Mission I: Operation Garbage Dump
Since we are living in cute kampung community, we have been having problem of getting rid of our garbage. There is no door-to-door garbage pick-up service by the MPKT people in this area. The makciks around here just burn their garbage – contributing to the bad haze in KT.
Hence, on our 2nd day here, we went out in search for a place to dump our garbage. Our 1st location was a huge dumpster that we saw in front of a shopping complex that we visited the night before. So, dengan muka tak malu, I stopped my car close to the dumpster, while my accomplice went out to get the stinky garbage out of my car boot. Rasa macam nak rompak bank laa pulak, coz my partner actually checked out if there was any guards/police around at that time… hehehe.. Padahal nak buang sampah aje..
On our way back, we found two other huge dumpsters about 2 kilometres away from our house. So now we no longer behaved like criminals… Now main campak aje the garbage out of the open window.. Dah terror… hehehe
Mission I accomplished!
Mission II: Operation Wi-Fi tracker
Being so used to having 24/7 connectivity, I felt like a lipas kudung since I came here. Mana tak nya, there were no wi-fi signals around the house. I thought being the neighbour of the MB would give me a chance to surf the net from home. Alangkah keciwanya when I found no single wi-fi signal… Takkan anak MB tak guna Internet kut? Hampa sungguh!
So last Friday, after almost 10 days of no connectivity (cuti raya), I drove around town with my notebook on my lap, trying to track any free wi-fi signals around town. There were actually quite a few on Jalan Sultan Ismail. However, I can’t seem to be able to connect to any of it, either due to the secured connection or weak signals. I went from one building to another, driving ever so slowly, just to get the maximum signal strength. Siap buat illegal U-turns 2-3 times around the block tuh. Pathetic kan….?
Finally, I was able to get a good connection. Punya laa happy… Skali bukak web browser, it prompted for the TM Hotspot password… Hampa lagi!
Not willing to surrender just yet, I went in search for the Hotspot prepaid pack. The only place that I thought would stock it was 7-E, since they sell all sorts of prepaid reloads. I stopped to almost all the 7-Es that I know of – semua never heard of the Hotspot pack. Then I thought of the TM shop, but memang sah cannot get it that day laa kan, since it was a Friday and plus it was close to 7 p.m.
In the end, I gave up and went back home dengan perasaan yang hampa.
Mission II failed!
More missions in KT to come.....
