And the Answer Is…

Hullo and happy holidays!
Let me begin with the good news that I was accepted to major Psychology at Universitas Brawijaya.
It was my dream since tenth grade. Goodness knows the catharsis I'm feeling.
Secondly, I've finished a project that popped out of nowhere into my head but didn't stop growing since. As Dom from Inception put it, ideas are like cancer.
This idea is titled GRAVEDANCER. I'll write on that later.
I'm also working on Black Out (an old idea, I'll probably retitle it later) with a whole new approach. Loving it so far, although something tells me I'll hate it later and I'll go on a revision frenzy.
But that's for later.
Right now, I'm pondering over the big Q.
The big Q: what do literary agents want from a query letter?
I am honestly overwhelmed by the 'successful' query letters posted online that I've been reading these past few weeks (which contributes hugely to my current insomniac episodes) and their variety.
Some use the standard three-blocks structure (opening, pitch blurb, bio. I'll elaborate later for those who don't know).
Some use first-person blurbs immediately.
Some only talk about the book with zero writer background information given.
I. Am. Overwhelmed.
So overwhelmed that when I stare at the query letter for GRAVEDANCER, I can already imagine the agent scrolling down in boredom.
Goodness, please don't let that happen.
I've tried and revised and do that over and over again for the pitch blurb alone. And after I put together the query letter, I just realized how much more revision it needs.
Sigh.
I've read one too many blogpost on how to write query letters and cover letters. I'm not sure that the fact that I'm an eighteen year-old science maniac with superstitious background is enough to justify me going so technical on the magic in GRAVEDANCER (yes, it's about magic! And I have a full PowerPoint presentation explaining how it's all possible. Can you imagine?), but goodness knows the lengths I've gone to research this – from leaving my Social Studies background for learning thermodynamics and relentlessly asking my mom about my grandfather's (may he rest in peace) practices (he was a renowned shaman, how cool is that?) and even looking up and asking those traditionally (this is Java, magic THRIVES here) spiritually adept people to share a thing or two. I can say that the Gravedancer universe has quite grown on its own with its own laws and unsolved mysteries.
And boy, do I love the characters' growth.
It doesn't show much in book 1 because the book's plot only spans over less than 24 hours, but that PowerPoint I talked about detailed every aspect of the characters' growth. I can see their lives flashing before my eyes, and I'm trying to put all that into writing all six books that I have in mind (agents will probably reject me immediately as soon as they hear this, but let's not be pessimistic, shall we?). 24 hours can only do so much, but an entire year is enough to transform people, even entire communities. And that is exactly what happens in the Gravedancer universe.
So back to the big Q: what can I do to make agents want me?
In the end, I tried my hardest to fit my style into the query letter. No, not my quirks, I can save that for the novel. Alden (the narrator of Book 1) is pretty quirky. I tried to make it sound businesslike, but friendly and personalized. I tried to make it sound intriguing, and tried to (via subtext) convey in it why I thought the idea was worth making in the first place. And I tried to share that feeling with them.
I have no idea how I did. But I'm going to send it, either way.
I've looked up literary agencies for weeks now (yes, the search for the Good Query Letter overlaps with it) and I've set my eyes on one. I read the agents' blog posts, and suffice it to say that I'm enticed enough to overcome my lack of confidence and try.
For this moment, it'll be my best. But I know that if I got rejected, I'll grow. And my best will be even better! How cool is that?
And if I get accepted, well…talk about dreams come true.
I do know that I'll keep writing, though. I love writing. And I hope this whole majoring in psychlogy thing also helps.
So it all goes down to two things: wish me luck. I need this more than you can imagine (unless if you have experience in writing of course, I'll assume you can).
And secondly, the thing I'm waiting for the most to this moment:
"And the answer is…?"

