I'm Going Home

Today (well, today in the sense of when I'm writing this) is Monday, 14 December 2009. This date may not mean much to you and me. It just a testament how fast time goes by. I remember the date I'm coming to Malaysia is 3 October which means I've been more than two months. Really, time just flew by, I don't even realize the day I'm going back to my hometown is getting nearer. I'm going home in 5 more days!! Yuhuu!!

Sure, the first month when everything haven't been settled is an experience I hope I never have to repeat. But when assignment begins to roll and internet connection is here to sweeten everything, time just fly by. Life is still troublesome but have been better, much much better than when I first arrived. There are times that I just hope I never come to Malaysia but it's not like regretting will produce anything but worsen the situation. So I decided just to 'calculate one step ahead while taking one step' like in one of my favorite Chinese proverb says.

Anyway, I'm really excited to go back. Maybe because this is the first time I'm leaving home for long time and this is also the first time I go back. I can finally meet familiar faces especially my parents, sister and precious friends. When I haven't go to Malaysia, I don't even know I'll miss them this much. I know what it means to be homesick now. Ah well, the day is getting nearer and nearer and it just make me happy thinking of go back!

Notes:

the structure in this writing is completely messy, huh? I was never good in arranging anything so just bear with me

Find Bible place in Google Maps

Got a lot of free time today (not really, I just don't want to do my assignment :D) so I go browsing (free time and internet connection is a good combination, huh?) which basically means look into various website aimlessly (which exactly what 'browse' in computer terms).

So, I use my favorite tools for browsing, which is a Mozilla Firefox add-on called StumbleUpon (a very extremely recommended tool if you love to browse) and I stumbled into this website called BibleMap.org. It's basically use Google Maps to show places in bible. It works neatly, just select which Bible chapter and it will show you the place if there is a place name in that particular chapter. It's a valuable tools to learn Bible more easily. Ah, at least I got a useful website which means I don't completely waste my time.. ;D

Updating E63 Firmware

Nokia E63 firmware has been updated to v400.21.013. To update the software, use the Nokia Software Updater. It won't install on Windows 7 except if you change the program compability in Vista or XP.

After I've resolved above problem, I've managed to update and re-install all of my must-have software in an hour. The annoying part is to set my phone so it can read (and hopefully) write Chinese character. I've managed to make my phone to do the read part in my precious 2.5 hour *sigh* using ZTA4 . It can also write the Chinese character but only in Text Message and program like Handy Calendar (this I don't understand. Not at all). I can't even write the Mandarin in the built-in note and Dictionary which are the program that I want to use to write the Chinese character. What, Nokia? Even 3rd party software can utilize the Chinese writer and your built-in program don't?

Oh well.. I'll try again later if I have time (and the mood ;))
