Internet
I have noticed how this current age of technology has spoiled me. I expect there to be ‘free’ wireless internet continuously and the fact that I don’t makes me agitated. In the hostel you have to pay dollar for fifteen minutes of wireless, or go to some random internet café to get it elsewhere. As the price for the hostel wasn’t exactly low, I thought it would be included, but now I find myself logging in once a day, annoyed by the fact I have to pay a lot and I am dependant on the closing hours of the café, which is when the Dutch side of the world is awake. I am unable to check e-mails from possible landlords all the time, have been out of touch with the late news, football occurrences, family updates etc. It also makes Skyping a lot harder, but when it actually works out and I get to see Pedro, it makes me very happy. My parent’s I haven’t been able to talk to through skype yet unfortunately (although I wonder if my dad managed to install it, as he didn’t have the foggiest when I said we would skype). Luckily we found that the McDonald’s offers free internet and perhaps the university will have it.
