yup. that's it. the internet connection at my place died for one week already and nobody is doing anything to help. i would if i know your details. i could call up optus and ask why. i hate it when my only entertain at home is cut off. tv is not really an entertainment here cos the shows suck basically. goodness. and my car had to break down twice in a week. once at jesmond and this time, in front of my neighbour's place. my car died. so i decided not to bother any of my friends and called up NRMA, this car insurance company that i signed up for. and they told me that they will be here within 0 to 60 minutes from the time i ringed them. and i was like "is it possible if you give a call when your guys get here?" and the damn operator said no, that i have to wait in the car, under the hot sun for them to come and they fucking came after 55 minutes of me sitting in my car looking like an idiot and trying to look busy when some one drove or walked passed me. what the hell. bad service! and their advertisemnet said that they will provide courtesy ride when your car break down and when i asked for a ride to school, he said that it's not on the way. what bullshit advertisement and empty promise. and after he changed the battery, and asked me to start the engine to see if it works, he said that my ALTERNATOR is faulty. what the hell on earth is an alternator! he said it's over-charging the battery causing the battery to die and that if i were to drive off with the alternator like that, my new battery will be flat by tonight. so he suggested that i should get my car towed away and get my alternator fixed at $309!!! i think i should learn how to print money. and so all my plans of the day were spoilt by my ah POK! i planned to go shopping , do grocery, go to the gym, library to borrow my book and now, i can't do any of that. and i haven't done any of that till now, it's 11.30pm here now. and i have to go for HORSE riding tmr at Peats Ridge and my bar BROKE DOWN. i feel so darn pathetic k. i got to call jeremy and asked if he could pick me up for golf too, and thank god he's nice, he got bing to pick me up for golf and after that sent me home to pack my stuffs so that i can stayover at april's house and walk over to his place at 6m in the morning to drive his car out. i feel helpless without a car and the internet. and i just submitted an assignment on thursday and got another one due this coming tues. darn.
