Do you want to know why? It is because I don't have an internet connection from Saturday in the afternoon until Monday dawn. I thought it was nothing serious but then no progress so I decided to call the customer service of my internet provider. They said there have technical problems in our area. I slept early Sunday night. I woke up this morning and yes, the internet is back!

haha, good that your internet is back again! Well, if there's no connection, u can always go out of the house, get some fresh air, shopping or even relax at home ^^ I'm fine without the internet and actually i feel more at ease without it.. lol I rather be out, doing what i enjoy, going for my workouts and more. By staying home, i'm wasting money on electricity when i'm doing some aimless surfing that yield no results at all

Ohh that's bad, it happened to me all the time sometimes I have connection but the problem is the speed it was too slow, specially at weekends for everybody are using internet. I just call on and call on to report my problem to the costumer service of my provider I'll keep on follow up them, I just told them internet is very important to me, it makes a living to me . Maybe it just my life without internet my life is so boring.

I don't have a problem with slow internet connection though I have shared my connection with my neighbor. You have the valid reason why it is slow but there are ways for you to make it fast. Internet for me is also very important in all sense. I have never imagined yet my life without it.

it really sucks when ur on a restday or break frm school, planning to stay at home, but nothing to do because there's no connection.
Its the only thing that keeps me grounded hahaha.. I feel useless with a computer (with internet connection)
You might wanna download series or movies so u'll have other things to do if ur internets down again..

What a relief that you got your internet connection back.I agree it is so boring without the internet.It enables us to gain access to the whole world virtually at our fingertips and without it we feel lost.The internet has become an essential part of our lives and we cannot imagine life without it since it would be drab and boring.

Aside from those things that you have said, I can now also earn money through internet. That is the thing that bothers me a lot. But it is okay as long as the internet is back. I hope it will not happen again. I also have many things to do aside from making money.

Well, at least you got your internet back. I had a pretty tame weekend myself. I went out with friends after work on Friday but I was home relatively early. I perfected the art form of laziness on Saturday, all along thinking that I had to fill-in at my second job on Sunday morning. I showed up this morning and they had scheduled me and someone else to cover for someone so I ended up leaving and going home to waste time playing video games and play around with the internet.
Sometimes, slow weekends are the good ones. They allow you to recharge and recuperate.

For a lot of us, the internet really has become a part of our daily lives. It somehow affects our day if we can't access it. I myself need it for my work and other online earnings. One day without it would be a significant loss of money for me. But there's usually a bright side to it. At least you got to sleep early. I'll bet if the service wasn't cut, you'll be sleeping late again :)

Internet in all sense has played a big role in my life ever since I had this. I was temporarily paralyzed knowing that I don't have an internet yesterday. It was a bad news for me. I got things to do which need the help of the internet. And yes, I was able to get to sleep early though I have an headache. Maybe because I was not used of early sleeping.

Dear friend, we Italians have a saying: "All is well that ends well." I can understand your boredom, spend a Sunday without an internet connection and above all without even a chance to do some work on Mylot, it must be really boring.
However I am happy for you, for the fact that now things have settled in the best possible way and now you are back online.

Damn, sorry to hear that. However I do see a positive in this situation, with all that free time that you have you would be able to go outside and enjoy the fresh air or read a book. There are more things to life than just the internet :)
