Geek Attack.

I must admit it is also nice to stay home on weekends once in a while to catch up with my readings of tech. blogs, sleep, and watch animes, doing geeky stuffs. Especially when there's nobody to hang out with. =p

Below is my list of tech. blogs bookmarks (mostly on GUI and best practices). I try to read them whenever I have time (eg. NOW). =p Started my own tech. blog with my girlfriend last year, which is sorta abandoned now as I lost the initial zeal. It is just too tedious to update and I don't really know much to share. Hah hah. Tho' nobody is reading or writing, we have a "mirror" site in Wordpress here. It's much easier to just write nonsense and complain lah... Perhaps I will revive it one day. Or if there's anyone out there who would like to be a co-author, do let me know!

I am putting this entry as a perm. link (see the side bar? along with the "Bday Wishlists", "Favourite Entries", and whatever-lists) so that you can check back this entry again to see what are the tech. blogs I am currently reading. Will update the bookmarks periodically too!

The Bridal Dowry.

The delivery of dowry ( 送嫁妆 ) is another important custom. It represents parent's effort for her daughter to have a good life after marriage and prepare her with the necessities for being a good wife. I am amazed by some of the things included in the dowry. Of course, in our modern living, we will not be using some of those things... Nevertheless, I think it is all good to have them, as each item carries a good meaning for our blissful marriage. :-)

If you have it, just flaunt it.

Its such a lousy day, I have decided to blog another entry. Yesh, I am thinking about things other than my last two papers on Thurs and Friday. Something probably talked alot before by many people... What is it with men and women with 可爱-oooii *杨丞琳's voice* face, long tresses, slim legs, curvey body, in revealing tight clothes (only for those with the former characteristics), in pink. Why are men so attracted to those features? The guy is lying if he says he will not turn his head when he sees women with those features. I think it has nothing to do with men being lustful or anything disgusting. It probably has something to do with the genes, the hormones. I don't believe it has to do with things like its men's nature instinct to look for partners who can reproduce blahblahblah. That's so boring! Its something mysterious, something that let men derives pleasure by just looking openly, without doing anything bad or harmful or immoral. Do women ogle at men all the time too...

What Do You Think?

What makes a good leader? Some will say a good leader is someone who can bring the best out of his/her people. How do you bring the best out of his/her people? Some will say by giving pointers and guidance.  How do you give pointers and guidance? Some will talk. In fact, most will just talk.  I think a good leader should be someone who walk the talk, not just talk. A good leader gets his/her hands dirty to show his/her people the way. Some may say this is spoon-feeding. I think otherwise. For example, if your staff ask you for guidance on work, most bosses would dispense some wise words, "Do this, look out for this, highlight this...". At the end of the day, the staff will come back to the bosses with the work and bosses will say, "no no, do this, not that". I would think a good leader should draft out the frame on the actual work (may it be slides or documents), then dispense his words of wisdom. The staff will do his/her thinking along that frame and f...
