Good evening people! Currently its 10:33pm on my clock and I’m typing this post earlier than my usual time of around 11+pm, cause currently I have some free time so might as well make the best out of my time.
I woke up feeling extremely lack of sleep again. Currently I have about seven and a half hours of sleep each day.
Weird! Why do I still constantly feel so sleepy? I guess my sleep debt has accumulated so much that I think I need more sleeping hours then what I have currently.
Oh well never mind then back to the story.
I went to school again to resume my Java competition project with my team members. I mentioned in my previous post that I was having difficulty installing some applications on that awful Solaris operating system so Nithy and I tackle this problem today.
Well what can I say man!
Nithy and I both managed to install all the critical applications that allow my project to run on Solaris! Nithy got the database software running while I got the programming software up!
Praise the Lord!
Two brains are definitely better than one! LOL.
Man it took us quite some time for both of us was unfamiliar with the Solaris environment.
Just in case you the reader were thinking what’s so difficult in installing just two programs, let me tell you that whatever you do in Solaris, it is done by COMMAND LINE INTERFACE!
Yes you’ve read correctly, even though the new Solaris 10 has a fantastic graphical user interface (GUI), we still have to do everything by commands.
But I can say that those great guys back at Sun still did a good job of increasing our productivity by having this wonderful GUI!
Windows (especially Windows XP) is soooooooo user friendly that I almost cry once I’ve returned back to using Windows XP. LOL.
So if you’re reading my blog on a Windows platform you better appreciate it regardless of all those bad mouthing about Microsoft alright!
Anyway life constantly has tests to strengthen you.
Even though the applications are working the project that I’ve transferred to Solaris isn’t.
It’s alright for God is always with me and guiding me. I’ll try to solve those again later or tomorrow.
Thank God once again for we ended the meeting early today. I went back home to catch up on some loss sleep. Woke up feeling a little better and continued with my work.
And more problems came up.
The updated files done by Yik Loong, my team member wasn’t working on my laptop. I couldn’t solve the references problems that occurred.
My dad came chasing after me for his China videos. I have to explain to him EXTREMLY slowly about why it is taking so long.
Hey, try converting a 30GB RAW video into an avi format after editing and again convert it to a DVD format suitable for playback on DVD players and you’ll understand what I mean.
Anyway, with yet still much problems unsolved, I left some processes running and went to take a bath.
Half way throughout my bath, God told me, “DON’T GIVE UP!”
Wow. That really rejuvenates me man.
Oh yeah the surprising thing was, I don’t understand why I always get ideas and solutions for problems whenever I am in the toilet. LOL.
I always do short prayers whenever I go, so to all my Christian friends reading, you’ll never know when miracles from God might come from all those short prayers.
Prayer is actually talking to God so constantly updating God whatever good or bad things happen is good for He will rather we run to Him than running away from Him.
God’s ways and miracles will always come right on time when you need Him the most.
Anyway, I’m going back to doing my work now.
Thank you for reading my blog.
Spirit of God will always be with you. Amen.
