I recently paid for a new hosting and a new domain. Based on the company’s website they’re hosting more than 2000 domains and they’re even boasting 8 years of hosting services. Reputable huh? So, I signed-up a year contract. I made a payment through Bank Deposit. Sent the required email. Well, I thought that was too easy. But I was phacking wrong. I recently went to a beach trip thinking by the time I’m back the account will be activated. I checked my email and there it was, they sent me an email stating that my payment is past due! I logged in to the client area and sent a ticket. Amazing, less than an hour later someone from their staff sent me a message and that my payment has been posted and they sent me the system generated invoice. I thought my headache was gone but this was just the beginning! According to their terms and conditions, the account will be activated within 24 hours from the time they receive the payment. Guess what? It’s more than 24 hours and no word yet. I sent them a few tickets asking for any update but it has fallen to deaf ears! argh! argh! I’m beginning to loose my patience here. phack. phack. This is so frustrating. It has been 5 days already. Activating an account shouldn’t take this long based from experience. I’ve delayed a lot of my new entries because I’m excited with my new domain and I’m phackingly disappointed now! I hope someone from their staff will read this.

“To my NEW HOST, you hear me? Get a Life! I might cancel my subscription and take it somewhere else. I’ve got 30 days right?”

 

This is my first serious entry this year. I really dont have any idea how to start but I guess I have to start it anyway. lol. For the past three weeks my brain’s been teeming with ideas. But now, all those ideas are gone. Damn, internet connection. The PC is at a snail pace. I really dont know what to do about it. I’m always busy at work, by the time im home all I could think of is dozing off to slumberland. I missed the blogosphere. I miss nosing around other people’s blogs. I even missed checking out my friendster’s ‘who’s viewed me’. lol.

 

On a serious note, I kept on wondering what’s in store for me this 2008 both professionally and personally. Having friends at work really matters. They make work so much easier. I’ve learned so much the past year and I believe there’s so much for me to look forward this 2008. I’m keeping my fingers crossed on that. Well, I couldn’t say that I’m pretty much contented with where I’m at right now. Financially, I can manage them. Personally, I can still handle myself. Professionally, I’m in control. But somewhere inside me there’s this voice that keeps on telling me that there’s an empty space that needs to be filled. The question now is, What needs to be filled? That’s what I’ve been trying to find out for the past couple of weeks. I have faith so I’ll just have to continue searching while watching out for the signs. Life’s been pretty good to me lately but I couldn’t figure out what’s wrong. I tried surfing the web for articles that’s similar to what I’m experiencing now and the closes t topic I could find is “The Quarterlife Crisis” at wikipedia. As defined “The quarterlife crisis (QLC) is a term applied to the period of life immediately following the major changes of adolescence, usually ranging from the ages of 21 - 29. The term is named by analogy with mid-life crisis. It is now recognised by many therapists and professionals in the mental health field.“

Take a look at these (according to The Quarterlife Crisis at wikipedia) :

I’m beginning to hate my internet connection. I was in the process of tweaking my blog. I was upgrading my wordpress to the latest version when this happened.

WTF. Request timed out. I’m beginning to freak out. Argh!
I hope someone from Globe Telecoms could read this.
And do something about this or I’d shop around soon. lol.

 

Get a Life.

One can start thinking of web design consulting once he is done with domain registration. Contacting someone with a web design degree is better as a lot of
web templates don’t work well with many hosts and it is not like a cv template or a
calendar template that can be used anywhere. Like  flash templates, they need to customized.
