After I just had my first pay from Muda Papermill, the company which I was working with for my Industrial Training, I planned to bring my parents to Kim Gary at Gurney Plaza for some nice exquisite lunch. My pay was not much, but I felt like I wanted to thank my parents. I don't know why, but just felt like thanking them with my first pay. Reached there about 12.30 pm but I wasn't expecting the crowd to be hung over the place. We even have to take a number if we were to follow the original plan, but Dad was to hungry to wait. And they blame me for taking my own sweet time to dress up, therefore reaching there so late. *Ouch* Anyway, Dad's growling tummy leads us to Nando's Chicken at groundfloor. Thank God, the crowd wasn't that much and we are able to feed Dad's tummy into silence. My treat it is. I'm kind of dissappointed for not being able to treat them Kim Gary's. It has been a hot talk in most happening places about the nice food they serve. I do not know how true it is but i'm willing to find out. It's Penang, by the way, the Food-Haven! So, anybody for treats?
Mom hinted me that she wanted to buy something for me. So the next destination was to Georgetown. Mom pointed to a particular goldsmith at Campbell Street. The location of my fifth present.
Thanks Mom, Thanks Dad!
I love u guys too~!!!

StreamyX & Temper!!!
4 weeks without my stremyx and i completely forgot how to get myself online!
Seems abit dramatic? Let's just say, i just had 4 weeks without knowing that my modem was down. Waaaay down. Previously, it just gets disconneted for no reason, then i would operate my pc, and without much problem, i can get back to the net. There was once i called those StreamyX fellas and they thought me how to troubleshoot my pc by teaching me to set another manual dial-up. Done that, and the line just goes on smoothly for about 1 week, and then the disconnecting gets worst. Sometimes i can't online at all. Was fuming back then.. nearly punch my CPU.
Thinking not to bother with it much yet, it might be better when i come back from Cameron Highlands, i ignored the problem and went to have fun with my family during Raya break. The problem remains the same the week after that. Finally, called up the StreamyX fellas (yes, i know i should have done it as soon as i come back.. sigh..) and told them about my problem *again* They called my to troubleshoot using the same way. Did that but STILL no results. I complained till they ears were numb, and they just say, "Ms. Tan, calm down, we'll send u a technician if the problem still persists in another 48 working hrs." 48 WORKING HOURS!!!! I still have to wait that LOOOOOOONG. *fumes fumes*
Anyway, i bugged them again after just 36 working hrs and requested for a technician the very next day at 6pm at my house. I'm intolerable, i know.. teeheehee~!
They sent me a technician who doesn't want to work overtime and expect me to be at home before 4.30pm best. Wat ThE DumB*$$!!!! I NEED TO WORK TOO~!
So much so that i can at least pay for my petrol! Hu...huuu....huu...
I had to persuade that fella until he agrees to come at 5.30pm. It's like bargaining prices for an item, the only difference is that i'm bargaining for time. Might be because of my charms and my sweet voice over the telephone (*yeah.. yeah.. i know most of you won't agree with that statement, especially my sisters..), the person eventually agrees at 5.30pm. Fine! 5.30pm it is.
I speeded back to reach home before 5.30pm in order to get ready my pc. He came, and after minutes of checking & troubleshooting... he found that it was nothing wrong with my innocent CPU... it was the fault of my modem. My only 6-month old modem. Only 6-month old. Luckily, it was still under guarantee. Was able to change a new modem without a cost. Whoopedoo~!
So much for my flash news. Just wanted to pour the temper in this post. Till the next one!
