"HP and the Deathly Hallows" the review

(SPOILER WARNING!
yg blom baca di sarankan jgn baca postingan berikut....ntar nyesel loh wkwkwk)

Wiii akhirnya gw tamat juga baca ni buku........uda dari minggu kemarin si, cuma skrg baru smpet nge-review
Tp diitung” sejak rilisnya tanggal 21 juli kemaren, gw emang rada lelet bacanya *banget*....... n gw dapet scan-nya juga baru bulan agustus....... so it took me about one n half a months to finish the book ^^ *sweat*
Klo boleh menyalahkan, ini gara” jadwal gw yg padat *halah* sehingga gw baru bisa baca pas makan *dont try this at home* ato pas lagi bengong which is keduanya gak sering n biasanya cuma berlangsung slama beberapa menit...

Meanwhile, sminggu sbelom gw dapet scan-nya ato dgn kata lain : detik” awal buku ini diluncurkan, gw smpet browsing dan mendapat spoiler-spoiler ‘kurang menyenangkan’ Lol. Dan akibatnya smpet ada pro-kontra apakah bocoran yg beredar di internet itu asli ato hoax........
Nih contoh pendapat” yg bilang klo bocorannya fake (comments in red) :

Summary Taken from http://community.livejournal.com/its_a_fake

1. there is no hogwart crest in the very first page
mungkin ini sbg pertanda? bahwa selanjutnya Hogwarts bakalan jarang disinggung kecuali pas mendekati Hogwarts battle
2. Harry shattered Sirius' mirror in his own dorm room at Hogwarts at the end of OoTP - yet he is cleaning up the shattered pieces two years later in his room at Privet Drive?
3. Dudley asks his parents why Harry isn't coming with them when they move out of 4 Privet Drive. Why would Dudley care?
emang agak mengherankan sih.lol. tp lucu juga ngelyat Dudley jadi manis begini. Quite cute part though ^^
4. Polyjuice Potion is used to fool the DE - changing everyone into Harry, or into various characters. Polyjuice Potion lasts for one hour - yet no one ever needs to keep drinking it to maintain their changed appearance.
5. When Harry and Hagrid mourn Hedwig's death, neither of them remember that Hagrid gave the owl to Harry - his first ever birthday present.
6. Ginny is described as wearing a "low cut dress" at Bill's wedding. Everyone else is wearing robes - why is Ginny wearing a dress at a wizard wedding?
7. Molly complains that the trio are "dropping out" of school - although since they have obtained their OWLS they are free to leave school anyway
8. Hermione repeatedly refers to the adult characters by their first names - something she has NEVER done. Harry also calls several adult characters, including Lupin, by their first names. He has always called them "Professor".
9. There are numerous new, major characters (such as Luna Lovegood's father) introduced, when JKR has stated there would be no new major characters in this book.
10. The Secret Keeper concept explained in this book is completely contradictory to the concept as explained on Jo's own website. And it is explained differently on two occasions within this book. 12 Grimmauld Place can't be used as Phoenix headquarters because supposedly everyone in the Order is now a Secret Keeper. But then when Harry visits Godric's Hollow, he says that the secret of its location died because his parents died (although Pettigrew is the keeper of that secret).
11. Snape is supposedly made Headmaster at Hogwarts - and appoints Amycus and Alecto, the odd looking twins seen in HBP as teachers. Amycus teaches DADA. Is it plausible that Snape - who values education anyway - would appoint those particular DE?
12. Is it plausible that McGonnagal would continue to work at Hogwarts after it falls under DE control?
13. The Resurrection Stone, an object with magical properties that the trio find, is very similar in description and purpose to a Resurrection Stone used in some sort of comic book about skrulls or something (Google "Resurrection Stone, you'll see).
