Review Donor Darah 4 Labtek (Kepengurusan 07/08)

Cover Proposal

Donor Darah 4 Labtek adalah salah satu program kerja (proker) yang dilakukan Himpunan Mahasiswa Teknik Informatika Institut Teknologi Bandung (HMIF ITB) yang diadakan setiap 3 bulan sekali. Panitia pengurus proker ini bukanlah dari HMIF saja melainkan seperti namanya, Donor Darah 4 Labtek, terdiri dari Himpunan-Himpunan jurusan yang ada pada 4 Labtek kembar di ITB yakni Labtek V, Labtek VI, Labtek VII, dan Labtek VIII. Himpunan-Himpunan jurusan yang terdapat di situ adalah HMIF (Himpunan Mahasiswa Teknik Informatika) di Labtek V, HMFT (Himpunan Mahasiswa Fisika Teknik) di Labtek VI, KMKL (Keluarga Mahasiswa Teknik Kelautan) di Labtek VI juga, HMF (Himpunan Mahasiswa Farmasi) di Labtek VII, dan HME (Himpunan Mahasiswa Teknik Elektro) di Labtek VIII.

Pada artikel kali ini, saya akan mereview kegiatan saya selama menjadi panitia inti dari bulan November 2007-Agustus 2008 dan seterusnya akan dibawa oleh kepengurusan selanjutnya.

Donor Darah 4 Labtek bulan November 2007 merupakan karir awal saya di proker ini. Mengurus proker ini memang tergolong tidak sulit namun juga tidak mudah. Mudahnya adalah kita tidak perlu lagi mengurus dokumen-dokumen secara mendetail karena dokumen-dokunen yang diperlukan umumnya sama dengan tahun lalu.  Sulitnya adalah untuk mendapatkan sponsor dan izin tempat.

Acara saat itu diketuai oleh salah satu mahasiswa Farmasi bernama Gina Gamiarsih berjalan dengan lancar. Tidak ada suatu halangan yang berarti. Evaluasi yang ada hanyalah sesuatu mengenai tidak terpenuhinya jumlah kantong darah yang ditargetkan. Saran dari saya pribadi adalah supaya target kantong darah dipertimbangkan kembali dengan alasan waktu yang ada untuk memenuhi jumlah tersebut sepertinya kurang.

Donor Darah 4 Labtek dilanjutkan pada bulan Februari 2008. Kali ini ketua acara tersebut adalah Nogista Antanuri, seorang mahasiswa Fisika Teknik. Kali ini terjadi suatu kesulitan yaitu kesulitan dalam masalah perizinan. Kebetulan saat itu saya yang menjadi Humas namun saat itu pula memang saya sedang terbebani dengan tugas-tugas yang sangat banyak dan deadline yang sempit dengan waktu acara. Alhasil, saya hanya bisa membantu sebisanya dan sebagian pekerjaan terpaksa dilimpahkan ke orang lain. Saran dari saya sendiri adalah sebaiknya panitia harus bisa menyadari kesibukan yang menjadi prioritas sehingga mampu memilih posisi yang tidak begitu menyibukkan.

Bulan Mei 2008 adalah saat dimana saya menjadi ketua donor darah ini. Saya saat itu berpikir pesimis terhadap keberhasilan acara kali ini mengingat waktunya yang mepet dengan deadline-deadline dan UAS ditambah waktu persiapan yang kurang sehingga sponsor pun tidak ada. Saya lalu dibantu teman-teman panitia yang luar biasa dapat dibilang lebih aktif dari saya. Saat ini saya sangat terbantu. Lalu pada akhirnya, kami pun mampu mempersiapkan acara ini dengan kerja yang luar biasa keras. Namun,  kenyataan tidaklah sekejam itu, diluar dugaan ternyata masih banyak mahasiswa yang ingin berpartisipasi sehingga target kantong darah pun terpenuhi dan dengan angka yang cantik : 135 kantong darah. 135 adalah nomor awal pada NIM mahasiswa Informatika ITB. Oleh karena itu, saya sangat bangga bisa memberikan yang terbaik dengan kerja keras dari saya dan para panitia. Saran dari saya sendiri adalah sebaiknya jangan pesimis dan pengaturan jadwal yang optimal lebih diprioritaskan.

