With a new speed
After some starter hiccups when switching to a new service provider, the Internet at my dad’s place is now working 4 times faster, when we are paying less than we did before.
Hopefully, I will switch to another service provider at my house too. I will be choosing an even higher speed there, and we will only be paying about 10 € each month (for a speed of 10Mb/s), while now we are paying about 30 € (for a speed of 1Mb/s).
In a year, we will save about 240 €, which is half the price of my trip to London this spring, so I can say I’m pretty happy with my decision.
With a brand new Internet connection, I think it’s also time to finally buy a new domain (maybe I can use part of the money we will save) and move this blog to my own server, as well as create a nice enough design, so I’ll practice my web designing skills, after I just left them lying there for almost a year. Better go and look for some inspiration!

Yay for faster and inexpensive internet! I’m bad at dealing with slow connections…
I can’t wait to see what you come up with!

*is jealous of your internet’s speed*
Erm, anyway, I wanted to say you can delete Quark from your links, as I’ll probably be removing it soon. I just can’t seem to stick with a website these days. :/
