Disconnected

FIRST of all, I would like to annouce that...FINALLY I found a roti canai stall in UTM! Hehe.
It has been weeks I have not write something here. One of the main reasons is because of the stupid internet connection.

I can only online if I:
1) use the library computers which is always full with people,
2) go to the faculty computer lab which has limited number of PCs,
3) walk all the way to CICT (Center of Information Communicaion Techonlogy) which is about 20-30 minutes away from my kolej.

4) have a notebook to access the net from the Studio. Unfortunately I don't have one.

However the connection over there is veeeerrrrry slooooooow...

Every rooms in the kolejs (dorms) has a network plug which enable us to access the internet when in the room. Unfortunately, my block and the block opposite mine haven't got this service ready yet although the plug is there already!

When I went to the kolej office to ask about it, the lady just say: "Oh, blok ini belum ada lagi. Kena tunggu lagi.."

How long more do I have to tunggu. The seniors had told me that they heard the same thing since the first time they moved here.

Apalah! Kononnya Universiti TECHNOLOGY Malaysia?!!

So here I am blogging all the way from Singapore. If there aren't any activities/classes on the weekends, why not I just come to my aunt's house here for 2 days. It only takes me less than 2 hours to get from the campus to my aunt's house.

At the same time, I can get to sleep in a comfortable air-con room, have a nice hot shower, and get to eat nice delicious pork.

Two more weeks to come and I'll be having my mid-sem break (2nd-10th Sept). Can't wait for that! Few days ago dad called and told me about this Buy-1-Free-1 promotion from Air Asia from the 13th to the 20th August.

And yesterday he called again and told me that he had booked air tickets to Phuket, since it is very cheap. Plus you'll get another night for free if you stay for 3 nights. We are going with a friend of dad and his son, who is also a student of UTM.

After reading Kenny Sia's travel log on Phuket, it is indeed a very nice place not to be missed =)

However before all the holiday and fun, I have some assignments to be handed up by the end of August.

*Sigh*

Pssst:

Is it time for me to take the first step? Or do I still have to wait awhile more?