Terakhir dalam masa kepengurusan saya adalah Donor Darah 4 Labtek bulan Agustus. Ketuanya adalah Muhammad Tito dari Teknik Elektro. Saat itu, segala sesuatu berjalan dengan mulus. Amat sangat mulus sampai-sampai saya serasa bukan sebagai koordinator divisi. Saat itu memang segala sesuatu sudah dipersiapkan dengan matang oleh Tito mulai dari konsep sampai timeline. Ditambah lagi saat itu adalah masa-masa awal masuk kuliah sehingga suasana masih fresh dan tidak ada kegiatan kuliah yang menjadi penghalang. Pada akhirnya, acara berjalan sangat sukses sehingga tidak ada evaluasi yang begitu berarti. Saran dari saya sendiri saat itu lebih ditujukan ke kepengurusan selanjutnya. Saran saya adalah supaya jangan menganggap proker ini sebagai proker kelas 2 karena sesungguhnya terdapat pahala yang lebih pada proker ini karena kita telah membantu suatu acara yang mulia karena berbasiskan pengabdian masyarakat dan kemanusiaan. Selain itu, kesalahan-kesalahan yang ada pada kepengurusan sebelumnya sebaiknya diambil hikmahnya dan dijadikan pelajaran sehingga kesalahan yang sama tidak terulang lagi.

Foto Akhir Kepengurusan Divisi PM HMIF 08/09… /*udah gak paham…*/

Udah gak paham… -__-|||

Itulah kata-kata yang tepat untuk menggambarkan foto-foto tersebut…

Jadi kami dari Divisi Pengabdian Masyarakat Himpunan Mahasiswa Informatika (PM HMIF) ITB pada hari minggu tanggal 15 Maret lalu  melakukan foto-foto bareng dalam rangka akhir kepegurusan PM HMIF dibawah Kepala Divisi (Kadiv) PM saat ini yaitu saudara Austin Dini Gusli.

Sebenarnya sih foto-foto ini lebih ditujukan sebagai “hadiah” perpisahan sementara untuk saudara Kevin Tanadi IF 06 yang tanggal 21 Maret nanti akan menuju Korea Selatan dalam rangka pertukaran pelajar.

Kami PM HMIF yang masih aktif saat ini terdiri dari angkatan 2006 dan 2007. Kalau dihitung-hitung, anggota 2007 dan 2006 harusnya ada lebih dari 15 orang, namun berhubung saat foto banyak yang sakit dan berhalangan, maka yang ada hanyalah segelintir orang saja…

Lepas dari masalah tersebut, sebenarnya sesuatu yang membuat foto kali ini “menarik” adalah kami mengekpresikan diri bukan mayoritas lewat gerakan, namun lebih menuangkan ekspresi kami melalui papan tulis yang kami pegang yang mana pada papan tersebut tertulis sesuatu yang kami inginkan sesuka hati.

Sesuatu yang juga “menarik” dari foto kali ini, kami disuruh oleh sang Kadiv untuk menulis sesuatu selain mengenai diri sendiri. Awalnya sih saya disuruh menulis sesuatu tentang si Mirza. Lalu saya terpikir untuk menulis “Mirza eMTe” (Makan Teman)… Tapi kayaknya yang eMTe bukan Mirza doank deh… Alhasil saya tulis di papan bahwa kami ada lah Pe’eMTe… hmm… artinya bisa beda-beda sih… ada yang ngira Pe’eMTe itu identik dengan pelaku eMTe, dan ada yang ngira Pe’eM (baca: PM) itu eMTe disingkat Pe’eMTe (baca: PMT)… Kalau saya sih lebih condong maksudnya ke versi kedua… hehe… ^o^

“Secara” divisi ini udah dicap sebagai divisi eMTe gara2 di divisi ini ada saya dan Austin yang diberi “gelar” sebagai orang ter-eMTe berdasarkan polling FI 06. Padahal “gelar” eMTe itu ada karena suatu hal yang gak penting dan gak jelas yang membuat saya (dan ujung2nya juga Austin yg notabene sbg Kadiv gw)  dibilang ter-eMTe… Sebenarnya kalau jujur, itu cuma gelar aneh2an doank sih menurut gw… Biar ada bahan ejek2an di angkatan… Padahal saya sih nggak beneran eMTe kok… Kalo Austin sih gak tau ya… hehe…

Nih,saya perlihatkan fotonya…

Pe'eMTe 08/09

berdiri kiri-kanan : Sanrio, Eka, Sesdika, Ginanjar

duduk kiri-kanan : Austin, Anthony, Rizkydaya, Amrimirza, Kevin

Nb : kalau dilihat lebih seksama, “bos-bosnya” atau para “petinggi-petinggi” divisi PM(T) itu pada duduk di sofa dan paling nampang di depan. /*Udah gak paham…*/

MS IgLoo : Hidden One Year War

機動戦士ガンダム MS IGLOO
Genre	Military science fiction
OVA: MS IGLOO: The Hidden One Year War
Director	Takashi Imanishi
Writer	Asahide Ōkuma, Hiroshi Ōnogi
Studio	Sunrise
Episodes	3
Released	July 19, 2004 November 3, 2004

Episodes :

1. 1. The Serpent has Vanished at Loum (大蛇はルウムに消えた) — U.C. 0079.01.04 – 0079.01.17
2. 2. The Howl that Stained the Setting Sun (遠吠えは落日に染まった) — U.C. 0079.04.29 – 0079.05.11
3. The Rapid Illusion above the Orbit (軌道上に幻影は疾る) — U.C. 0079.10.24 – 0079.11.10

