A Better Title

Oh yes, pardon my manners…

I’d like to thank The Gal and The Gal’s parents to the feast that I was invited to yesterday. It was a really enjoyable meal! Love ya, Gal…
Anyway… As I’m clearing my 300-odd emails backdating from October, I found this article saying that Wikipedia is just as accurate as Britannica, one of the mostly-used source of reference out there.

I myself use Wikipedia a lot to help in my studies, especially in university. However, some of my friends have pointed out that Wikipedia, being editted by many users, may not be accurate. While I agree that the credibility of some authors can be doubted, the degree of peer review in Wikipedia makes sure that inaccurate entries, especially on popular topics, are weeded out quickly.

That said, the possibility of a Wikipedia article being inaccurate makes it not a suitable source for professional work such as journals, or for studies on obscure topics. But for general knowledge, and as a reference for popular topics such as Mathematics, Wikipedia is good enough to supplement the material given in the university.

So what do all these have to do with the title of the entry today? Well, The Gal’s nickname right now reads:

nicole (*) = hocus pocus..the keyword is focus… once u focus, everything seems easier though they are not =)

I really think I need to focus a lot if I want to succeed in my studies. I’ve known myself to be distracted very easily by a lot of things, especially when I’m in front of my PC.

That has to change, if I don’t want to suffer in the end.

Anyway… I’d better stop here otherwise The Gal wouldn’t be able to sleep because she’s waiting for me to publish this entry.

Tata!

The Guy,