14. In the beginning of the book, Voldemort asks Draco if he recognizes the Muggle Studies teacher. Why would Draco, a muggle hater, have ever taken Muggle studies at pre-DH Hogwarts?
15. Not JKR's writing style at all; it reads like bad fanfiction in parts, especially in description.
no comment dah, baru pertama kali baca HP versi english sih.....huhu
16. Snape's memories flowing out of their own accord after he dies. What is that.
17. nconsistencies in character details and characterization, e.g. Lupin's silly dialogue and Dumbledore's magical change in hair color.
18. Time inconsistencies. Lupin's kid should be nineteen in the epilogue, he shouldn't still be attending Hogwarts. Also, it would be impossible for Tonks to give birth within the book's time frame.
19. The names are really dumb. Xenophilius Lovegood, Scorpius Malfoy, Albus Severus Potter, and apparently the new Minister of Magic's named "Thicknesse." No.
ah nama Dumbledore juga aneh koq =P
20. The tracking spell whenever anyone says Voldemort's name. It's inefficient, makes no sense, and would be impossible to execute.
21. The radio show. It doesn't prove anything, but it's just silly.
22. If it was real, the news would be HUGE. This is a big book, people. If it was really leaked, it would be much bigger than some fandom frenzy.
23. Ron says, at the Weasley dinner table, "Merlins saggy left..." and the Weasley parents cut him off.
emh…trus kenapa? what ‘saggy left’ actually means? Sori gw bner” gatau…lol
24. I have many reasons to believe that this leak is a fake, but to be honest the biggest was, for me anyway, that it just didn't feel like her writing. Something was just 'off' about it. I've read the series more times than I can count. I've studied it on the university level and have helped teach undergrads the series with my thesis advisor. And, though less of a credential, I've written so much fanfic which I have always tried to match up with canon as much as possible...though not always...so more studying of her work. (Hell, I even have a fic archive site...yes, I'm *that* girl...LOL!) I know Rowling's writing. Not saying I'm an expert but I know her 'voice.' And though the leak is very, very Rowling-ish, its not her.
When I read this, however, I was convinced it was a fake.
tp kenyataannya asli tuh.....believe it or not....
25. Plus, Hermione calling Ron an 'arse' when throughout the series she's admonished him for cursing. Hell, even when she slapped Malfoy (and she was pretty hacked off then)she didn't curse.
agree. this part also seems too weird for me
26. The OCCness of Lupin
27. being a muggle hater
28. The utterly opposite explanation of the Secret Keeper bit of GP. (Moody explaining to Harry why they couldn't go there)
29. The fact that Voldemort would ever admit he was wrong about anything (first chapter)
30. The killing of a character we've never heard of (Muggle studies teacher)
sbenernya (katanya) ada koq di buku ke 1 ato ke 3 gitu……..gw juga lupa sih hehe
31. Hermione's reaction to the Minister...even if she knew she was right she'd never speak to him that way
32. Ron's birthday gift to Harry. (I have read this in only about 654657984984 fics)
33. Ron's confidence around Hermione (not a real reason, but that just seemed off to me)
34 ."THE TRACE" come on
35. The fact that so many questions were left unanswered
36. The fact that the 'epilogue' only told us what happened to Harry, Ginny, Ron, Hermione, Neville, Hagrid and Draco when Jo said we'd find out what happend to 'everyone who survived.' So what? These are the only survivors?
37. Molly screaming "YOU ~censored~" to Bella. *snort* Its like a bad action movie
halah di sensor segala, dy triak "YOU B*TCH" kan? hwehehe
38. Albus freakin Severus
maksutnya freakin di sini... = gay? oh no.....
LOL I could go on and on forever.

