Broadband Internet

Now that we have our own unit, we applied broadband internet so we can surf the net at home. Hubby can also “snake” work at home.

I think we have, like, 80 Gig a month (or something like that) – 40 Gig for off-peak hours and another 40 Gig for peak hours.

After a week or two, hubby looked at me with a somehow sad expression and sighed.

“Dear,” he sighed, “I think we’re overpaying the subscription and under-utilising the broadband.”

“Oh, really?” I questioned. It’s not so surprising to me, actually. I don’t go online at home. I don’t even want to open my notebook at home. My notebook shall sit quietly in my Hennley’s notebook bag (yes, she loaned it to me), in the corner of the room. I’ve been facing the notebook the whole 8-working-hours, and I’m not going to face it after work.

Yes... NOT even Facebook can tempt me...

I am DETERMINED!!

I am INVINCIBLE!!

Bwahahaha....

“Dear,” my hubby sighed again, “will you PLEASE make good use of the bandwidth? Else, I think we need to consider another subscription plan.”

Ah... my hubby is pleading me. How can I ignore his sorrowful cry for my help?

“Ok dearest, I’ll try my very best” I promised him.

And indeed, I fulfilled my promise to the maximum. I heed his cry. I noticed the pointless waste. And I stood in between the gaps... of the unused bandwidth...

And thus, I started my journey to redeem the lost ... and the unused bandwidth...

I started streaming Korean dramas.

In the beginning, I streamed 1-2 episodes per night. The drama is really very interesting. Then, I streamed 2-3 episodes per night. And then, 3-4 episodes per night. I usually sleep before midnight. These days, I’ve been sleeping at 1 AM. I’m almost finished with one drama, and already planning which drama to watch next. Oh, and I’m kinda watching two dramas together. My motivation to go home after work is to watch Korean dramas!

YES! I saved the day!

And then, suddenly... one fine day...

“Dear,” my hubby sighed again, “I think you’re over-using the bandwidth. At the rate you’re going, I think we’ll be out of bandwidth before the end of the month”.

But, I thought I saved the day?!?!?!

Ok ok, I get it. MODERATION. Nowadays, I do watch my beloved Korean dramas. But with moderation. Hope this discipline lasts (n_n)/

My Girl - I know, it's kinda old and 8TV aired it about 1-2 years ago. But I missed it. All thanks to my wonderful workaholic personality (and my work that feeds my workaholicsm). Love the storyline. Love the characters. Love them all!


Boys Over Flowers - Korean version of the Japanese manga "Hana Yori Dango". A LOT better than the Taiwanese version "Meteor Garden". Cuter boys and girls. Though I don't really like those scenes in the drama where the characters just stared at each other/play around/having fun/looking sad/thinking/etc., with some catchy/sad/romantic background music, for a very very very looooong time. Fast forward!
