Holly Thursday

Today is Holly Thursday... and I still have a class this night .....aarrrrgh....

Holly Thursday is also called Maundy Thursday. This is an event in Catholic religion which commemorated the mystery of the Holy Eucharist,  the washing of the Disciples' feet by Jesus, Jesus prayed in Gethsemane before He caught and the betrayal of Christ by Judas.

A picture of the Holy Eucharist was created by Simon Ushakov which titled "The Mystical Supper". This picture was inspiring "Tempo" magazine to put Suharto's face on Jesus's face. hiks... it doesn't matter for me... and perhaps for other Catholic people. No..no.. I don't want to talk about that... 

"The Last Supper" or "The Mystical Supper" also inspiring Dan Brown on writing his novel (ups I forgot the title...) which was controversial at that time.

Maundy Thursday is actually a start on "Easter Triduum" or three holy days (Maundy Thursday, Good Friday and Easter (Am I right?).... Oh so tomorrow I must do a fasting? yeah... sure, hehe....

Wondering to go to Church with Ling and Andra... It would be nice.... 

My first Easter as a father, as a husband, as foreigner, in Aussie, alone... uh.... life is nice.

New Macbook + Free IPOD

Curious about Macbook, I bought a macbook yesterday... Studying computing and doing an IT business really give me spirit to learn new things just like this new mac. Buy new macbook and IPOD on student price (which is 100$ cheaper, but still... for me actually, still too expensive), I will get cash back for the IPOD price (I mean 4G IPOD price - I have 8G so I need to pay 50$ more).

What I did to my macbook for the first time was installing ubuntu on to it. It was easy, everything works well but wireless and sound which are easy to be solved. Then, as that was the first time I touch macbook, I logged in to mac OS and try to install everything that I need including VirtualBox (virtualization software so you can run windows or linux inside OSX). Again, that was easy and straight forward. Everything was OK and... dear, OSX was a great operating system. It's simple, easy to understand and use.... and the most important, it's a UNIX derivative, means I still able to do anything about UNIX. 

I have 3G RAM from my old laptop, since those are the same specification with MAC's memory, I tried to install it and wew... it was working....... Now I have 3G memory which boosts up my MAC...

Have a plan to buy new laptop? why not trying Macbook....? It's gorgeous. Don't worry about support to windows, etc... it's well supported. Try for half an hour and you'll be wondered to have one. hiks

My next project :

 - research on Demographic map (GIS) using open source software

 - Build AdandSell Job site, so you can find or place jobs on that site freely

 - Moving all AdandSell site to new, faster and bigger server in Australia

Hopefully this macbook can improve my performance in research and study, hihihihi.... thanks for my wife and son who always support me.. I promise to do all my best for you. I do love you guys.
