Having an Open mind.

It seems very important to be able to have an open mind.

In which I can be not so hasty. In which I can look deep and explore different perspectives people may have.

Its not an easy thing to do. 

Become a certified!

I wonder if it is worth it pay a few hundred dollars to take a test to become a 'Certified Programmer'.

Opinions

Of course we can have opinion on a person.

But then keep in mind that, our opinions may be wrong.

Because: You may not understand that person so well at all(Especially if u dislike him.her)

If u dislike that person, would you bother to understand that person, would you bother to try and understand/know that person?

If ur answer to the previous question is NO. Then since u dun understand, that opinion u have belongs to you only.

I have met people whom I change opinions of over time.
But there are also people who stay the same.


God.


So do I, there are somethings that I find it difficult to change. BUT. There are some, which have such haiz. I dun wan to say anymore.

Final Nominate Maths and Programming Year.

I have seen/heard a lot of references about being good in maths and programming is supposed of a programmer. How weird.

In school, I didn't do well in Maths since young. Till now. In poly, my Programming modules are better than Maths modules. I also enjoy Programming more than Maths.

I wish I can treat Maths as something I will enjoy to do also....

<Insert confused here>

So far, the supervisor seems happy with what we have done for our FYP so far.

I think this is the first time I am so aware about the election things in the country. Today happens to be the nomination day.

There is this publicity, marketing move by the political party. Let me describe it.
1. The election candidate put his photo on the vehicle, visible to onlookers.
2. The car has nobody on it other than the driver.
3. The car is driven around the estate.

Question. By doing this, the candidate can get more votes?

I ask only because, I dun feel anything when I see it. LOL.

Why not to date and Object Oriented/Programmer.

Why not to date an Object-Oriented/Normal Programmer:
His answers are either True or False. (Boolean)
He visiualise everything as an Object including u. (Object Oriented Approach)
He keeps asking questions that starts wit 'If....' (If Conditions)
He tend 2 do things repeatedly. (Loops)
He has a large collection/ an array of weird things. (Array)

School Day 1

Back to school once again.

Feel a bit tired today.

I hope I didn't choose the wrong module.

A few classmates from the previous semester.

hmm...

Why does it pain me when I remember/recall people who were good to me?

Jade of Crystal?

Yea, we had dinner at Crystal Jade. The food was pretty nice, however Mum found it to be quite expensive. No surprise there. It had always been.

We ate this tofu that was steamed in a very tasty gravy. Conpoy/干贝was inside the gravy. Yea. But that is not the only good dish in the restaurant.

Looping Choice

It is very hard to describe. How the choices I have made, created the person who I am now.

It is also very hard to talk about how the choices of others affect ours.

'What happens  if back then I did/didn't do that? ', would I still be the same person today, typing?

Have I made right/wrong choices?

After doing some repetitive stuffs some weeks ago. It suddenly dawn on /hit me that, whether we live in a loop. OF COURSE! Back then, even in Primary School, didn't I learn science, Life Cycle. A loop. Repetitive.

egg -> chick -> chicken

and so on and so forth, forever.

Of course, there are variations within the cycle. Not the same egg is produced in each cycle. But its still the same process.

National Library Exchange book of Programming

Today marks the first time I go to the National Library building at Victoria Street.

I went there for this book exchange program.

I was very SURPRISED as I saw people turning up with a luggage/suitcase. I wonder how many of the coupons they have, how many books they are going to put into that luggage/suitcase.

I managed to get back one reference book from this session. not too bad eh. Got a lot of practice questions inside the book that I will try and to.

Despite cooking during the days taking Food & Nutrition at Zhenghua, I still forgotten to press down the button of the rice cooker. GOD. That calls for a big

FACEPALM Yea.

Hokkien meme code Project.

As promised(to myself), I have edited and added my own codes into this blog. For example, look at the javascript things on the right sidebar. I have also changed the font style for some elements via the CSS generated by Blogger. Some customisation are done just using the Template Designer within the admin interface. HA!

I have recently been looking at Meme(s) in the Web.

I find them at Know Your Meme.

Some examples:

The wikipedia donation banner plugin

LOLcats.


By the way, the Final Year Project in school is starting soon. I also like to listen to some of the new Hokkien songs. When I say new, I meant they are released after the 90's. LOL

You don't have to be evil to do CSS here.

I think more or less I read in a relatively fast pace.

In this 4th book,  'You Don't Have to Be Evil to Work Here, But It Helps'. The love philter appears again. This time they have come up with one phrase. A phrase that describe the consequences of being affected by that potion.

The phrase is simply, 'Till death do us/them apart'. Yea. Once two person drank the love philter, there is no 'cure' or a way to stop the effect of the love potion until death.

So there are still 'exits' to this love potion. One, by dying and somehow come back. Totally plausible if one has the Portable Door as mentioned in the previous books.  It also seems that if the person had true love before drinking the love potion, the potion is ineffective.

The main character from the previous books in the series have apparently went to 'happily ever after' as this book has a new main character whose name is Colin. But there are still references to Carpenter in this book.

This book talked about the 'selling-soul' thing in J W Wells. Apparently, its for real. The company will seemingly get in touch with the 'company' Hell runs. There will even be a formal paper contract to sign. The soul of a human (to hell) in exchange with some magical work provided by J W Wells.

Mr Dao appeared in the story again.

There is also this apple tree. The apple from this tree when consumed, makes the person immortal. Get to live for an infinity amount of time.

The soul exchange contract in the story got 'messed up' in the end. The person who is giving away her soul got to live forever, so J W Wells had to fufill their promises for an infinite period of time also.

Thoughts: Youth 'bully' website shocks Germany

There was this news article about an online forum where people posted offensive remarks.

News article link here

This postings on certain people in the forum trigger these people to engage in a brawl.

Some of the people in the brawl were sent to hospital.

One part form the news article :

'The founder of iShareGossip.com said in the only interview he has given, and on condition of anonymity, that the site was hosted by the same Swedish server as document-sharing platform WikiLeaks.

The site itself says it "aims to contribute to more transparency on the web". Anonymity allows users "to exchange opinions that they might not publish under their own name," the site adds.'

God.

So much for the World Wide Web. the Web isn't created for such actions. So much for the Web linking and bringing people together.

Join the dark side?

I don't know, I laughed yea. She was so innocent to have done that. There is no serious need to bow.

Back again.

Yes. I am back again.

I have finally finished everything that is related to the internship.Woo. School is reopening soon. The Final Year Project is heading my way.Yea. There seemed to be some changes in the school's arrangement of rules or academic thingys.
I now have this Group E classes. hmm...
I actually did some sort of comparison between LiveJournal, WordPress and Blogger just now. If I am not wrong, only Blogger users can edit the CSS without paying(lol).

So yea. Blogger by Google eh. I think I like Google eh, cool company, cool products. LOL.

Back to the Final Year Project, I am rather glad I learnt about content management system during the internship. I think it will be useful in my doing of the learning management system.

Just installed this Moodle LMS locally. Still figuring it out. The documentation online is still like a stranger to me. I hope I handle this like how I did with WordPress during the internship...

Oh yea, am I typing faster?! Lol

I am reading 'You don't have to be evil to work here but it helps' by Tom Holt. Hopefully can finish soon.
