it's time to revive my blog which has been dead for a long long time! last post dated feb 28, that's like half a year minus one day! (actually i wanted to post when i got back but somehow whenever i clicked the 'compose' tab it wouldnt load so i couldnt make new posts). and also, my internet is finally back after close to 2 weeks! to cut a long story short, we're all immensely annoyed with a certain company (***g***) because: 1. they sent a technician down a few days after we reported, and after checking, he said it was an external problem and the ANO (some external people in case of the underground cables) would have to arrange with us, and so we waited 2. and we waited until we couldnt take it and called ***g*** instead 3. customer service was bad (no surprise here), apparently they didnt have a clear, concrete record of what was wrong/report from the technician so they kept asking us over and over. mom and i called consecutively for 3 days before dad had to call too 4. arranged to send senior technician down after 1.5 weeks to 'diagnose the problem' 5. on the day itself he was too busy and ended up postponing 2 days later (i mean okay he fixed it in the end but on hindsight, if he didnt, it would only have prolonged the problem) i dont think im an unreasonable paying customer, but dont you agree 2 weeks to fix an internet related problem was just too long? and guess what the problem was? our router was connected in such a way that two routers were linked to one line. and if (quoting the technician) one spoils, the other will be affected too. so like, we know that our neighbour's line spoilt because she got the technicians to come down on the day itself. so if they knew that ours would be spoilt too since their stupid setup made it such, why didnt they just service ours at the same time. AND why did they even have this stupid system in the first place? lack of resources? i have no idea and i dont wish to know. at least now we have our own line. on another note, summer is over, forever! maybe i shld have taken a trip somewhere after korea but resources wise (time too) would have been a problem. already spent too much in korea :| five mods this sem, all of which im enjoying pretty much. it's a good balance where not all the modules are hardcore though of course it's hard to say now since it's only week 2. projects are all gonna come in soon. doing my ethics readings that day made me think about the question most philosiphers ponder over 'is something right or wrong because God commands it?' of course we had a lively debate over this in class. amazing how much thought goes into what people write in their papers.