Produk Asli Dari Toilet

Assalamualaikum wr wb

So! Mari katakan bahwa gue adalah orang yang jorok berdasarkan fakta bahwa gue ngepost ini sambil menikmati duduk-duduk di kloset WC rumah gue yang super inspiratif.
Gue mau sharing dikit lah, kasian juga ini blog lama kaga diupdate. First off, gue lagi ngerjain game baru buat websitenya MPK/OSIS sekolah gue namanya The APS Initiative. Jujur aja, emang sih APS nya gue ngambil dari inisial cewek gue:/ tapi di sini APS itu singkatan dari Agent Practice Simulation. TAPSI ini bentuknya series of challenges gitu. Jadi Stage 1 nya game gunrange FPS, Stage 2 kaya game G21D Arena gue dulu, stage 3 nya mirip2 GeoQuiz, stage 4 kaya The Sims kalo lg ngobrol, stage 5 sama 6 rada2 kaya Brain Challenge nya Gameloft. Iya, sumpah ini game kampret. Gue suka sih, apalagi ini game legacynya cewek gue banget, dan ini pertamakali gue bikin ada cheat di game gue yg sengaja gue tambahin. Interfacenya juga yaaa rada2 plain a la Flash, tp lumayan gue suka. Tapi bikinnya…
Stage 1, ngga ada masalah.
Stage 2, ini paling cepet jadi. Alhamdulillah sekali tembak begitu dites langsung bener, ngga ada error yg berarti.
Stage 3, makan 3 hari lama di kodenya.
Stage 4, gue udah capek mental.
Emang belakangan mental gue lagi gampang dijegal, gatau juga kenapa. Tapi kalo Stage 4 itu emang tai. Ginideh, lo bayangin aja gue mesti bikin reaksi org ketika ditanya ini itu buat game interogasi. Dan gue mesti bikin reaksi2 satu dari cowok dan satu lg dr cewek (yg notabene beda gaya reaksinya). Gue juga mesti bikin pilihan dialog yg bisa diambil. Taigasih w("A"w)
Gue pernah bilang ke cewek gue, mulai Stage 3, game ini bakal lebih lama bikin daripada mainnya (Stage 1 sm 2 lebih lama main drpd bikinnya). Dan ternyata sangat terbukti:")
Gue juga mau berbagi tentang ide kecil gue, tentang suatu saat di masa depan yang cukup deket dimana dunia itu sangat open-minded.
Saking openmindednya, sampe kalo kita bicara sama bayangan kita di cermin, bayangan kita bakal njawab kaya temen ngobrol.
Tapi gue lupa waktu itu ide gue buat konfliknya apaan. Any ideas?
Segitu dulu ajadeh. Wish me luck^^
Cheers!

So one night…

Assalamualaikum wr wb
Gue merasa sungguh nista dan ga tau diri banget nulis postingan jam segini. Ini stengah duabelas dan besok senen. Ngga, besok ngga libur. Tapi gue terdorong untuk posting dikarenakan baru baca post di blog cewek gue yg dia bikin tadi jam sebelas pagi.
Ya jadi gue blind dulu skrg. Bentar.
Oke skrg guetau maungomong apa.
First off, makasih bgtbgtbgt buat semua kerabat sahabat dan kawan2 huwaaaaa you guysss maaf gabisa ngomen ngelike sm bales mention satusatu:") YAK tepat sekali sodara2 ada yg belomlama ulang tahun, baru 26 feb kemaren. Banyak sih yg ngucapin kecepetan (kalo yg ngerasa baca… *ahem) tp secara legal dengan itungan waktu GMT+7 (iya Flo, ini nyindir dikau) yg pertama ngucapin siapalagi kalobukan cewek gue tercinta Alysha Paxia Susilo:")
Sha, janlupa cebok tar kotor kolornya.
Ngga kok cewek gue terakhir boker kemarin. Top bener emang cewek yg satu ini. Bocahnya awet di muka doang. Gue seperti macarin Esther nya Orphan tauga:") bedanya cewek gue baik2 ngga kaya karakternya Isabelle Fuhrman itu.
Wihi Isabelle Fuhrman^^
GAK. Celeb crush gue udah beralih ke Lily Collins *pentingfi
Tp sumpah, Lily Collins cantiknya ekstrim.
So, selain mengumumkan makasih massal, gue mau sedikit curcol dengan bilang gue belom bikin KTP. Tapi scr teknis gue udah legal mbuka yang begituan ihiii~
Terusss Hitam udah jadi. Kelebihan 1 cerita, malah. Yg fix 6 itu AI Untuk Aisha, Bah, Bayang Imajiner, End of the World, Perahu Kertas, sama Reflecto. Iya, End of the World sm Reflecto baru. Di twttr ada kok. Smtr untuk cerita ketujuh gue bingung: mendingan Two Seconds Too Long yg drama psycho semicurcol, apa Outskirts yang dystopian (dan bakal dilanjutin di Inverse)?
Jujur gue lebih suka Outskirts. Tapi rada sayang juga ngedelete kata pengantar yg udah tlanjur gue bikinin buat Two Seconds Too Long. Maknanya banyak men.
Sementara itu gue stuck di tengah nulis The Strange Head of Ezekiel Tomb, Inverse, dan tugas sekolah.
Waththaaaah.
K kayanya itudulu deh. Makasih Allah^^ Makasih Lysha:*

HITAM

Assalamualaikum wr. wb.

