau saya menganggap Schumi adalah Daddy saya, dan Felipe adalah adik saya (walau jelas-jelas ia lebih tua). Dan pembalap lain di luar Ferrari.. paman atau sepupu saya.)

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Dan... Indonesia kalah 1-0 dari Korea Selatan! Duh.

Permainan TimNas sebenarnya lumayan bagus, sayang, kadang terburu-buru, jadi peluang yang ada malah sering terbuang sia-sia. Tapi bagus lah, kita hanya kalah 1-0 dari Korsel. Artinya, pertahanan kita sudah terbilang baik. Dan ya, serangan kita juga cukup bagus, hanya saja, sekali lagi, mungkin lain kali kalau bertanding tidak perlu terlalu terburu-buru seperti tadi sore. Terus, lini tengahnya lebih diperkuat lagi, soalnya Myu dengar di situ kelemahan Indonesia.

O ya, kata Ryorin, ’Paling tidak pertandingan kita bermutu semua… ’

Bener juga sih, jarang-jarang nonton TimNas itu menyenangkan... Biasanya mainnya ga terlalu bagus dan terkesan asal-asalan, malas-malasan... Tapi di Piala Asia kali ini, mainnya semangat banget, dan lebih bagus dari yang kita harapkan.

Suporter kita sendiri patut diacungi jempol, karena bisa bersikap lebih dewasa. *tepuk tangan*

Duh, coba kalau nonton sepakbola antar klub bisa seperti nonton timnas, tertib, aman, dan damai, kalau kalah ga rusuh.. pasti enak....

Oh, dan buat mas Ponaryo dkk, maaf banget ya, saya ga sempat nonton pertandingannya secara utuh, walau cuma dari layar kaca. Harap maklum, berhubung Myu lagi sebel ama Ryorin yang mengganggu pendengaran saya. Bayangkan saja, lagi dengerin komentator soal kang Zaenal Arif, dipotong sama komentarnya Ryorin. Kontan, saya ngamuk-ngamuk.. Dan, ya, begitulah, maaf ya Teletubbies, maaf Kelik Pelipur Lara.. *ditimpuks*

Loh, defendernya TimNas Indonesia itu Teletubbies kan? Dan kaptennya (Ponaryo Astaman, red.) mirip Kelik Pelipur Lara (dari samping) kan? :P

Hehe. ^^; *kabur dari kejaran pemain-pemain TimNas*

Yah, bravo Merah Putih! Kita kalah dengan terhormat, bung! Kita kalah, dengan kepala tegak!

Mudah-mudahan… TimNas tahun-tahun mendatang bisa sebaik ini, atau kalau bisa, lebih baik. Amin.

PS: Wasitnya cakep banget! Euh, boleh kenalan ga? *ditimpuks*
PPS: Om Kolev, makasih banget ya! Jangan kapok melatih TimNas, walaupun sekarang kita gagal....
PPPS: Iya, iya… makasih juga buat TimNas dan juga suporter-nya yang luar biasa (termasuk SBY dan istri tercinta...)

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Btw, ada satu hal menarik buat saya: Arab Saudi mengalahkan Indonesia, Indonesia mengalahkan Bahrain... Arab Saudi mengalahkan Bahrain (4-0, kalau ga salah).. Yah, hitung-hitungannya masih bener.

Kalau Indonesia-Bahrain-Korsel... kok kaya lingkaran setan ya? Indonesia mengalahkan Bahrain, Bahrain mengalahkan Korsel, dan... Korsel mengalahkan Indonesia... Kebetulan yang mengerikan dan aneh sekali...

21 July 2007

Hari ini ada launching buku Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. Katanya, di Gramedia Merdeka ada games-nya. Tadinya Myu mau ke sana, sama Lily, Renny, dan Manda, tapi entah kenapa malamnya saya ga bisa tidur dan baru tidur jam 1 malam. Walhasil, paginya saya langsung ga enak badan.

Tapiiii~~… Kata Manda, games-nya ga seru! Sepi!

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Nick Heidfeld punya anak cowok~! Horeee~!!!

Congrats! ^^

So, Nick, tell me his name, please… *g*

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Akang Lewis sayah tiba-tiba nabrak ban pembatas di ronde ketiga kualifikasi!! Aaarghh~~!! T.T

Duh… Kok ya bisa, itu ban bocor di tengah jalan.. Padahal kan baru ganti… Apa jangan-jangan Akang sempet nginjek sesuatu?

