HTML Color Codes

I love to play around with colors when designing my blog.  That is why  I always change my blog background and template.  There are so many html color codes that cannot be remembered. This is because it representing the combination of red, green and blue with prefix #. I only can remember a few major color codes defined by its name such as white, blue, yellow, red, black, grey, silver and others.

To make your blog look attractive, try to customize the color codes according to the chosen theme and see the outcome. Be careful in changing the blog coding. It is really fun when you try a few colors. This is also good for blog that do not want major changes on the template, just change to another color. Your visitors may not be bored while reading your blog posts and they will be able to come back later to your blog. To be noted, color is important for the first sight. Bring the good mood and choose the suitable colors to your blog.

To get the HTML Color Codes chart, I usually refer to this URL link http://www.computerhope.com/htmcolor.htm. For me, it is a complete color codes chart, and help me a lot to change colors in my blog. There are also tips in changing the color. Try to explore and you will be impressed.

Study Tips On Learning Programming Language

A few Open University Malaysia (OUM) students asked me, how I manage to get A for all my programming subjects? Indeed a very tough and complex question. Hmm... a bit difficult to answer but I will answer it based on my experience during my study at OUM.

What I did previously.... After getting the OUM module/book during the registration day, on the night itself, I tried to look through all the topics. Just a quick glance to know what it is all about. I jotted down a few note and classify the topics by important part, difficult part and  easier part. Normally, I will focus the easier part followed by the difficult part and lastly the important part.

I usually scheduled my study for 2 months. You must remember that time is so short, you must plan and schedule your programming study activity perfectly so that you may have time to study other subjects and at the same time, commits with family and work matters. A simple timetable should be enough in order to remind you.

Firstly, install the programming software in your computer and try to be familiar with the interface and function.

Secondly, do not wait until the class starts, then you will study. NO! You must start at home and study first. The study activities are :

Thirdly, write a coding is not easy. You must know the flow of the data to be processed and become the output. For beginner, may try to do the flowchart or pseudocode to get a better algorithm.

input >> processing >> output

Try to relate this theory to any problem solving you have in order to write the coding. If you get stuck and need help, do ask your lecturer or your friends. Let them help you to solve the error. Do not simply give up.

Fourthly, after you knew the coding then you must keep practicing and do exercises. These may help you to get used with the codes and know the output result.

Lastly, for exam preparation... try to write back the successful coding you have tested in the computer on to a piece of paper. During exam, you have to answer by writing the codes not typing on the keyboard. You may not notice the error because there is no compiler. So, be careful of any simple mistake by rechecking back thoroughly... one by one.

To OUM students, may these tips answer your question. I am not that perfect, but I always give my biggest effort to achieve what I target. Be positive and you also can do it!

Hopefully these study tips will help other computer and IT students to struggle and achieve A in any programming language. Good luck and all the best!

p/s: trying my best to answer it.... fiuhhh..

Setelah memikir dan mengambilkira semua pendapat dan cadangan oleh rakan-rakan blogger dan silent reader, Mia telah buat keputusan untuk beli Samsung Galaxy S II. Malam kelmarin, Mia dan Suami Mia telah pergi ke Kedai Maxis di Tesco Bukit Indah. Bila dah sampai kedai, didapati model  Samsung Galaxy  S II sudah tidak ada stok dan yang ada hanyalah model  Samsung Galaxy S Advance dan  Samsung Galaxy Note.

Lama juga hendak buat keputusan. Sebelum itu, Mia ada sms pada Broframestone dan Mak Dara yang sememangnya pengguna tegar Instagram ni. Nasib baik mereka balas sms. Kiranya macam pakar rujuk Mia lah ni.

Antara keperluan dan kehendak, kenalah pilih keperluan. Kalau pilih kehendak tentu Mia nak pakai Samsung Galaxy Note. Kalau ikut keperluan Mia, Samsung Galaxy S Advance sudah mencukupi bagi Mia. Yang penting sekali, apa yang Mia beli berbaloi dengan keperluan Mia.

Keperluan Mia :

1. Kos dalam bajet, kalau murah sedikit duit tu boleh pergi kepada komitmen lain
2. Boleh FB, Twitter, Blog, Instagram, Emel dan Skype
3. Boleh call, sms, mms dan video call
4. Boleh Wi-Fi dan Bluetooth

Sempat jugalah belajar guna instagram semasa di kedai maxis...

Ribuan terima kasih kepada mereka yang sudi tinggalkan komen di dalam entri Nak Pilih Android Yang Mana Satu Ni?

Layout Blog telah ditukar daripada 3 column menjadi 2 column. Banyak widget yang telah Mia keluarkan. Fiuhhh... Pening juga nak pilih yang mana satu. Bayangkan dah lama betul Mia gunakan 3 column, sampai tak perasan banyak betul widget yang Mia letak.

