Network provider---who bans students from using WiFi |
Sept.2 was the start of my school. There are quite
a few changes. The most disturbing thing is new students moving into my dorm
which will break the peace we now are having. On the other hand, the most annoying
thing, that I have been busy with, is the WiFi and the campus network of
ChinaNet. Ever since it’s changed to the form of webpage login and the “automatically
obtain an IP address” in the IPV4 setting the WiFi router doesn't work as it
did. The only way I could do with it is setting up in my laptop a hot spot that
shares my internet connection with other devices. It’s doable, but not really
convenient for me every time turning on the laptop for WiFi access.
Furthermore, I am always worried about the new students messing with the WiFi
router. So I’m really trying hard, looking information up online. I tried every possible suggestion online, but due to my
lack of knowledge of computer, I'm not getting anywhere so far. It’s extra difficult for me to get at the
internet things. At least now I know a bit about where to set up DHCP, getting the ipconfig/all command; gateway, subnet mask...(still have no idea what they are) (somebody help!)
It was a break between classes when I grabbed my
deskmate's book written by Mary Kay---she works in Mary Kay, learns from Mary
Kay, uses the products of Mary Kay---something called “how to become a
successful woman”. I found something that’s practically useful, and I think I’ll
try to put it into practice.
Write down six important things that you have to do
today. Tick out one when you finish it. Do the most difficult work, in a
successive order. This will make you work faster.
The other thing I read on the book is do two things
at a time. Like reading while waiting, replying emails on the bus home, making
appointment or answering phone calls while driving. That’s how effective people
use their time.
The last thing I read about---also what I've known
about---is getting someone to do something for you. Before I know this I've
always thought about this: why you should get someone to do small easy things
for you while you can just do it your own? That’s simply because I never deem
my time valuable. It's because I have too much time, or I have much free time,
or I’m not trying to do anything that is worth the time. Well, you never see a
CEO in a big company makes every appointment themselves. They have a secretary
to do it for him. They could use their time for something that’s worth more.
Someone has always told me that something that takes too much time isn't worth
his time; he could just do it in a simpler way or pay someone a bit to do it.
