June, it's here already?

I must admit, that I haven't updated my bloggie in a while....yes I am guilty....sentence me to a slow internet connection!! What’s that? There is no such thing as a slow connection in Malaysia?? Well not where I stay. Now, I don't really want to mention the name of the place that I stay in for fear that they might.....OH BUGGER IT. Here at Sunway they offer internet connection 24hrs a day.....what they don't tell you is, that it is damn slow, sometimes so bad that it totally disconnects....and guess I think I am the only bloody idiot that complains......

Now I am not sure if it is the language barrier (I didn't think there was one) but for some reason the people operating the telephones at TAJ 2. Yes, you read that properly, TAJ, as in TAJ MAHAL, they answer the phone by saying:

"TAJ 2 hello" And since I have arrived, I have never understood what the hell they are saying TAJ 2 for? I went outside had a look at the building, and blow me over if I was wrong, but this place looks nothing like the TAJ MAHAL, so how could they call it the TAJ 2?? Anyways, I eventually found out that "TAJ 2" was actually an attempt at saying "TOUCH 2"
Meaning: Touch button number 2 on your phone (the service number:2)

So after finding that out I felt like Einstein, except taller, and I haven't got as much hair as him.....but nonetheless, I proceeded to try explaining to them that the internet has a problem. But that turns into a 3 hour drama......gee wiz. Now I have decided that I will refrain from speaking at fast pace....and I am also trying to pronounce my words properly...well I always thought I did. After a long day at work, it gets quiet tense when you get these dof responses.....like did you plug in the cable....and did you click internet explorer......what do they think? I sit staring at the screen hoping the porn pages pop up? Just kidding, I use the internet for research....porn is bad and should be banned!!

I guess at this point the Hotel is seriously pissing me off, and I could go on for yonks complaining, but I won't!! Lucky you!

I was Ronaldo for a few minutes about two weeks ago....we had a futsal (indoor soccer) game for the guys in the office, it was fun until.........twist...creak...pop.....and there went my right ankle! No that kinda pain is not fun....so I was outta action for a week and a half....but slowly getting back into it and have started cycling in the gym at night....still sore, but I will get it right. I have to get it right...I have the Camerons Epic on the 1st July 2006.

Well peeps, this is it for now...I am off...and lets hope my Ma's move up to Pretoria goes well!!