Yup, MS IgLoo merupakan salah satu serial OVA dari kerajaan Gundam.  Suatu hal yang menarik dari OVA ini adalah penggambarannya yang menggunakan sistem CGI. Satu-satunya animasi Gundam yang menggunakan animasi 3D layaknya Final Fantasy The Spirits Within. Seri MS IgLoo ini merupakan OVA yang terdiri dari 2 season : Hidden One Year War dan Apocalypse 0079 yang mana keduanya mengambil setting yang sama dengan seri Gundam pertama kali yang dibuat tahun 1978 dulu yang mengisahkan pertempuran antara pihak Federasi Bumi (Earth Federation) vs pihak Koloni luar angkasa yang ingin memerdekakan diri (Zeon). Akan tetapi, kalau seri Gundam pertama mengambil sudut pandang sebagai pihak federasi, MS IgLoo mengambil sudut pandang dari pihak Zeon.

Cerita Hidden One Year War berawal dari seorang karakter utama bernama Oliver May, seorang Letnan Engineer dari pihak Zeon yang bertugas di kapal kargo sipil Jotunheim, Monique Cadillac, seorang wanita cantik yang bertugas mengawasi semua kegiatan di Jotunheim, dan Martin Prochnov, seorang kapten kapal Jotunheim, serta semua kru yang bertugas yang memiliki peran masing-masing. Semua yang ada di kapal tersebut mempunyai misi untuk melakukan riset pengembangan teknologi prototype weapon untuk berperang melawan pihak EF. Episode pertama menceritakan tentang pengembangan suatu senjata berupa space cannon bernama Jormungan yang mampu menembakkan peluru plasma yang mampu menghancurkan 1 kapal induk musuh dalam sekali tembak. Seorang gunner bernama Aleksandro Hemme bertugas mengoperasikan cannon ini dalam perang di wilayah Loum. Namun berbagai rintangan menghalangi operasi ini seperti sensor yang kurang memadai, jarak pandang yang kurang, dll. Uniknya, di episode ini kita dapat melihat seorang pilot legendaris dari era Universal Century (UC), Char Aznable memiloti Red Zaku Custom, beraksi menghancurkan kapal-kapal musuh dan mengirim sandi morse dengan Zaku-nya ke Oliver May supaya ia tidak menuju battlefield lebih jauh lagi.

Sedangkan episode II menceritakan mengenai Demeziere Sonnen, seorang mantan pilot dari pasukan Tank milik Zeon. Pada episode ini, ia memiloti suatu mobile tank terbaru milik Zeon, Hildorf, yang bertempur melawan pasukan Zaku milik Zeon yang dicuri pihak EF di bumi. Oliver May dan Monique Cadillac tidak ketinggalan perannya untuk menyimpan record mengenai pertempuran ini.

Episode III kembali ber-setting di luar angkasa dimana seorang pilot Zeon bernama Jean Luc Duvall bertugas membuat propaganda dengan dibuatnya Mobile Suit (MS) baru bernama Zudah yang memiliki spesifikasi tinggi namun ada suatu hal yang membuatnya tidak stabil, yaitu booster yang cepat overheat sehingga membahayakan keselamatan pilotnya. Dalam cerita ini, diceritakan bahwa pihak EF sudah membuat MS mass production baru bernama GM yang merupakan versi mass production dari RX-78-2 Gundam.

Lalu bagaimana dengan Aleksandro Hemme dan Jormungan-nya? Bagaimana dengan nasib Demeziere Sonnen dan Jean Luc Duvall?

Tontonlah MS IgLoo : Hidden One Year War.

Suatu kata kunci di setiap episode pada MS IgLoo ini adalah : Pengorbanan dan Sisi EVIL dan Pihak EF.

Memang, perang tak mengenal belas kasihan…

Karakter Utama

2 Orang 1 Kosan 1 Penyakit

**SROOOT…!! SROOOT…!!

Yah, itulah sound effect dari seseorang yang sedang membuang ingus,,,

Itulah hal yang sedang saya jalani akhir-akhir ini…

Pilek + Pusing memang sesuatu yang umum akhir-akhir ini di Bandung…

Cuaca di sini memang sedang tidak bagus, hujan, hujan, dan hujan…

Penyakit ini terjadi sekitar 4 hari yang lalu. Saya hampir setiap malam kedinginan. Padahal setiap malam adalah sesuatu yg berharga bagi seorang anak IF… (baca: mengejar deadline, nyampah, gak jelas, belajar 1 malam, dll)…

Pokoknya tuh akhir-akhir ini udah gak bisa tidur nyenyak (ya jelas lah! ingus meler terus, hidung tersumbat, dll), gak bisa konsentrasi (pastinya… kepala pusing itu bener2 sangat mengganggu), dan gak bisa beraktivitas secara maksimal. Tebukti dengan saya yang terus menerus bersin dan meler di kampus dan ujung-ujungnya kurang bisa aktif di kepanitiaan Pemilu HMIF kemarin sore.