Dan pas tabrakan, begitu keluar keliatan banget Akang shock.. Kasihan...

Ah, ya, Kimi pole! Abang kedua, Felipe ketiga... Akang, terpaksa start dari grid ke-10 karena kecelakaan itu…

22 July 2007

Well.. Kimi bawa neneknya hari ini… dan..

Nurburgring kebanjiran hanya dalam lima lap! Restart deh…

Btw, kata Ambu, bentar lagi balapan F1 bakal pakai mobil yang dilengkapi sama dayung dan layar…

Aaargghh~!!! Mana ramalan cuacanya hujan lagi 12 menit setelah keputusan restart.. T.T

Beberapa lap restart, ganti lagi ramalannya. Ga akan ada hujan. OMGWTF.

Well, ya, memang setelah itu cuaca terbilang cukuuuuuuup cerah. --;;

Dan.. Aaarrrghhh~!!! Kimi-nya bermasalah gara-gara insiden di ujung pit lane pas hujan tadi! T.T

Yah, saya sedikit puas tapi kecewa dengan Abang Fernando podium pertama, Felipe kedua, Webber ketiga...

Huwaaaa~~~ *peluk-peluk Felipe sambil nangis*

Aaarghh~! That was really a horrible day.. T.T *pats Kimi and Hamilton*

Euh, dan kata Ambu, Daddy Schuey lutu kalau pakai kemeja di atas podium...

Okeh. Siapa dulu anaknya~~~ Miyu... *pasang wajah sok imut dan lutu* *disambit*

Aih, kan saya memang lutu... *narsis mode ON*

*semua orang di seantero dunia langsung menyiapkan sesuatu buat nimpuk kucing narsis*

*gubraks* *bletags* *jleger*

Huwaaa~~~ *pundung berats*

Masa saya bercanda dikit ditimpukin gitu sih.. T.T Harusnya kalian kan menghibur diri saya yang lagi pundung gara-gara balapan yang kacaunya minta ampyuuuuuuun~~ T.T

Yah, Abang Fernando, selamat yah. Dan… Kapan kawin? *disambit Abang pake helm*

Iya, iya, Felipe, Kimi, I love you both! Next time, we’ll have a Ferrari one-two, or at least both car finished… *hugs*

Next time, I don’t want neither Kimi, Alonso, Felipe, nor Hamilton retired from the race. Well, probably also all the other drivers.. I don’t care if Alonso or Hamilton is Macca’s driver, and if they gain more points… But the race is a lot more fun when your rivals are on the track, along with your team’s hero(es). Absolutely.

Oh, well.. let’s keep crossing our finger, Ferrari! Keep crossing your finger, everyone!

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Okay, tambahkan satu mitos: Kimi dilarang dapat hasil kualifikasi yang saangaaaaat bagus kalau mau berhasil di Nurburgring. Dari data, mending kualifikasinya ga bagus-bagus amat. Pasti masih bisa finis. *ngeloyor*

Atau mungkin Kimi perlu bawa burger dari Burger King supaya berhasil di Nurburgring? *kabur makin jauh*

Eh, tapi mungkin sialnya Kimi kali ini adalah supaya Kimi ga sial di Hungaria seperti tahun kemarin.. (pole, dan malah gagal finish.)

Yah, oke, sekarang saya merasa baikan... Tapi... Chocolate please!

Kalau bisa, yang banyak yah, coklatnya.. :P

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Jepang, Korsel, Arab Saudi, dan Irak masuk 4 besar di ajang Piala Asia. Nanti, Jepang bakal ketemu Arab, sementara Korsel akan berhadapan dengan Irak di semifinal.

Hmm... Kalau nanti setelah semifinal ini Jepang bertemu Korsel, dan Arab bertemu Irak... Bakal lucu. Ada duel ‘Penalti Dorama’ (karena Korsel dan Jepang lolos ke semifinal melalui adu penalti, dan sama-sama terkenal dengan dorama alias sinetronnya), dan duel ’Minyak dari Timur Tengah’. (karena, yah... Arab Saudi dan Irak kan sama-sama dari Timur Tengah yang kaya minyak... *ditimpuks karena ga penting*)

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Suporter Indonesia yang diwakili oleh suporter Persib, Persikota, dan PSMS (dan entah mana lagi saya lupa..) berjanji untuk menjadikan momentum Piala Asia sebagai kebangkitan para suporter dalam kedewasaan berpikir di acara News Dot Com di Metro TV. Jadi, mereka janji untuk menganggap suporter lain saudara; bukan musuh, menjunjung tinggi fair play, dan tidak bakal terlibat tawuran. Ada lima poin tadi kalau ga salah, tapi intinya sih itu.

