Places With No or Slow Internet Connection. ------------------------------------------- Wed - 13 Oct 2021 I'm going back to my hometown this afternoon, I'm so excited ! It's been like, 7 months since I move out and this is the first time I can see my family properly again. By properly I mean, I've been there at my hometown last September due to my father passed away *God bless my father*. My father died because of covid, so all my family member have to be quarantine that time. That's why I only can see them from far away, the most heartbreaking thing is my mother can't even be at my father's funeral. So that's why Im visiting them properly this time, it's not like I don't want to visit them, but my government just allow cross country this week. Before this, I always hate it there because of the internet connection, the internet provider *which dominate by one company, so you have to take anything the give or you don't get any internet at all* only give us 1mbps because my home locate on rural area. So I have to deal with bullshit internet for a long time, for a high price. I only got a taste of high speed internet after I moved out from there. The thing is, after I moved out, I really missed my hometown and how simple life there. And I missed my father, it just I can't spend more time with him before he passed away. Ok back to topic, since I will stay at my hometown for a weeks, I will not have a stable internet connection. So what can I do when I don't have internet connection: [] Read more books. [] Play with my nephew's daughter *which stay at my mother's*. [] Write articles to post here. [] Family time with my mother, I've been talking to her only on phone since my father died. [] Movies, I downloaded some movies that I can watch with my family; Using cable tv *Also dominate by one company with high price, so thanks god for netflix*. [] Take a walk with them, since I live at rural area so the scenery there is quite good. Maybe I can upload the pictures at arts section. [] Take time off from internet, I've been spending too much time on the internet after I moved out. So maybe this is the time to take time off, spend time with my family, maybe search for God, spend my time more on prayer ? [] Help my mother to settle some documents regarding my father, his taxes, loans etc. [] make this website more beautiful ------------------------------------------ The point is, if can, I want to spend less time from the internet and spend more time with my family. Before this, I never really see the point on family bonding. Because I've been living with them and I can see them everyday, it's like it's bonding time everyday. But after my father passed away, I regret that I didn't spend more time with him. The thing with dying is, you can't get them back, if someone you love or know die, they will go for good. You can never take them back, the only things they left you is memory. So that's why, make a lot of good memories with your family, lover, partners, friends and basically to all human beings. Just make a lot of happy memories, that all you got when the die. p/s: My wife work at IT company, so maybe I'll have to go to Starbucks or cafe if she need high speed internet connection.
