 +I thought I understood SHO,and just like chavaz said <math>E_{n} = (n + \frac{1}{2})\hbar\omega</math>, but now I am confused,  how do you make the jump from SHO to fermions?

 +You are thinking of spin 1/2 for fermions, which has nothing to do with the energy value increments for the SHO; any particle can be in such a potential.
