Ms Wireless and Mr Internet

I used to think that the INTERNET was no big deal. I mean, I lived without it for 2 decades right? So when my lil lappie's MS Wireless' hardware broke down, I was sad for sure. But I didn't realise just how big an  impact the absence of dear ol' Mr Internet would cause... Here's a tale of dear Ms Wireless and Mr Internet.

Ms Wireless and Mr Internet

You see, there wouldn't be a story if in the beginning, a certain Mr Internet wasn't so elusive. Only through a few particular means can we humans meet this very knowledgeable, wise but sometimes unpredictable character. He's a source of knowledge for so many. The only problem is, he can only be found in the presence of dear Ms Wireless.

About a month ago, right before mid-terms. We had just finished rushing a particularly headache-fying assignment on the canning of chicken curry. That was when Ms Wireless decided to 'mogok' and run away. (That's her "I Don't Wanna Be Your Friend Anymore" pose on the right.) I was really down, but only momentarily. It was after all exam season. I took it as a SIGN from God to quit Pet Society-ing and start book-ing. So I did. Sort of. Hahaha. Or at least more than I would have if Ms Wireless was still on good terms with me. =) I still constantly checked to see if Ms Wireless decided to come back but I was always greeted with the same hollow emptiness when I knocked on her door.

Then the rush of exams ended and I turned my lil baby lappie on. Lo and behold! Ms Wireless returned! It all seemed so surreal... It was truly as if God decided I could have some R&R after all the stress. YAY! I was so happy, I forgot to ask her why she left in the first place.

But nothing lasts forever. After 2 days of exhilaration with Ms Wireless and her good friend Mr Internet, she left again. Like before, there was no indication as to why she left. I never even got a chance to say goodbye. No more Ms Wireless and Mr Internet.

So there I was, living life without the two very important non-living personas in a student's life. =(  Though I had glimpses of them once in awhile through the lappie of Eeleen. (THANK YOU EELEEN!!!) but it was just never the same. It's like, having a puppy in your own home versus playing with your neighbour's one.

So I finally brought my lappie to a doctor and after 3 excrutiating lappie-less days, the doctor said it was too late. There was nothing she could do. It turns out all this while, Ms Wireless was gravely ill and now she's gone to tech heaven. 

Rest in peace Ms Wireless. 

So today, I searched far and wide before I finally found a Ms Wireless Receiver who also had Mr Internet's number! Hooray!

THE END
