In a project I was requested to install Oracle SOA Suite 10g (10.1.3.1.0).
It is interesting that my colleagues simply knew I need to upgrade an existing OracleDB to higher version. But when I asked where do I find the documentation regarding the upgrade, they replied they hit an error before and they solved it but they didn't remember where's the documentation.
Anyway, the summary is, documentation does exist. You may go http://otn.oracle.com/ -> Documentation -> Oracle Application Server -> etc. Please reference the following link for the corresponding OracleDB that is required by SOA Suite 10g installation:
http://download-uk.oracle.com/docs/cd/B31019_01/install.1013/install/reqs.htm#CHDEAICG
% sqlplus sys/password as sysdba
SQL> select version from product_component_version where product like 'Oracle%9i%' or product like 'Oracle%Database%';
The existing OracleDB is 10.1.0.4. How do I upgrade it to 10.1.0.5?
Steps to find patch for upgrading OracleDB:
1. Login http://metalink.oracle.com
2. Go to [Patches & Upgrades] tab.
3. Select "Advanced Search".
4. Search with the following options:
* Product Family: RDBMS Server
* Release: Oracle 10.1.0.4, 10.1.0.5
5. Then, a list of related items are returned.
I want to upgrade OracleDB 10.1.0.4 to 10.1.0.5, which one is the right one? Siva simply suggested me to use "4505133 - Oracle Database Family: Patchset 10.1.0.5 PATCH SET FOR ORACLE DATABASE SERVER". I asked him, how do you know is this one? He replied, you click the readme file, then you'll know everything. Magic. Anyway, I trust him, so I just simply download patch 4505133.
Here you go. Upgrade patch is bundled in OUI (Oracle Universal Installer) format. So we simply shutdown all database processes and execute "./runInstaller". OracleDB will be upgraded beautifully.

YAH Batch 3 Anniversary
April 14, Saturday was a busy day. Today was the opening day of YAH Community College Batch 6 at Center for Seniors in Bishan Junction 8. Started from 8am, volunteers and facilitators had started to prepare and welcome students.
Reception
Student coming.
12 April 2006 was the day all the Batch 3 facilitators got together. So we decided to have an anniversary gathering on same day 14 April 2007. After lunch in Junction 8 food court, Bao Xuan drove May Ying and me together to East Coast Park Island Resort.

While we were waiting for the rest to arrive in the evening, we have an informative chat. I learned 2 tips to become good boyfriend/husband from Bao Xuan, haha...
Around 6:30pm, more people and food arrived. The buffet was ordered by May Ying. The presentation looked good and the food was tasty. Yue Feng had also prepared Mo Mo Cha Cha dessert.
This was a rare gathering. We had some new friends, husband and wife coming. Everybody ate ate and chat chat. Then, it was ice-breaking cum team-building game time. Soon prepared 3 games, they were (1) Guess who am I? (2) Phoenix Hall of Fame and (3) Memorized Puzzle.
Game1: Guess who am I?
Game2: Phoenix Hall of Fame
Game3: Memorized Puzzle
Aiyo... it was not easy to control the crowd. Players started to act before Soon finished explaining. They argued with the rules or they refused to accept the “prizes”. Haha... quite messy.
Refuse to accept the Prize
As we were facilitators, we had the debrief session after the activities. Somehow somebody had opinions and somehow ended up Soon went on stage to sing. Bee Yew the potential future facilitator was involved also.
After game debrief
Bee Yew and Soon sang on the stage
Finally, the event was ended. Hopefully everybody had a happy and memorable night.

2 tips to become good boyfriend/husband
Tips # 1: 了解和让着她。不是讲讲而已，是真的了解那种。
由于本人性格比较随和，多数事情不太计较。有一次出国旅行找旅店的时候，有朋友十分小心翼翼的审查睡床表面干不干净，窗口对那边，地板脏不脏，房间整体的色调好不好，之类的。我看了简直不可思议，“ 喂，我们不是买房子，只是住旅店一晚，你没有必要如此斤斤计较吧？” 言下之意，就是将就一点。
我一直都不觉得自己这样有什么问题。然而，和一个女性朋友聊天之后，我才明白自己这样是太不体谅别人的性格和习惯了。
那个女性朋友天生就是一个爱干净，爱选择美观的东西，的人。如果床不舒服，冲凉房不干净，她就是睡不着，不愿洗澡，或者干脆不住进去的那种。我心里就想，哎哟，如果我带这样的一个女朋友出门真麻烦。可是！她的先生是怎样反应的？我听了感触良深。
当她和朋友要在外面过夜，她的先生听到是什么地方的时候，他十分预知的告诉她，你在那边是睡不着的啦，还是回家休息吧。哇，太了解自己的妻子了。
而且，如果他们夫妇旅行的时候，她的老公一定花费多一点，住星级旅店。哇，太体谅自己的妻子了。
这个可以学一学。
Tips # 2: 老婆是拿来疼的，不是当家里的佣人。
有时聊天谈论到找对象的时候，有时候有人会提到说，希望自己的妻子能够做家务和照顾老人小孩。
然而我的女性朋友回到丈夫婆家吃饭的时候，她的先生反而会叫他的妹妹洗碗收拾，我的女性朋友是不用动手的。先生的家里人当然会抗议嘛。她的先生就说，老婆是拿来疼的，不是当家里的佣人。
这个例子有点极端，不过做丈夫的想法却很超越。想一想，如果一个男孩子还没有结婚，到处去跟人家说希望他的妻子能够做家务，那么肯定把女孩子吓跑了嘛。难怪有人找不到女朋友了。
这一条可以参考参考。
