The most stressful thing in this week could be in Friday evening when I carelessly typed the SQL statement "UPDATE table SET XX=YY" withOUT appending "WHERE id=xxx". I even wondered after hit enter, that why it took so long to execute this simple command, but soon I realised the irreversible mistake.
At that very moment, my brain felt being stung and squeezed -- perhaps close to the state of being flash-bolted by Seb's agony crossbow, which also because I knew I didn't have any acceptable SQL dump.
Fortunately, quickly I recalled just at the noon, there was a chunk of probably useful custom exported data I did at noon, and things I've affected on the remote DB could be extracted from it. So the issue was solved, sort of. Things for myself, that even after the recovery, I can't assure it's 100% good, but... I'll only say it here. ~_~

Therefore, as a way of letting off steam, I once again began to challenge PsychoBreak AKUMU, which has been pending for a while. It's hard, really hard, although I can't tell which is harder comparing to Silent Hill 2's 10-star result (because I can't do it yet). Last time I stopped in front of the shutter that first time releases Trauma to players. With the long time rest, I had less hard time to pass it, and surprisingly, in the next stage with two zombies + two traumas, I went through without problem at my first try, which was simply shock bolt + throwing all my 5 grenades + one fully upgraded harpoon bolt << apparently I didn't know whether I missed or not, as I was always in panic at this difficulty. But just due to the large consumption of ammo, I redid this checkpoint, which went better: shock bolt + 2 grenades + a few shotgun shells.
Then, Laura again! I had to finish it in two days with a good rest -- I've already lost count in how many times I ran into my unexpected death due to bear traps, bombs or whatever. Although I attempted to burn her up, I quickly gave up as I felt it would be so hopeless in AKUMU. I got stuck in Friday night, and finished within 3 tries in the next day. The following boss stopped my Saturday progress, but still, I passed it on Sunday within 5 tires.
I do believe such a longer rest yields a better condition to pass.
And thus, I wish I can pass the sequence with waves of zombies with fireworks, rifles, and machine-guns in next week easier!

Some handmade grissini for today (finally I can use up my bottle of rosemary that has literally expired many years)!
And, time to say good-bye to Canon IXUS210 and say hello to Sony DSC-HX400!
↓ It's a rainy evening, with these dark clouds.

Thanks to "Mastering Digital Cameras" and Mastering Aperture, Shutter Speed, ISO and Exposure, I feel much better with most settings on the new HX400, in which many were not available on IXUS210. That author also had books on how to take good photos, but I personally prefer to only get the basic knowledges from experts, as for the artistic aspects of a photo, I'd rather find the way of expression by myself -- Every one is different!
Nonetheless, no matter what, I can't switch to flickr even though its 1TB storage sounds delicious. ^^;

Finally, the make up of the "lantern-motif" drawing is going well, although showing the sign of moving into a more fantasy-ish atmosphere instead of a retro, Orient and even "grotesque" one.