Tulisan di atas smpet membuat gw yakin klo bocoran yg beredar tuh emg fake….tp stelah itu gw lyat spoiler lainnya di wikipedia which is ga jauh beda dgn yg ini, mau gak mau gw harus yakin klo ini emang hasil karyanya JKR…hiks
FYI, spoiler di wikipedia tuh ga tanggung” loh, sampe ada tabel berisi daftar siapa aja yang mati, siapa yang bunuh, gimana caranya, sampe waktu kejadiannya…..*waks*
Tp waktu kemaren gw lyat di wiki uda ga ada tuh, mungkin uda di edit demi ketertiban umum kali….Untung gw uda sempet nyimpen file-nya di kompie hehe

fave part:
1. Aunt Petunia sobbed and praised Dudley for saying thank you instead the fact that he just said that Harry wasn’t a waste of space…….This made Hestia wonder and argued her. But Harry explained "Yea but coming from Dudley that's like 'I love you,". ROFL. really XD
2. Mrs. Weasley kill Lestrange
3. When 7 peoples change their appearance like Harry, using polyjuice
4. Lupin married Tonks


Bad part:
5. sikapnya Lupin tuh ngga banget deh, masa dy jd pengecut gitu….. just not like one of my fave charas...
6. instead of fifth point, gw juga kecewa knp Lupin ma Tonks matinya gitu doank.....gak ada penjelasan sama sekali. padahal kematian Dobby aja dibahas bgt
7. bagian Hermione kissing Ron *yap. bukan Ron kissing Hermione*. gak napa” sih, cuma rada ganggu aja........soale mreka ngelakuinnya di saat yg gak tepat *sweat*
8. epilogue-nya kejauhan......19 years old later? Knapa seblomnya gak diceritain dlu sehari setelahnya keq, dua hari keq…….kan cerita tokoh” yg tersisa jadi gak komplit…… gmn kabarnya George, Luna, Rita Skeeter *gw pengen dnger dy di Azkaban*, Cho, Dean, Seamus, dsb….?

kekecewaan lain yg bersifat pribadi :
9. kematian Lupin n Fred
10. kenyataan bahwa Dumbly n Sirius emg bener” uda mati……huwaaaa gw pikir di HP terakhir ini mreka bakal muncul lagi, dgn alasan kematian mreka hanyalah taktik untuk menjatuhkan Voldie…….*ngayal.com*
11. HP bner” uda tamat……hehehe skrg uda ga ada lagi deh buku yg gw tunggu” rilisnya…..

overall HP 7 ini cukup bagus lah…tp ga cukup bagus untuk buku terakhir IMO……
so HP and the Goblet of Fire still the best for me! =D (Read the rest...)

Bad day...