Memandangkan sekarang ini sedang dalam proses meringankan blog, jadi Mia tukar terus kepada 2 column. Lagi simple, kemas dan teratur. Nak loading pun mungkin cepat sedikit berbanding dengan 3 column. Bila dah jadi 2 column, sebelah kiri Mia gunakan untuk entri blog dan sebelah kanan untuk widget dan iklan.

Harap anda semua suka dengan perubahan ini.

p/s: lepas ni baru fokus nak buat banner gift untuk blogger-bloger yang bertuah di dalam entri INI.

MAKLADY's 1st GIVE AWAY ~ CONTEST

"Award Terjah MakLady of the Month"

Terima kasih diucapkan kepada MakLady yang sudi jemput Mia untuk join MAKLADY's 1st GIVE AWAY ~ CONTEST "Award Terjah MakLady of the Month".... Mia dengan besar hatinya pun nak join juga walaupun tiada sesiapa pun yang tag Mia. Sempat lagi ni. Tarikh tutupnya ialah pada 30 Jun 2012.

Mula-mula kena follow blog MakLady dulu...

2 blog yang selalu Mia terjah...

Kak Pah

Mak Dara

Mereka berdua memang gorgeous dan banyak bantu Mia berkempen untuk blog ini. Kalau takde mereka, alamat tak meroyan dan kecoh geng kempen Mia. Sayang sangat pada mereka berdua ni... Muahsssss....


Seterusnya Mia nak tag....  Cik Beruang, Huda dan Ummiarissa.


Eh! Jangan malu-malu dan segan-segan. Kepada sesiapa yang berminat marilah sama-sama join. Hadiah-hadiahnya pun menarik ni.... Support rakan blogger kita ni... Ayuhhhhh!

Pening juga Mia nak pilih. Tak tahulah. HTC paling mahal dan nampak bagus dari segi processor, cuma tak ramai orang yang guna. Samsung Galaxy Note pula ramai yang guna, tapi macam besar sedikit. IPhone 4S (bukan android), function Instagram susah sedikit nak guna katanya. Banyak faktor diambilkira, dari segi processor 4 atau Dual Core CPU, storage 16 GB atau 32 GB, camera pixel 5 atau 8 megapixel.... dan banyak lagi. Sampai Mia pun keliru.

Hajatnya memang nak beli satu, tapi belum buat keputusan sehingga kini, sebab tak nak tersalah pilih.

p/s: sesiapa yang dah guna silalah bagi cadangan.... terima kasih ya....

Memang berikan Sofea ubat, tetapi bila dah masuk, terus muntah. Macam tak boleh masuk pula. Cuma masukkan ubat dicloren sodium sahaja. Itu pun sekali.

Awal pagi hari ini, badan Sofea kembali panas. Makan ubat dan minum susu pun tak mahu. Jawabnya kena mandi untuk sejukkan badan. Mia terpaksa ambil cuti cemas hari ini. Mia dan Suami Mia terus buat keputusan untuk gunakan alternatif kedua iaitu ubat homeopati. Maka, bila dah siang dalam pukul 11.00 pagi ke Klinik Pakar Homeopati Ariffin di Pekan Francais Pulai. Ada 2 botol ubat. Mula-mula kena habiskan botol No. 1 yang perlu diberi setiap satu jam. Dah habis botol No. 1, baru guna botol No. 2 setiap 3 jam. Alhamdulillah, serasi betul dengan ubat homeopati ini dan Sofea sudah semakin sembuh dari demam. Kisah klinik ini, ada dalam entri yang lepas. Klik SINI.

Susah hati bila Sofea demam. Sebab malam memang Mia dan Suami tak boleh tidur nak kena jaga, takut panas sangat badan dia. Nenek dan atuknya (mak dan ayah Mia) dari kampung pun datang pagi tadi, risau betul dengan keadaan Sofea.

p/s: sekarang bila dah besar, Sofea dah tak nak pakai kool fever lagi...

Kali ini Mia ada tambah simbol  ❤ bagi membezakan antara satu dengan yang lain. Ada 11 semuanya setakat ini.

Semoga nampak lebih ceria blog ini hendaknya dengan menu yang telah diubahsuai sedikit dengan lokasi yang berbeza.

Oh no! My blog is a bit fat maybe chubby I guess. The result are as follows :

Size : 145.05 KB

Load Time : 0.54

Average Speed per KB : 0 seconds

A good blog should be less than 100 KB. Maybe I should get rid of unnecessary widgets on my blog and only use simple design with no background. Ohh my.. This is what I hate for. I really love to change background periodically since 2010. Still have no decision yet. As long as my blog speed does not exceed 150 KB, I think it can be accepted. 

p/s: please get rid of fat.... 

Semua blogger tentunya akan tiba di suatu masa, keadaan di mana tiba-tiba tidak ada idea untuk update blog. Bukan senang nak update setiap hari. Bila bangun pagi sahaja, terus terfikir nak update apa ya hari ini? Bila mood malas menjelma, memang lambatlah nak dapat idea atau ilham. Harus atasinya dengan segera supaya blog tidak bersarang.

