Against anxiety
Against boredom
Against failure
Against fear
Against immaturity
Against limitation
Against temptation
Against uncertainty
I will fly, to the unheard future
No matter what dark my past is
I will leave it behind
I will deal with it, without regret
So I don't burden my future with it
So I could fly without being burdened
The moment,
When imagination plays vividly inside my mind
I will save it forever
And I will use it to drive through every moment
As long as there is chance to learn, I will learn
I will redeem all my mistakes in the past
For the people who support me very much
For the people I will meet in the future
For the sake of better future!
I will fly bravely, to the unheard future
I will fly with courage, with the light wing
I will never be afraid my wing will be injured
Coz I know, no matter my wing is wounded
It will be healed and I will fly again
I've just migrated my operating system, from Windows XP that works for me faithfully for about 4 years. Actually it happens just by incidence, because my XP is broken and I don't have any idea how to repair it, and then I remember I still have Kubuntu CD that I get in a seminar one year ago. This kind of Linux has eye-catching view. Compared to Windows XP, the Kubuntu view is more like Windows Vista or Seven. Let's see picture below, Kubuntu desktop has widget feature (just like Vista and Seven):
There are two things that I like from Kubuntu view. First, desktop icon view is arranged separately from background. Moreover, we can be more flexible to arrange which item that we want to display. For example if we want to display a specific folder in the desktop, right click the Desktop Folder, then choose Folder View Setting and browse Specify a Folder. And clinkxx....all of the content within the folder is displayed.


Second, the way Kubuntu play multimedia. It's really cool!! Just point the cursor to the music file that we want to play, no need to click, and see Information part in the right side of Dolphin, click play button there and the music is played without need for calling audio software like Amarok or VLC. But remember when the music is being played, don't point the cursor to other file, unless the music that's being played is stopped because the cursor focus is changed.

Nah, because I'm a Linux newbie, I want to share about my feeling for my first time using Linux, as a newbie. Below are my “good feeling” and my “bad feeling”:
My good feeling:
- I have a chance to learn something new.
- Technician independence. It means, if I have something wrong with my operating system, I don't need to call technician anymore because I have the free Kubuntu CD.
- I don't need to worry about virus anymore.
My bad feeling:
- As a newbie, I can't be instantly convenient with all features that Linux provide. For example, I still want to play my Windows games that I installed before, such as C&C and NFSU. I also still need some Windows softwares. But fortunately there is Wine software that make me able to run some Windows software (some, not all...).
- Many file types that work in Windows don't work in Linux. For example, to play a music we usually use mp3 extension, but Linux has different default format: ogg. So you'll need additional libraries to make the mp3 file works in Linux.
- To install new software, you'll definitely need internet connection. If no, it will need very much effort. You know, in Linux if you want to install new software, you must check all dependencies the software needs. If you have internet connection, you can easily type “sudo apt-get install XXX” in the Terminal, and you'll get the software package that you want, complete with all dependencies that the software need. But if no, you must know every package that the software need.
You can search in http://packages.ubuntu.com if you use Kubuntu like me. Because Kubuntu is the child of father Ubuntu, so all the packages is same with the Ubuntu used.
To get package that you want in that site, remember:
- You should get the deb executable file (just like exe in Windows). Deb is abbreviated from Debian. Maybe you think, why Debian? Doesn't Ubuntu have its own executable file extension? The reason maybe Debian is the father of Ubuntu (and the grandfather of Kubuntu??).
- Don't forget that not just the software package have dependencies, but each subpackages have, too.
- Check the version and architecture type that your software need. If the version that you download is below the software need, it won't work.

I found a very deep-meaning song. This song, sakura no ame, is about friendship, dream, and hope.
I can't stop listening it!! When we've already became person that we dream, walk on our own career, our own life, don't forget to meet again!
Yeah, it's the lyric:

No matter how hard it hurts me.
I'll never say good bye.
Your presence will always linger in my heart.
...wanna see your smile again.

Even when we have to each walk our different path now,
we are still friends. There's no doubt about that.
Those days when we each shone in our own colors,
they now push our backs so that we can stick out our chests.
The school ground where dust flew as we competed in a race,
the uniform that we didn't wear properly because it didn't fit,
the scribbles that we wrote on the desk tops,
all of them are our testimonies.
The replies on the white paper couldn't convey completely
the amount of our memories, which are being blurred by our tears.
Being childish, we also hurt each other before.
Have we, even by a little, grown up slightly?
The cherry blossoms rained in from our classroom's windows,
softly landed in our palms,
and knocked open our hearts.
Having made a bouquet from all the petals we collected,
let's release it into the sky.
Do not forget,
although we are each just a small flower petal right now,
we are not alone.
The love letters we found in our shoe rack,
the grumblings of our discontent in the hallway,
the future we drew hand-to-hand on the roof top,
all of them are our testimonies.
Although it's not written in our diplomas,
we have learned to trust and love people.
Crying,
laughing,
happiness,
anger,
just like us, the blue sky is also clearing up.
A rainbow of cherry blossoms stretched into our classroom from the windows,
as a piece of our dream
stirred up the feelings in our chest.
Believing that we separate now in order to reunite later,
let's all wave goodbyes at each other.
Do not forget,
once we've each grown out an extravagant flower,
let's meet again here.
With thousands of schools out there,
it was a miracle that we ended up in this school.
No matter how many years you age,
please always keep that gentle smile.
