Duplicate entries in graduate study registration

Today, I get a personal leave for graduate study registration. I buy a document (one hundred baht). The authority tells me (and all students) to complete whole documents not lately than tomorrow. (So they can send documents to registration department on time on this Friday.)

What I've found in documents are a lot of data duplication. There is a green form called OPR that is used by computer system. (The computer will scan this form reading pencil spots.) This form asks a lot of questions about me and my parent. There are paper form asking this similar things. I've to fill-in my citizen ID for 5 times! Moreover, I've files my parent data about 3 times!

I think there should be only 3-4 forms and they must not ask this kind of things more than 2 times.

Google Maps doesn't know Talingchan Bus Terminal!

Yesterday, I went to Talingchan Bus Terminal with my colleague. My colleague is now working for Southern part of Thailand for months and it is time to go back. This is my first time at Talingchan Bus Terminal and I'm not sure where it is. So, I picked up my iPhone, connect to Edge, then open Google Maps. I tried to use locate me feature to see where I was but it couldn't find the location. Very funny, I tried about five times in different parts of the station but still get no result.

Even though it can find my home, it cannot find the bus terminal!?!

iTunes + NOD32 + Vista = Boom!

I've filed a bug to ADC about iTunes keep crashing on Vista. They asked me to send crash log back. I've done that and yesterday they sent me a mail saying that it is a failure of IMON.

So I reconfigure IMON to ignore an iTunes and the crash is gone! I start Library sharing again and it is no longer crash after iTunes is trying to shutdown.

Good gift from ADC. Thanks. May be this is a bug for NOD32 on Vista. I should upgrade it soon.

Water Festival in Bangkok

It's April 14. This period in Thailand is an original new year period (April 13 to April 15). Actually it is not a water festival but surrounding is so hot so we use water to chill out. A lot of water activities here like shower Bhuddha image, shower our parent, and the famous one, shower together (with some kinds of water weapon, powder, ice, etc.).

Yesterday, I walked to Khao Sarn road. It is near my home since I am living near Banglumphu. I picked up my iPhone (sealed in medicine zip pack) and took photos. Actually it is my merit to go there every year to eat ice cream. (I always go there to eat Swensen.) Through out the way, there were a lot of water wars but not so many like many previous year. It may cause by a powder forbidden around Khao Sarn road area, water carrier vehicles forbidden or any other reasons. I still found those kinds of thing near my home. (Bless of Thai law.)

Even though a lot of restriction there, we still have fun. See pics.