Gue ngepost dengan judul Hitam bukan sebagai pelampiasan apa kata orang tentang gue sleama ini, oke? Hitam itu judul buku yang gue rencanain mau jadi kompilasi beberapa cerpen gue.
 Berbagai genre, kalo itu yang mau lo tanya. Ada yang thriller. Ada yang lifedrama. Ada yang bahkan mungkin nggak bisa dikategoriin sebagi cerpen -- lebih kaya karangan kritik sosial yang dikasih subplot dikit-dikit. Padahal mayoritasnya tetep aja ngebahas tentang beberapa hal, malah bukan ceritanya. Ceritanya malah jadi simbolisme embodiment dari konsep yang dibahas.
 Ini covernya:

 

Cerpen yang mau gue masukin ada 7:
- AI Untuk Aisha (ini ada di blog ini, dulu pernah gue post)
- Amnesia
- Bah (aslinya tugas sekolah, tapi ini cerpen sadis pertama yang pernah gue tulis. Thriller)
- Hitam/Lantai 31
- Puisi Sang Raja
- The Stranger On the Bench
- The Whisper
 Yang dua terakhir (The Whisper sm The Stranger On the Bench) itu bahasa Inggris, sisanya bahasa Indonesia semua. Kalo Amnesia, itu yang mau gue angkat jadi film yang gue bahas belakangan ini di blog gue. Hitam/Lantai 31 itu gue bikin sambil emosi. Psycho parah. Sama jadi judul kompilasi ini. AI Untuk Aisha itu drama gagal, kalo mau tau cek aja Archives blog ini, ntar ada post judulnya AI Untuk Aisha.
 Segitu banyak, favorit gue itu Bah. Gak tau, ini udah critical acclaim di antara temen-temen gue yang gue kasi liat. Gue aja nulisnya merinding sendiri, men. Sementara The Whisper itu Hitler-fiction gue. Gue ngebahas anak-anak indigo di sini.
 Masalah gue cuman 1. Cerpen ada 7, yang udah selesai baru 2!-____-"
 Let's only wish mood gue bener kali ini, karena untuk sebuah alesan yang agak nggak jelas, gue berharap yang ini bisa jadi. Lumayan, publisitas pertama boleh nih. Alfi Rizky Ramadhan, psikopat 16 tahun yang hobi nulis.
 Sekian dulu aja. Gue udah desain cover buat sekuelnya, judulnya Putih. Yep, warnanya kebalikannya Hitam ini, tapi fontnya juga gue bedain dikit. Kalo gue udah tau mau masukin cerpen apa aja gue bakal post deh.
 Cheers!

Amnesia Postpone

Assalamualaikum wr. wb.
 Guys, gue ada berita. Produksi Amnesia ditunda.
 Gak jadi rilis tanggal 18 Mei. Pokoknya, di organisasi sinematografi berbasis kekeluargaan gue ini, lagi ada masalah dan ada baiknya gue nggak nyalain percikan api.
 Di samping itu, gue udah ngebikin poster sama wallpaper baru, sekarang dengan gaya tulisan Amnesia yg beda sama ada nama main talentnya. Di bawah juga udah ada creditsnya. Terus di mata birunuya skrg ada gambar-gambar techno techno gmn gitu. Nih:

 Sekarang gue tinggal bisa doa kalo film ini bakal tetep jadi. Men, ini proyek impian gue. Gue kayanya mau reshuffle tim produksinya lagi deh. In case of anything.

 Setelah ini, kalo ada waktu dan izin dari YME, gue mau ngerjain lain lagi judulnya Warisan. Kapankapan gue ceritain :)

 Sekian dulu. Stay positive!

 Cheers,

Into the Titan Latest Cover

Assalamualaikum wr.wb.

 By the way! Gue lupa ngasih update yang ini. Gue udah bikin cover Into the Titan, dan rencana gue, akhirnya yang masuk  itungan beneran bakal jadi cover itu yang ini:

 Yep. Gue gak banyak ngubah Titanic, lautnya, maupun balok esnya.
 Tapi cover ini lebih gelap. Siluet elangnya udah lebih kaya uap gelap. Impian gue tercapai. Terus tulisan Into the Titan nya udah keliatan lebih elit dikit. Ada efek timbulnya lagi. Mayanlah. Powerpoint ternyata boleh juga~
 Wdyt? Kalo ada draft baru gue bakal post di sini. Tune :)

AMNESIA

Assalamualaikum wr. wb.
 Amnesia. Lupa ingatan. Apakah gue amnesia? Ooo bukan bor...Amnesia adalah judul film yang lagi gue kerjain. Genrenya...entahlah. Ada beberapa. Scifi? Thriller? Action? Drama? Ada semua.
 Nah. Soal Amnesia ini. Udah banyak yang nanya ke gue satu pertanyaan simpel yang mungkin juga ada di otak kalian saat ini:
 "Ceritanya gimana?"
 Dua kata itu adalah termasuk susunan kata paling kampret, men. Bukan karena gue pelit. Seandainya gue bisa, gue bakal berbagi tentang cerita ini ke siapapun yg nanyain itu. Masalahnya...
 The story. Is. Too. Complicated. To be told. With a simple. Synopsis.
 Yak. Begini aja. Secara overview. Tahun 2016. Reza terbangun sendirian. Di tengah ruangan nggak tau dimana. Mungkin perpus. Di sebelah dia ada pisau, dan tiga meter di depan, ada badan yg terbujur kaku.
 Tangan Reza berlumuran darah.
 Masalahnya. Reza nggak inget apa2. Dia bahkan nggak inget namanya sendiri.
 Nah. Mayoritas filmnya ini isinya tuh flashbacknya Reza selama perlahan-lahan, secara bertahap, memorinya balik lagi...
 Gue udah ada dua poster buat Amnesia:

