Its Alive!!

And I mean my internet connection in Sunway. Since I was having trouble with my land line I cant really apply for streamyx.

Then came this guy called Mahsa Teh. He set up a small booth outside the place where I'm staying and while I was walking back from my weekly futsal session, half dead, dragging my sorry ass all the way from Sports Planet Subang Grand, Mahsa called me like how those pedofiles would call small children to trick them into doing something bad, "Boy...you student? Want to apply for Internet?". Although initially I was quite reluctant to answer his questions, my attention was caught when he said, "no need fixed phone line one".

He then dropped by my place to give me a demo on the connection. My housemate and I were hooked. Although it was priced at RM138 per month, he gave us the assurance that you get what you pay for. And that's 1.5Mb per second. And this to prove it to you.
1522 kbps download speed and 239 kbps upload speed

The only thing was that we have to pay 3 months in advance but I get 1 month free. So all in all I'm a happy man. So more blog updates as well.

On a shorter note, I was heartbroken with the loss of my secondary school friend. Although I was not so close to him, we studied in the same primary and secondary school and stayed somewhat close to each other. The news saddened me even more as I was told that the nature his death was not natural. It brought tears to my eyes. May you rest in peace.

Reporting In

Basically nothing much changed since the previous post of mine. Still inhaling all the dust thanks to my home renovation. Finding it hard to even sleep as the construction workers start to drill holes in my house at 8am and end at 6pm, depriving me of my precious sleep. The renovation work is expected to be done by the end of this month. But I won't be around to watch the work progression in my house as I'll be starting my summer course next week and off I'll go back to the boring Sunway life and continuing my FYP from where TPK and I left off...have we started yet?

As for the past 2 weeks or so, I've been spending most of my time in my room watching all the movies in hard disk(the home desktop computer has been moved to my room :-) and making space for more movies that I'm downloading.

Although its kinda hard to believe, I'm currently enjoying doing cardio. I jog around my housing area and day by day I increase the distance I run. Up to date, I think I run bout 6km in less than 30 minutes. I'm not sure if the running helped me reduce the love handle around my waist, but it certainly helped me sleep soundly even with the drilling and banging noise from the renovation. Not sure if I'll be able to continue this cardio excercise when I'm in Sunway as I tend to get lazy when I'm there. Hopefully that will not be the case..

I think that's all I have got. Before I leave, I came across this book on the Internet and it kinda caught my attention in terms of the title.

Why only 5 habits? Because 7 is too many. HAHAHA
