Fleißiger Sonntag
I woke up at about 10am on Sunday I think... Did some reading of notes and fiddled with a bit of webbie stuff as usual. Yeah, I know... exam time... but fiddling with webbie stuff is my form of relaxation and maybe erm, escapism ba.
I fiddled with two new things this time. The first being a free PHP counter system from ekstreme.com. I took some time to figure out how to display the statistics the way I wanted although it seemed like a simple system :P Well, it's simple to use ba. The second is a content management system known as CuteNews. I think it's a very good system. It's very easy to customise once one gets the hang of it. I incorporated it into the myFLASHbox.sg website to handle the announcements. The main merit of both systems is that they make use of flat files (ie. text files) to store data instead of mySQL database.
Anyway, met a friend at King Albert Park McDonald's to study at night. At about 11.45pm, the manager (I think) came to inform us that they will be closing at 12 midnight because they had to do some maintenance thingy. It's supposed to be a 24-hour outlet. Hmmm, he informed us a little late I guess. Fortunately, managed to hop on to bus number 174 even though I didn't know where it was heading to (well, it will definitely bring me closer to home). Took one of the information slips they have on the bus and figured out where to alight.
We alighted off the junction of Farrer Road and Queensway and walked over to Ridout McDonald's with a big cup of ice lemon tea from the King Albert Park outlet. Rather fortunate I guess... to be able to make it without taking a cab. I think my navigation skills are not bad ba. Ha :P It was already 12.25am by the time we reached the Ridout outlet. Settled down and continued mugging till about 7.45am in the morning.
Well, came home and slept till 4pm. I've got one paper at 5pm tomorrow. Worried about this one... because it's closed book and there are a lot of facts to remember :/