 What do you think? XD

 Gue bahkan udah mulai ngerjain fan kit nya. Dengan status gue gak yakin film ini bakalan ada fansnya. Tapi gue nyediain desktop wallpaper Amnesia berdasarkan poster yang pertama:

 Wdyt?
 Di Amnesia ini, gue jadi scriptwriter, director, editor, dan cameraperson. Tapi ada kemungkinan camerapersonnya bakal nambah. Tergantung sang produser.
 Sejarah film ini dan lain2 nyusul kapan2. Untuk saat ini, rencananya kita mau produksi April dan finishing Mei. Minggu kedua Mei harus udah jadi. Amin. Moga bisa.
 Wish me luck, moga jadinya sukses ya :)

HGExperience Series

Assalamualaikum wr. wb.
I'm currently building these games, and I've finished one. The other two are still plans for now, but as soon as I get the chance, I'll work on them.
HungerGamesExperience by justImagine.

- Project: Mercury/TrueHungerGames
An ultimate game of strategy, chance, and survuval based on Suzanne Collins' bestselling novel (and now adapted an epic motion picture) The Hunger Games. Take the role as yourself—who is a Tribute—in this one and only free Hunger Games game where you can feel the intensity of survival in the Arena. Loot the Cornucopia, defeat other Tributes, escape the raging Mutts, make alliances, keep yourself alive, and be a Victor or suffer defeat in the first HungerGamesExperience game where you will experience Hunger Games like never before. May the odds be ever in your favor.

- Project: 99/TrueQuarterQuell
Experience the special Hunger Games established every twenty-five years, the Quarter Quell, featured in Suzanne Collins' second book of The Hunger Games Trilogy, Catching Fire. Same survival, different sets of rules—and ultimately leads to different sets of events. Try to survive in an Arena like never before with random Arena choices where each of them holds a different challenge to beat, plus the random Game rules you may get in combination with the randomized Arena. Will you get a completely drowned Arena while facing twice the number of the normal Tributes, or are you in for an endless blizzard of Mutts and traps with ex-Victors hunting after you? You never know. No two Quarter Quells are exactly alike.
Are you ready?

- Project: Battlefront/TrueMockingjay
Assume the place as Katniss' fellow Mockingjay Rebellion Fighter in this survival/FPS hybrid based on Suzanne Collins' thrilling conclusion to the THG Trilogy, Mockingjay. Avoid traps, use your surroundings to beat Capitol forces, run away or stand up and fight against terrible Mutts, and try to survive against all odds. Ultimately, help Katniss' squad reach the Capitol Central safely for her to assassinate the tyrant. How long can you survive in this battleground?
The fire is catching—and if we burn, you burn with us!

You can enjoy TrueHungerGames at http://thehungergames.6te.net/mercury.php or download the *.exe version at http://thehungergames.6te.net/downloads.php — may the odds be ever in your favor!

Recent Ideas

Assalamualailum wr. wb.
Ceritanya gue lagi banyak ide nih belakangan:
1) BLACK OUT
Tahun 2147, udara di Bumi udah nggak bisa dipake nafas karena kebanyakan akumulasi polusi. ASTRON, organisasi penerus NASA yg hancur tahun 2073, ngirim probe ke Mars.
Tahun 2150, 55% populasi manusia musnah keracunan. Sisanya 45% migrasi ke bawah tanah Mars yg memungkinkan kehidupan Bumi (ini hasil riset ilmuwan beneran loh).
Tahun 2257. Koloni2 manusia di Mars hampir kehabisan energi tahun 2249, tapi konsep yg bernama Energizer yg terdiri dr grup Chargers, Adjusters, sama Routers dieksekusi pemerinta dr koloni Primus u/ semua koloni lain untuk nyelametin manusia dari hidup tanpa energi.
Awalnya Energizers ini sukses. Sampe Chargers mulai terbunuh satusatu di semua koloni.
Gabriel Michaels, Angela Johnson, dan Cole Gerard bakal sadar bahwa waktu mereka nggak sengaja nyingkap rahasia pembunuhan2 ini, mereka terjerumus ke urusan yang salah—salah dan bernilai fatal.

