（比较技术性的废话）奇怪的标题，不过很贴切的描述我的眼睛的状况。这几天因为要最后冲刺我的Final Year Project，所以常常不够睡，in fact，从旅行回来开学后，够睡的日子好像并没有很多。所以最显著的效果，就是人大概憔悴了一些，也瘦了一点点。说实在，过去的一个月疯狂Coding（也就是我为什么这个月忙碌到极点的原因）真的让我发觉前期做的System planning真的有如虚设。因为我们被要求做的东西规模很大，而我们还没有这个机会做那么大的东西，为了这个我特地按照MVC structure弄了一个架构出来，其实这个架构是我在internship写出来的，刚开始的时候的确还是足够应付我们的需求，可是到了后来，当细节开始慢慢铺陈的时候，问题就慢慢开始浮现。
天啊，巴生谷的人民到底要到什么时候才能够摆脱塞车的困扰？难道要等到太阳不再耀眼，雪山开始崩塌，河水不再川流，空气变成毒气，然后石油耗尽，到时候就不用塞车了，因为大家都不能活了。说真的，住在这里，我不说别的地方，就只说Subang Jaya好了，不知道是不是我倒霉，还是真的那么仆街，就真的什么时候出门，都会有塞车的问题。不知道那个无脑的人说过塞车是繁荣的象征，我相信他如果来Subang Jaya亲自驾驶一个星期，不要有人来开路，就算有人来开路，也未必有用，嘿嘿，我肯定他会把所有刊登那句话的报纸杂志，甚至用来浏览过那句话的电脑全部吞进去。
这几天说平静但又没有很平静，说波涛汹涌也倒还没有到这个境界。首先要说的，就是九月柬埔寨旅行的时间已经暂时决定是23/9到7/10之间，恰巧知道某廉价航空公司这段时间有promo，就赚到啦。就算到时候不去，也不过损失RM30罢了（看明白是哪一间了吗？去看报纸啦）。这算是这几天以来的第一桩好事吧，接下来也有一些好事情要和大家分享的，接着看下去吧，哈哈哈哈。
这次放假要做什么呢，感觉上会很忙。首先需要做的就是把家里的两部电脑给他refresh一下，但是首先必须先去购买一个2.5″HDD的external case，然后就要麻烦我已经阵亡的notebook吐出那块HDD出来给我用一阵子。需要做的就是把电脑内的一些资料备份出来，然后就轮流reformat一下再去tweak它们的settings。给office work用途的那部可能会分一部分出来开多一个profile给小妹用，这样就不用担心她搞砸里面的资料。至于我现在用着的这一部，就会重新把它弄美美咯（呜呜呜，好想念我以前修饰到美美的laptop windows界面）。不知道安装MacOSX会不会很麻烦？想试试看。
昨天不知道发了神经，用一个对我来说是相对比较陌生的语言写了一篇长长的post出来。其实是有感而发啦，其实也着实提醒了我为什么要读这一个科系。不是说我故意忘了，而是有时候越来越忙导致越来越盲目所以就这样忽略了。有时候我真的不知道这是不是好的现象，我发觉在我们的电脑科学系，我们学到最多的就是如何用这个这个语言去写什么什么系统，而不是如科系名字所称，去学学看到第一部电脑是如何运作。如果你是理科生，你或许会对某个问题进行很深入的学习，但是同样是打着Computer Science这个名号，我们学得最多的是——利用目前最潮的technology去做这些那些。个人感觉是有一点本末倒置。
Sometimes things makes me wonder why am I taking this “Computer Science” course where it is actually a course to teach you how to write programs. I actually expected something like how computer works in detail not programming in DEF language that is popular in demand in local business market. These few days some incidents or I shall say an article makes me think again whether my decision to take this course is a good decision. The article was recommended by my lecturer who lectures us in a subject/unit named “Internet Programming” which should be renamed as “Writting ASP.NET Websites With C#”. Although I find the unit not as interesting as I expected (because most of the things covered in the syllabus are covered again and again in some other subjects/units I took in previous semesters. It is still an interesting subject anyway, considering we have a better image of the .NET framework.)
这次更新总算是比之前的满意，当然要做的仍然很多，有任何意见欢迎随时留言。这次的设计最重要的元素是javascript的运用。你所看到的全部圆边都是经由javascript呼出来的，当然，由于我的功力有限，所以制作圆边的方式几乎是使用暴力的方法写出来的。详细的制作方法将在我完成所有的细节后再放上来吧，这个假期做得最好的恐怕就是我blog的设计了，其他的仍然是一点眉目都没有。
I got so impressed after looking at my friend’s assignment interface. It was simply just tooooooo nice. Therefore, me and my group members agreed to decorate our assignment a bit. Besides that, since we started using MDI, then the whole structure has to be revised.
We have added a navigation menu, so that the bar up there doesn’t look too plain (what an excuse). Then we added in some shortcut button suggested by one of my group members. We have also removed our so-called “logo”, since it was not so nice. And lastly, almost all buttons are now with icons so that user can see them clearly (hehehe).
Our system is usable at the moment as long as u do not key in the wrong thing (like you enter letters when you are asked to enter numeric) because we do not have time to do complete validation. We expect all the validation will be done at the time we submit our assignment though. Below are some of the screenshots taken from my assignment project. You can click on them for better enlarged view.
Wahaha, the presentation was just going fine just that our group has missed some feature that is suppose to be ready as mentioned in our proposal. Besides that, our lecturer also required us to prepare some new modules in order to make the system more complete. However, since we havn’t learn anything about MDI yet I think I will just wait until all three of us master that chapter then only we start our second version.
Our group are quite fortunate since there are not much problems occur during our presentation. The group after us keep facing technical problems and this helped the last group because they have another week to prepare for this presentation. However, if I were them I will feel a bit dissapointed. Hohoho.
Just spent half a day finishing the interface for my group’s system – library system. And since we couldnt come out with a name that is interesting, so we just simply name the system as “Up2U Library System”, sounds dumb ho…?
Showing above is the main screen interface for our system. The system is separated into 3 parts with 2 modules each. I am in charge of the administration part of the system. Following is one of the screens for my module.
Look dumb huh… Basically, since MDI is not yet taught by the lecturer and I am really to busy to learn that in advance, so I link all the interfaces with “Unload” and “Load” commands. Therefore there is nothing really special about our system. Probably after learning MDI in the coming weeks then I will convert the whole system to MDI, hehehe.
