I had a forced absence from blogging. Due to the aforementioned restricted access in school and other things going on in the evening I was unable to use tinternet in the hotel. But I am back. And I bring you tidings of great joy.
I no longer live in a hotel. Oh no no. The planets aligned together to provide an apartment that was available immediately. I also managed to get my employment pass (critical to getting an apartment I discovered) in the nick of time. The apartment was not too much over my budget and I was the successful bidder. I moved in on Saturday and yet spent a considerable amount of time in Ikea. Saturday was my very first trip, but the novelty wore off by Sunday.
The great news for you is that my apartment has two bedrooms so if you are headed Singapore way, you may be allowed to lay your head on my spare bed. Today I got my tenancy agreement and so could get my mobile, digital TV and yes, tinternet. It was all instantaneous. None of this waiting around for the connection to be made, no no. By the time I made it home (with bagfuls of equipment) and plugged it all in, it was connected to the rest of the world again.
In the shop I had to pick all the different channels I wanted. I have the best of both worlds, with American and British channels. I ummed and ahhed a bit deciding between HBO and Sports. I plumped for the sports option. When I came home I discovered that I have all the channels. It reminds me of the episode in Friends where Chandler and Joey get free porn. Except that I get free cartoons. I imagine it is an oversight at this point and one day when I come home to watch Bear in the Big Blue House I’ll be sorely disappointed.
Anyway, it is now game on with emails, blogs and skype!