Satu hal yang membuat saya merasa gimana-gitu adalah saat mengetahui salah satu Pacifist IF 05 yang sekosan dengan saya, yaitu saudara Moterico Adrian aka Monte aka Ricong kemarin juga mengalami gejala yg sama dengan penyakit saya. Suaranya bener2 udah sengal, terlihat lemas (emang bener2 udah lemas sih…), pokoknya tidak seperti biasanya lah…

Saya sih (dengan tidak munafik atau eMTe) merasa iba dengan si Ricong secara dia asisten+mahasiswa tingkat akhir gitu… Pastinya bakalan berat banget. Kemarin malam pasca hearing calon Senator HMIF, saya ditawarkan bung Dwinanto Cahyo aka “John~” untuk mengantar Ricong pulang naik motor, saya sih mau mengantar, tapi melihat keadaan saya yang juga hampir sama dengan dia namun tidak separah Ricong + ketiadaan SIM C membuat saya ragu. Ujung-ujungnya mas Dhika IF 05 mau berbaik hati mengantarkan Ricong ke kosan.

Lalu saya bagaimana? Yasudah, karena memang saat itu tidak ada lagi yang bisa “ditebengi” maka saya terpaksa naik angkot ke kosan. Sebenarnya ada sih si Anto yang bawa mobil dan satu jalan, tapi berhubung ada 3 orang IF 06 yg sudah booking duluan dan sepertinya kurang bisa melihat keadaan saya, yasudah saya mengalah saja…

Sesampainya di kosan, saya bertemu dengan mas Dhika yang sedang keluar kosan saya setelah mengantar Ricong. Lalu saya kebetulan mau membayar tagihan internet ke kang Adit IF 05 yang juga sekosan dengan saya+yang punya hajat sebagai pengurus internet Speedy di kosan kami, saat saya membayar, saya juga mengabarkan ke kang Adit bahwa Ricong sedang sakit, jadi kami memutuskan melihat keadaan Ricong sebentar tapi sepertinya dia sedang tidur saat itu. Yasudah, kami menuju ke kamar kami lagi.

Sesampainya di kamar, saya langsung bersih-bersih muka dan kaki serta gosok gigi, lalu rasa pusing yang ada di kepala memaksa saya untuk langsung menuju alam mimpi.

Yah, doakan saja saya dan Ricong yg notabene 1 kosan dan sedang sakit di saat-saat deadline bisa cepat sembuh. Amin.

My Original Gundam Stories (Phase 03)

Baiklah, lagi-lagi saya menulis suatu skenario cerita mengenai perang robot-robot besar yang dipiloti manusia, istilah kerennya Gundam di forum Facebook.

Kali ini naskahnya ditulis oleh saya sendiri, bukan oleh saudara Chuah seperti pada phase 02… hehe…

=========SIDE STORY PHASE-03 : BETRAYAL==========

Shortly, Riday accepted as a member of 23rd Special Tactical Group “Red Devils”.
Althogh he is a member of that group, his status is still a criminal.
His arms is still handcuffed and a small remote-controlled bomb planted on his
neck.
That bomb could explode any time if he’s going into rebel.
He sleeps in a standard room with no television, and AC. Just a bed, some
ventilations, and a laptop. Yeah, because captain Aznable read my biodata and so he knew about his potentials.
Captain Aznable take me to do some war simulation in UNSF’s MS everyday.
So, that will increase my skill as a pilot.

Until one day after Riday do some simulations…
“Hey, Riday, I think you can join one of our groups now. You’ve done this
simulation on ACE Level and the success rate is 92%… Impressive.”, said Aznable.
“Yeah… that was easy for me who always play simulation game since elemetary school.”, said Riday with arrogant voice.
“Hmmm… We’ll see that later.”, replies Aznable.
“Now, come with me.”, he adds.
“Huh… Okay… But please not to do monotonous things again and again…”, said Riday with boring face.

We go to space shuttle launcher room.
There, we meet with 4 persons. One of them is Colonel Bernard Sterling, and 3 of them look like pilots.
“Riday Adityer.”, said colonel.
“You’ll be assign to lt. Rick Gable’s team. Consist of You, Adette Sylvi, Rusty
Nail,and Mafty Lavy Erin.”
“Hmmm… Just one innocent woman, eh?”, said Riday with trifling face.
“Hmmph…”, Adette holds his emotion.

“OK now, you’ll go to Anaheim base on Moon to retrieve prototype MS that’ll be use as your MS.”, said Aznable.
“You’ll introduce to Head Mechanic there and go to our base immediately.