Sbenernya agak zalim (halah) juga klo gw bilang hari ini hari sial gw, tp yang jelas, ni hari kegiatan gw ga berjalan sesuai harapan…
Pertama, pagi ini entah penyebabnya gw emang lagi ga enak badan ato AC-nya kedinginan, yang jelas pas di mobil gw ngerasa mual abis….bayangin betapa leganya gw ketika sampe di parkiran fasilkom, buka pintu mobil, dan menghirup sedalam”nya udara nan sejuk n segar di bawah pohon rindang (halah…)
Kedua, waktu tutorial DDP tadi sore…
Sperti biasa, ada tugas membuat program, dan awalnya semua berjalan mulus tanpa kesulitan yang berarti… sampai program gw udah mau slese, tinggal 1 kondisi lagi yang harus dipenuhi, yaitu apabila user memasukkan huruf sembarang, program harus bisa menolaknya *ngerti ga bahasa gw? Klo ga ngerti ya udah…*
Pokoe, gw stuck sampe kira” jam stengah 5, hinga akhirnya datanglah salah seorang teman yg jago banget ngoding *sampe” dia dijuluki pak sesepuh* dan memberi petunjuk…….
Jam 5, kedua tmen gw yg laen, yunita n wulan, uda berhasil mengaplikasikan (halah) petunjuk yg diberikan pak sesepuh, tinggallah gw yang belom berhasil dan belom menemukan di mana letak kesalahan kodingan gw….
Ngomong”, mreka uda ngupload tugas mreka ke scele (web-nya anak fasilkom, red) which is di sana tertera tulisan kapan deadline ngumpulin ni tugas….yang jelas sih bukan hari ini
Karena uda jam 5 lewat, gw memutuskan untuk shalat ashar dulu dan melanjutkan ngoding setelahnya… “toh deadline-nya bukan hari ini” begitu pikir gw. untung wulan berbaek hati mo jagain tas *n kodingan* gw, n gak kan pulang sbelom gw slese…..*hiks baik skali dirimu, wul*
Di mushala, seselesainya gw shalat, seorang temen gw nanya “kamu ga pulang?” gw jawab “mo ke lab dulu, tugas blom slese”
Tmen gw itu lgsug masang muka kaget “eh bukannya uda tutup?” dan seorang tmen gw yang laen nimbrung “batesnya jam 5 seperempat loh, try”
Gw langsung ngelirik jam yg menunjukkan jam stengah 6 kurang….JGERRR…! rasanya sperti ada geledek menyambar *ya gak sebegitunya juga sih*
gw cuma menanggapi “oh masa?” padahal dalem hati gw… @#$%^&*?!?!?!?
Sesampainya di lab, wulan n yunita ternyata lagi pada sibuk miskolin gw, n pas ngeliat gw mreka lgsung bilang “gmn nih try, uda tutup….”
tp tetep, gw cuma ngangkat tangan dan dgn berusaha setenang mungkin ngejawab “oh ya udah gpp…” skali lagi, dalem hati sbenernya gw lagi *&^%$#@%
Guess what? Ternyata tepat pas gw baru keluar lab menuju mushala, asdosnya bilang klo batas pengumpulan di ubah jadi jam 17.15 wib! Selebihnya, tempat bwat ngupload akan hilang…what the…
Wulan n yunita lgsug brusaha nawarin solusi
y: ”kirim aja ke e-mail asdosnya...
gw: ” ga bisa, program gw masi salah”
w: ”ato ngga lo pake kodingan gw aja nih...”
gw: ”.....ga usa deh..... ya sudah lah gw ga usa ngumpulin”
w: ”tapi sayang try...”
gw:”........=(........”
*Duh lo pada baek bgt sih...* tp gw ga enak aja klo ngopi kerjaan lo berdua....
Smentara itu, gw nrima sms yg isinya klo kaka gw mo jemput gw di tol n dy udah on the way dari tadi..... dgn kata lain gw uda harus cpet” balik nih! Tp tugasnya......?
Di tengah” kebimbangan, untungnya (meskipun lab uda sepi) ternyata masi ada beberapa tmen gw yg blom smpet ngupload n mreka lagi berusaha ngirim email ke asdosnya..... tanpa buang” waktu untuk bertanya ”emang bisa?” gw langsung minta alamat e-mail si asdos dan buru” cabut.....
Rencana gw, yang penting jgn sampe kaka gw nunggu lama” (bisa ngamuk dy), trus sesampainya di rumah gw coba lagi untuk nyari di mana kesalahan program gw, baru kemudian dikirim ke email si asdos.....
Dan skitar 2 jam yang lalu, akhirnya tugas yg bikin gw kalang kabut itu berhasil (meskipun ga sempurna) n uda gw kirim......entah lah bakal di terima ato ngga, yang penting uda usaha......huhuh ^^;
Btw, gw tadi buka puasa di jalan......di bwah cahaya remang” lampu angkot, hanya bertemankan sebotol nu green tea, dan dikelilingi penumpang” yg gak gw kenal (yg juga lagi pada sibuk makan)..... rasanya?
......pahit.....(secara gw juga lagi gondok mikirin DDP)
......sepi......
.....sedih bgt......
Wkwkwk hiperbola ah
Yang jelas ni bukan pertama kalinya gw buka di jalan loh, seblum”nya uda pernah, tapi di mobil bokap gw sih....dan stidaknya ada kurma n biskuit.....heheh jadi yg kali ini rasanya ’beda’ aja gitu.....