Semoga saja resolusi ini *benar-benar* dipenuhi... Hidup Indonesia! Amin.

23 July 2007

FORMULA 1 ~~GERMANY~~ EUROPEAN GRAND PRIX 2007 – NURBURGRING – REPORT

Hello, folks! Isn’t it great to have a race again this weekend? *g*

And now it’s time for a Ger.. No, an European Grand Prix. I heard the promoter of Hockenheim doesn’t want Nurburgring to use the name ‘Grand Prix of Germany’, so it’s now European. And yes, no Germany GP this year. Maybe next year, where Hockenheim will be used (AFAIK).

On the qualification day, Kimi Raikkonen got a pole position, Fernando Alonso second, Felipe Massa third, and Nick Heidfeld fourth (yay for our little hero! Okay, Nick. It was for your son… *g*), while Lewis Hamilton.. Had to start from tenth grid as he had an accident during the third stage of qualifying. His tire suddenly had a puncture and he went off the track, crashed into the tire barrier. His car was a bit damaged, but apparently, Hamilton was having almost no injury, except a great shock.

Let’s began the race, dude!

*OT mode ON* Kimi brought his grandma to the track on the day! And Daddy Schuey was there!! *OT mode OFF*

As the lamp went off, Kimi led the race after a bit struggling when trying to kept up his position from Felipe and Alonso. Felipe was second, and Alonso third. There was crowd at the back, Kubica spun and some drivers went a little off the track. Suddenly, it rained heavily and all the drivers had to change their tire. Well, Kimi had to has a few lap before he entered the pit. The race is currently led by Winkelhock.

Lap 3, the rain was really heavy, and Button, Rosberg, Speed, Sutil, Hamilton….Retired. Well, they crashed into the first turn… Yellow flag. Safety car was ready.

And then, Liuzzi retired. The track seemed to be soaked with water now.

Lap 4, Hamilton was allowed to went back to the track. Markus Winkelhock who replaced the departed Christijan Albers still led the race in his Spyker car, behind the safety car.

Lap 5, the red flag is on, as the rain is incredibly heavy. And yes.. Nurburgring was flooded. Obviously, with water.

Aaaaaarrrrrrrrrghhhh~!!!

Well, it seems we would have a restart. Winkelhock first, Felipe second, Alonso third. The pole sitter Kimi had to restart from seventh, because of the former ‘accident’ when he was about to enter the pit lane.

Alonso even took a nap for a few minutes!

Okay.. FIA said the race restarted at 14.35, local time… And after that, the weather forecast said that it would rain again in 12 minutes.. T.T

WTF?!

…

And the race restarted, with Safety Car leading.

Well, everything still went well with the Safety Car out there… Some drivers changed their tires, though.

Now comes prediction.. again. No rain in 30 minutes. &$*@&$^$@??? Oh, well. Yay.

Lap 6, the race truly restarted. Felipe was head to head with Alonso and Winkelhock, and he led the race. Alonso second, Kimi sixth. Winkelhock now eighth. Hamilton is still on the back grid.

Lap 8, Nick Heidfeld set a fastest lap, while Lewis Hamilton was still struggling.

Lap 9, Kimi tried to pass Kovalainen, but the youngster prevented his senior from passing him.

Lap 10, we heard from Webber’s radio that his team was ready for a pit stop. It’s a gamble, anyway. Kimi pitted soon after that and rejoined in 13th.

Lap 11, a new fastest lap was set by Lewis Hamilton. Both Felipe and Alonso had a pit stop. Alonso had a longer one. Kimi now fifth.

Lap 15, Winkelhock retired. He seemed to had an engine problem. Or whatever it is…

And, well. Yellow flag is on. Kimi set a new fastest lap, then. Felipe led the race.

Lap 18, Kovalainen pushed a little bit and passed Wurz. He was fifth at the time.

One lap after it, Ralf Schumacher hit by Heidfeld’s car (probably unintentionally, but the race stewards still investigated them), spun into the final turn, and sadly.. He had to retired from the race. Yellow flag is on.. again.