2) Uraeus X
Kalo ini maunya jadi film serial. Tentang orang yg namanya Blake Smith yg bisa liat Uraei (plural dari Uraeus), ular bersayap dr mitologi Mesir. Krn bakat alaminya, Blake direkrut masuk UraeiCorp, organisasi yg tujuan utamanya belajar lg ttg Uraei2 yg gaib ini, ttg bgmn Uraei mengaruhi dunia (byk kejadian2 yg sbnrny diakibatkan Uraei. Misalnya kalo lo bangun pagi dan nggak inget mimpi lo. Ada jenis Uraeus yg namanya Night Flapper Uraeus, nama ilmiahnya Uraeus nocturnica, yg makanannya itu energi lo waktu mimpi. Jd krn emergi mimpi dimakan, mimpinya nggak kerekam di otak wkt bangun). Tapi UraeiCorp ini punya target utama: satu jenis Uraeus misterius yg punya julukan Uraeus X…

Itu dulu. Wml~

Into the Titan cover drafts

Assalamualaikum wr. wb.
Ini bbrp draft covernya Into the Titan. Menurut kalian bagusan yang mana?

INTO THE TITAN

Assalamualaikum wr. wb.
Apa itu Into the Titan? Ke dalam Sang Titan? Maksud?
Gini...itu judul cerita yang gue susun bareng temen2 gue. Into the Titan itu yang bagian gue. Lanjutannya Sky's Fall bikinan SARAH A. R. RADIAN (yang nggak mau namanya diekspos).
Kenapa Kedalem Titan? Mau liat warna kolor Kronos kah? Bukan...SATU jaman itu belom ada kolor dan gue entah kenapa yakin Kronos nggak make kolor. DUA maksud gue Titan di sini itu kapal yang besar dan perkasa kaya Titan, tapi nasibnya tragis (kaya titans juga). Namanya juga mirip. Yak, kapal tersebut adalah RMS TITANIC.
Cerita gue itu tentang Rick, skater umur 16 taun yg pinter dan direkrut dadakan ke organisasi namanya RALPH, singkatan dari Recovery Agency for the Lost and Perfectly Hidden. RALPH ini tugasnya nyari2 kode ke masa lalu dan ngebawa ke masa depan.
Kebanyakan kode yang disimpen di masa lalu itu diancurin sm musuh. Nah ceritanya RALPH itu nyelametin kodenya.
Rick ini dikirim untuk nyari kode yang disembunyiin di Titanic.
Well, itu briefnya. Masih banyak adegan lagi. Taugak yg keren apa? Karena gue pake graphics bikinan gue sendiri di cerita ini entah yang gajelas dan rada nyampah kaya gini:

Sampe yang 3D kaya ini:

Manteb ga? Tapi itu baru beberapa...ada konflik, romance, dan patah tangan di cerita ini. Oia, ada adegan bunuh2nya juga kok. Ah udahlah, namanya juga Secret Agent. Bunuh2an udah biasa, iyaga?

So. Itu review untuk sekarang. Kalo udah jadi gue bakal kasih kabar!

Cheers!

Cornucopia 3D Render

Assalamualaikum wr. wb.

I made this on the purpose to add on the The Hunger Games 3D Arena Preview, but it seems like the project would take a while. Especially with me working on Secrets. So I used the Cornucopia image for the simpler project: HGSimulator (works on web, I'll convert it soon so it would be playable through your Galaxy S :) ). Here's how the Cornucopia looks like:

So...yeah. It kinda suck. But hey, I'm not that good in using 3DStudio Max. And it actually looked good in the application (you can even enter the Cornucopia, not only seeing it from distance. Enter it in the FPS navigation style. But yeah, it's not that much done yet).

However, that's the Cornucopia I'm going to use for HGSimulator. Wish me luck!

Not Yet Titled

Assalamualaikum wr. wb.

Cerita ini udah punya beberapa kandidat nama.
 Yang pertama kepikir ama gue, tema serialnya Secrets.
 Terus ada usulan Unveiling Shadows.
 Ada lagi Revelation.
 Ada lagi...gue lupa.
 Pastinya, ini ceritanya:

Tentang agensi khusus yang bisa ngirim orang balik ke masa lalu untuk nemu kode-kode sejarah yang tersembunyi.
 Misal:
 Rick dikirim ke Titanic untuk nyari dokumen yang disembunyiin di kapal itu sebelum hilang di laut waktu insiden Iceberg Crash,
 Miley dikirim ke Krakatau taun 1883 untuk nyari bunker rahasia di pulau itu dan nyelametin kode sama dokumen2 yg disembunyiin di situ sejak jaman Portugis,
 Terrence dikirim ke perundingan Diponegoro untuk mastiin dimana VOC nyembunyiin harta jarahan Inggris di Indonesia,
 Dona dikirim ke 9/11 untuk nyari kode rahasia dibalik sabotase pesawat itu,
 Sam dikirim ke penyerangan Bizantium untuk mastiin kode di dinding benteng Bizantium bisa diambil dan direkam sebelum Bizantium ancur,
 Dan masih banyak lagi.
 Tiap misi range waktunya sejam, karena kalo telat si agen bakal ikut jadi korban di Mass Death Incident nya.
 Kalo semua kode digabung, rahasia kejadian2 bersejarah di dunia bisa dibongkar sampe ke akar2nya. Di tangan yg bener, ini bisa nyelametin Bumi.
 Di tangan yg salah, ini bisa berarti kiamat.

