I will think of new kind of Categorizing my Blogroll but for now this is what I came out with.
I will always read your feed…as long as I don’t lost the link…and as long as the feed is working.
I know I look really skinny
So…you might heard the above phrase. “Our name is our virtue” yes it is in Jazon Mraz’s song “I’m Yours”. For me aside from the phrase “I’m Yours” which repeatedly sung in the chorus, it is this “Our name …” phrase that caught my attention. I don’t actually understand the whole song but this part just stick in my mind quite easily because it bears some meaning for me.
So just to recall everything…I started blogging seriously (which is a relative term) about a year and a half ago. It was my on my very birthday (Check it here). I initially not using wordpress.com but Blogger or blogspot.com (here). I was clearly damn lonely (and always is) at that time hence “Unnnoticed Neglected Overlooked” was the name of the blog. Then later it became “Days Without Miracle” or “DWM”. Both blogs names are very negative and sad because they do reflect me. Out of the picture there were few blogs attempt before that. I own domain “mousukoshi.com” which does not exist anymore. I miserably left it unpaid and unupdated for some reasons.
There is one similarity between all three of my blogs that prevail to this day. The url. All of them contains my real name. First alvinalexander.blogspot.com then alvinalexander.wordpress.com and now alvinalexander.net. Yes I am self obsessed and proud or my own name. It is a beautiful name. Alvin Alexander the most beautiful name and I love it when I listen people saying it.
First things first…
I actually really love Monday partly because I can get connected to the internet very early in the morning. I wake really early (or I do not sleep at all like this morning) and wait for the bus. Enter my lab/office. With high spirit I will turn on the computer and plug in the LAN cable.
First… I will check the email ( I saw quite a number of unread email this morning which are 7 Gmail and 10 Yahoo, some of them are spam.)
Then I will open Distrowatch.com and LinuxToday.com and read all interesting news.
Then I read the front page of MalaysiaKini.com bm version for a slight view of the politics.
Then I open Twitter and Plurk which I recently found really interesting recently.
Then (barulah) I approve comments on my blog which usually none… and if I got Idea I will post some entry (which are sometimes meaningless like this one).
Some other things I do are updating everything updatable like Kaspersky and Windows…and whatever cross my mind like updating Firefox and what not.
I think that’s all. (I wonder why my recent posts were all in Net Work category?)
This is some stupid thing to say that E-mail is actually fun…they are not fun at all because everytime I open it I need to delete those detested spam…although I always mark them spam but they always come again…Yahoo! certainly have their way to make people buy their service eh…
I AM NOW PLURKing…Yeah I have a Plurk account now…and I am plurking via mobile and via computer…I also found out that plurking using Opera Mini on my 6600 a.k.a sabun is a lot cheaper than TWITTERing on the same device using small piece of software called MiniTwitter.
Although I personally think that Plurk is more fun but I don’t plan to ditch Twitter yet. I just give it some more time…
Snapshot of my Plurk page...
On Impulse…that’s all I can say… I just started out…Look at my sidebar…
I plan to use Tiny Twitter and Twit from my phone…my codename “Sabun” phone the 6600.
I don’t know what this twitter thing really is yet but I think I will love it.
Maybe later I will start “plurk”ing maybe…If I find that I can manage them all…
So anybody who already know the game…I humbly ask for guidance….yooroshiku onegaishimasu.
Wah the title sound so serious… actually I am saying that everytime I start to blog…internet connection will suddenly pull away from me. Disconnected here disconnected there…why ah? So weird…
Last week was the Raya holiday for U so not much of peoples stayed at the hostel. So the internet connection was magnificiently fantabulous fast and brilliant. I mean the free wireless internet connection offered by UTM. I was so happy and decided to resume a long hiatus of my blog, enthusiastically of course…suddenly one night the rain pouring heavily it was cold and cold indeed what it does to me…the internet got disconnected probably because of thunder…An internet addict got disconnected…I felt so helpless and hopeless for few days…I desperately go online using my old 6600 codename “Sabun”. I even found out that my “Sabun” is capable of Internet Messenger…I never know that….(using e-buddy). I also installed opera…Guess how much did I spend… my credit was reduce from RM90 to RM40 just for 4 days… You can’t imagine what internet addiction can do to you…
I just wrote a fuckingly long post and I wrote it for few hours. Suddenly when I hit publish the connection failed me. I saw wordpress saving drafts countless times during writing and I believed it. When I get back to the draft I saw only 2 sentences. The only draft that save was the earliest one. So stupid and I curse them all. My morale for writing post has falling to hell. I retired for today. I try to forget this incident and learn the lesson. (Note : It is really rare for me to curse)
(Disclaimer : I’ve nothing to do with service provider I’ll mention later, I’m just a loyal user)
Internet connection is already a needs for peoples nowadays. Although some might think that Internet is just another reason to waste our precious time. This is the age of internet technology when the whole world is at our fingertips so to say. Enough with exam’s essay like writing. I’ll proceed with my main concern. I need a broadband service a.k.a internet connection.
Internet has again become my routine. What do I do every time I go online?
The first thing I do is click on FXPro Metatrader. A trading platform for Forex. I actually still train myself using demo account. No risk and fun. After I gain a bit of experience and everything set in place I will try using some actual money. It takes quite amount of concentration do actually play Forex. But it is really interesting and fun (in case of using demo currency) because it’s like playing any kind of game. However I am sure it kinda creepy to think that I can loose few hundred in seconds as well as gain them.
