Searching For The Great WIFI Spot
Bacolod could sometimes be soooo frustrating. Walang ganito, walang ganyan. Rawr.
Well, I've been living in the next city (Talisay) for almost a decade, so I can't really say I reside in Bacolod although I spend most of my hours there (school, work, lakwacha, you name it! :D).
There have been on and off blackouts both in Talisay and Bacolod for the past few days, and I must say, that IT'S ANNOYING ALREADY. With an online job like mine, blackouts are a complete no-no. To top it all off, Comet, my netbook, has a busted battery, which makes her an invalid when there is no electricity. So, yeah, plugged to an outlet forever until I buy a new battery or get a new lappie (hello to my Ate Anne and my Kuya Eson!!!).
Talisay, sadly, does not have any coffee shops to boast of that have generators AND free wifi. So yes, my city is more frustrating. :D
I've been packing my things to tag them along to a journey to find an internet haven. Sadly, not many establishments open at 7:30AM that offer what I'm looking for. Most have electricity but no WIFI. And finally, the only coffee shop that has saved my life for the past days is: STARBUCKS. I cannot express my gratitude to my favorite hotspot. Comfortable, but a tad too noisy whenever people flock during peak hours. Oh well, go figure. :)
So yes, I do work at Starbucks. But not behind the bar. :)
