What it takes to make a blog?

Yes, now it's exactly 23.30 in my country timezone

I can't sleep, and i have just watched Captain America, only to find out his history

by the way, it wasn't a great movie. 3/5 for me.

By the way, i've changed my template, and changed my blog appearance a little bit

thanks to  efflorescencedream ;)

Okay, back to the title

a question

What it takes to make a blog?

For me, it's simple

This

mine doesn't glowing like that

and THESE

FYI, i was not being robbed

hahahaha, what would you expect? that is my computer desk. well, i know it's a little bit messy... a lot maybe, but i don't get a hard time to use my laptop, so... i don't care ~

As you can see, the 'core' of that desk is the laptop, asus N43SL, you can check the spec on its website, i won't explain it here, it will makes this post 'un-original'

My mouse, i've already explain it in this post

My keyboard is a logitech, the wireless one. My favorite keyboard, although it's very dirty and the hand lap (i don't know what its name) often loose, because it's wireless ~

i don't have to sit straight to type, i can sit relax on my chair, and put the keyboard on my lap, moreover i can type whenever i want, so efficient right ;)

On the right side we see a hat from 9th grade, a printer -HP-, and a half terra external hard disk (500GB sounds plain, but half terra sounds wow! hahaha)

On the left side we see a modem for the super slow ISP 'speedy', couple of badges i got from 12th grade's award, and many cables. Those cables are contains of 3 chargers (my phone, this laptop, and for my iPad) and 2 power source for modem and printer

under my little wood 'podium', there are... i don't remember, lets say they are treasures. haha :P

ah, there's a thing that quite odd from that picture? maybe that wood place for my laptop?

Yes, it was made by my worker, because if i put my laptop on my desk, i have to bend down to see the monitor clearly, and it will give me a backache. Better this way. Towel below it so it won't get scratched :)

So folks, i think that's all for now

If you have some good blogs, please give the link in the comment

i'm kinda bored in the night, because i have nothing to do, in this super long holiday :|

my new hobby is read a blog though  :P

see ya ;)

Movie Review: The Avenger. Not as strong as god, nor as weak as human

As i've already said on the previous blog, i watched  

The Avengers

Hulk is not that big

 

STORY

The Avengers is a group contains of various "superhero". There are Iron Man (Tony Stark), Thor, Black Widow (Natasha Romanoff), Nick Fury, Hulk (Bruce Banner), Hawkeye (Clint Barton), Captain America (Steve Rogers). Nick Fury tries to gather them under S.H.I.E.L.D organization to take back the Tesseract (Material from space which is an unlimited energy source) which is stolen by Loki (Thor's Brother)

It was a great story. Although my favorite story is the complicated one, but i think that kind of story won't fit this kind of movie, got it?

The story is quite simple, but not as simple as Fast five. Moreover this movie has many jokes which are funny! (seldom happens in movies)

ACTING

Robin from HIMYM :P

Robert Downey Jr. a.k.a Tony Stark a.k.a Iron Man

It's Flawless. I have no further comment. They showed their capabilities as great actors-actresses. Tony Stark still be my favorite character, billionare, philanthropist, genius, and playboy. Robert Downey Jr. did it very well.

Audio Video

Who is farting?

Both of them were breathtaking! Although i heard a piece of song which didn't fit the scene, but it was only 2 or 3 seconds.

The Graphic was marvelous! Joss Whedon as director succeed to entertain the audience with future technology graphic, as we seen on Stark's tower and even those aliens were hi-tech. Maybe this movie didn't show off their graphic details like Transformers, but i think it's not neccessary, because The Avengers has much much better story than TF (especially TF3 *vomit)

Overall 

For me, it was the greatest superhero movie i've ever seen. It had great story, amazing casts, great graphic. Definitely the biggest movie this year, i know it's still May :P

Another aspect why i like this movie is the gods. They aren't so powerful, are they? Although they can't be hurt by humans, even Hulk, but they can't destroy the entire human in instant as well. Loki numbed sometimes when got hit by giant gun, or smashed by those superheroes. So it's not impossible to get rid of him.

The Jokes! HAHA, even though i wasn't laugh hard, it's still funny (Yeah, i rarely laugh when see a movie). The jokes are funny because it is funny, not because somebody did something fool to another man. It flowed naturally.

One thing which i didn't like, is the hi-tech aliens. It's beyond my expectation, not in a good way though. At first i thought that the aliens will be like monster with great claws, strong jaws, scary teeth etc, moreover their name is Chitauri, isn't it like an old names? I was a little disappointed when they showed up riding motorcycles like in TF3 (*vomitagain) and instead of killing barbarically, they shot with guns --"

Yes, they're the Chitauries

If you want to watch this movies with its full potential. You must watch some of the Avengers solo movie - Captain America : First Avenger ; Iron Man 1 and 2, contains of Iron Man, Nick Fury, and Black Widow ; Hulk and Incredible Hulk ; Thor, contains Thor and Loki -. I didn't watch Thor and Capt. America because i read the review and they said those 2 movies were shits, but now i want to watch them, just to improve my knowledge about their history, especially Thor! because i think it's different version than the Europe's god history which is i know.

