I am going to a remote area soon ... so for the last few days, I was not very happy, I dread going to this remote place, even when it is going to be just three days! Three days is like three weeks to me. Why?
Firstly, of course, I will miss my kids....
Secondly, this is not a tour or somewhere I enjoy going...
Thirdly and the most saddest part is, there is no "oxygen" in that place, (Elin, u r right, no oxgen, how to survive? :(
But this afternoon, she found a solution for me.... (thank u, madam)
Today is the last day of the maxis promotion whereby they give the modem free of charge. And the most wonderful thing is, you can return the modem to them within 7 days IF you do not like it. How about that?
I quickly grabbed it this afternoon, registered myself and taaa...daaaa... I took the modem home!
With this modem, I can "breathe" properly when I go to that remote area... I can surf and surf (i hope i can, please, please!) But I am still waiting for the phone call from the maxis man to tell me that it is being activated. Till now, no sound yet.... hopefully he willl call by tomorrow otherwise I will be anxiously biting my finger nails....... serious!
thanks for sharing your Oxygen wor. Next time i will try out too :p
ReplyDelete48rm per month... sounds attractive.. right.
ReplyDeletewhy you go to remote area? Team building? Training? Hope you enjoy it and hope the "oxygen" can save your boring life there. LOL!
ReplyDeleteHave a good weekend!!
yeay! claire is mobile now :D in the jungle oso can surf with tarzan :P
ReplyDeleteSo good, free of charge >.<
ReplyDeleteannie: hoping it can be done tomorrow.. hope it works fine there..
ReplyDeletemerryn: ooohhhheeee...ohhhh.. tarzan is coming to rescue me! yeh!!!
kelvin: yes..after 7 days, they start charging..
remote area??? 0.o In KL also i cannot use sometimes... wat say remote?
ReplyDeletewow u are really addicted to blogging!!! :)
ReplyDeleteModem is portable which is very cool. But the speed is way too slow at times.
ReplyDeleteJust plug it into the USB drive and try to connect it, Claire. Usually it's activated within 3 hours, you dun need to wait for the phonecall to know whether it is activated or not.
ReplyDeleteI also use Celcom wireless broadband when I'm on the go. Though the speed is not up to par with streamyx, I guess it is still satisfactory as still can do minor sufing. LOL.. dun expect to stream movies or watch youtube, though, cuz the thing have bandwidth limit. One your limit is finished, your speed will be capped til it's very slow.:P
Awesomely cool~!! Sadly today's the last day of promotion, I won't get one if I had to pay for it!:(
ReplyDeleteIf we dun get any updates from you , then we'll know it's MODEM FAILED! wakakakakaka
ReplyDelete+Ant+
Hahaha! I know exactly how you feel without an internet connection. If you're so used to have it at the tip of your fingers, it can be terribly crippling when we're left without it. Which is why I have my BlackBerry with me, everywhere I go. I have unlimited internet use on my contract which gives me the chance to surf wherever, and I mean, WHEREVER I go. In this day and age, no internet IS like no O2!!
ReplyDeleteyay! got broadband! :D (LOL, Y THE HECK AM SO HAPPY?)
ReplyDeleteam using digi one. last time when dad n i went register for it, d digi guy oso said within 24 hours but then surprisingly after 2 hours, i can actually using it! :D well, d digi guy told me that if surf youtube will be slow, but then i didnt feel that way, sometime it load quicker than when i use streamyx. :p
after i got broadband,my dad actually bought me netbook so dat easier for me to bring anywhr, i can just put inside my handbag. haha. but then again, am not dat too addicted with internet. lol. but yes it convenient! mine last time mi registered when still college time so got free modem. haha
ReplyDeletehahahhaha... I totally laugh alone reading this... Oxygen... hehehhe
ReplyDeletebut agree 100%... what can I say...same here... LOL
hahahahahha eh u r hooked lar on the internet....save ur souls!!!!!!! hahah enjoy ursself yaa
ReplyDeleteI guess even in remote area over there...there is coverage. Over here, last time when I just crossed the river, the yellow man tenggelam already!!!Many towns here - no maxis, no digi...
ReplyDeletemedie: hey, so bad as that? then i must try.. if no good, i return..
ReplyDeletekristie: long time addicted. hahhaa..
waikeong: i must try and see.. if download movies, think will be slow..
cleff: like that ah.. then i must try it later.. thanks for the info...
alice: yeah, last day already.. but maybe next time got better promotion.. hahaha..
I was thinking of getting one in near future
ReplyDeleteGuess the saying goes "no fish prawn also can" is true! Even the speed is slower at the least you get your O2 going. haha. tQ.

sjb: thank u.. i try to have fun!
irene: now im nervous!
i have been using this oxygen for almost 2 years. when i shifted to my new home, it was killing me...it makes me feel like riding the roller coaster. up and down. UP means can be very fast at times, DOWN means you cant even login to the Net at all. somehow it's far better than P1...
ReplyDeletei feel want to get one of it too.
ReplyDeleteif this little things i can use it around the world then i will thumb up! but it is only limited at malaysia... :( not good
Wow... luckily got "portable oxygen" for u to bring. If not, cannot imagine how u'd survive that 3 days. hehehe