Gw pengen ngajak tmn2 gue Moeis, Princess, Salsa, sama Sarah buat ikut nulis bareng. Jadi tiap cerita beda gayanya :)
 WML!

Sneak Peek: MYTH JUMPERS - X-FILES

Assalamualaikum wr. wb.
Gue lagi nulis Myth Jumpers kan, nah gue udah ada ide bikin lanjutannya. Isinya data2 ama cerita pendek gitulah. Ini slshstu sneak peek nyaa. Dipotong dr slhstu cerpen yg ada, judulnya Holiday's End.
---
I listened more carefully.
 One, two, three. Three knocks. Tony was right.
 "Go," I said. "Go!"
 Fera ran away so quickly I can barely see her. Tony went underground -- Underworld. James ran after Fera. Laura stayed by my side.
 "Why aren't you running?" I asked her. She smiled.
 "I'm always by your side, remember?"
 "I thought it was just a song lyric." But I have to admit, I am sort of pleased having Laura around.
 Laura raised Chrusos. She isn't to defend. She's to fight. I smiled and raised Silverlight.
 "Let's go," I said.
 We ran to the other side of the alley. I accidentally kicked a paper and realized it was the test questions.
 "Check this out," Laura said as she took a sheet while running. "Benjamin Franklin is known for his kite-and-key experiment that he did in the middle of a thunderstorm. In what year does he did this?"
 "I don't think I know when," I said. "But Franklin is a Thor-Blessed. He won't get shocked in that experiment -- which is pretty much fine."
 Laura laughed. "Right, and who's supposed to be a child of Aphrodite?"
 "Don't ask," I said grimly. My last encounter with an Aphrodite offspring didn't go on so well -- I can only cope with Laura and that's the best already. "I just know that Shaka Zulu's Buffalo Horn tactic is apparently given by Athena through the animals around Africa."
 "And you know that from...?"
 "She told me."
 "Oh."
 We finally reached the door. It was dark outside school. No one is around -- everyone's fled when the storm started striking in.
 "Show yourself," I said. Laura prepared her Chrusos to fight.
 A hooded figure appeared. He held a grip in his right hand and a silver knife in the left.
 The grip glowed and started spreading electricity. I felt the power and took Silverlight into action just in time.
 It shot an electricity bolt. Silverlight managed to disperse it into air. Laura shot to that man, but he suddenly disappeared.
 "Who's that?" Laura asked. I shrugged.
 "Probably a Zeus demigod. Or a Thor-Blessed."
 Then a voice rose, "Or neither."
 We looked back. Another lightning bolt struck me, but this time I have no chance to neither defend nor evade the attack. Laura was hit as well. We flew for several feet backwards when the man disappeared again.
 Where could he be? I looked around but he's nowhere in sight. But then that's when a ball of wind emerged from the air and pushed something -- or someone -- away.
 "Will!" I cried. He's the only one able to do this. Will smiled from the distance.
 "I'm not too late, am I?" he asked. Laura stood up and helped me to get on my feet. She hugged Will.
 "It's a long time," she said. "How's your father?"
 "He's good," Will said. "But -- look out!"
 His sudden warning made its way into my mind quickly and I ducked. Will swung his blade Anemos into where I was and a blast of wind appeared there. The hooded man was thrown away.
 "Let's see who this is," Will said as he forced the hood open. But then Laura gasped and I can feel myself paling.
 The man was headless.
---
Well, that's it for now.

HungerGamesLite

Assalamualaikum wr. wb.