Apa yang Mia buat ialah bila Mia dah kering idea, Mia akan tengok apa yang ada di sekeliling Mia. Selepas itu, ambil gambar beberapa kali dengan sudut yang berlainan dan kemudian masukkan ke dalam blog. Kemudian, karang apa-apa yang dirasakan perlu. Mungkin kenangan, kesukaan, kebencian, pendapat, luahan hati, tips dan lain-lain tentang gambar yang kita ambil itu. Tak pun review blog orang lain, review blog follower ke... buat segmen ke.... Apa-apa sahajalah.  Biarlah apa orang nak kata, tapi yang penting blog mesti update. Kadang-kadang ada juga entri merapu dan meroyan...

Kekerapan? Paling tidak pun 1 kali sehari, Mia akan update blog demi menjaga hati pengunjung dan mengekalkan trafik ke blog ini. Sibuk macam mana pun, Mia tetap akan update blog. Kalau ada kursus, bengkel atau outstation, selalunya Mia akan sediakan entri-entri secara autopost terlebih dahulu. Jadinya, blog akan sentiasa update walaupun Mia sibuk dan tiada masa nak mengadap internet.

p/s: jadi blogger ni kena aktif dan kreatif...

Kuih Raya - Promosi Sudah Bermula

Wahhh... meriahnya. Senang sahaja nak promosi kuih raya sekarang ni. Boleh promosi secara online. Hanya perlu tempek gambar kuih raya di facebook dan tag rakan-rakan. Tak pun tempek gambar kat blog, twitter ataupun instagram. Nanti ramailah yang akan komen dan kalau ada yang berminat terus buat tempahan. Yang penting kena pandai gayakan gambar kuih raya tu, biar nampak cantik dan menggoda mata yang melihat.

Kalau dulu, secara offline dengan ke hulu ke hilir sambil bawa sample kuih raya. Berpeluh-peluh. Boleh juga cuba rasa kuih raya percuma... sedap ke tidak... Promosi selalunya bermula dengan adik-beradik, saudara mara, lepas tu rakan-rakan baik, rakan pejabat dan jiran-jiran. Kalau nak maju, hantar ke kedai-kedai.

Tahun ini sama macam tahun-tahun lepas Mia akan beli kuih raya dan kerepek. Nak buat sendiri memanglah tak pandai sangat. Peruntukan untuk beli kuih raya tetap ada. Tapi ada juga kuih raya yang belum sampai raya dah habis dulu dimakan. Konon.. nak makan sedikit, bila tengok tv.. tak perasan terus terhabis satu balang. Tahun ni, nak cuba disiplinkan diri, sembunyikan kuih raya kat dalam kitchen kabinet yang atas. Jadi susah nak ambil nanti... Harap-harap berjaya....

Jom belek-belek. Nak tempah yang mana ya....

Aduhhh... dah rambang mata ni.. tak tahu nak pilih yang mana.... Semuanya nampak sedap-sedap belaka...

p/s: sekejapnya masa berlalu, dah nak puasa tak lama lagi....

Tempe goreng kunyit memang kegemaran Mia dan Suami Mia. Tempe juga boleh jadi lauk sampingan atau pun dimakan begitu sahaja dengan cicah sambal kicap. 

Sofea pula nampak macam kurang berminat dengan tempe. Mungkin kecil lagi. Kalau makan... sedikit sahaja. Lepas tu dah tak nak. Nanti dah besar tentulah suka makan tempe ini. Nak sedapkan hati.

Mia memang dibesarkan dengan makan tempe selain dari lauk sayur. Dari kecil sampailah sekolah menengah. Tempe goreng boleh dipelbagaikan dengan macam-macam cara. Ada yang suka letak ketumbar. Ada juga yang suka letak rempah kari. Ikut suka. Janji boleh masuk dalam mulut dan rasa kesedapannya.

Inilah cara Mia masak. Mia akan potong belah dua dan lumurkan dengan serbuk kunyit dan garam. Lepas itu terus goreng. Sudi-sudikanlah diri untuk berkongsi kalau ada resepi lain yang tersendiri untuk goreng tempe ini. Mana tahu Mia pun boleh upgrade cara Mia memasak ni...

Menu tengahari Mia.... sambil makan sambil berborak sampai tidak sedar boleh habis semuanya masuk ke dalam perut. Lepas itu, untuk sesi petang masing-masing mula mengantuk. Di dalam hati cuma ingat, "Bilalah nak habis ni..". Dugaan betul...

Ole-ole yang Mia bawa pulang.... Pertama, dapat mug comel, hadiah daripada pop kuiz. Mood suka. Kedua, dapat Sijil Penyertaan daripada Unit Sains Teknologi dan ICT Negeri Johor.

p/s: makan banyak betul... sampai terlupa tengah diet ni...
