Ok, Been trying todo a integration module for our portal with these 2 APIs.
Problem that is giving me a headache: Do you choose a pair of expensive office shoes to wear while wandering outside in the wild?
The more I do this project, the more mismatch I feel on the technology being used. From the first module I done till the current module I'm doing, I been wondering... Do we bend technology to match our requirements, or do we choose technology based on our requirements? Personally I believe in the latter concept. I mean, trying to mine data outta these 2 social networking site API (which was meant for making drag and drop applications in their website) really makes me feel like I'm hunting for rabbits using a fishing rod. And the SSO (Single Sign On) requirement is really cracking my head. How do you make a autologin to these 2 sides, when these 2 sides obviously designed their entry point to their damn API so you can't do so?
On other matters, just receive the call I been waiting for since almost 1 whole week. My daydream continues, for now. More hope, more heartbreak later... I'm hoping more and more... Goin to be a rough crash and burn later... *Sigh*... Why can't I deattach from giving hope into this matter...

The most as you'll ever go
Is back where you used to know
If grown-ups could laugh this slow
Where as you watch the hour snow
Years may go by
So hold on to your special friend
Here, you'll need something to keep her in :
"Now you stay inside this foolish grin ... "
Though any day your secrets end
Then again
Years may go by
You saved your own special friend
'Cuz here you need something to hide her in
And you stay inside that foolish grin
When everyday now secrets end
Oh and then again
Years may go by
I walk a lonely road
The only one that I have ever known
Don't know where it goes
But it's home to me and I walk alone
I walk this empty street
On the Boulevard of Broken Dreams
Where the city sleeps
and I'm the only one and I walk alone
I walk alone
I walk alone
I walk alone
I walk a...
My shadow's the only one that walks beside me
My shallow heart's the only thing that's beating
Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me
'Til then I walk alone
Ah-ah, Ah-ah, Ah-ah, Aaah-ah,
Ah-ah, Ah-ah, Ah-ah
I'm walking down the line
That divides me somewhere in my mind
On the border line
Of the edge and where I walk alone
Read between the lines
What's fucked up and everything's alright
Check my vital signs
To know I'm still alive and I walk alone
I walk alone
I walk alone
I walk alone
I walk a...
My shadow's the only one that walks beside me
My shallow heart's the only thing that's beating
Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me
'Til then I walk alone
Ah-ah, Ah-ah, Ah-ah, Aaah-ah
Ah-ah, Ah-ah
I walk alone
I walk a...
I walk this empty street
On the Boulevard of Broken Dreams
Where the city sleeps
And I'm the only one and I walk a...
My shadow's the only one that walks beside me
My shallow heart's the only thing that's beating
Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me