So, gue ceritanya lagi tergila-gila dengan yang namanya The Hunger Games. Karena, demi apapun, itu keren abis.
Ceritanya dimulai di masa depan, ratusan tahun lagi, abis terjadi perang global dan kiamat. Ada koloni yang selamat di Amerika Utara dan mereka bikin negara namanya Panem. Panem ini punya satu Capitol (ibukota) dan 13 Distrik. Karena pemberontakan di masa lalu (yang ngebikin Distrik 13 ancur) pemerintahnya ngasih perintah tiap Distrik harus ngirim satu cowok dan satu cewek yang umurnya 12-18 secara acak untuk ditandingin sampe mati di acara TV The Hunger Games.
Nah, Katniss Everdeen itu warga Distrik 12 (Distrik termiskin). Ayahnya udah meninggal di ledakan tambang lima tahun lalu (Distrik 12 produksi batubara). Jadi dia tinggal sama nyokap ama adeknya. Nah, waktu Reaping (pemungutan) adeknya kepilih. Katniss ngajuin diri untuk jadi Tribute (peserta) untuk nggantiin adeknya. Bareng sama Peeta Mellark, Tribute cowok dari Distrik 12, mereka ke Capitol untuk bertarung sampe mati lawan 22 Tribute lain dari Distrik-Distrik lainnya sampe tinggal 1 pemenang -- 1 yang bertahan hidup di pertumpahan darah anak-lawan-anak.
Kalo udah baca, nggak mungkin deh mau naro dulu untuk ngapain. Dijamin gatel baca terus. My fave author, Rick Riordan, said that this novel has come clearly close to what is called a perfect action novel. And I agree with him!
Nah, saking senengnya, gue bikin game hape Hunger Games. Namanya HungerGamesLite. Di game ini, kita jadi Tribute yang mesti berusaha bertahan hidup lawan Tribtue lain -- berburu, bikin jebakan, rebutan senjata, bikin aliansi sementara -- yang pastinya bakal ada pembunuhan. Tenang, gak ada image yang gory gitu kok :)
Gue juga udah bikin dan bakal gue rilis sekuelnya, namanya QuarterQuellLite. Quarter Quell itu Hunger Games khusus yang diadain tiap 25 tahun sekali. Aturannya beda, dan Arenanya juga. Jadi lebih nantang. Mentornya Katniss sama Peeta, Haymitch, menang di QQ kedua -- Hunger Games kelimapuluh. Di situ, aturannya adalah jumlah Tribute jadi dua kali lipat -- jadi dari 24 naik jadi 48. Dan Arenanya? Tiap aspek di Arena beracun: buahnya, buruannya. Yang bisa dimakan cuma makanan di Cornucopia -- bangunan gede bentuknya kaya Keong Mas di TMII, kaya terompet emas gitu deh. Di sini biasanya bloodbath pertama terjadi.
QuarterQuellLite itu ya kayak Quarter Quell tadi -- aturan acak, Arena beda dari Arena biasanya. Gue nyediain tiga aturan dan tiga Arena. Aturan-aturannya ada Elected Tributes, Twice Usual, sama All Star. Tiap aturan punya efek tersendiri di game. Kalo Arenanya, ada Beautifully Deadly, A Matter of Time, sama Drowned Deep. Mereka juga punya efek sendiri di game. So, dengan kombinasi acak, makin susah kalo main QQLite dibanding HGLite. Udah terbukti di gue -- gue keseringan main QQLite dan pas main HGLite ternyata rasanya gampang banget!
So, that's all for now. Review game sama walkthrough nya kapan-kapan yaaa.

FRICTION Installment

I had the idea for these since practically several months before the 2011 New Year Celebration.

Okay, so I have this idea of FRICTION Installment, consisting the DOWN Tetralogy, FORWARD Trilogy, and LEAP Sequence. In total, there are 12 books.

here are the back cover texts. They also pretty much covered the synopsis. Enjoy! :)

=DOWN=

1) Unconscious

THOMAS Craig was having weird dreams.

 Although normally dreams are weird, but he had always noticed something else.

 Everytime he woke up, his life would return him the tickling sensation of deja vu: he's seen the exact events in his dreams.

 At first, it suits him just fine. But lately, his dreams involved disasters. And they all came true.

 Tom soon realized the fact, and he knew he had to master his dreams before he caused even mroe disasters...

 And ended up losing his loved ones.

2) Deep Thoughts

GABRIELLA Watson is known as the smartest girl and the best puzzle solver at her school.

 Any puzzle, riddle, maze, give it to her: she'll always find a solution. Or put her in a labyrinth without a map. She could always get out.

 But her school itself just became a maze when it fell into the custody of a criminal mastermind and his gang of terrorists.

 The building is soon isolated. No one could get out to find help.

 No one, maybe, except Gabriella -- but only if she can finally find a solution for an impossible maze...

3) One False Impulse

THE Andersons had been unique.

 Margaret, the older sister, could see everything around her that the others can't. While Steven, her little brother, can see past events in the place he's in.

 Lately, Maggie feels like being tailed by someone. Not long after she started feeling so, her parents were murdered.

 Steven checked the murder and stated that the killer wore black cloak and is armed with a golden dagger that's red by blood. With a chill down the back, Maggie said that the mystery man that followed her had the same features.

 Maggie and Steven must uncloak the murderer hiding in their Manor before they fell next victim. Or else...

4) The Thinker's Final Mistake

THOMAS Craig, Gabriella Watson, Margaret Anderson, Steven Anderson. Four different people. Four different gifts. But they had two things in common: one, they've all cheated death swiftly. And two, they've all met Peterson Cahill.

 As a genius who lived for centuries -- thanks to his friend Nicolas Flamel's Elixir of Life -- he created an experiment to enhance human's brain and senses. He tested it on four random samples -- the gifted four -- and the results are astounding.

 Due to his success, Pete tried the experiment on himself. But it grew off control and Pete's no longer himself.

 Knowing the truth, Tom, Gabriella, Maggie, and Steven joined forces to return Pete and keep his inventions off the wrong hands. Before things get worse...

