Those are the goldfish that lina gave me for birthday.. I have been wanting fish as pet (not for food :P) for quite a while, I thought that seeing them swimming will be relaxing.. Unfortunatelly haven’t been able to watch them swimming very much, as they are in my living room and I spend most of my time in bedroom..

Planning to get more fish to make it more alive inside.. will probably need a “real” aquarium..

Learning the art of parenthood (only the 1% of it or even less).. 🙂

Some classical fonts to be considered for making wedding page or other classical page:nGeorgia, Monotype CorsivanAll of these fonts are available when I was playing around with Photoshop Elements, however whether or not they are readily available for web browser rendering I am not so sure.. Will need to read more on it. Felix mate, this is the entry for your font learning journey!

The purpose for this entry is for me to write down steps to design the site (which I might reproduce to design others). I am developing the site following closely Project 1 from the book Eric Meyer on CSS (a good book). n1. Decide the overall layout of the site. Draw on a piece of paper the layout. Decide how many columns, where to put site navigations, do you use banner and things like that.n2. Play around with colour theme. I use GIMP to get color code as well as comparing colors. n3. Start coding. Remember to use CSS and HTML effectively (seperate logic from presentation). n4. Get contents and make it as close as possible to the real thing. n5. Write down the additional functionalities that you want for the site. This can be things like: always changing ad banner, search function, putting today’s date, print function etc. Remember that some of these require quite an effort to implement (well at least effort to get the codes from someone else on the net :))n6. Beutification of the site using graphics as you see fit.

Took a day off from work today, as there are loads of things to be done this week. The important ones will be Capacity Pla
ing assignment and the web development job.
In COMP9334 (Capacity Pla
ing), I learned about few (simplistic) mathematical models that can be used to calcultate the utilisation of a system. Determning what kind of a system you have is the first step, open system and closed system have different assumptions and of course different calculations. The real-world application of this subject would be something like: in the future if I run an ISP business, how do my hardwares should handle the traffics/service demands from users for instance. How can I find the bottlenecks of my system, how can I manage the bottlenecks, what sort of improvement options that I have (limited by budget).
Quite interesting subject, although I have the doubt that this subject will ever be useful in life, as I am not really a network (or server .. oh whatever, can’t find the right term) person.. But who knows.. someone might offer me a network position :>

I was thinking of the kind of secular job that will help christians with their real job. My current job as a data entry operator (altho only 10% of it that requires constant typing.. ) is somehow one of a very good job for christians.