CMIIW, i saw Stan Lee, one of the author of Marvel, in The Avengers. When the battle ended, the camera taken shot for people's comment. Stan Lee was sitting on the park bench with another man, he turned back and said "Superhero in New York? Impossible!" hahaha, that's joke for everybody who know him :P

The "Real" Superhero - Stan Lee

Well then, i think that's all. This is my first full movie review. Sorry for bad english and bad review, tell me what should i improve on poll section on the sidebar. bye folks ;)

fuck yeah!

Game Review: Blades of Time. It cuts my holiday's time

Good day folks ;)

Just like all of my friends, after we finished the final exam ( called UNAS in my country ) we have a looooong holiday, according of what time our college start. Me? If everything goes well, i think i will start on late September this year, pray for me, yes? ;)

Meanwhile, to protect me from boredom, i really need something fun. Not a job, not a trip, but just an activity that fill my spare time

For me, it's a new game B)

After years and years i've played DotA, sometimes i feel bored though, i need to find a new game!

and i found this!

Yeah this fun game called

 Blades of Time

STORY

the story is quite simple, hmm... i think is about a woman named Ayumi ( yes its developer is Konami, japan corporation ) and her companion Zero went to a placed called dragonland to find the treasure, and there they must faced many enemies called skyguard, and whatsoever.... I prefer game which give a simple story and simple dialog rather than complicated story and too many dialogs, such as dragon age

GAMEPLAY

The gameplay is more or less like Devil May Cry. Its genre is hack-and-slash action. So, you just click your mouse to... hack-and-slash. Its very simple and easy to play, even for a non-gamer player. Is it just a sword playing style? Nah, it will be boring. This game has some magic spells (until now i've discovered 3 magic) and right click for kicking your enemies' ass

the main feature of this game is the backtrack time. It shows your copy character and she doing exactly the same of what have you done before, and your copies are infinity, as long your time meter is not empty, cool isn't it? It's hard to mastered though

VIDEO AUDIO

For the sound, it's like regular game, nothing special. The sub is british, and her intonation is HORRIBLE, she give no expression at all ! Geez... totally ruined my ears

For the graphic, quite good for 2 - 3 GB game. yeah more or less like DMC i think.

along with this game, i had also bought this cool mouse

quite cool isn't it? ;)

It is a mazer type-R from e-blue. I think its not a famous brand for gaming headgear. I know this brand from my friend who also has this mouse, but higher class than mine. Its price is Rp. 165.000 or $20. Why i replaced my old mouse? well, my old mouse is too little for my hand, it made my right hand always bent, tiring sometimes, and it was dirty (well, i know it's my fault ._.)

Although this mazer is quite heavy, i still love it! maybe that blue lights hypnotized me, lol.

i think this is the end of this post. I must get ready to Grand City Mall to see The Avengers. My birthday friend will treat me :P

See ya ;)

Why Solar Plexus ?

phew... starting a new blog is a tiring act, isn't it?

well, i start to write again although i still don't know whether this blog will 'alive' for a long time or not, hahaha

at first, it was a confusing moment when i had to choose a blog title. Mine was brainstorming, while it's not a good thing to use that name again. New life, New name

Soooo, why i choose "Solar Plexus" as my new blog's title?

well... i like that. Yes, that's the only reason, at first.

Then i learnt again about its meaning. Well, Solar Plexus means 

'neural networks in abdomen, located exactly in front of aorta, behind stomach, contained of ganglia which send nerve pulse. Some said that solar plexus is the "real heart" / center of feelings'

Quite deep huh?

don't believe it? 

look at that tiny no.5

Yes, i get that words from a novel. A very great novel, called "Supernova". This series is a hexalogy, that means it will have 6 novels.

That photo was taken from the first novel titled "Ksatria, Puteri, dan Bintang Jatuh"

this is the 8th edition cover, on December 2008

( it's my favourite novel ). It tells about... i can't explain here, it's too complicated, just read by yourself, kay? ;)

FYI, those tiny numbers 4 and 5 are the footnote, while the story itself written in that bigger fonts. Footnotes explains us about a difficult word written in that novel. If you already read that footnote and still confuse, imagine you're reading the whole novel. hahahaha...

Back to the topic, why i choose that name? After thinking for couple minutes, i found that, i wanted to made this blog as a representative of my thoughts, moreover, as my real heart. So, many of my posts will be pure original from my brain.

I think that's it for now. This post maybe still rough, and my english is so bad. I hope the future me will fix it :P

First Post!

It's been a while from my last blog... saxiel.blogspot.com
is a year counted as 'a while'? hahaha

doesn't matter, enjoy :D
