Clean up room

Today clean up the mess after studying for whole semester. I found some quotes and share with you all.

由于你的想法,它会逐渐形成你的语言;
由于你的语言,它会逐渐形成你的行动;
由于你的行动,它会逐渐形成你的习惯;
由于你的习惯,它会逐渐形成你的性格;
由于你的性格,它会逐渐形成你的命运;

心智的模拟,在于选择;
选择的基础,在于比较;
比较的能力,在于推论;
推论的根源,在于记忆。。。

Internet Browser: Mozilla Firefox

Hmm... let see, what should i talk about firefox?

I'm using firefox now for most of my internet surfing activities. However, i still maintain my IE browser for those pages which "has to be" opened by IE (those activeX things such as yahoo upload photo tools, yahoo mail[WYSIWYG compose environment] etc).

Generally, it is more secure (since it takes rather small percentage of overall internet users + open source + lots of attractive extensions etc). Some extensions i used can be noted as followed:-

    weather forecast
      the latest weather is updated on my browser and i don't need to go to specific website for the latest weather

    bookmark synchroniser
      Since i still use IE, i will need to synchronise firefox bookmark with IE favourite (firefox Bookmark = IE Favourite)so that i can use the same things when i browse using IE

    rss reader
      i can read some interesting news without browsing to specific website (as long as they provide rss features). e.g. new york times, search engine watch, BBC news, WHYP Info Station (my weblog)

    mouse gesture
      For those whom use mouse frequent (compare to keyboard), this is a nice choice, i enlarge the font size by click&hold the right mouse button and do a "\" action. Cool?


    google preview
      This is a nice features which enable you to view a thumbnail page of the site (if it's available when you return results after doing any search in google

    ad blocker
      A typical feature to help you in blocking those advertisement you don't want.


There are more extensions and i just mentioned some, maybe you can have a look of it and try it when you free?
Mozilla Firefox

What next after master coursework studies?

Studies is ending...
Most assignment has been submitted...
Final exam is coming very soon(next week)...
I feel nervous. Is it because i'm going back soon? Or the feeling of facing the exam? I doubt this. Maybe it's time for me to introspect myself and plan + execute the plan.

Tasks:
First, secure a job!
Second, marry my beloved girlfriend!


Well, there's a wide range of grey area between first and second task. This task will lasts for 3 years and hopefully no extension will be granted(at least i won't allow myself to grant any extension). Anyway, planning is always planning without execution.

Good luck to all those whom are preparing exam/submitting assignment/writing research paper etc.
