| Ah, I do all sorts of stuff at work; HTML programming, a tiny bit of PHP, email newsletters, and most recently, video editing with expensive Adobe programs.
But I have those speeds right here at home |

Yeah, there is not much use at this point ... everything downloads instantly or nearly instantly. But I know it can go faster with the proper ethernet card ... since a friend did post this recently, connecting from his work somewhere in campus:  |

| I don't even know what I would do with that kind of internet speed. The only real thing I might use it for is uploading videos when I have some to upload, but I don't have videos to upload in the first place. Downloading is nothing that I can't just wait out, so there's not much incentive there. I'm fine with my current internet speed.
Though I feel like I will start complaining about my internet speed in a short time in the future. |

| Well, today it wasn't me who started complaining about our internet speed, it was my brother. Which was hilarious since I only mentioned it here and never said anything out loud.
Well right now my internet speed is much slower than what has been shown here recently: 
It's definitely not "instant" loading.
The times I hate the internet is when I try to view a page and one of the ads fails to load for some reason, causing the rest of the page to not show up until the ad is skipped or if it finally loads. Those times are few and ads don't bother me so much anyways, so I don't really use any ad blockers. There may be an option or function to stop the browser from attempting to load the ad and continue with the page, but I haven't looked for such a thing. |

| Haha, I complain when my pages don't load instantly now ... I've been completely spoiled. But I should get used to subpar speeds for when I go to China.
In other news, I am buying a keyboard tomorrow (possibly) ... this will be great. I've always wanted to play my own music. |

| Nice! I have my own keyboard as well, but unfortunately, it is still at my parent's house and I haven't been able to bring it over to where I live yet. I also plan on getting better at music, but I haven't been able to concentrate enough to do so. I even plan on getting a book to learn about music theory, I just need to find some good ones.
Speaking of books, I need to figure out what happened to the book that I was supposed to get a week ago. I still don't have it.  |

| My keyboard just got here! Nice
I learned how to play the tetris song on it ... haha but now I should start learning how to read sheet music, and practice a lot! This is exciting! |