Understand?”
“SIR YES SIR!!”, everybody shout except Riday.
“……”
Then everybody step into the shuttle and it begins to launch.

Arrived at Anaheim moon base safely.
There, Riday’s arms still handcuffed and his neck still planted with bomb.
We meet the head mechanics named Ahmad Qusyairi and he shows us that new prototype MS for us.
“Gentlemen, these are our new prototype MS for your team.”, said Ahmad.
Then they see 4 MS with different equipments.
“These units named MBF-M2 Astray Mk-II, based on MBF-M1 Astray. They can change into 2 modes : Ronin and Blast which for short and long range.”

“Woow… awesome… Are they Gundams? They looks like Gundam”, asked Riday.
“Nope, they’re just above-average mass-production MS, but not Gundams.”, Ahmad answered.
“So, we’re the test pilots, right?”, asked Adette.
“I think so…”, said Rusty.
“Don’t worry those MS are tested for their well-functioned.”, said Ahmad.
“Oh, for lt. Gable, I will permit you to use this MS, AGT-001 Tyrant Gundam.”

Then they see a black colored Gundam with a lot of spiky armors and a black huge sword.
“wow…”
“This Gundam is mainly for short range combat but it also has powerful linear
chest plasma cannon and a Murasame Blaster, a huge black sword enough to pierce through Phase Shift armor and it can also multi-function as hyper beam riffle.”
“Plus it has built-in beam sabers on both hands.”
“Awesome…”, said Gable with sly face.

Then, Riday’s handcuffs released and everybody take their units and lt. Gable use the Gundam one. They prepare for return to Captain Aznable’s base.
“Good luck then…”, said Ahmad.
“Thanks a lot sir!!”, said all of them.
“Hey, oldman! Next time give me a Gundam, will ya?”, said Riday.

“Lt. Rick Gable’s Unit, Tyrant Gundam, launching!!”
“Ronin Astray Mk-II, Rusty Nail, launching!!”
“Astray Mk-II, Mafty Lavy Erin, take off!!”
“Adette Sylvi, Blast Astray, going out!”
“Riday Adityer, Astray II, launching!”

“Hey, my team will escort you. I want to do first test to find out durability of

those MS for a long distance.”, said Ahmed via radio communication.
“Oh, Ok, as you wish…Cih…”, said Gable with annnoying face.
“Then, we’ll launching our EWAC MS so we can keep in contact in long distance.”, said Ahmad.
Five EWAC Zaku II launch from Anaheim base.
So, 10 units total go to White Ark.

When they reach checkpoint where not too far away from White Ark, the EWAC team returns to Anaheim.
“Thanks for your participation, men. Now, I have some datas about your MS.”, said

Ahmad via EWAC radio telecommunication.
“Nice to help you…”, said Gable.
After the EWAC Team dissapear from sight, Gable keeps motionless for about 15 minutes.

Then Mafty said, “Hey, lt. Gable, what’s the ma-… GWAAAAAAH!!”
Before he completes his words, he realizes that the inner cockpit has divided into 2 sides, upside and downside. Then he realizes that his torso has divided into 2 along with the MS’s cockpit.
KABOOOOMM…!!!!
Mafty’s MS which right behind Gable’s MS sliced into two parts with Tyrant Gundam’s black sword and Explodes!

“!!!”, everybody shocked.
“LT. GABLE! WHAT ARE YOU DOING!?”, shouted Rusty.
Then Tyrant Gundam pointed his huge black sword to Rusty’s Astray and it shoots 5 hyper beam particles from the sword.
One by one of Rusty’s MS parts destroyed by hyper beam particles that shot from sword of Gable’s Gundam.
First beam destroy the head, next right arm, right leg, left leg, left arm, and
finally its torso.
“HHHWWW… HUUUWAAAAAAAAAAAA…!!!!”,

Rusty panicked.
KAABOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM…!!!
Rusty’s MS explodes along with Rusty’s life.

“RUUSTYYYYYYYYYY…!!!”, Riday shouted.
“No…”, Adette is still shocked from her team’s murder.
“BASTARD!! WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO YOUR TEAM!??”
“HAHAHA…!! THAT WAS WHAT I SHOULD DO…!! FINALLY MY MISSION IS COMPLETE!!”, shouted Gable.
“DAMN THOSE EWAC MS GET IN MY WAY EARLIER!! I THOUGHT MY PLAN WAS TOTALLY BROKE WHEN THOSE EWAC ESCORT ME!!”
“WHAT DO YOU MEAN!!??”, Riday shouted with anger.
“You’re too naive, boy!! From the beginning, I’m a spy from Pandawa!!”, Gable answered.
“!!!!!!!”, Riday shocked.
“WHAT!? SO YOU’RE AN ENEMY?? I can’t believe there’s a spy inside of UNSF!”, Riday replies.

