Chronicles of the world from my perspective.

Update on life

Tuesday, December 20, 2005


(Post date edited to reflect actual date of events)

yesterday I went to Plaza Singapura with my parents at around 10+ in the morning to sign up for MaxOnline 6500.

took the MRT to Dhoby Ghaut and alighted only to discover I have no clue how to reach Plaza Singapura. luckily the station staff told us to exit through Exit D.

finally located the StarHub shop at L1 and is served shortly. the person explained everything I already searched online and knew again. except I have to pay the first month subscription immediately.

so I had to pay $202.55 upfront since I have to buy modem and also activate the service. wtf.

went home and set up the modem. keep having problems until I realised I set my settings wrongly.

so now I am on MaxOnline 2000 (need wait a few days to become 6500) typing this.

today, I went to my aunt's workplace to fax the required documents to get the free laptop over. stayed there a while for a chat before leaving for my grandma house at Bukit Panjang.

I took MRT from Clementi to Jurong East and to Choa Chua Kang and took LRT to Bukit Panjang and walked over. cost me quite some money I guess.

my grandma told me interesting events from some time ago and about my parents. it is truely a "grandmother story" (extremely long winded) but at least I knew about quite a lot of stuff from her.

and I had to wait till night (from 2+) for dinner before going home. slept nearly 2 hours while my cousin played maplestory.

nothing else too eventful except I came home at about 8.45pm.
