Ohayo Minasan, It means good morning, everyone in Japanese. Why am I typing in Japanese? Because I CAN! I am the blogger after all. So I can type whatever I want. Its called Kebebasan Bersuara. Of course you bebas bersuara, but after you bersuara you won't be bebas...Why do I always start my blog with being out of topic..? Same question I ask myself every single day...And I just obtained the answer today, which is BECAUSE I CAN!!! Muahahahahahaha.
Back to business, Am pretty sure most of you people out there heard of Google Street View, It allows an immersive view of an Landscape. Technology is getting pretty cooler and cooler day by day, if this keeps up. We might be able to stroll at a park without even leaving our computer. Now that is a future I am waiting for.. Maybe I can go to class without even leaving the comfort of my sofa...Oh wait There have a technology for that already...
There are plenty of way Google did this trick. They mount a camera on top of a car and drive it around while the camera constantly snapping pictures all around it. But that is not the only way, there are tons of other ways Google was able to achieve this. Such as mounting a Camera on a back of a person. And that certain person can stroll around a park while the Camera constantly snap pictures.
For now, 18 of Malaysia's top popular places can be viewed via Google Street View, the list goes as follows ;)
Anyway, As some of you might know and some of you might not know and some of you might not even care in the first place, but I live in a Country called Malaysia. Some people in the world might not have heard of it in the. But Malaysia is located north of Singapore and South of Thailand, Google it up if you don't know. Google is everything now days anyway. Don't know the answer for something. Google it up. And thus the main question arise..When will Google Street View is available in Malaysia. Before that, lets dive in more detail about Google Street View should we? As you know Google Street View snaps a full 360 sphere shaped photo and combine all of them to create a virtual environment where you can navigate.

Hello dear readers, we meet again. I am actually impressed you are still reading my blog after all the weird stuff I have posted...Seriously..What are you doing..? Go outside, throw balls at random person instead of reading my blog which has no useful information. No seriously..not kidding..Click the 'X' button on the top right..Do it now, come on. I am saving your precious time here..Why are you still reading this? Ok wow, you're a persistent on aren't you? Come on now..Do as what the image shows..
Wow, you are still here aren't you? Ok ok fine, I get it. You want to read my blog so much ( or either you must be my lecturer and want to grade my blog :P )
Among all of the awesome features of Google Glass, Google themselves has admitted that by using Google Glass, you may strain your eyes and sooner or later you be needing a 'real' glass, worse case scenario is that you be going blind :P. So think about the future consequences before you actually try it.
What I did during Mid term holiday break( Chinese New Year)

What I did during my mid term...Seriously nothing much I can say about it..All I did was play games and do my homework. Most of the time is by doing homework though. I was still new to programming and lecturer gave a homework to program about 9-11 programs which I almost feel like banging my head on the table to make them work.
headache just trying to get the code to 'actually' work without a single mistake. I felt like my head was going to explode. But in the end the homework paid of! I was able to understand how to program better and was able to 'solve' the bugs in the program and identify the 'symptoms' of the error and automatically know what is causing the error.
Like for an example, the silly mistake which I always do. I forgot to add a '&' before the variables to save the input in. And guess what happens? This happens. The program stop responding. So anytime my code stop responding, I would know that due to this tiny little stupid problem that is causing the error.
Other than doing my homework. The only thing I did was play Skyrim. Now lets talk about skyrim now should we? Don't worry it won't be long. Will just take a day or two tops. Now..if you never heard of skyrim..You should stay inside more. Yep. Stop going outside. I tried the game called 'Reality'. The graphics was great but the story line was terrible. There aren't even respawns. Once we die, we die permanently. Believe me, outside is not as much as you think it is :P , here is a picture to prove it ----------------->
Lucky for me I have one or two private tutors for programming (muahahaha) but still it was a

Pictures never lies right? :P
