Finally, Blogger Beta now bring back the support for html editing. I have been waiting for this feature to customize the new template so that I can take advantage of the new features and yet retain my just updated blog design. However, the fine print for the html editing is that the template language is now completely different, so users beware. I immediately head over to my test blog and check it out, and it is true, very different than before. There is now “b:” “section” and “widget.” So I …

Finally have the chance to see the movie Producers last night. I don’t have any expectation since I didn’t watch the Broadway show, and the cast was alright, no one I really really like is in it. And after watching, all I can said is this is probably the gayest, campiest movie I ever saw!! It’s gayer than a lot of gay movies that the intended audience are gay! (Trust me, i’ve seen my share of gay movies.) That gay Hilter in the movie is gayer than Chris …

Love hurts, everyone eventually figure that out by themselves. Everyone got their share of heartbreaks. But everyone deal with it differently.
Some people’s response to a heartbreak is to put armor on themselves, put a protective shield around them, become so careful that no one could come close. Some people take the other route, they completely open themselves up, whoring around because they rather enjoy sex than thinking about love. They figure that they won’t get hurt if they don’t invest their feelings. There is no …

The Emmy Awards is probably one of the most annoying award show out of the pack. It’s never satisfying, many well-deserved shows were never even on the radar screen, whoever won the award will probably won again and again for the next 5 years until that show got off the air.This year, it hasn’t change, and probably got worst with the new system when the nomination list excluded well-deserved shows that are hugely popular, aka Lost! The ignored shows are still being ignored. (Gilmore Girls is way funnier …

Just switched to Blogger beta. You probably won’t notice any difference at all. All their new features for the reader side needed to use the new template, but the new template is not allowing html edit for now, so I am not switching until they do. So most of the changes I see right now is on the publishing side. Most noticeable is I don’t need to republish to the whole blog or the index all the time, and the Dashboard is much more useful. …

Apple issued a recall for the batteries of ibook and powerbook. I am unfortunately one of the affected user. Actually, think about it, it’s not unfortunate at all! I will have a brand new battery!! woohoo! Besides, the exchange process is painless, just fill out the form on the website, they will send me a new battery, then I just use the same package to send my old one in. It’s as easy as it gets. If I am one of those brave ones, I would …

I found this entirely by accident. I have no idea why it is created, the site creator is French (or at least Canadian French), there isn’t any explanation why he create this webpage that can display the album art of the most played albums for Last.fm users. Anyway, it’s cool and fun. But there’s still many questions, like why are some album are highlighted with color? Why is the see Friends’ cover not working? Who the heck is C and h h? they are not my …

Apple and Creative settles their legal disputes; Apple will pay Creative $100 million for license fee for the recently awarded patent Creative got; Creative has joined Apple’s “Made for ipod” program and will manufacture ipod accessories.
That’s the headline for today, and to that, I said BOO!!! Did you see Creative’s shameless statement saying that the licensing payment will contribute a certain earnings per share to their current quarter? Sure, that’s the way to earn money instead of making great products! To lock up patents and litigate! How ironic their …

My dearest M,
I can’t imagine what you are going through right now. It’s not easy for those left behind, losing someone so close to you.
In your time of sadness, my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.
love,

Monday is always a frustrating day for lunch/dinner because of my work schedule. I work from 1:30 til 9:30 at night, my so called lunch break is at 3, and that is my only break time. So naturally, I ate at noon as “lunch” and ate at 3 as “dinner”. But you can imagine at 3 I really didn’t feel like eating a lot at all, and yet if I don’t eat anything I’ll be starving since I have another 6 hours to go. Everytime when I …
