Little things that i want to say about

Mood :

Music : None

It's already 4 days since my arrival, and (not) so many things happen in that time. When i arrived in columbus, it's winter season in here, and also there is snow too. The temperature may vary between -10 degree celcius in the night to around 10 degree celcius in noon. And there is possibility blizzard / snowstorm happening in near future. Most of the area are covered by snow except for the road itself. The vegetation are dead, the only thing we can see from the tree is the trunk.

The apartment is located in the north area, north riverside residential area. When i say apartment, it's not like what you think like the apartment in the big city, in here where i stay there are only 2 buildings, 3 floor tall for each building, and separate by parking lot. We occupy apartment number 216, it has 2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, 1 closet, kitchen area that merge with tv room. Each apartment furnished with carpet and also air cooling system that double as heater. The interior are painted in white.

For entertaiment there is a cable tv that my sister subscribe, the name of the operator i think time warner cable. The subscribtion is the premium one, so not all the channels open, right now there is around 200 channels to watch, but if you have full one, the channels can be double to 2-3 times. Beside that they also provide movies on demand, it's not just movies cause there are also tv series, news, music, etc that i think popular, you can watch all of those anytime, it's just like playing vcd/dvd or cd/cassete but with no media. To make it easier it's just like sharing the files on computer, one computer share the files to another computer, so everyone can acces the files on that computer.

Other than that we also have intenet connection, DSL i think. We got the connection from neigbors (which are indonesian too), our neighbors subscribe to DSL provider (he said roadrunner) and then sharing the connection with other people in the apartment. This computer i am using it right now is my sister laptop, it run on wireless pc card to connect to the router/modem in neigbors room. The speed may vary depend on the site, mostly for direct download i get 100-200 Kb/s or more, and if good condition can boost to 300 Kb/s, sadly it perform poorly in bittorrent and mirc.

For transportation we have a car, it's honda civic. Cant tell much about it, the color is silver, and all the other thingsare standard.
