Postingan lama Andhika Verhoeven. Belakangan gw cuma bisa posting screenshot lama yang gw temuin dari HDD eksternal. Game The Sims 3 lagi di-uninstall dulu.

Gw sempet maenin Andhika, alias Magnus Bane.... karakter dari film Mortal Instruments: City of Bones ama TV Seriesnya Shadowhunter itu.... yang karakternya orang Batavia dulunya Jakarta itu.... gw sebagai orang Jakarta lumayan menghayati aja perannya dia wkwkw....... sebagai tukang sihir. Eh seru juga. Jadi si Andhika ini lagi coba-coba sihir malah bikin porak poranda seisi rumah jadi kotor. Sampah dimana-mana wkwkwkwk. Jadi teringat The Sims 1 ini mah. Ngoleksi sampah. Terus itu yang kotor-kotor mau disihir lagi jadi bersih semua.

Mana rumahnya gw jadiin tumbal proyek... eh salah, sasaran proyek testing CC gw... Itulah kenapa di tengah kamarnya bisa ada patung naga emas lagi nyembur air.... wkwkwk.....

Gw buka kartu nih ya kenapa namanya Andhika Verhoeven. Namanya campuran dua artis Indonesia keturunan Belanda: Andhika Pratama dan Paula Verhoeven. Btw gw gak ngidolain artis, cuma kebetulan aja dapet inspirasi pas lagi googling.

Struktur mukanya diambil dari pesepakbola keturunan Belanda Irfan Bachdim... yang udah nyetak 2 gol pas di Liga 2 tahun 2021 itu. Tapi malah kagak mirip ujung-ujungnya. Apa karena didempul tebel ama makeup hitam gothic.. jatuhnya malah kayak Pesulap Merah.

Karena keturunan Belanda jadi namanya jelas gw rubah jadi Andhika Verhoeven dan rasnya lebih kebule-bulean. Bukan Tionghoa kayak digambarkan di film and TV seriesnya ya, itumah karena faktor aktornya yang siap meranin perannya adanya etnis itu, alias susah cari aktor bagus yang kebetulan etnisnya Indonesia-Belanda.

*ੈ✩‧₊˚ Why learn Indonesian?

My goal is to be able to go to Indonesia without needing my grandma as a guide and to be able to speak/read the language of my dad's family.

*ੈ✩‧₊˚ Recourses

Babbel

Only problem I am currently encountering is finding trusted recourses, so I mainly use my dads babbel app to practice Indonesian, however this does mean I cannot study as much as I want.

*ੈ✩‧₊˚ Attention points

I haven't done a lot of vocab or grammer, but I do need to keep on practicing with pronouncing vowels ect. Especially with my speech impediment it's important I start on that early.

𝐍𝐞𝐝𝐞𝐫𝐥𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐬

*ੈ✩‧₊˚ Notes

Dutch is my native language, however, I can only speak 'law' Dutch due to me adapting to the 'dialect' I speak the most.

I mainly use Dutch in professional settings and at home. At home I still tend to speak formally or use the dialect Twents (which I know little off, but the accent of it makes me sound informal) due to my home environment. Well, I do speak informally with my friends but they always tell me to speak less formal. So that's a point I can work on?

Not only that, but due to me mostly writing stories/fanfics/oneshots in English, and reading in English, my Dutch has deteriorated.

So I am also planning to use this blog to help me with my Dutch writing skills and my translating skills.

𝐄𝐧𝐠𝐥𝐢𝐬𝐡

*ੈ✩‧₊˚ Attention points

My grammar and vocab because I have been switching dialects and mixing up words.

My grammar tends to sick the iller I am in all of my languages, so maybe more practice will help with that?

Besides that I want to continue progressing my writing skills, if I want to publish a book, I sure as hell need good grammar.
