I wanted to apply for the Internet for my new home in Spore but then as usual being my lazy procrastinating self i delayed going to Starhub. In all honesty, i couldnt be bothered to do the "Spore thing" by lining up at the long long queues in front of Starhub just to subscribe to the internet.
Then one night, i think it was last week when i was again right in front of the tv when my phone rang. Initially when my phone rang my first thoughts were...."Nooooooooooooooo"..... thats coz i was watching American Idol and it was Melinda Dolittle my favourite for the season and i really wanted to hear her sing. Anyway, reluctantly i answered and lo and behold it was this Marketing Sales rep on behalf of Starhub asking me if i wanted to subscribe to the Internet. And the best part!!! NO QUEUES....NO DOCUMENTS.... and FREEEEEE MODEM and FREE INSTALLATION! What could be better than that. Initially she offered me a FREE 29 inch LCD Samsung tv, it was an offer too good to turn down but then the clincher was that i had to sign a 2 year contract so that lovely thought went down the drain. But hey i aint complaining, Al's got the Internet at home now...whooopppeedddooooooo.....
So last week the Starhub Cable Guy came over and installed the modem and set up the internet connection for me. And this week, our Mr. Fix-It; Steven bought me and Esther (of course we have to pay him back) a wireless router. What would we ever do without him. The router only cost us SGD$79. And now i can be connected anywhere and everywhere i go..err within the apartment of course...and yeap even the TOILET!!! As gross as it may sound but imagine the possibility.... while i'm takin a poop...i'll be typing away, communicating to some friend on MSN...ha ha ha... Err but of course thats just the wonders and possibilities of having wifi at home. Of course i wont bring my laptop into my toilet while i'm taking a poop...hehe...thats just plain unhygenic and disgusting.
So yeah baybeee....i'm a total internet geek now... plus now i'm kinda hooked on the whole blogging thing. Sigh! I'm such a sucker...hehe

Hey,
Looks like you're using a blogger account instead of a google account to log on. I am not sure if the old account allows u to link blogs.
If you do, you should go to dashboard... select layout... then add links (the option should be on the right).
Drop me a mail if you need more information.
