New Me

Well I decided to cave in and I actually bought the new iPhone 4. I’ve had the same phone for the past five years so it was time for an upgrade. Although I really disagree with AT&T for putting a bandwidth cap on their data plans it doesn’t really affect me all that much. I’m not going to be using it all the time, plus if I’m connected to Wi-Fi then whatever I’m doing won’t count towards my data plan usage. I’ll just have to make sure that when I go somewhere new that I check and see if I can hook up to their Wi-Fi.
I’m also all moved into my new duplex, which I must say is a huge upgrade from my previous location. When I got out of the Navy I had to find a place that I could afford until my GI Bill kicked in so I ended up just living at Tanglewood, which are pretty run down apartments, but cheap. After my GI Bill kicked in when I started going to college I started looking for somewhere better to move to and was actually checking into Terrace Green Apartments which are extremely nice but they were so expensive that I figured it’d be cheaper to just rent a duplex. I looked into it a bit and found that I was right but when I started looking and talking to the landlords I ran into a little problem, my little kitten. Apparently it’s really hard to find a duplex around town that will let you have pets, at least that are available. Thankfully I found this one though and it seems like everything’s going to work out great! I was a little worried when I was moving in because I’m taking two internet classes this summer and I hadn’t done all my homework so I had to rush to get it hooked up, which ended up being quiet the hassle. I had AT&T’s Elite internet package but for some reason they couldn’t service my new location so I had to find a new provider, as we all now can be a tedious project. I wanted to get Cox Internet service since I have some friends that have it and I know it’s a good service, however I ran into the same problem, they don’t service my new location. I ended up just going to Cable One and found out about their Premium internet service, which is $10 more than what I was paying for at AT&T but it’s a 10meg connect instead of the 6meg I had with AT&T, and I figured it would be the best I could get right now and it’s a really good speed so here I am, a new Cable One customer. What was great that the person who lived here last had the same internet service I did and they hadn’t turned it off yet so they didn’t even really have to activate it or anything. I just hooked everything up and I was good to go! Unfortunately I couldn’t really do much of anything except all the homework that was due.