 And, as always, they do.

=FORWARD=

1) Eyes

AMBER Ruth might be blind, but that doesn't stop her from always trying to get her eyes fixed.

 In the meantime, she used her other senses to survive. But she had no idea she was brought into an illegal military program.

 Sightless, consumed in fear, and chased by the program executors, Amber tried to get out and tell the government what really happened. But she is overwhelmed in every corner she turned into.

 Forced to leave the base uncaught and blindfolded, Amber suddenly realized what she's actually capable of.

 But this program ended up giving her normal eyes.

 However, she started doubting if she still want another set of eyes...because the ones she had already witnessed enough without having to literally see.

2)Mirrors

JASON Case suddenly appeared at Anne's party.

 No vehicle. No transportation. Just...appear.

 Anne saw him entering through mirrors and thus knew his secret. She kept things fine. But then Jason accidentally witnessed a murder.

 The murderer noticed him and vowed to chase him to death.

 Jason is an expert in escaping things. But the killer kept his vow, and anywhere Jason goes that will be where the killer is.

 However, Jason had one weak point even he doesn't know: Anne. And, sooner or later, the murderer would know this...and exploit Anne for himself.

3)Lenses

DOM Wilson never had any idea how vital his bloodline is to the world.

 His great grandfather's great great grandfather's father is a legacy of knowledge. He formed the backbone of the modern day science. He brought breakthroughs to the world of mankind.

 But his legacy were all destroyed when one of his inventions fell into the hands of Peterson Cahill.

 Dom explored the world on the purpose to return his ancestor's invention and proved to the world that it's not Cahill that created it.

 But as he journey deeper, the truth started unveiling itself...and, by every piece of puzzle he found, Dom would see that things aren't what they seem.

=LEAP=

1) Rendezvous

THOMAS Craig faced another bitter truth.

 He's mastered his subconsciousness alright, but his girlfriend Catherine Owen left him for "Reasons you won't understand just yet."

 Tom got over her by setting himself to dream of her every night. But somehow those dreams won't come true.

 Apparently Kate had a secret Tom have never known: she is also a test subject, and she escaped from the scientists that tested her. She's a fugitive, and she knew Tom won't be safe anywhere near her. And, with the test ran on Kate, Tom isn't the only one around with gifts.

 She determined to find Tom and explain everything. But her captors are closing in and she had less than a slim chance to ever meet her loved one again.

 Except she managed to master her gifts...which is rather impossible concerning the time she had.

2) Cornered

DOM Wilson finally understood the truth about his ancestor George Wilson. He also understood his life-death rivalry with Peterson Cahill. But he knew he can still clean George Wilson's name.

 He's heard rumors about Cahill testing his latest inventions on random samples. He intended to find them, but he got more than he bargained for: the samples and  Peterson Cahill himself.

 As secrets started leaking, Dom was forced to take a drastic measure: to use the last legacy George Wilson left for his descendants, an invention so powerful that even an insane would have second thoughts to use it...

3) Divided

THE Andersons, Maggie and Steven, found a boy that claimed to be Jason Case stealing their food. He apologized and said he needed food to help cure his sick girlfriend Anne.

 The Andersons softened and frequently letting him in to get him some food.

 But along the time,they started suspecting each other. They've both escaped a brutal killer. They've both had a loved one used by that killer. And an even stranger fact is in: Steven rechecked his parents' murder, and suddenly noticed that there's a witness in the room corner. And it was Jason.

 Apparently the Andersons and Jason had been pursued by a same person. But who is he? How can he be at places at a time?

 But as the question awaited an answer, the suspicion between grew stronger and it's either the Andersons or Jason that'll backstab one another first...

4) Gather

WITH Dom Wilson not being himself, Gabriella Watson suspected something. Her (once blind) good friend, Amber Ruth, thought the same thing.

 Gabriella soon figured out it had something to do with Peterson Cahill. Pete's face only darkened when he heard this news. He simply said, "Then now it's used."

 Gabriella decided to call the other Cahill test subjects, and got more than she bargained for.

 Tom brought his girlfriend Kate who was apparently able to temporarily block or rewrite brain functions, and the Andersons brought along Jason who can teleport through a mirror to another.

 However, nothing is considered safe even with new forces in their party: the Man in Black was back, Dom Wilson is a step closer to his ultimate power...

 And he knew the secret to the newcomers' powers.

5) Destination

PETERSON Cahill knew he was about to lose the war.

 It's a personal rivalry with neverending loath, but since both sides are nature-born geniuses, he figured out that the struggle will eventually spread to the whole world.

 Dom Wilson, the last descendant of George Wilson -- Cahill's Rival -- took the last weapon George left him. A weapon that had totally changed him.

 Dom started over-enjoying his new powers, and Pete and his team knew they had to stop him. A new curtain of tyranny is opening wide, and it's only Pete's team that stood between Dom and the control over the world...
