At the very beginning, Happy 9th birthday to my little girl! ヽ(・∀・ )ﾉ
I can feel you growing year by year, if that's not day by day. And you definitely grow faster than me when I was 9. So what I was doing back to the age of 9? Seems I don't have any clear memory -- it began a year after I guess. Perhaps I can still dig out my ancient age diary book, but it's way too embarrassing for me to have a read. orz

Actually, I'm tending to be more off-line recently -- which I don't mean I can live without electronic devices -- but it's all mainly about:
1. a cat -- no wonder that I'm the type who can be healed by just staring at a cat's photo.
2. an elegantly curved magical box -- still awkward but I believe it will eventually come.
Yet I don't want to bring too much here. Maybe I will sometime (much) later.

3. a shogi board -- I just began for less than even a week, but I'm already in it, deeply. It has much more fun than chess. The captured pieces can be turned into your own side, and most pieces can do a "transform" after going across the "borderline". While still not memorising all the pieces' moves, it's still quite challenging to me, and I simply keep failing, but losing is fun too (and I'm definitely not M)!
Also, I feel so good in another sense. At least in future when people ask me what's my favourite sport, I have an answer.
Meanwhile, I was wondering, what will happen if I have a computer vs. computer? That I'll have a try soon or later.

Thus, even though about 3 weeks ago I got the idea and made the overall draft arrangement, and I finished most basic outlining/colouring 2 weeks ago, all my attention has been transferred into those mentioned above. It could be strange as none of them is completely new to me, but this was just what happened.
So sorry I can't make it for your birthday! >_<
Maybe next year I'll give you a full hina-set! ^^;

Last night, I finally saw the get windows 10 app gave me some good news. My upgrade was ready! But since it was close to zero hour I did the upgrade tonight.
I initially had Win 7 home, then I hacked it to Win 7 Ultimate. When Microsoft just (?) released Win 8 I purchased it by only half of the regular price, and a year after from Win 8 to Win 8.1 with some huge improvements, and now, the free Win 10 upgrade.

Due to this or that, all of my OS fighting ended up with a fresh installation. This time, I decided to trust Microsoft and let it go. The experience was indeed good. The upgrade began like a regular system update, then from copy files, getting drivers to personal configs, I watched all the changes. The biggest thing was about the drivers, which could be observed easily through the change in screen resolution. Before I was worrying that might be another hassle in dealing with my laptop specific drivers (my previous lesson made me uploaded them into an online cloud), but it didn't happen this time. Display is good, touch pad works (even the long term problem of scrolling in Opera is fixed on Win 10!). Then the files, just like from win 8 to 8.1, not a worry at all. Nothing was lost, including my custom mouse pointer files stored under the "system32" dir. And finally, all my programs are there, my settings for each program (such as fb2k and notepad++, even the cmd colour and size) are all untouched.
The classic windows' start menu is back -- I don't really care about it though. I've said for a lot of times, that I need to thank win 8's removal of that so I get used to the mighty cmd shell. Win 10 is supposed to have an even better performance compared to Win 8.1. As I'm not good at such I'll (positively) believe what they claimed.

However, standing out from all these good things, I couldn't stop being bothered by its snow white window title bars. I don't understand why an advanced OS doesn't let you to choose whatever colour you want. It's not a small phone that to get a good colour scheme doesn't really matter. Plus I'm fairly sensitive to colours, being unable to see the colour I want on the title bar only made my eyes hurt.
At first I wanted to accept it. It's the new OS' decision. But I thought I should at least have some attempts before giving in (of course a 3rd party program isn't of my taste either). And quickly I found it's not unchangeable, thanks to this article.

Now I'm eventually satisfied. Windows 10 with colours on the window title bar!! <33
Microsoft accepted people's feedback and put a simple start menu for Win 8.1, now I wish they can listen to what people say again and let us changing the title bar colours without this hack on their Win 10.1 release.