“NO MORE TALKING, BOY!! I’ll SHOW THE HELL TO YOU!!”
Gable attack Riday with his huge black sword.
“CIH…!!”, Riday tries to defend himself from that sword with his double beam

sabers.
But Riday’s MS and double beam sabers overpowered by that Murasame Blaster.
Then Riday use the Rail Cannon which planted at hip armor of Astray Mk-II.
That attack successfully make Tyrant Gundam bounce off, but only a little damage to its armor.
Riday sees the Murasame that left from Rusty’s Ronin Astray Mk-II.
He goes to take that sword.
“Rusty, I’m borrowing this sword.”

Then Riday attacked again by Gable’s Murasame Blaster.
CLANK…!!
Those special swords clash against each other.
“CIH… still OVERPOWERED!??”, Riday said.
“Huh, what’s that light emitting from his Gundam’s chest?”
Suddenly Gundam’s powerful chest plasma cannon shot and break and explodes Astray

Mk-II’s left arm, both of them bounce off.
But Riday immediately throw his Armor Schneider combat knive to Tyrant Gundam.
“Not done yet…!!!”, said Riday.
Lucky, that Armor Schneider stab into Tyrant Gundam’s head and do major damage too

its sensor.
Gable stunned because of that.
Riday takes that chance to throw another Armor Schneider and it hits Gundam’s chest plasma cannon.
That cause a small explosion and cause Gable’s head bleeding.
In that situation, Riday grabs Rusty’s Murasame again with one arm and activate Astray’s booster to do a linear thruster stabbing (like Destiny Gundam do).

Unfortunately, Adette who still lost her mind do motionless.
Then Gable use his Murasame Blaster and points it to motionless Adette’s Astray.
Riday realizes about his action and immediately shields Adette’s unit with

Astray’s Anti Beam Shield.
“CURSE YOU BOY!! YOU INJURED MY HEAD!!”, said Gable.
“ADETTE!! ADETTE!! WAKE UP!! YOU’RE IN THE WAY!!”, shout RIday to Adette.
“HUH? But… He is too strong… We’ll die…”, said Adette.
“WHAT DO YOU THINK DAMMIT!!?? WE’LL NEVER KNOW UNTIL WE TRY!! WHO DO YOU THINK WE ARE!!??”
“Uh… Yeah, you’re right. We’re ace pilots of UNSF…”, Adette gets her mind back.
Riday duels with Gable again.

Then Adette shoots her Ludra (a 260mm hyper impulse cannon, power rating 7.1 MW) to Gable’s Gundam but Gable able to avoid it.
“NO USE USING THAT SLOW CANNON!! HE IS TOO FAST FOR THAT KIND OF CANNON!!”, said Riday.
“MAKE CONTACT WITH WHITE ARK!! IT’S NOT TOO FAR!! EXPLODE YOUR HEAVY WEAPON PACK AND MY BEAM RIFFLE!!”
“THAT SHOULD NOTICE THEM…!!”
“O… Okay!!”, said Adette.

Then she destroys her weapon pack with Rail Cannon and then it emits shiny
explosion.

“CIH!! My Murasame’s break!!”, said Riday.
“It’s done, boy!!”
Suddenly a barrage of beam particles stop the duel.
Then Gundam Achilles appears as well as his team, Helios Gundam and Sword Mach Gundam.
“GODDAMMIT! How does the reinforcement know about this??”, Gable said
“Unfortunately for me, my Gundam’s sensor and plasma cannon is broken, can’t take anymore MS!!”
Then he escapes.

“Hey… What’s happening here?? Who’s that escaped Gundam guy?? And where the other??”, Diko asks.
“What a battlefield… I wonder what was happened…”, Nate said.

Then they go to White Ark and explain everything.

In the Bernard Sterling’s room.
“So, he is a spy after all…”, said Bernard Sterling.
“Yes, then what’ll we do?”, said Aznable.
“I have a plan…”, said Bernard.

In Male Pilot’s room.
“We’re sorry for your other comrades…”, said Diko.
“….”, Riday just silents and leave him.
“Hey!! That’s not a nice attitude!!”, shouts Nate to Riday.
“It’s OK, Nate… I can understand him”, said Diko.

In Female Pilot’s room.
“So, Adette, we’re sorry about your comrades, Rusty and Mafty…”, said Naru.
“Thanks…”, said Adette.
“Then what’ll you do?”, ask Amira.
“Dunno…”, Adette answered with weak spirit.

===========END OF SIDE STORY PHASE-03============

Oh ya, kalau ada yang mau berkomentar atau berbagi ide sangat dipersilahkan… ^^

My Original Gundam Stories (Phase 02)

Honestly, skenario cerita pada phase 02 ini bukan ide saya, melainkan ide dari salah satu rekan saya yang juga ikut meramaikan forum Gundam Facebook dan ditulis olehnya, namanya Chuah Sze Jing.

