Plano In Action

Planofest

Last saturday, 18th October 2014, Planofest was held in Ngarsopuro. Planofest was the main event from Plano In Action. Plano In Action is an annual event from HMPWK May Virida, the student association of PWK UNS. 

The guest star were : Jungkat-Jungkit, Bimanada, Onevcer Dance, Minus Percussion, Traditional Dance from FSSR UNS, and Finalists from Accoustic Competition. The show was outstanding, there was so many people gathered there and the weather was great too. The event started at 06.30 pm and ended at 11.00 pm.

I think the show was successful but i found that trash can was pretty hard to found around the venue. Maybe the committee for next event will considers this issue. Speaking of the guest stars, i personally think they were great performer but the one that actually caught my attention was Jungkat-Jungkit. Jungkat-Jungkit are a duo from Solo. Their members are Adis as vocalist/guitarist and Said as guitarist. They were using only accoustic guitar at the event but the sound that they were produced actually pretty rich, not to mention that the vocalist had an unique voice too.

Well i hope Planofest will gain more popularity and manages to creates an event that more outstanding than this year's event.

New Single From HBC48

Two Original Songs

Remember my band HBC48? We have new member, Leo, as vocalist and we have logo too. After a very long time just jamming together, finally we have our own song. We wrote two songs which are "Elegi Realita dan Harapan" and "Bertahan Tanpamu". 

Elegi Realita dan Harapan is a song about a man who realise that he can't force his feeling to the woman and if he really care about the woman then seeing her being happy is enough for him.

Bertahan Tanpamu is like the sequel from previous song, the man have to move on from the woman who is very dear to him but he just can't forget her that easily.

I personally think these songs are good but we cannot afford to record this song in a proper way, just using simple sound recorder though. So i apologize if the result isn't good enough. Well i hope you'll enjoy our songs.

Let's Try Something New

First Design

My major is Urban and Regional Planning, it means i'm study mostly about planning, city, and everything around them. We do use software to make our task easier or to visualize it. There are so many software that we can use such as Geographic Integrated System GIS) or Sketchup. Actually my major mostly use GIS but i do more attracted to sketchup because this software can visualize in 3D (GIS can do this too but i think Sketchup more user-friendly).

I'm learning how to use Sketchup by watching tutorial in YouTube or looking for some literature about it on  the web. After sometimes i decided to created city block with Sketchup. It's pretty massive task to do because usually Sketchup was used for more detailed job with smaller scale, but the good side was because i was planning to create city block, detail was the last thing i should worry of. The area was 0,42 kilometres squared. It took me about two weeks before my project was finished and about 45 minutes to be rendered for each view. I called it Project Goddam City because someone told me to, thanks for the name by the way.

It's still far from perfect but i'm proud of it. Do you like it people?

Looking Back In Time

Since Last Time

It has been almost one year since my last post here in my blog. A lot of thing has happened since then. Now i'm officially graduate from my university. I've been doing some project with my friends, some of them were "Perencanaan Kawasan Malioboro" and "Desa Lestari Berkelanjutan". Too bad that none of  them won the competition but still the experience itself was enough. I'm still looking for my first job though, and apply for scholarship to continue my study abroad.

And for my band, HBC48, we had to pause our activity since our guitarist had to work in the another town. I can play guitar now a little bit and i hope it can improve my bass playing. I think my band was getting better in the last few month but it's too bad that we have to pause our activity. Since it's just a hobby so soon or later this will happened anyway. Maybe i will post our performance next time.

Right now i am trying to pursue career in Bappenas and at the same time still looking for scholarship abroad. Well let's just hope for the best for now.

Once In A Year Tradition

Another Side

Today i've got surprise from my friend. They've thrown water, flour, even milk to me. Luckily i managed to dodge some of them so i only got minor damage ~LOL~. They do that because last sunday, i celebrated my birthday and it's some kind of tradition that person who celebrated their birthday must receive some kind of punishment just like i mention earlier.

Today i'm lucky because they just use flour, water, and milk. Sometimes people just doing over the limit by throwing things that really disgusting that i can't mention here. Because of this, despite flours are all over my body and my bag, i'm not disturbed. It's just like their way to express how they care about to their friends.

But let's we give a little though about it. Do we really care about how is the person feel to get things thrown over their body? Do we aware that maybe we can ruin their clothes, their shoes, their belonging? What if the person have appointment that they need to look neat and because of our action, that person looks terrible for that appointment. Think about consequence from our action. And to make it worse, they are asked to treat the person who throw them all of this things.

I personally not agree to this kind of tradition. I do understand this tradition is some way to express how we care about our friends. But is it really have to be like this? We can make it better WITHOUT doing this all kind of things. Let's say, the person who have birthday that day is ignored by all of his friend and at the end of the day they throw a party to celebrate the person birthday instead throwing that disgusting things to them. We are WELL EDUCATED PEOPLE so just stop this kind of things and DO it in better way.

It's not that i blame my friend for doing this to me but it's just my personal though. I'm not pointing at anyone. Happy birthday to me ^_^.
