I apologize but Rux’s post is the post of the day! Hmm… In case she deletes it because of too many “F…..bad words”, it’s here as well :D
Info: Rux is an Erasmus in Kemi, Finland (January – April 2007)
and then he said: let there be Internet!
27 02 2007Motto: “Pinky, are you pondering what i’m pondering?”/”I think so Brain, but where are we going to find a monkey in a tu-tu at this hour?”
So…we’ve been trying to get this stupid internet connection here since we came, that is on the 12th of January!!! Needless to say we had been emailing our “tutor” here (the head of student union) a couple of months before arriving and of course she said it’s ok, you can get it in no time just have to make a “small” deposit of 300euros because we’re not residents, bla, bla… Ok…we got here, we head directly to the nearest provider (there are only 2, so…) we said we’re exchange, we would like to pay for an internet connection, we have the 300 euros, we have passports…
“yes, of course! it will take 3 weeks to open it.”
“what the fuck?!!? how come???(the lines/cables are already in the building, I saw that the first day we were here: UTP!!!UTP!!!) you know…you just have to switch it on or something…”.
Went across the street to the other ISP thinking we can surely get it faster: “it’s impossible without the Finnish social no.”. Went back to the first one: “ok, we’ll take it :D”
