I am sound in my own comforts of home. Though I am cushioning myself with this comfort, I need to bear in mind about the ongoing assignments which I have obliged to finish. Never mind that.
Before this, I have read the news about the government's effort to improve the airports' services. Among these includes the availability of wireless internet in all major airports in Malaysia. I was a little jubilant about this but kept on pondering of when will they ever get this done. My prayers were answered. Prior to touchdown to LCCT, I noticed more people were hooked up to their laptops. I shrugged this off, however, considering that they were bored as they have hours more to go before taking their next flight. Curious had always been my second nature - I looked on. Then I spotted YouTube on one of the LCD laptop screens. Possibility of WiFi? I gave it 40 percent. As a habit, I headed on to Coffee Bean. I glanced over the counter when I noticed a brochure about WiFi. Coincidence? Maybe. Conjecture up to 50 percent. After placing my order and grabbed a seat, I made an assuring discovery to my theory. A WiFi router - and it's functioning. Conjecture up again, 80 percent. To settle any doubts, I took out my laptop and have a try.
Hit on the power button.
Connecting... and connected.. to KLIA-WIFI connection.
Opened up Firefox.
Welcome to KLIA WIFI connection.
Houston, we have lift-off!
At least, from now on, there won't be any bored moments in the airport everytime I am on the move. I am glad. I just hope that this will be done to all airports in Malaysia, and that includes Kota Baharu and Miri.
Speaking of bored moments, I always experience these everytime I am travelling back home for the holidays. Those dull moments never cease to go away until I have arrived to destination. But not this time. On my way to KL, I was with Max, and at the airport, I had a short reunion with Ah Tat, my roommate. Even my flight bound to Miri, I had a surprise company, Karen. An old friend - we had not seen each other since ages. So throughout the flight, we had chatted our hearts out. Talk about being so talkative. All I ever wish is the similar fate everytime I am going to and fro Miri and Kota Baharu. I'll be like the luckiest guy if that really happens all the time.
