I seems to have nothing much to blog about lately. Yah, school had started, workload are coming in... but that is so yesterday's news. Oh... Now that's probably why life feels monotonous all of a sudden.
The only major fluctuations I have been experiencing recently are probably only emotionally. I am not quite comfortable about indepth blogging on this part of me up here in the "open". And for some reasons I'd rather not talk about this now. So sharing is NOT permitted. But dear friends, rest assure that it is nothing upsetting :o) Hmm...
I am so missing my friends. I guess when life slows down, we do have more time to be sentimental. Jac, Tian, Xian and Empress, better meet up soon ok? Meet up before you have me cursing and swearing with tons of misses till you drop your sneezy noses!!
Oh, I just changed my mobile plan yesterday! I was using M1's Ultimate plan since like forever, and it was fine until recently the horrible chatterbox in me unwittingly doubled the bill! So I had it changed it to the Student Plan. Whew, luckily I was still well within its age-limit condition to sign up for it. This mobile plan must be like God-sent!
The only downs are, I've been downgraded from 2000minstalktime to a pathetic 150mins a month and I lost my loyalty discount. Losing these were painful, I assure you. Sob... But on the brighter side. there is this whole chunk of benefits that I can't even comprehend --- That's youngster's stuff, and I'm undeniably passe. Gee... What I did catch was that now I have "whole day FREE incoming calls" and an allowance of 1000 sms per month! And what's neater is, I get to call 3 M1 numbers for FREE! Yes, FREE!! And IF I do not fancy these in months to come, I can always swop my benefits to free dialling in my campus. All these for a quarter of the price of my former Ultimate plan. How cool is that!
Did I say being a student is GREAT? Haha!! Ok... Maybe I should wait till my next mobile bill arrives before I say this again... Bleh...
Actually I was quite tempted to convert my existing number to a pager. Yes, PAGER. And yes, I am aware that that is like old school technology already. But I guess everyone who knows me knows too that I am seriously lacking the habit of replying messages, returning calls or even picking up calls. Laziness maybe a reason. Forgetfulness maybe another... Or perhaps for certain other reasons, I just don't fancy doing all these.
My mobile phone like is my key to the outside world, a key I definitely can't do without. Yet as much as friends conquer majority of my thoughts and as much as I adore being with my friends, sometimes I'd feel that having a mobile robs away the quietness and privacy that I so often need. And sadly over time, it occasionally becomes an annoyingly demanding tool that I detest.
When people make approaches to contact, they naturally expect the other party to response... and response FAST enough. A reasonable obligation, no doubt about that. Yet every often and to be honest... pretty apologetically, I'd fail to meet up with such expectations. Needless to say, it is inevitable that some buzzing at the ear stresses my next attempt to make contact, coupled with some quick explanations to make, and perhaps even a white lie or two to go with it. I cannot blame anyone but myself at this point on why didn't I apply for a pager instead?
But seriously thinking, I don't think I can ever do without a mobile phone and I am not going to stupidly waste money on another pager. So I guess the next time anyone asks me for my number, I am just going to tell him/her my mobile number, garnished with a little fabrication that its actually just a pager line.
And to all who already knows, just pretend from now on that I REALLY am holding a pager, ok? Hahaha.
Wow, this is quite a long entry... Did I just say that I have nothing much to blog about lately?? Hehe.
