音時雨 ～Regentropfen～

LONE TIME NO WRITING! and almost forgot how to correctly spell the word "writing" in upper case. ^^;

But it doesn't mean I did nothing in May so that I had nothing to write. In the opposite site, I did A LOT, and thus I never ever got a chance to focus on making a decent blog post.

So let me re-organise myself here, as well as for a good wrapping up of May 2013.

Like what I've mentioned in April (or maybe March), I was launching the "sharky" project. However, I'm aware of being lacking certain knowledge to build up everything from scratch (even though I wish that was not true!). So, during the entire month, I spent most of the time learning/improving my programming skill. More exactly, I started learning Perl, a not-so-hard but powerful and ready-to-be-used language.

Good thing was I did have programming experience. I used to be able to use C years ago, but now nothing specific in C I can recall, except some commonly shared ideas, like how to design your script and make it flow. Yet such remainder reduced quite a lot of time I spent on reading--I actually ignored all after-reading exercises from that book. Here, I guess, one of the main reason that I forgot almost all about C was I don't know why I would use it. This time, before I decided to touch Perl, I've already got the idea what kind of things it can do and what kind of tasks I want to complete. I had thoughts, which made the study progress much easier than just reading books and doing exercises--To me, text-book exercises may help, but it may change my life if the practice can satisfy my own needs.

Just right after I decided to learn Perl, something exciting popped up in my mind: I was gonna name all my scripts in the format of "ar tonelico song magic"!
and it's how my scripts ended up like:

↑ it does look good!

You might have noticed, the folder name for all coding stuff is "alchemy"--'cause I think coding is like magic, you mix different letters, and you can make computer work for you! I also have multiple perl modules, under the folder "_atelier". They were named like "method_xxxx.pm". Hmmm, exec and method, although the set up is kinda different from the real A.T. world, sometimes you do need to modify things to fit your own requirements, don't you?

One more thing about my named scripts. There is one module file that I used for collecting all individual module files together. By doing so I don't have to include everything in each of my scripts. I simply need to include this master library then everything will be set up. You see the exec_library_fyusion.pl? That master file is called "method_library_fyusion.pm", and this "exec" was written to auto update the "method", so I have a quick index of what subs I have inside of each single module.

Anyway, I have so much of fun with programming--much, much more than doing biology.

Finally, about the book I'm reading.

↑ which is this guy. I do admit it's a good start to me. Now I'm finishing up the final chapter, probably will proceed to the next one soon, which is about mastering perl for bioinformatics (from tadpole to frog!). Then, back to my project, so far I'm not sure what kind of language I should use to build up everything--CGI or PHP. Since I know nothing about either of them, I don't really care. Perl was just a beginning, I didn't mean to learn perl only for using cgi, so I'm totally okay to use php. But somewhat I feel like the letter combination of php doesn't look as cool as cgi, so I'm a little lost.

Or maybe it's too early to worry about this. I can't really choose unless I know both of them! XD

P.S. I learned so much Perl that a few days ago I thought "#xxx" was a piece of comment in css before recalling that was used for define "id" tags! :P

It started raining a lot since last week, and I got super excited.
Rainy days are neat. No bright sunlight that can hurt your eyes, the weather is not hot; the air is sweet when it's raining, and the sound of rain is beautiful; also, there is no static during raining days (you know what I'm saying if you have long hair)!!

Generally, raining makes me happy; and I tend to enjoy dark songs much more than sunny days. So if you see someone laughes serectly on the street, that's me.

From Annabel x myu's sexy collaboration to Akiko's Umineko series or Noriko's "vierge automatique". The category of dark songs spread among my music library. Although sometimes, I may play some brighter songs like KOKIA's "vintage love", the first three examples will be played 95% of the raining period.

The thing is, this kind of songs will multiply the reveries in my mind!

It was on this Tuesday. It rained again in the morning; back to that time, I found a new post about Opera Next's beta release!! I gave it a try immediately. Overall it was quite good, but some features I love for current Opera were missing there. Hope they can bring them back later. What I wanted to say was, together with Opera Next release, I decided to go back to My Opera blog service.

Long time ago, I wanted a place to keep my random thoughts. They would be short and incomplet, don't fit real blog post and such. Most microblogging services are rubbish at this point, you can't write too much (you can only write LITTLE). Some of them can hold more text, but you can't fully customise your page, some are okay for both skin and text amount, but they have a poor editor (wysiwyg go hell!). Plus my love to MyO, I decided to bring my sealed MyO back to life; this time, I'm turning it to my private lunatic nest--I write all my crazy dreams(delusions) there.

Also, I think I've never said it before, MyO's about page is my current favorite place for self intro. I'm not good at writing self-intro at all, but MyO provides some fun questions, which made my life easier. Thus, after spent sometime re-designing a quick-and-to-be-modified template, I'll link it here, and also replace the link to my current "about" page~

Alright, I think I've written a lot. Before I end this post, there is the last thing to mention.

Again, it's about my MyO intro page. I caught this test from someone's intro page, so I did it too, and...
The result sounds pretty interesting, and I also got a general picture of these three words (which were somehow all new to me!).

No matter whether this test is logically made or just for fun, I'm pleased and will end this post right here~ (￣ー￣)ﾆﾔﾘ
