♥ Queen of all Grumpy Old Farts ♥

About the GrumpyQueen

A.K.A Gatekeeper

I love food, don't deprive me of it.

I'm not Princess, I'm Queen

I can be quite grumpy and when I am, I hide here, my dungeon for reflections, ramblings and ranting.

Whatever I write are opinions, and may not be the whole truth. Do not read it like the Gospel.

I hate as vehemently as I love
I already know I'm crazy, be my friend, it's safer

Different is not bad, just not the same as the rest

If you don't like me, it's probably mutual
But I'm nice, really :p

Comp's a basket case

Yesterday I was trying desperately to come online to de-stress. Told me I had some limited connectivity or some shit.

My sister, who is on her laptop is happily surfing the net.

Like that how can?! I know it was past midnight and therefore it's her birthday but they can't do this to me! It's still my birthday month!

Called starhub and when I finally got to speak to a human being, he told me things like my password is corrupted that's why only I can't go online. Told me to call my router's helpline for help. Gave me the number as well.

Called the router's helpdesk. Seriously, I have no complaints about their service but I don't understand their accent! I don't know if it's an American accent or Fillipino one. I just don't understand! And at 12:21 a.m, after 8 hours of work, the very last thing I wanna do is decipher accents.

So she told me to switch off the router or whatever. I told her to hold on 'cos I needed to inform my sis that her connection will be affected. By the time I came back to the line, the line got cut off. I felt like I was in some ulu kampong.

Where got like that? 1 min or so and I get cut off!

By now, my blood's probably coming to a boil.

1) Call starhub, cannot help
2) Call router's helpdesk, kena cut off
3) Problem still not solved.

I called back again, with good mind to scream into the phone the moment a human being talks to me. When I heard the ringtone, they cut me off AGAIN!

How rude la. I decided to try again and give them a piece of mind. This time, I didn't get cut off. The moment a human being spoke on the other end, miraculously, my MSN started working and I could go online.

Problem solved. I suspect my sister's ninjas were planning this, it's her birthday present. Or maybe the lizards were behind this, they're doing this 'cos they don't like me.

You know something? Everyone's a little crazy, some just don't get discovered. :p

Anyhow, HAPPY BIRTHDAY! :D
