Today, early in the morning, my boss called me. At first I thought I'm in some kind of trouble as Woon Fei's tone was quite serious (in a way that I thought I was in trouble..haha..silly me)..compared to the others, I think I'm the only one who got confirmed in the shortest period as I once remembered Yih Ching says something about being in the ASIP (Applied Skills Internship Program) is also considered as being under probation..
Here goes my official career commencement! anyway, no salary increment is the only drawback. So I still have to continue doing freelance work for the extra income.
Anyway, praise be to God for all His blessings that He bestowed upon me..

Everyday..
And I..
Was the kind of guy..
Who'd never let you look inside...
I'd smile when I was crying...
I had nothing but a lot to lose...
Thought I had a lot to prove...
In my life, there's no denying..
Goodbye to all my yesterdays...
They're gone...
Goodbye, so long...
And I...
had enough of cryin'...
Bleedin', sweatin', dyin'...
I'm Gonna live my life everyday...
I'm gonna touch the sky...
spread these wings and fly...
I'm gonna live my life everyday
Change, everybody's feeling strange..
Never gonna be the same...
Makes you wonder how the world keeps turning..
Life, learning how to live my life..
Learning how to pick my fights..
Take my shots while I'm still burning..
Goodbye to all those rainy nights...
They're gone..
Goodbye, so long...
And I..
Had enough of cryin'...
Bleedin', sweatin', dyin'...
I'm gonna live my life everyday...
I'm gonna touch the sky..
And I spread these wings and fly..
I'm gonna live my life..
Hit the gas, take the wheel..
I've made myself a deal...
Ain't nothing gonna get in my way..

How to install Sun's JDK in Fedora 8
By default, Fedora will use GNU's version of JDK which is gcj.
To verify this, check the version by running java -version in the console and it will return
something like this :
java version "1.5.0"
gij (GNU libgcj) version 4.1.2 20070925 (Red Hat 4.1.2-33)
Copyright (C) 2006 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
This is free software; see the source for copying conditions. There is NO
warranty; not even for MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
to install Sun's JDK on Fedora 8,
1. Download the Linux self extracting rpm version of JDK from Sun's website.
Let say the rpm name is jdk-6u3-linux-i586-rpm.bin
2. Fire up the console and change directory to where the downloaded rpm is located
3. Change to root by using su and enter your root's password
4. Change the permission of the file by using chmod 755 jdk-6u3-linux-i586-rpm.bin
5. Run the file using the command ./jdk-6u3-linux-i586-rpm.bin
6. Scroll all the way down and enter yes
7. Next, enter updatedb; locate javac |grep bin
It will show you a path to the newly installed Sun's JDK.
8. Next, run these commands
/usr/sbin/alternatives --install /usr/bin/java java /usr/java/jdk1.6.0_03/bin/java 100
/usr/sbin/alternatives --install /usr/bin/jar jar /usr/java/jdk1.6.0_03/bin/jar 100
/usr/sbin/alternatives --install /usr/bin/javac javac /usr/java/jdk1.6.0_03/bin/javac 100
9. Lastly, to change the default JVM from gcj to Sun's version, run this command
/usr/sbin/alternatives --config java
Select the one that is from Sun and that's it!
Edit: I forgot something. There's a bug but I'm not sure whether it's Sun's or Fedora's.
but here's the fix: enter this command:
sed -i 's/XINERAMA/FAKEEXTN/g'/lib/i386/xawt/libmawt.so
Edit 2: The bug seems to be caused by libx11 having problems with assertions.
upgrade libxcb via yum and it should be fixed. The version at the moment of this edit is libxcb-1.0-4.fc8
To verify this, check the version by running java -version in the console and it will return

Path of my future..
Actually, there's not much to say here. Just got back from the movies with a couple of friends. Been doing that like on every weekends since last month.
Well, I'm not going to say anything about the movies here. But I've been wondering. On what my future is like. What,where and who am I going to be. A lot of my friends says that it's still early to think about these stuffs as we've just started out in our careers but I can't help myself not to think about it.
There's a long road in front of me and only God knows what will come in my way. Hope that my faith will sustain me and I will get through somehow.