Just receive a telephone call just now... 0.01% that finally a significant event is about to happen in my f*cked up life. Dun wanna put too much hope, got the feeling I will burn my fake wings while trying to fly too near to the sun towards heaven, I will then come crashing down to the earth... Like most of the times I put too much hope in something...
Wow... Damn exhausted. Just ran a 100 meter dash awhile ago. Feels like my heart is pumpin blood like crazy right now. To feel yourself running forward with all ur might... With the wind breezing across ur face, ur not cutting through the wind, ur the wind. Every step u take, ur movement and hearts pump blood faster and faster. Your vision becomes blur, your surrounding no longer matters, nothing does... Your lungs starts to fail u, u find it harder and harder to suck in air into ur hungry for oxygen lungs, for every breathe u take. Ur legs starts to ache, Ur head starts to feel giddy. Ur speed starts to slow down. Ur body wan u to stop, but ur brain pumped with adrenaline is shouting "FASTER! FASTER!". Your body just can't take anymore, Mind over matter. Body over mind. You slow down before finally come to a jarring halt. Ur breathe is furious, so is the sharp pain shooting up ur leg's muscle. Your mind is no longer operating. Your body is now in control, and it wants one thing, oxygen.
Frankly speaking, I had long held a strong opinion towards Academic Kiasus especially helicopter parents tat seems so sure that by pushing their children toward excelling academically will guarantee a happy future. Wat I would like to ask these parents are "Why the f*ck are u sending ur children to get education to begin with?" For one bloody stupid cert with the word master/degree/diploma? (Y waste time and effort? Just buy one la...) Or so that ur children is equipped with the proper knowledge to overcome challenges in their f*ckin life? Think I'm nuts? Maybe... But hey, big news, where the dude tat had a royal flush of A's in all his f*ckin subject tat aspires to be Bill Gates? Beats me... I ain't so f*ckin stupid to waste me time finding out wtf happen to him. But I sure know he ain't a Uncle Bill right now... Pushing is okay, Obsession is plain straight wrong. Some ppl are just so f*ckin lazy (Eg: Uncle Kyuzo) to the extend they need someone to push em, but there always a limit to how much we should push em.
If u plan to protect ur child all the way, I say "Ur not going to be always there to protect them for every piece of crap life throws at them". Might as well let them fall now and then. Let em learn, "Whenever you fall, u just get right up". Parents should encourage their child to take up any activities tat they find interesting (Eg: Chess, Football, Manga, Snooker, Smooking, P0rn, etc). Such thing I think is important as it exposes them to all sort of possibilities so when they're old enuff, they have a rough idea of the things they like todo with their life. U definitely dun wan to constraint them to super dull and lame after school activities like tuition, piano classes (Unless they like it), and etc. Common, All Play and No Study makes Ah Boy/Gal a Dumb retard but All Study and No Play makes Ah Boy/Gal a Dull retard.
My imagination dictates I be a f*ckin super coolz father/dad tat would encourage my bloodline with the advice "I already provided u with 2 of the best things a parent can give to their child, freedom to do wtf u wan with ur life and my superb genetic codes that cover leng chainess (Leng chainess lies in the eye of the beholder), superb physical (Round down the tummy) and 180 IQ brain power. Wat I can't impart to u is my wisdom, tat u need to obtain urself in ur own way. May the Force be with u. ". However reality dictates I be a lame ass parent tat is too lazy to be bother with wat my bloodline is doing with their life. So I cleverly dun have any plan to be one....

Yea, yea... just need to b*tch to release STRESS...!!! Been assigned Facebook + Friendster integration module a couple of weeks ago. Rnd tis stuff and making utilities package to access data from these two sides. Problem is their API ain't meant for 3rd party like us to abuse. Simple example is we need the user's friend mail coz our application need to spam em. Unfortunately, or rather lucky for these social networking users, the brains behind these API are smart enuff not to exposed the emails field. My observation is that these API is more meant for those application that can be drag and drop inside ur profile rather a 3rd party that pool data from them to do crap (That's us, bravo, bravo...). Anyway 4 new collegues today, 3 in our team. Since not enuff space de our table, had to move 2 of them to other group table. Sort of missed my old cubicle compared to this open table seating. Common, with a ctv practically behind my back, I'm screwed. Can't do many illegal stuff while work. Sienz jor lor...
Meanwhile my attempts to Prison Break meanwhile is in the loop. Been one messy procedure. HR informed me my contract is a 1 year contractual one. I was under the impression contractual means, I got a job for 1 year. After 1 year, they may or maybe not renew my contract. I mean apart of that fact, it never occured to me, I would lose my common rights as a normal employee like resigning. Never thought contractual means "BOND". If I knew, I would done wat I done to the Sunway offer. Reject it on the spot. Never like the concept of "BOND", Not that tis current company is not good but maybe cause Bond sounds like Bondage. Now waiting HR to discuss with Big Boss on my contract. Have a very bad feeling bout this crap. Ironic part is I ain't even confirmed. Means no crap like allowance, pocket money, Mercedes Benz...
So lesson learned, Contractual = Bond. These thing exists for a good reason. I mean employer need to protect themselves. Common... We live in the era of capitalism, we're investments in the eye of our employers. Truth be told, I just prefer to stay in a company because I love it there rather than stay there because my contract says so.
