Hit Counter

By the way...if you are a regular who visits my blog frequently...you would have notice something new by the right.

In fact 2 things...

One..the MAC list of my entries...

Two...A HIT COUNTER!

The hit counter is really there to show me if anyone visit my blog...
But myself alone....contributes to 50% of the count figure.
How sad.
Hopefully...tomolo...You,YOU,you,YoU and yOU will see my blog.

Good night.

Progressing...

Eversince I bought my MAC...
I felt reincarnated.

Things that i have been procrastinating to do...
Are done gradually...
Because I no longer have excuse not to do it.

I delayed setting up my website because my old laptop is aging...
Delay Publishing my book becos of the same reason...
NOT Do my solo...because the above is not done...and of course no proper working space...
and also no video editing software...
Did not go swimming because so much other things can' t be done and dun have the mood.
Can't do yoga for the same above reason...
And CAn't cut my hair becos I dun have video editing software to edit the video of myself cutting my hair...

And so...after buying myself such a BIG present to block my own excuses...
I no longer have reasons for not working.
Except for limited physical working space for sculpting....
I AM NOW WELL SPACED AND READY to do my work virtually.

Of course...I stil need a tiny bit more...to complete the virtual work space...
That is...the ADOBE CS master collection and hopefully...FINAL CUT PRO


Soon...
I will set up my website...
Publish my book...
Do my solo...
Go swimming...
Do yoga...

and last but not least...

CUT MY HAIR.

Can't wait.

Obsessed with tagging....

Because I always appear to be messy...
People are convinced that I am.
But deep down in my heart...
I am an obsessive...

If I ever sit down to organise things...
I am afraid that I might over categorise, tagg and classify my stuff.
I am actually quite a perfectionist also.
And if I started something I will want to finish it with grace.
And precisely because of this...I do not dare to start too much things.
I am afraid...it will become endless.

Like my new obsession to organise my music files....2000 over of mp3...
I almost have to go thru every single music file to make sure they are tagged and titled, rated, with artist name and album name...as detail as I can... clear up a whole chunk of duplicate accumulated for years and put them in the right files...

Next thing...will be my photo files....20,000 plus....it will be crazy.

But I look forward.

Mac Tricks-How to hide HD from desktop.

Have you ever felt irritated by the HD icon on the desktop...that destroy the cleanliness of the desktop...if you u happen to have an empty one like mine.

Well...I thought it would be simple to just trash it...to remove it
BUT NO!

After some googling....it is actually not difficult either.


Go to ----> FINDER-----> PREFERENCE ------> uncheck the "Show The...HD".

And you are done.

It is not difficult.
You just have to find out how.
That's all.

Love Marriage!

By the way, this is the poster for the korean drama...
Did you notice her hair...
Natural curl!

Same as ME ME ME!

Yeah!

Love Marriage!



This is the man of my latest Korean drama fever...

Kim Ji Hoon

And I was trying to describe him to Wendy as someone who is a cross between...
Jang Dong Gun, Lee Dong Gun, Song Seung Heon and Kwon Sang Woo.
I was being accused of showing off my knowledge of korean drama man's name and anyhow bring out names describe this male lead...
But seriously...think about it...

Jang Dong Gun's facial shape...and chin...
Lee Dong Gun's Hair..
Song Seung Heon's eyebrows and lips
And Kwon Sang Woo's eye!

Right?Right?right?


Okok....I got to go back watching my drama...BYEEEE!

Interesting architecture...

Somewhere in the middle of Tokyo...
You will find this simple yet interesting architecture...
which would be lovely..if it is my art studio.
Dream on...

This is ME?!

This could be me if I am born 50 years ago...or maybe me 50 years later...
That spec really suits me...dun you think?

Go try it!

itune...

It took me the whole day to try to sort out my itune.
Of course...there are things I am quite uphappy about my itune.

There are defaults that I do not like.

itune FORCED me to file my music according to artist.

Maybe I do have the rights to change that default...
But Since I have already got used to the system...I guess that should be alright.
Just that most of my music comes in album...mostly soundtracks..
Filing by artist is just silly.

I shall try to see if I can have alternative.

SWITCH! + Flip4mac

SWITCH is the program that will help you convert your WMA to MP3...
unfortunately....you also have to download another pluggin to ensure it works ..
and that will be flip4mac...which is a program directly from microsoft...
which will prompt you to upgrade and PAY.

It works though, with this 2 programs I manage to convert my wma file to mp3.
However, switch hanged while i install flip4mac...
And usually my MAC will hang whenever anything MS is working.
So after i convert my file...
I decided to remove SWitch and flip4mac COMPLETEly.

By the way...if switch is independent of flip4mac...
I would have keep it...becos the icon is a switch button..
which is kind of cute :)

That all for today's Mac troubleshoot.
