Eh have you heard? The Maslow Hierarchy of Needs got a new layer leh – it’s called WIFI.
(Picture credit: GOOGLE)
Seriously, we all NEED wifi these days. It’s no longer a Want. Just a couple of months ago, when I was doing up this list of places you could get sh*t done here, I thought we only needed wifi if we needed to study or get some work done at a cafe. BUT NO. Now with the rising usage of SNAPCHAT and Instagram, compounded with the shrinking of data plans by our exploitative mobile carriers, WE NEED WIFI EVERYWHERE. Especially at a cafe because must snapchat to show off to friends.
Here’s a couple of places I’ve been to with Wifi. While I know that there are many more, and it’s impossible to cover every one, I think this would help you guys and myself some way or other. Yeah, and I’ve seen lists like this going around, just that they only cover like 5 places, and I get really disappointed at the end of it. Like oh that’s all only ah? Sian. So hopefully this would render more help!
I don’t really know how to facilitate this list, umm.. Perhaps I’ll group those in the same area by MRT STATIONS, IF POSSIBLE. I shall start off by covering the areas that are clad with cafes FIRST, i.e. Jalan besar, Upper Thomson, Outram Park or the most common places people go, i.e. town, then I’ll try to cover the more general places. Haha!
