indoglish

Because I use a lot of Indo on this mostly English site, here's some lingo for the uninitiated:

abang=big brother
ade/adek=younger sibling (gender neutral)
bete/bt=a negative emotion, usually irritation or a bad mood
cewe/ce=slang for girls
cowo/co=slang for boys
ja'im (jaga imej/image)=guarding your social image
kakak (pronounced kaka')=older sibling (gender neutral, or female, depending)
--kak (ka')=honorific for older siblings or 'sempai'
kuliah/kul=college
gwe (sometimes gw, gue)=slang for I or me
SD=elementary school
SK (sometimes es-ka; setia kawan): solidarity, loyalty (among friends)
skul=school
SMA=high school
SMP=middle school
TK=kindergarten
wa=slang for I, me (same as 'gwe')

what are all those 2s? this is shorthand for a 'kata ulang' or repeated word. ngakak2 is read ngakak-ngakak= laughing very hard

any words that need to be added?

BARRY ANAK MENTENG, JAKARTA LOVES YOU

Way back at the beginning of the campaigning, when they accused Obama of having gone to a madrassa, some news crew (I think from CNN, but it was so long ago now, and I heard the story second hand) went to check it out, and interviewed the woman who had been his first grade teacher.

She said, "My student is going to be president of America?" and teared up.

I'd sure like to see her now.

Today is a good day.

I am proud of you, America.

Still not dead. New cp still sucks

I've been writing posts, but posting them elsewhere because Tabulas's new cp still sucks. I don't know why they had to get rid of the plain text editor. I just don't know. I can't stand it.

Anyway, I'll probably do a massive catch-up post at some time. Or more likely a series of them, since tabs has word per post limit.

I'd hate to abandon tabulas, since this journal does go so far back for me, but the traffic here is just so not proportional to the amount of effort it takes for me to keep my head from blowing up every time I re-realize that the plain text editor is no more.

(Oh, god, it has auto paragraph spacing. Things just get worse and worse.)

Basicly, for the sake of friends who can't access larger journaling sites, I'll probably continue to Xpost the way I have been. But honestly, the traffic and community just isn't there on Tabulas, and a lot of what I get here can be pretty vexing.

Or in tagalog.

But I DO like the journal system better here--if we don't consider the horrific loss of the plain text editor.

And I HAVE been here for a logn time. So, I dunno.

Anyway. Catch-up posts coming soon. Just don't hold your breath.

I'm so glad the fog is back. I want to roll around in all the cold aiiirrrrr.


These are for the eL, "Random Diary" sketch thread, btw. I'm not just weirdly being weird. I mean, okay, yes, but I'm doing it with purpose!

Also, ahurhurhur, Datsu.

I hate this new cp

The simple editor is gone.

I hate this new editor, with it's buttons and annoying formating and auto-spacing and what not.

Hate it.

onoz!

The tabulas user cp has changed! And the opt out link is gone! It still seems to be working as the simple editor (you know, where you have to type your own html tags and stuff) But now it has a "post as html" check box like you get when replying to entries. This might take me a bit to figure out.

I also can't find how to access the advanced editor, because while I hate it, it does (or used to, at least) preserve the indents when posting stories copy-pasted from MSword.

the layout

Wanderlust v2. is a stargate layout.

The idea of the Stargate has always been one I liked: step through and wind up far, far away. It's Star Wars meets CS. Lewis's wardrobe.
