Streamyx SUCKS
March 2, 2006
As the title obviously states, streamyx SUCKS. I’ve had problems connecting to the Internet this past week. BLEH!! I need my internet *drool* Thank goodness I still have my Jaring diaulup account but it’s still not FAST like DSL.
Anyway, I called up the customer care and as usual they ask the same questions. “Did you do any changes to the computer in the last 24 hours?”, “Did you reset the modem?”, “Did you unplug and replug the phone line?”, “Did you make sure the phone line is directly connected to the socket?” BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH. Then, they make a report for you and “will try to resolve this issue as soon as possible. Please allow 24-48 hours for us to rectify this problem”. Let’s just say, it took them longer than that. 😛
I don’t know about anyone else but I feel like something is missing when I can’t go online. I’m like addicted to it or something. HAHAHA And NO, I’m not a geek. Rob is geek enough for the both of us. (Heeeeeh =D HI HONEY…umm sorry heh)
On a different note, I’ve been attending class for my Master’s degree every week. I must say it very challenging as I have to think beyond what I read, compared to what I was used to during my degree time. Now we’re expected to bring questions to the table and discuss it EVERY WEEK based on our weekly readingS. Yes, I emphasize on the “S” as we have a LOT to read. We have at least 3 readings a week and the readings aren’t your normal one-page articles. They are more like 20-27 pages of mind-numbing-brain-twitching-hair-pulling dissertations. Okay, I’m exaggerating. So an average of 25 pages per article, at least 3 articles a week, most of the time MORE. Do the math.
BUT a dissertation is what I must write in order to get my Masters. If memory serves me correctly, I have to write out 60,000 words of a “comprehensive understanding of the subject studied”. That’s about 200-250 pages long. Is that even possible? I’ve had a hard enough time getting my degree thesis done and that was only 40 pages long!!! OH THE HUMANITY!
Hmmmm I’m tempted to share what I’ve discussed in class here just to bore YOU. *laughs maniacally* Nahhhhhhhhhh, maybe some other day when I’m feeling motivated to.
I think I’ve done enough rambling for now. The caffeine is running out. Brain Must Rest.