It’s 38 laps before finish, and we only had 14 drivers left. Felipe Massa lead for about 4 seconds ahead of Alonso, and Kimi was just about 1 second behind the running world champion.

Lap 28, Barrichello’s lamp was flailing. Kovalainen pitted and rejoined in tenth place.

Lap 30, it seemed that the sky upon the track was clouded… Lewis Hamilton was the fastest man on the track, while Felipe Massa still led the race.

27 laps before the end of the race, and Hamilton tried to get past Fisichella. However, Fisichella didn’t even give a chance for him to do that.

Well, he did that just a few turns before the end of the lap.

Lap 37, Kimi seemed to had a problem with his car. He went a lot slower than before. Hamilton pitted.

24 laps before the race finished, Kimi made his looong way to the pit lane. He’s retired, and… Schumi looked a bit upset. Seemed that Kimi had a technical problem because of the crazy race at the very first…

And a few seconds after that, in the Ferrari garage, we saw Chris Dyer talking to the Ice Man who’s trying to hide his upset.

22 laps remaining, and Felipe pitted. Meanwhile, Kimi was interviewed by the reporter. He said that he missed the pit lane at the first stage of the race because it was really slippery, but I didn’t hear well about his car problem. Anyway, later, I heard it was because of hydraulic problem...

Well, it seems that the ‘Nurburgring jinx’ was still working on the poor Kimi Raikkonen. *pats Kimi*

19 laps remaining, and Hamilton passed Barrichello, making him became tenth at that moment.

16 laps to go, and all the Ferrari crew was crossing fingers, laid down their hope to the Felipe Massa, the remaining Ferrari soul on the track.

12 laps remaining and… A new weather forecast said that it would rain within 7 minutes… T.T

Meanwhile, in the pit wall, the Ferrari’s Michael Schumacher looked up to the sky, a little bit worried.. And the spectators was ready with raincoat.

One lap after that, Kovalainen gambled for a pit and finally used an intermediate tire.

And.. it’s only nine lap to go.. While the rain began to falling down to earth.. again. Everybody in the pit lane was ready if the drivers want to change their tire.

Well, everyone did change their tire, except for Kovalainen who had it just a few lap before.

6 laps remaining, and Alonso was giving a lot of pressure to Felipe.

5 laps to go, Alonso took the lead from Felipe! Argh. Seemed that the McLaren’s car is much stronger when it is raining.

4 laps remaining, and Jean Todt looked very worried. Felipe was still struggling in the second place. Daddy Schuey was upset, but he had to give the trophy for the constructor winner… So he left the building to change his clothes.

And… Fernando Alonso won the race (which was predicted Kimi’s or at least, Ferrari’s), followed by Felipe in second place, Webber third (though he slipped a few metres before the finish lane), Wurz fourth, Coulthard fifth, Heidfeld sixth, Kubica seventh, and Kovalainen eighth. For those who wants to know about Lewis Hamilton.. He’s ninth.

Anyway, Daddy Schuey was looked a bit upset after he gave the trophy to the McLaren principal Ron Dennis.

Well, it was a horrible day. 9 drivers became the real victim of the awful race, including Ferrari’s Kimi Raikkonen, and Honda’s Jenson Button. In fact, everyone was really struggling… So, congrats for the finishing drivers, and hugs for everyone.

Err… Well… Ferrari is now 27 points behind of McLaren. As the driver’s championship, Hamilton still leads with 70 points, followed by Alonso in a close second (68 points), Felipe third with 59 points, while Kimi is now fourth with 52 points.

A lot of work to do for the Ferrari people… Oh, well. As Michael Schumacher told us by his crossing finger gesture at the first of the European GP.. Keep crossing ~~your~~ our finger! *hugs Kimi, Felipe, Schumi, Todt, all the crews, and all the tifosi*

Next time, we’ll bring a lot of burgers to Nurburgring! *Ferrari people: OMGWTF, ROTFLMAO*

See ya.

3. Often refers to myself as ‘Ore’ if I am talking Japanese. Yeah, it should be a man who talking, not a girl.

4. Really, really love to playing or walking under the rain without an umbrella! No matter if it’s heavy rain, I love it so much. Ah, well, but now Ryorin prohibits me from it.. T.T

5. I really love to grab a bit of salt, sugar, and pepper (and eat it, of course) if I am cooking at the kitchen.

6. My favorite vegetable is… Uncooked veggies! Especially uncooked carrot and beans… It’s… So crunchy!!!