Fakta tidak penting hari ini:
Seorang teman bilang, taun ini rata” nilai nasional SPMB anak IPA dibanding anak IPS menurun (yg di ui loh) ........which means anak” pinter banyak yg larinya ke bidang IPS.......
Oh pantes gw bisa masuk fasilkom......;P (Read the rest...)

berita hari ini

haaaaaaaaaahhhhhhh……..gila ga tau napa gw akhir” ini ngantuk bgt…….
pulang tarawih, boro” belajar, buka buku aja ga sempet………hiks
di kelas juga, bawaannya pengen tidur mlulu >< n dikit” nguap.....hoahhm
n barusan gw nyelesein demo asdos pertama gw.........untung berjalan dgn cukup lancar n ga ditanyain yg aneh” huhu
ngomong” hari ini gw menemukan beberapa fakta tidak penting:
- uda dua hari kemaren gw buka puasa di jalan....ga cuma gw doank sih, tp bokap gw juga.....ni gara” dy jemput gw ^^; jadi gak enak nih.....
lusa kemaren gw cuma buka pake aqua gelas ma permen kopiko, lol *sedih bgt sih* besoknya untung bokap gw uda m’persiapkan kemungkinan yg ada......di mobil uda ada kurma ama biskuit.....ya lumayan lah wkwkwk
eh tp, hari ini gw buka di rumah koq
- kemaren gw melihat 2 makhluk yg sangat lucu loh.....pas berangkat gw lewat depan rumah tetangga gw n ngelyat kucing anggora, bulunya item tebel, bersih, cute bgt deh pokoe....^^ tp dy diiket gitu di pager.......wajar sih sbenernya, gw juga gak mau kehilangan binatang piaraan yg lucu gitu....
kedua, waktu pulang sperti biasa gw ngelewatin kampus fisip, nah di situ ada anak bayi yg masi keciill bgt, n dy gendong *ato lebih tepatnya ’nenteng’* anjing yg gak kalah keciiiiilll-nya. Tampang anjingnya ky buldog, tapi bulunya tbel..........ga tau deh itu anjing jenis apa........yg pasti pas anak itu jalan, dy ngejatohin anjingnya, trus tu anjing jalan kucluk kucluk......hoho how cute...^^
*sori klo bagi lo ini ga kedengeran lucu sama skali, gw emg ga bisa mendeskripsikan sesuatu*

Ok, sekian dari gw, untuk hari ini
See yaaaah! (Read the rest...)

ga terasa uda bulan ramadhan...

Hari ini uda mule puasa loh………Alhamdulillah taun ini gw bisa ktemu lagi ma bulan ramadhan….. bisa ktemu lagi ma suasananya yang khas misalnya : anak” komplek yg berisik bgt klo bangunin orang sahur, n penuh-nya mesjid pas lagi solat tarawih ampe ibu” pada gelar tiker di jalanan…….hoho

Tadinya gw ragu mo bikin resolusi apa ngga……secara taun kemaren yg gw rencanain banyak yg gak terlaksana spenuhnya alias ngemeng doank… huhuhu tp itu mungkin karna rencana” tsb cuma muncul sekelibat di otak gw n ga pernah gw catet….
So kali ini mo gw post di sini supaya gw bakalan lebih inget n lebih termotivasi bwat ngewujud-in smuanya ^^……Amiinn

