Well, I guess I will hardly update this blog already.
Here's some of the proud posts I have made - they are the best out there in my blog.

My latest best post:
A post about my old house

These are not that great, but somehow nice in some sense:
Random thoughts relating life to papers
Reading online articles - from anime to Osama
Playing with some symbols
An essay written in Chinese

And arguably my best post in the whole blog so far,
A story

Of course, my "good" posts may not limit to these only. There could be a few more good one that I couldn't recall or fail to spot as I trace back. If you wanted to, just go on and look for it yourself - you may stumble on something cool. Try to disregard any from 2007 - they differ quite much from what I recommend above, in term of thinking, grammars etc.

Oh well, enjoy!

Neglected

Posted: Friday, January 7, 2011 by GGdTJJ in

Such a nice skin, and once very active with 1 entry per 2-3 days, now it's has not been updated for 2 months already.
As titled.
Get me something that can keep me writing, or this blog will face closure.

Oh, enjoying my piano though, but need to face exam now. So la...

New Piano Delivered

Posted: Saturday, October 30, 2010 by GGdTJJ in

New piano was scheduled to be arrived by today. Made a photo, made a video about my old piano. Wanted to post about it, and 'ding dong' struck. Piano was here already.
I was in a shock, but had no choice to just tend to them first.


3 people came and they were doing it very quick. If it was a movie delivering a piano and the director wanted to just show it pictures by pictures, like a slideshow, then he/she can just use my photos I just take.

Piano's here. Sitting in the lorry, waiting outside of a new home, like the bride waiting in the 轿子.  

Piano's in the home. Passing by the place where it was supposed to be, but it has a better home - my room!
 
The piano was lifted - LIFTED- so easily by two movers. It's not touching the ground.

And they are doing it while climbing on ladders. They can go to those TV show to perform already. Such insane power.

Yes, it's true. The piano is not touching. They are indeed LIFTING it up. Now believe it.

Finally, she reached where she should be, still sitting on the trolley though.
Sitting in the right place, with the right mate - an elegant adjustable bench.
Yes, she's a Hailun. Hailun H-33P - the top-of-the-line model of the Hailun uprights.
With Hailun being one of the best Chinese piano makers, this is arguably one of the best upright model coming out from China. And hey, it's just about RM15k in Malaysia - with the comparable model, made by Yamaha and Kawai costing roughly RM40-50k - a three times difference.
Okay, it may be very well worth every penny, but how is the performance?
What? You are asking me about the performance of that piano? She's sitting in my home which means that she has passed numerous vigorous testing by me when she was still in the showroom. It is by no doubt a great piano - it's a beast, that is hard to tame, to be honest. If you are interested in getting a piano but are overwhelmed by the high price tag by the Japanese and feel cheated by the used one, take a look into the Chinese. They are making very good pianos now and this model, will probably be comparable or even better than the Yamaha U1 or Kawai K-3. And I am just being humble as I think it should be able to match the YUS or K8 - at least spec wise. LOL..

It's time to enjoy!

Will post another one about my old piano - also my path of music. Need to write this down first - so I will force myself to make that post.

New Academic Year Resolution/Holiday recap

Posted: Sunday, October 3, 2010 by GGdTJJ in

(This is going to be boring. No real planning in making it fun to read though. Just more like an update?)
Alright, this post actually dues a week before, as the new academic year has already begun a week ago. But, it's not too late to write it yet, and it's important to set this up and work for it.

1. Do well on FYP and get it published.
2. Don't work hard in keeping the current ranking. Work hard instead to keep myself satisfied.
3. Complete One Piece, hopefully - along with other animes.

--------------------------------------------------------

Had had a wonderful holiday though. Completed an internship offered by the uni and get to learn new stuff, and finding myself to be quite intrigued by programming.
Modified a simple Artificial Neural Network coding into something more robust, of which it can take in values from .csv files and use it for the algorithm. The end result is rather disappointing though - which its accuracy being terrible.
Also done 3 batches of biodiesel production, too where palm, canola and waste cooking oil are all made into biodiesel. Yet to be tested, and hopefully, if tested, it would be good!
(yeah, someone has succeeded this part of the project and will continue to work on making more biodiesel and testing it)

Then, relaxing part?
Completed a lot of animes/drama, including:
1. Code Geass
2. Clannad
3. Skip Beat
4. K-ON! (K-ON!! pending)
5. Hotaru no Hikaru (J-drama) (both seasons)
5. Rinjo 2 (J-drama)
6. Fairy Tail (till latest)
7. Gurren Lagann
8. Hunter X Hunter (partially done)
9. Bleach (till latest without filler)
10. Naruto S (till latest without filler)

Also spent a chunkful of times in completing two visual novel games and one RPG game.
1. Fate/hollow ataraxia
2. Fate/stay night (of which I have spent 72 hours on it, based on the in-game timer)
3. Golden Sun The Lost Age (GBA RPG)
Not to forget the all-time commitment on the light Mousehunt on the FB platform.

Surprisingly, also take some time in learning a little bit of MATLAB. Being able to run very simple stuff, including plotting graphs, running scripts etc.

Also took on a part time job (what? when does TJJ do a part time job?) being a 'housewife assistant', helping my mum in doing house chores, with high concentration on purchasing groceries and preparing meals. Few times of gardening and sometimes cleaning of the home.

Went out quite a number of times with my friends from PD, watching quite a number of movies including the wonderful Toy Story 3.

Nevertheless, new academic year is coming, and I am feeling good for the start of it. Move on!!
Hopefully, a new piano could come. Being rather lazy in searching for one although wanting really one. LOL!

ENTJ to INTJ?

Posted: Friday, September 10, 2010 by GGdTJJ in

Oh well, did the Myers-Briggs test and found myself is INTJ, looking back to my older post - I was an ENTJ. Post can be found here.

So, NTJ sounds quite firm to myself, but E and I. I have no idea.
Any experts to diagnose and let me know?

If you are interested about INTJ, read: here
You might find yourself nodding your head along reading and say "ya lo ya lo, he's that kind of person."

You can try the test here.
Enjoy!

Another New Skin

Posted: Wednesday, August 18, 2010 by GGdTJJ in

Okay, as titled, and this time is a custom made skin. Credits can be found at the bottommost of the page. Just click the 'End' key on your keyboard will bring you there at the exact instant.

If you like it, you can get it here.

This skin is also identical to the blog called "Guide to Mousehunt".

Pick this skin for its great colour blend and also a wide width, suiting my taste more.

Anyway, read the next post. A great post by me, about some of the my anecdotes. Hope you enjoy.
