I barely update my blog these days. Blame it to my zero internet connection. I have yet to find time to look for a new internet provider since I had my previous ISP (Globe Broadband) disconnected. I have been dilly-dallying mainly because I am having a hard time choosing. I had quite an awful experience with my previous provider and I don’t want to deal with the same problems again. So, I am carefully considering my options.
It’s really hard not having internet at home. Although, I’m lucky enough to have internet connection at work it’s never the same as sitting in front of my laptop with the homey atmosphere surrounding me. Plus the fact that, I have to use proxies to access non-work related sites to get away from I.T. who are being paid to make sure we don’t enjoy the hours we stay at work.
For now I have to make do with the few hours I can get away from my work load to update my blog and do my dropping chores at the cafés where there is a better chance of a much faster connection. And since I don’t really like staying at cafés - if only I have a choice- I have not been consistent doing my EC rounds too. So, I am really thankful to those who unlike me were constantly swinging by my blog everyday. I really appreciate all your efforts and I hope I can return the favor real soon. I’d like to make a special mention of Windy who has been eager to help me with something I’d like to do with my blog yet; I wasn’t able to reply to his messages immediately. I really feel bad about that and I’m really sorry If I disappointed you but as I have said in my EC message, my weekends which happens to be my day offs too, are always busy. I take these days as an opportunity to unwind and so, I rarely spend them online. I hope you will not take that against me *wink*.
As of now, I am thinking if I will choose PLDT over Sky Broadband. I have spoken to some of my office mates and they said PLDT is working fine for them. On the other hand, Sky Broadband, the newest ISP to hit the market which offers a faster connection although I’m not so sure if this is just all market-driven hype to attract possible subscribers. I have read many internet forums too to make sure I will not make the wrong choice again.
At any rate, I just hope I will have my new ISP soon. It will surely make everything easier for me. I just realized its importance in my life now that I have to go to the café to pay my bills and do some bank transactions online *sigh*. I think these are just some perks of the internet I find hard to live without and the fact that I can’t attend to my blogging chores religiously.
Do wish me good luck on my search for the perfect ISP. I really hope I’ll get connected soon. ^_^