Baiklah, inilah kelanjutan dari skenario cerita sampingan (side story) phase 01 :

==============Side Story Phase 02 – Introduction ==========

“hey kid!” Riday shouted at me when i walked up at him
“hey kid, your younger than me right shortie?” he continued when i was escorting him.
the troops held him back from me.
i didn’t respond to him and kept on walking.
“sir, you have the right to re-” riday cut him off and said “hey, what’s wrong?? scared of a guy older than you?”
he was getting on my nerves by the time he said that
“hey, if your younger than me the-”
“SIR I SAID YOU HAVE TEH RIGTH TO REMAIN SILENT!”
one of the troops shouted at riday

“why did you steal that MS?” i asked him
“meh, i don’t have to answer a question from a kid.”
this guy was jsut pissing me off by now.
“ANSWER THE QUESTION!”
“wow, i’m so intimidated.” the sarcasm in his cocky voice had made me angry.
i glared at him.
“show some respect boy.” one of the troops said
riday spat at his face.
the water just floated in mid air.
the troop that riday spat at pushed him onto the ground and started beating him up.

i thought this was a good time to join in and kick his cocky bum
but i broke the fight
“ATTENTION PRIVATE!” i ordered him
“SIR, YES SIR!”
“you have no right to beat the man. you shall be deducted of 10 points off your military record if you don’t straighten up!”

i pulled riday from the floor.
his lip was bleeding now. little drops of blood were floating everywhere.

“your just lucky nate helped you out.” the guard i scolded whispered to him.

“um, kid i mean nate-”
“YOU SHALL ADDRESS ME AS 2ND LT NATE ARCHER!”
“uh- YES SIR!” he stammered
“here, you have reached the room where i am supposed to escort you to. Major Awabe will talk to you. Show respect to him, his not as forgiving as me in disrespect.” i said to him
“oh yeah, for the record, i am younger, i’m only 14, and i do not tolerate age discrimination. LISTEN RIDAY ADITYA, I HATE YOU.” i said in a very irritated voice

“hey nate! it’s time for our training!” Naru said to me
“hey whose this? he looks kinda cute…” naru continued

“hey who was that?” she asked me
“a troublemaker.”
she looked confused and stopped in her tracks
i continued walking.

after our training and 1 hour break (read my last few posts in phase 02 a new hope)

we went for the meeting
(this is additional dialog before they told us about our new gundams, thats confidential)

ridday stood in a corner during the meeting
he glared at me.
“so, what should we do with this rebel?” major awabe asked us
“he has committed serious violations and crimes general.”
major awabe told the general about what he has done.
” i see…” the general said as he sighed and closed hsi eyes.
“major awabe, sentence this boy to prison or a life sentence of community service or death” (yeah it’s that serious, stealing a gundam or havign a gundam without a license is illegal lol)
“GENERAL!” the captain aznable saluted the general.
“if i may, i will accept this boy into my squad as lifetime community service.” the captain continued

“um i accept sir!” riday said with glee
“SILENCE BOY! captain aznable, are you ready to accept a new squad member? if he still shows disrespect, your title as captain shall be removed.”

“SIR YES SIR!” the captain said sharply

My Original Gundam Stories (Phase 1)…

Saya baru-baru ini aktif di forum Facebook yang membahas Gundam…

Di situ, saya dan beberapa orang teman dari luar negri seperti NY, China, dan Singapore membahas tentang cerita orisinil mereka… Dan kami pun saling mengenal dari situ…

Saya mulai memikirkan ide untuk membuat cerita orisinil Gundam yang berdasarkan cerita awal teman2 yang sudah duluan menuliskan idenya…

Pada forum tsb, saya menuliskan cerita pertama saya sbb :

OK… this is the side story of Chuang and Diko’s Stories…
Side story means the story happens at almost the same time as the main story goes…
since i don’t want to interrupt the main stories which Diko and Chuang wrote…

==========BACKGROUND STORY (just a copy, ^^)==========

It’s the year 2160. Human has advanced its space exploration into further deep space region as far as Jupiter. The colonization of Mars has begun already for ten years now. Mankind has already building two large colonization city in some Mars main continents. Lincoln City is the first one & The New Cape Town lies approximately 1671 Km from Lincoln City. This two
city was built based on scientific & mining purpose, in eastern most not far from Valles Marineris Region. So almost 75 percent of the residents are largely a scientist & engineers. The rest are Military.

The main large company in Mars is Zygma Enterprise Omni National Corporation. Dealing mainly in Space Exploration & Mining Resources. The CEO of Zygma Enterprise is Jerid Jardin. A 55 years old moon base origin who has vision about space exploration & colonization. He was the one who spearheaded the building of Lincoln & New Cape Town.

