YOUR PARTICIPATION

This website, which is an opinion based website is fueled in part by your active participation either by submission of your reviews/stuff or your comments in any post, reviews, section, etc where you can find the POST A COMMENT feature. I welcome your comments and feedback, positive or negative, right or wrong, long or short.

YOUR Q's FOR MY A's

There is a FAQ [MAIN] database in this website where you will find info on how to link to this website, answers to some tech problems found in pages within this website as well as a great feature where you can post questions in relevant categories & I'll answer them. Try it out!


SELECTED POSTS

This page, NEWS & UPDATES which is actually the index page of this website has grown into a huge database of my almost daily ramblings of all stuff I hold dear to my heart, including gossips of the most sordid kind. For your convenience, I have posted a list of posts which I thought is pretty informative in my own way that you might find interesting. The list itself may be long but those selected few are the ones I thought drives home the point I wanted to make. Do check them out in MY POINT IS [Comments & Opinions].


SERIES' SUMMARIES

Sometime in 2004 I began reviewing selected series in an episode by episode way, where I called these reviews EPISODIC THOUGHTS. These thoughts are mostly summaries of each and every episode with my opinion of that episode included in it as well. I may not provide the most in depth summaries but I am very proud of the fact that I could keep the writing on such a long winded basis each and every night for the entirety of the series. I don't do this for each and every series though because it kills a lot of brain cells, mine as well as fellow netizens who often joined in the discussion by posting informative stuff. These thoughts are still open for feedback and discussion. Do check them all out in REVIEWS where it is indicated with an  [E] next to my name.


OFFBEAT STUFF

There is this one section in here that features offbeat stuff that are not entertainment based. The section is known as FUNN STUFF [COMMENTS & OPINIONS].

 
PERSONAL FAVOURITES

There are 3 sections in here that contain my personal favourites of all kinds. THE DDGs [COMMENTS & OPINIONS] which features specially made websites by myself with info & all related stuff of my favourite stars or stars I like to talk about, MEDIA & MUSIC FILES [DOWNLOADS] which has my favourite VODs and music files, most of them are taken from Chinese & Korean dramas & movies and some of which I am hosting for my net friends and THE STORYTELLERS [WEBSITES], where you'll find stories written by amateur writers like you and I.

Do check them all out!

Guess what?? & all about Internet addiction 
Permanent link Post a Comment

I am in total disbelief. I am connecting using STREAMYX!! It is on! And I hope for good!!

Sigh... I just found out the bad news. Jaring's dialup service has increased charges and my god, it is expensive. RM5 per month for 600min of usage which is equivalent to 10 hours and RM60-00 per year! And any additional cost will be 1 cent per min. But still too expensive. My sister will jump if she hears this since her last top up was 1 year ago which shows how "frequent" she use the Jaring acct. This is very sudden, very drastic.

10 hours? Like how much I use for ONE day! Anyway just now I used Jaring dialup and I realised my god, that was really slow. So slow! Slow slow slow! Streamyx ain't that fast!

Anyway checked the Broadband service for Jaring. Alas, wired or wireless, my area is not covered. This is like @$#%&* man! Why? I am stuck with Streamyx. Now I am paranoid about off-ing my modem. Like what if I can't get online tomorrow? But this prove one thing. My modem is ok, the problem was them. And they never even put an announcement to say outage at cheras area. And I just typed one nasty letter to them like 10 min ago before I tried my Streamyx line.

I now know what it is like to live in fear, perpetual unending fear that even when good times come I still fear the fear. I know my fear is petty but if you have dealt with their tech personnels believe me you will know how I feel. Funny thing is they aren't stupid or rude, just clueless. Ok maybe I am petty, maybe I am the one clueless and maybe I am addicted to Internet. In fact I think I am addicted to the Internet. What is addiction? When something is a must rather than a maybe. Let me see...

1. I must surf every night and every day even when I have nothing to surf

2. I always check my mailbox like every 10 min even when I know the last time I checked there's no mail, but just in case

3. I get freaky when thunderstorms are here because that means I can't surf!!

4. Streamyx downtime - I got worse. I freak out like I did a few hours before, I can't enjoy my holidays and my stomach has this sick feeling like I wanna puke

5. Even when I know it is pure torture, I still call the tech support and having to listen to that sleep inducing music for one hour before my call is answered just so that I get my complaints across and wishing my line restored

6. I always surf those few places, one night of no surfing I just can't sleep!

I AM ADDICTED!! HELPPPPP!!! Maybe the cure is buying a laptop.

What do you think?

Sighhhhhh...anyway Monday is coming soon and back to work I have to be. Let me just scream a bit ok...

ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!! WORKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK!!!! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thank you.

Streamyx is currently throttling p2p connection by 90%. Maybe that's why so many slow, unstable connection.

I'm really frustrated today. I was downloading some big file. Took me nearly 2 hours. But, when I'm up to 15mins more, the connection go down. So frust. When I try to redownload the file. The speed has gone down to 5kb/sec. Estimated download time is 17 hours. They must have start the throttle again.
