Naka internet na kami dito sa province! Yay! Babaw… Hehe.
Just a few hours ago, the setup guys has finally installed our broadband connection. I am only half-happy though. Our PC restarts every time we attempt to download a file. Darn.
Last week kami nag-apply for the broadband connection. It was good timing too because a few days before that day, my aunt from London asked if we can have an internet connection here. Anyway, we applied through an agent — the application was done in our house. It was my mom who dealt with the agent and the forms. I was the one who signed it. We paid.. then my mom started to ask what if naloko kami or something. Just to make sure, I called the agent and asked for their office number here in La Union to verify if he is really an agent (although that would be too late). He gave us a number. I dialled it — it rang, at least it rang… but nobody’s answering. My mom’s suspicions heightened. She was ready to call her friend, a radio reporter in our region, to report the incident but I suggested we try and wait first. We browsed through the yellow pages in the directory and confirmed that the agent gave us the correct number. So we dialled again and again and again until finally somebody answered the phone and confirmed that our suspicions were wrong. Reporting our suspicion to the local radio station would have been embarassing.
Anyway, at least may internet na ngayon dito. Now, who would pay the bills?
