And Then There Was Wi-fi

I tell you the fact that I now have
wi-fi 24-7 has made me seriously addicted to Percy
I never turn him off
when I sleep, Percy sits beside me
and the message on my MSN?Gtalk tells everyone I am asleep
though some stubborn people
from Malaysia will msg me at 6am and say
"Eh, really sleeping one meh? Why so lansi one this year?"

Kanneh, cos you spent Christmas with my family without me!
Joking la.

Bleh.

Anyway, I haven't gotten offline since I got on
that means 5 days lor
you think its bad for my laptop?

So everyday I wake up, and I disturb my aunties
today I was talking to
mother, aunt 1, 2 and 3 when my JA
actually came up to me and said
"Aja, I think you have to go and do your grocery shopping
now, because we've been waiting an hour and a half
to play mahjong.."

Basically telling me to f-off

Where got like that one?
This is me okay, I'm supposed to be like...
the sunshine in their lives or something.

So then I went to play Pictionary with the 3 young adults
who were under my care today, then grocery shopping
cooked lunch then took them bowling
then went chinese grocery shopping
then came back, saw my aunts online again
and said 'hi' and you know what they said?

"You have no life ah Ja?" evidently not.

Cos I am a lamer. Deal with it.
I have everything I need right here
food and internet.

And on the internet you can find, love, entertainment
work, porn (food or otherwise),companionship, friendship

I mean like WHY would I have to go out right?
Unless I am a plant and need photosynthesis
But I am not, I am all flesh and bone,
beating heart beneath my breast baby, feel me.

So SO SO better mood right?
Sorry I was so dark but heck people, I am human!
Gimme a break.

So anyway, back to wi-fi and technology,
Dadman and I were finishing tonight's bottle
when I went to run my bath, but then,
I actually contemplated a shower
so that I could then have more time before bed
with my laptop

But the thought of having to climb three whole flights of
stairs to the upstairs shower deterred me.

"I wish there was a waterproof laptop
so that I could take it in the bath with me..."

Dadman, "You do know baths are for relaxing Aja?"

"Of course! Laptops, technology, emails,
browsing, writing, that's all relaxing!"

Then he shook his head at me like I was one of
those stereotyped asian computer geeks in movies.

Tell me the rest of you don't share this idea with me
that a computer in the bathtub would be the bomb?

Actually kan, maybe we do need help. This kind of dependency can't be healthy man. Its so bad when I go on holidays where there is not internet (=
