I became a passive smoker in the process of getting WIFI service
I wrote this missive first, before I could come up with a title. It's been countless weeks with no internet connection at home. I had to spend time and money at a nearby coffee shop (Kopitiam) to get online - to check my mails, to chat, create this blog, etc etc etc. Its ok to get out of the house for a while after dinner and sometimes on weekends, in mid-mornings, in order to go online. Its the crowd that's challenging. As the nite gets older, the crowd gets younger and louder. Must be the coffee. But it's a necessary evil for an Internet junky like me. Its become a routine, to go online. On school days, I stay back much longer to check my personal emails and to chat with friends. (I do use work time to check my emails though - naughty naughty!). But when Maxis proofed to be a bad provider, my family decided to change to TM and it just takes such a long time for my girls to get this done and meantime I had to find alternatives. So after dinner, you will find me at the kopitiam hacking away on the laptop with a cup of tea. It costs me RM2.95 every time I sit down to go online, which is good bargain for I do stay for at least 2 hours, on work days and longer on weekends. Its a win-win situation between us (maybe not).
