A certain summarised entry

God, finally got my internet back on after more than a weeks absence from society. I swear to god, the feeling of not being able to just whip out your laptop or turn on one's computer to check inspect one's mail or social network status is agonizing to say the least, even more so when one frequently takes for granted the ever-ready internet accessibility. When I'm at my uncle's, WIFI...click. When I'm at the mall, WIFI....click. When I'm all the way in Penang, hotel free WIFI...click. When I'm at the mall, Starbucks WIFI leeching...click. But a few days ago, I woke up from a nap in my room and the sudden realisation hit me. So hard that I I thought I must still be dreaming. Yes, for the first time in my life, I cannot access the internet at THAT very instant... Shocking no doubt, but what was there to be done?

But we'll just let bygones be bygones. I have a 1mbps connection speed now (which was supposed to be 4mbps, fuck you Streamyx, I hope you and TM NUT burn in the depths of buffering hell!) as opposed to my old 512kbps. So is it faster?



Dream on. Seriously, TM Nut, you suck. I mean, Kessler has the same package as me and he has speeds no less than 150kbps when torrenting. Me? I'll be lucky if it goes slightly over 50kbps. And at most times, it lingers around the 30 mark. So yeah, upgrade my ass. Giving credit where its due, my speed now touches 80kbps once in a while. But still.

I shall stop whining now.

Anyway, today was yet another typical day at the col.
For one, we almost skipped Maths to follow our Maths Specialist teacher, Mr Eric to go have some.... get ready for it..... Bak Kut Teh at Subang. Imagine this, he said that Miss Rosemarry, our Maths teacher wasn't here today and he proposed the whole class drive out in our separate cars at 10.30am to have some Bak Kut Teh (there was something about mixing Nasi lemak and Bak Kut Teh to form... some dish...Bak Kut Lemak or something like that... watever). So I said we almost went, cause we didnt in the end. On our way out of the college, we saw, much to our, as they call it, bloody-hell-potong steam-dismay, ms Rosemary walking in to college.


Self explanatory. We headed for Maths class. Mr Eric was a lonely man at a Bak Kut Teh restaurant that morning.....

I am also quite joyous today as lol and behold, I actually managed to complete a programming task for a software that displays the cost of an item, receives the tendered amount from the customer, calculates the change to the nearest 10 cents(in favour of the shop owner and then returns the change due. Oh, it also allows the use of credit card and debit card and does all the calculations accordingly.

What can I say, bangga lebih la aku ni...XD
