Inspired by michelle's prawn mee photo I cooked prawn mee this weeken... ok actually started cooking the soup from Thursday... I started with the prawn shells, then on Friday took the shells out and put the pork rib and pork bones and finally on Friday night the chicken bones. Well, why over so many days - because I got the ingredients one by one and I got no time on Friday morning to clean the chicken!. Today I made the chilli paste and put the whole thing together and tomorrow gonna eat the prawn mee... ha..ha..

Heard this on the radio, there are 5 languages of apology .

1. Expressing regret : To say "I am sorry." to the other person

2. Accepting responsibility: To say "I was wrong." Specifically mention what you did wrong.

3. Making restituition: To ask "What can I do to help you forgive me?" Let the other person decide what you can do, the action can be closely related how the other person feel love and appreciated.

I typed this 30 minutes ago... but due to one wrong click I lost everything and need to retype it... This is so annoying...

To make the long story short.

1. I was confused with the manual for Joom!Fish 1.7 installation. Perhaps the manual I use was not the correct one for Joom!Fish 1.7 installation but that was the latest documentation that I could find. It was stated:

after playing around with the k800i I've acquired, i must say i am pretty sold. it looks slick and nice, has a great digical camera (Cybershot dude, don play play), plays radio with RDS, nice themes (got myself tux and christmas themes) and best of all, i can synchronize well with my Ubuntu!

The process is not really difficult. Search around for k800i, evolution, bluetooth, ubuntu and you will find this as search result. Fotakis made a pretty good how-to there that enabled me to get it done within 5 minutes. yes, 5 minutes. basically it is as following (for my own reference in future):

I had been using google calendar for the past few months. It is one good way for my husband and I to keep track of our activities. The option to share the calendar makes the service even more useful.

However there is a problem to have an online calendar... and that is how do you check your information when you are offline? I had been looking around for a solution and am really happy to find this tip http://johnnyjacob.wordpress.com/2006/04/30/google-calendar-in-evolution/.

Now my google calendars are also available for viewing when I am offline. The only "work" I have now is to update them when I am online.

it is again weekend. Not that we have finally nothing to do. a project is gonna be carried out - home server. TzeYing finally got her computer upgrade (mainly for her job) now, so the old trustworthy t20 should be retired to less portable tasks. So i popped in the Ubuntu Dapper CD and after 40 minutes it is up and ready :)

the weekend is still packed with programs. we have shopping to do, and also routine house cleaning. I still have some documents/books to read, and a document to work on. We have a few appointments this two days, and i believe if we planned our time ok, it would still be rather relaxing - i still need some time to recover from my flu.

last week was quite a hectic week. But in the midst of busyness, we manage to catch some sales going on in town, so we ended up buying *lots* of apparels (me have now 2 new khakis, 1 bermuda, 1 shirt, 1 shoe...). But there were great sales - 70% off some already discounted cloths (yes, perhaps out stock, but who cares?), so why not?

back to the new week. I've decided to lookbe effective and productive. Just a while ago i installed SVN-realted stuffs, but have not got the time to get it up. This afternoon i continued/started setting it up and now i have my own repository serving me my crappy codes. Getting it running under Ubuntu isn't tricky at all. apt-get does the job. Even got svn under apache ssl by following this how-to. To use SVN with Eclipse, look here. Next in plan is to get some sexy clients and start putting my web codes and manage it. yes, i know i can use console for many job, but with GUI i can be lazy.
