Gossiping with mom
When I was about to reach medan airport, out of the blue, the sky turned dark and started to rain heavily. Later on I was shocked because the new arrival hall is not the same as it used to be. It was much smaller and so messy. The people were so rude. They never queued properly. On the same time, some people pushed their lugage and trollery here and there.. Ouch.. I heard two womens shouted because the trolleys hit their feet. I could hear everyone's complain. They were not satisfy with the services. Worst among the worst, my mom who is waiting for me outside, couldnt find shelter. Soon, She was drenched. And she complained to me.
I asked my mom what was happening? she told me that the previous arrival hall is under renovation. they have no choice but anyhow built the temporary arrival hall.
After that, we headed to sun plaza, we started chattin along the way, She told me the current latest news..she updated me with what is happening lately. I know it has been so long that i never chat with my mom like this before. In Singapore, if my mom called me, we would only chat for a while.. because we dont want to spend so much $$$ on hp bill.
Soon, my sister suggested we should install internet access in our home so that it much more convenient for my mom to chat with me. obviously we wanted to do that long time ago. we always encountered problems installing internet such as phone trouble, cannot have the network in our home around, or my mom not sure how to use it. And now that my sister is familiar with internet, we decided to install it.
Both of us went to the Internet service provider and register for the broadband access. my sister was so happy. Thinking that everything was perfectly planned, we never tot it could cause any troubles. Until the day, technician came and installed it, he told us that our phone channel was not able to detect the internet... WHY? he said that becos our phone connection is parallel....... What to do? have to remove all the parallel line, he said. It's impossible then cos for sure my father will kill us if we remove all the parallel telephone lines.
Sigh..... thinking.... ΒΆ 2:19 AM
