Internet dependency

The recent internet disruption fiasco due to damaged submarine telecommunications cables, as result of the Taiwan earthquakes, have made me realise how utterly dependent I have become on the internet. The speeds I’ve been getting for some websites tonight are reminiscent of the good ole days of 9.6k PC modems; and it’s driving me nuts!!

Go read a book Terra or get a life.
(On a side note, meeting up with friends over dinner today was really nice)

Funny how I’m perfectly fine without network access while overseas on vacation but having to go (semi-)cold turkey this holiday season, stuck in the little red dot is nearly too much to bear!