Yang baru kepikiran skarang sih :
- Abiz saur ga boleh molor lagi……. Siangnya bisa lemes soale….. sembari menunggu bisa diisi dgn kegiatan nonton tv, baca, bowsing, ngaji, ngerjain tugas, belajar (halah sok rajin), ngepel lantai, nyikat wc…rofl
Ya pokoe gpp lah siangnya ngantuk dikit daripada lemes
- pulang shalat tarawih jangan ngemil…. Ya dikit” boleh lah, tp tar berat badan yg uda berkurang selama siang hari bisa nambah lagi tu…….gmn sih katanya mo turunin 10 kilo! (ngarep)
- shalat usahain tepat waktu n jgn mepet” pas uda mo abiz
- baca Al-Quran sehari minimal……..hemm 10 hlmn dulu deh, bisa ngga ya...?
- shalat tarawih jangan males!
- kurangin ngegosip…. untung anak” fasilkom kynya ga doyan gossip deh *klo yg doyan homo sih banyak…ups*
- jangan lupa qiyamul-lail…..

minimal setengah dari target gw harus tercapai! *smangat*
n yang plg penting, mudah”an slese ramadhan gw gak ngelupain ini smua n justru lebih ditingkatkan lagi….! (Read the rest...)

gw ngekos gak yah??

pernah dnger gak ada orang mabuk kendaraan....? *hari genee*
tp ini terjadi ma gw...huks
akhir" ini klo gw nebeng ma mobil kaka ato bokap gw, pas turun tuh rasanya campur" antara eneg, mual, mules, n kliyeng"an (pusing-red)....
nah sebaliknya.....klo gw naek angkot, bis, ato koasi (koperasi angkutan bekasi-red) malah gak kerasa apa"....nah lo!
*kampring gak sih gw.....*
mnurut spekulasi gw sih (halah spekulasi) ini karna efek AC yg ada di mobil...... scara biasanya klo di rumah, smaleman tidur ama AC bikin gw paginya lgsg bengek, pilek, etc.....
*smakin kuat lah bukti bahwa gw kampring.....lol*
padahal klo naek kndaraan umum, ga ada AC yg kerasa, yg ada malah serasa di-sauna, bau" tidak sedap campuran antara buah duren dan amonia (guess what it likes) angin cepoi-cepoi juga kadang" saja ada...

lalu apa hubungannya dgn ngekos? hoh jelas ada.......
sejak awal gw memutuskan untuk tidak ngekos karna kaka gw yg anak fib pulang pergi ke kampus pake mobil........sayang toh klo tidak 'dimanfaatkan'? bayangin aja ongkos tol uda 6000 blom ditambah bensin....... klo cuma untuk mengangkut satu orang doank (which is kaka gw) kan rugi tuh.....jadilah gw tetep di rumah supaya bisa pulang pergi bareng dy
two always better than one, right? *alasan yg maksa.....*

tp ternyata waktu lah yang memisahkan kita
maksud gw, anak fasilkom tingkat pertama biasanya mulai kuliah jam 8, pulang jam 5
smentara kaka gw terkadang cuma mpe jam 2, ato bahkan baru mulai jam 10 n jam 12 uda pulang *najong enak bgt*

jadilah ujung"nya terkadang gw pulang naek kendaraan umum yg dimulai dr T19 dilanjutkan 9B dilanjutkan lagi dengan K02 di mana keseluruhan proses tsb bisa makan waktu mpe 2 stengah jam.....
pulang" gw mabok, cape berat, ngantuk, dan tak sanggup bahkan untuk menengok ke arah buku 'C How to Program Fourth Edition' softcover seharga 90k dgn tebal skitar 125o halaman dan berat 2 kg (bner koq, uda gw timbang)

terkadang gw jadi mikir "sampe kapan gw bgini terus...?" ; kumul - kumul: kuliah-mulur-kuliah-mulur (sori klo maksa)....
mungkin skrg baru awal" n tugas blum terlalu banyak......... tp bgaimana pas uda pertengahan smester di mana (katanya) tugas akan berdatangan sperti badai?
kan ga mungkin gw terus jadi deadliner yg baru bangun jam 3 pagi untuk melaksanakan 'perjuangan di detik" terakhir'?
sks won't work today..........

kesimpulan : gw masi bingung, so let time decide....... (Read the rest...)
