HAPPY BIRTHDAY, POH LEONG!! (nah, it should be belated cos it's past 12 but oh, what the heck..)

i experimented with knoppix today, which is a linux system. all i can say is that linux is so cool!! well, maybe it's because i'm bored with windows. linux works a lot more faster, though i still need a lot of getting use to. but it's seriously not that hard. quite user-friendly i would say. i still haven't won the penguin minesweeper though. mind you, this minesweeper has 200 mines! but it does not have a timer. so the objective of playing to uncover all the mines, not beating the time record. they have more pre-installed games in knoppix. i like the logic games. it's high-time to give my brain some exercise. it has been rather passive, almost dead these days. there are other cool softwares too, such as this universe software that you can use to view almost any stars, planet, constellations..etc. in conclusion, i will just throw windows away and use linux if only more programs support linux. sigh, guess windows will continue to dominate. this is just so sad.

finally, got the pictures from en yao today, pictures from his student exchange programme in japan. i'll post the pictures up some other time cos there's some problem with the virtual host. he doesn't seem so different although he changed his hairstyle. haha, i thought i would laugh when i see the new hairstyle cos he told me that he cut his hair real short but i didn't. he looks fine. i still like his smile and his voice. yeah, i guess smile and voice can't change much. he has nice, deep voice =) well, just thank god he didn't mess up his looks, otherwise he is going to hear no end from me!