Back home in our beloved Earth, The UN has advanced its vision to become more peaceful oriented organization. Backed with its advanced & large combined military from all of the nation on earth. There’s no each country military, but there is one large United Nation Military Command, including United Nation Space Force (UNSF).

=========SIDE-STORY PHASE 01: Gamer’s Dreams=========

Riday Adityer, a 20 years old student who live in a city in a Space Colony Java-7 called PVJ, is always has a normal life… or you can say it “boring” life. He studies at one of the best intitution in that city as a programmer. He always use his spare time with his laptop. Sometimes he programming, sometimes he playing simulation games a lot. He always curse his life as a boy who live in a peace and calm Java-7. Yes, he is a boy who search for a new adventure like in the video games. To achieve that, he always tries to escape from his hometown and goes to another place where he can find many adventures.

One day, after school, he tries his luck on UNSF soldier. He tricks that soldier and He steals one of UNSF’s mobile suit (MS) EWAC Zaku II which used by that UNSF soldier who serves as a messenger. Then, he makes hole on Java-7 and goes to space without thinks further. The messenger’s allies chase him.

“Hey, you in that Zaku, surrender immediately or you’ll get really nice
punishments for stealing soldier’s MS!!”, said those soldiers via radio communication.
“Cih… like hell I will give up my dreams!”, that boy said.
“OK, I give you 10 seconds to retreat! 1, 2, …”, said allies’ leader.
Riday doesn’t care about that warning. He still going farther from Java-7.
“Really nice, boy! I’ll give hell to you!!”
then allies’ leader begin to load a lot of Zaku Machine Gun’s ammos.
For a boy who is a war simulation gamer, dodging those attacks is just a piece of cake. Plus the MS Zaku II EWAC has a large sensor that can give early warning about danger that come to that MS.

“Hehe… this is interesting! No damage after all. I’ll try to use some ammo
then.”, Riday challenging them.
Then Riday snipes the targets and shoots them with Zaku Machine Gun.
“Wha…? That boy can dodge and use that Zaku…!? Impossible!!”, said the leader.
But after he said that, he hears some explosion.

BOOOOM…!!!
1 of 2 Zaku II destroyed by Riday.
“MIGERU…!!”, shout the leader.
But Riday keeps shooting to the leader but he always miss.
“Damn this leader!! He is too smooth!!”, said Riday.
Eventually, his ammos empty.
“Shit! Out of ammo!”
He looks for another weapon, but unfortunately EWAC Zaku II only has 1 Zaku Machine Gun, and no other weapon.
Then he throws away his Zaku Machine Gun to leader’s Zaku II and tries to escape.
“You’re not going anywhere, boy!”, said leader.
The leader snipes Riday’s Zaku II at the EWAC equipment.
BUM…!!
EWAC successfully destroyed and Riday’s Zaku bounces off from the explosion.
That Explosion took the Zaku’s booster too, so Riday couldn’t move freely.
“KUSSSSSOOO…!! Damn that person!!”, Riday shouts.

Riday’s Zaku begin to attack Leader’s Zaku with Zaku’s palm.
but, no effect against Heat Hawked Zaku… Plus his inexperienced in real melee battle makes it worse.
shortly Riday’s Zaku II captured by that Leader. With Riday still in the cockpit.
Then they go to one of UNSF’s Mothership called White Ark.
There, they have a “warm” welcome to sinner like Riday.

Then the Leader with some troops break the Zaku’s cockpit door and then they finds Riday unconscious.
“Wow… He’s really still a boy. Boy now a days is pretty talented, huh? Hey, bring me some ball of water (yes, water in space is ball-shaped, right?)!!”, said that team leader.
Then he takes that water ball and slaps Riday’s face with that water.

Riday awakes. Then he tries to punch that leader but some trooper hold him.
“Lemme GO!! LEMME GO!! LEMME PUNCH THAT BASTARD WHO TOOK AWAY MY DREAMS!!”, Riday shouts.
“Let him go…”, said that leader.
Then he punches that leader continously until that Leader stops Riday’s punch with his hands and quickly handcuffs Riday’s arms.
Everybody around them point their guns to Riday.
“Satisfied? I took about 3-4 of your punches… Now what?”, said that leader.
“Grrr…”, Riday still mad.
Then Riday looks at the leader’s name tag.
“1st Lt. Diko Sidhikoro… So that’s your name….”, said Riday.
“Hm…? Yeah, that’s my name, then who’s yours?”, Diko replies
“Riday Adityer… Just a civilan… I’m sure next time we’ll meet again….”, said
Riday.
“Love to…”, Diko replies with half smiling face.

Then Riday moved to White Ark’s cell with some troops guarding him.
“2nd Lt Nate Archer, please escort that boy with some troops. I’m worrying about

that boy… My feeling says he is kind of potential but dangerous person….”,
said Diko.
“OK…”, said Nate.
Then Diko’s and his team begin their mission to destroy 18 drones.
