codeXtremeApps 2010 Update
01 year ago
Seems like the presentation for codeXtremeApps 2010 went pretty well yesterday. Although its kinda scary facing 24 people Judges in the room presenting on our solution. Mr Yeak followed us to SMU and giving us advice. Thanks Mr Yeak. Certainly a mentor that everyone wishes to have.
Thursday is the prize presentation. Although I am not putting in high hopes for it but then, lets hope for the best.
On a side note, I have yet to transfer my host. 
Still have some trouble backing up all my data..
Alright, off to do work! =)
Error while upgrading to WordPress 3.0
0While I am trying very hard to backup some other stuffs from my ftp to my localdisk before the move to another host, i tried to upgrade my wordpress blog to 3.0 and I gotten this error…
Call to a member function add_rewrite_tag() on a non-object in…
Did a quick research and they ask me to deactivate my plugin which i did. ( Link here ) and here we go, it works… now I have to figure out, which plugin causes the problem before I continue.

Alright, competition ended and I had a long sleep last night.
Not long after I woke up this afternoon, i receive an email stating we are shortedlisted and have to present tomorrow, meaning to say we are in top 12. Congrats team!
Time to get busy tonight to prepare for the presentation tomorrow. Seems like my plan to move hosting today will fail.

in competition
So lets see… Over the next few days, I am “pretty” free.
I have codeXtremeApps 2010 which I will be using Project Nimbus ( http://www.projectnimbus.org )
You will be asking, what is codeXtremeApps and Project Nimbus.
Basically, codeXtremeApps is a 24 hours round-the-clock competition organised by ITSC, we were to use one of the 3 technologies which they provide.
Taken directly from their website ( http://www.projectnimbus.org )
“Project Nimbus is an initiative that hopes to solve innovators’ problem of finding data sets and services by offering a central place for authoritative and reliable data and services access from government and commercial entities in Singapore.”
This will start on Friday night to Saturday night. Interesting. Shall blog what happen when I am at SMU. Afterwhich, I have a “free” Sunday, i suppose. I will use that whole day to make sure my blog is properly revamped and moved away from Hostgator to a Windows Server. The move is not that Hostgator isn’t good but I find it pointless having 3 hosting with 3 different companies now. I rather move it to a platform, Windows, which I am more comfortable with now.
Almost 3am, time to sleep. Night!

Quotes I have been hearing recently

I have heard some great quotes from my friends, from my friends’ parent and from people whom i respect alot…
- Leaders must be firm!
- Leaders must not to be affected by emotions to make your decisions.
- I will not allow my family and friends to be bullied.
Also, to leave you guys with,
Frustrated
0To start off, i decided to post this on my blog because lesser people will view it. Else people will always comment my facebook too emo.
Recently someone’s mother whom i know passed away, i wanted to attend the wake yet I cant due to family belief of chinese 19 years old cannot go red/white event. ( Wedding – red / funeral – white ). So I have to ask someone else to give the “white silver” (Bai Jin). In fact, i had an heated arugment with my mum because of this getting me very pissed and upset.
Due to the death of his mother, I have been requested to take his classes cause he cant help to instruct. I tried my best to shift my schedule around already so I can help him, taking his classes. But I cant take his Monday afternoon class because of my commitement in school and I cant miss anymore lessons in school. I have already tried my best to help and assist. Just because I cant help on Monday afternoon class, i was called being “unloyal” to my brother. I was wondering what is wrong when I have already tried my best? The comment from him is a simple comment and totally mean no harm but sometimes I was thinking, whatever you have done for others can just be spoilt by just 1 “wrong” action of yours? I know it hurts when it lost a parent, in fact, i got very emotional because he lost his mum. Ask my classmate, I have been abnormal in school today. I even almost had an arugment because of that.
I cant accept a fact when someone lost their parents because I myself who is very very weak is very scare that the same thing will happen to me. I am weak, period. I am just learning how to accept life. I am scare i will lost my parents too. Maybe just because of my “wrong” action, if my parents passed away, no one will help me and the worse, i am alone. I don’t know.. I have this feeling. If my parents passed away, I am not gonna tell anyone? I don’t know..
In sumamry, i am just thinking, just a wrong action of yours, can result in all the trust you have built to be gone?
Pain in the heart
4I just recieve a message from someone who is very close to me. I knew what is going to happen since 3 months back but I didn’t feel much then but now when i got the message from her, a happy message… I feel sad, i never feel so sad for a long time already. I wanted to hide my feeling in front of my classmates but this time round, i cant.. i just cant put a persona anymore.
She is someone who is not even blood related to me. My sister. I don’t know, but what i know now is that i cannot afford to lose someone who is close to me..Sometimes when I am feeling sad and down, she is one of the first person i can talk to without any barrier. Haiz, I am going to miss this sister of mine. The feeling isn’t good. She is going for 4-8 years.. I know we can still contact and talk to each other through skype, msn but the feeling seriously.. Awww really feel sucky
Wishing her all the best when she is in Aus.
