saiyaku desu~~~~I'm sorry

I haven't ranted about it, which could be why I keep having this heavy feeling inside myself.

It could be my fault for downloading almost 15 gb of media in the span of less than one week, that got my major Arashi download site blocked by the SwinB IT department. I'm really sorry, Yvonne. Sorry I got carried away just cause the speed was extremely good that I went crazy with the download manager. Now, your only resource for downloading Arashi media is gone...

Demo ne? I wonder if it really is my fault. That's pretty awesome, if the site could get blocked just cause of me alone downloading from that site. 'cos I do know some people who download from mediafire~~~~(this makes me seem like avoiding the blame. But what I mean is the mere action of me downloading can get a site banned - sugokunai?)

Haih. If it wasn't for my stupid internet being so slow at home, I wouldn't download that much using the uni internet. My home net speed has been so slow you wouldn't even believe it. Just makes you wanna close the browser, plug out the wireless modem, and catapult it out of the window onto my neighbours' house / flush it down the toilet / smash it into pieces / throw it at the face of whoever works at celcom / whatever to get rid of it. It's so damn freakin slow it takes forever to load a webpage. And you know how webpages nowadays are graphic heavy.....

It's slower than dialup, damnit! Someone should lodge a complaint against celcom!

I understand throttling. I understand the fair usage policy, what that is for. I am not exactly against it. It makes things.........fair. Sort of.

But what I don't understand is the 5gb data limit. Why 5gb? ANYone could easily use 5gb in less than a month's time. A 5gb data limit is totally illogical. Since webpages are graphics heavy. Since we have youtube. Forget anything 'streaming' if you wanna keep within your 5gb data limit in a month. Why not 30gb? Okay, if stingy, then make it 15gb. I could with my very best keep within 15gb per month. But 5gb - definitely cannot. Unless all I do on the web is check my mail.

Why don't we all go back to being cavemen and cavewomen instead. Don't need to have anything to do with technology anymore.

Once the 5gb data limit is reached, the line is throttled to 30kbps. You can't do anything with 30kbps! Nothing at all. Again, websites - graphics heavy. Even the celcom official site is damn damn hard to load. It takes forever! I mean, if you're gonna offer slow net speed, create a site with simple html instead.

Maybe you reading this is thinking, why is she complaining. If you're wondering that and not understanding why, you could stop reading now...



I don't have anywhere to download my Arashi media now. Isn't that sad? It's there but I can't download it. I think I am gonna leave this country and go stay somewhere else when I work, if I possibly can. It sucks being here.

Sigh.

Probably the only one who knows how I am feeling right now is Yvonne. Yvonne, you said don't jump off the 9th floor of the building; I am not gonna do that but still it feels terrible not being able to download what I want. I hate being restricted for anything. There's not even anything we can possibly do to solve the problem.
