What is JLPT? JLPT (Japanese-Language Proficiency Test / 日本語能力試験) is a Japanese language exam that covers language knowledge, reading ability, and listening ability. JLPT has 5 levels of certification (N5 to N1, with N5 being the lowest level), and this blog post will detail my N4 exam experience. The exam format is multiple choice, with each section having its own length. During the listening section, a tape recorder will be played. ...

! THIS IS YOUR LAST WARNING, THERE WILL BE PICTURES CONTAINING BLOOD ! Background I went to a clinic via BPJS Kesehatan (Government medical services) because my nose kept outputting clear snot. At first they gave me rhinos cold medicine, but it only made my nose dry. The clear snot kept gushing out despite my nose feeling like a desert. They refered me to a hospital so that I can consult with a Otolaryngologist (ENT doctor). At first, the doctor gave me some medicine and a sodium chloride solution to do nasal irrigations. Despite the fact that I routinely wash my nose and take vitamin C daily, my clear snot still kept flowing out of my nostrils. My ENT doctor eventually recommended septoplasty, which confused me because apparently I have a deviated septum (my nose bone is crooked to the left, cutting out airflow). I’m not sure how it will help with my clear snot problem, but I decide to do it due to a few factors: ...

Intro I’ll be honest, my only happy memory of 2023 that stuck with me was the fact I bought a PC in August. Let’s not dwell on that and reflect on my past resolutions that can be seen in this post, or my older post. Reflection time I had 4 resolutions, let’s take a look at each one: Fix my GERD People who meet me daily would know that I still have problems with this. My main problem is my lack of discipline. If I eat too much or drink while eating, I would feel bloated. Knowing that, I still keep overeating, or drinking because my brain wants to. The constant stress from my daily life also does not help, but I don’t think I can do anything about this for the time being. I’ll try to be more strict with myself, but these are probably meaningless words that I will ignore during 1 2024. ...

Intro 2022 has been a year full of highs and lows. Sadly, the lows happen more often than the highs. Anyway, since I forgot my past resolutions, I won’t discuss them in this post. Instead, let me share my new year resolutions: Resolutions It is better to set reasonable resolutions and achieve them, rather than setting up abstract or unreasonable resolutions and failing to achieve them. Fix my GERD For those of you who knew me, you probably know that I have acid reflux, and it is still not cured since 2018. An endoscopy on 2022 only revealed a polyp on my esophagus, and esophagitis due to me regurgitating food that I ate. The doctors advised me to avoid trigger foods and eat less portions more often. ...

Backstory My phone screen got broken when it fell down, rendering it unable to be used at all. When I took it to the service center, the cost of repair was about 20% of my phone price, and it need to be left there for about 2 working days. Luckily for me I have a secondary phone, but it was a 4 year old phone running LineageOS 18. Even then, the past 2 days waiting for my phone to be fixed was riddled with anxiety. ...

TLDR here If you want a TLDR of this event, simply visit this facebook post. Otherwise, enjoy my drivel of me recanting the horrors of this event. Prelude My last post was on the 22nd of July. The truth is that nothing of interest warranted me to create a blog post. My life only consisted of working on weekdays and resting on weekends, until one day an event caught my ears and eyes. Comifuro is back, after a 2 year hiatus due to covid restrictions! Ghosty’s comic, Kamvret comics, and many more were there! Sounds like a perfect event for me to enjoy, right? So I asked along two of my friends to come with me. Little did I know that… ...

I can’t believe I am experiencing a historical event, or even become a part of one. Sadly that historical event is a global pandemic. 6th July 2022 I felt fine, also went outside my house for a few errands before work starts. My mother was experiencing mild flu symptomps though. 7th July 2022 I had a fever, headache, sore throat, all flu symptomps. I consulted a doctor online through a telemedicine app to request a sick letter and medicine. She gave me what I wanted, and also told me to go try to do a swab test, which I can only do by Saturday (9th July 2022). At around 16:30 my fever flared up to 38.2 degrees Celcius, and my muscles are all sore. I had a hard time trying to fall asleep, and also can’t sleep for long periods. This was the peak of my symptoms. ...

On the 20th of March this year, I bought a bundle from Humble Bundle, called the “Stand with Ukraine Bundle”. It included many games, including Back 4 Blood, Satisfactory, Starbound, and many more. The bundle also contained other software and courses. One of the courses was this course, about 3D game development in Unity. I had some interest in game development, so I decided to follow along the course. The result was this game that I uploaded to their site. Here is a link to the source code. If you are tech-savvy enough to read the game scripts, you would notice a few debug/cheat keys that I left in there on purpose. ...

Multiplayer So me and a couple of my friends wanted to play Starbound together. Hosting a server using your own machine or simply joining via steam is a viable option, but none of our connections were stable enough. If I hosted, sometimes packet loss would cause everyone to disconnect from the server (including myself, even though I was hosting the server). With that in mind, we decided to find a dedicated VPS to run the starbound server. We eventually setteled for ID Cloud Host because it is hosted in our country (Indonesia). ...
