Here I am, my computer is out of order. My display adapter has gone haywire. I struggle to see a nice picture on my computer. I’ve been suffering with a 16 color bit screen and a 640 X 480 pixels for months. I refuse to get it fix. I swap monitors, I reinstalled my Windows platform, still it didn’t work. It was obvious, I was not fixing the faulty hardware. My ego’s too big for me to send it to the repair shop. I stare at my Computing bachelor degree hanging on the wall. Its laughing at me as I rub my eyes with every effort I tried.<\/p>\n
I am blogging in a nearby internet cafe. The need to be online is an addiction. The need to stay connected is power. Surfing the internet at home with my 33.6 modem is a torture. In the cafe, the luxury of broadband internet <\/a>is heaven. Using a slow network and disastrous screen at home have numbed my senses. I can’t help but have green horns over my friends with Broadband ISP <\/a>. I ponder to myself do I need a ADSL Broadband <\/a>network ? I calculated the odds when I actually use the internet. Probably an hour a day if I’m lucky to clear my desk. The bulk of work I have now is three times more than my corporate job. Ironically, the job satisfaction with teaching is far, far better off than working with morons. All pun intended.<\/p>\n I thought again, even if I don’t use the broadband internet<\/a> for my surfing purposes, I could use to download my favourite tv series. Unfortunately, I found out the local ISP provider in Malaysia actually bans several network channel. Why ? Well, because the traffic is too heavy and using it would just create a bottleneck to the network connection. Malaysian don’t have much choices when it comes to network provider. Well, I shan’t complain. The grass is always greener on the other side. UK, USA, Australia, New Zealand .. my fellow lucky mates ..choices for broadband provider<\/a> is unlimited.<\/p>\n Ok, I’m running out of time. Clock strikes time to log off from cafe. Till the next time.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Here I am, my computer is out of order. My display adapter has gone haywire. I struggle to see a nice picture on my computer.
