A Phone to Super-Phone. And Now, Finally a Mega-Phone - Part One.
February was the hottest month ever here in Singapore. Now it's already March. How you guys spent your time for the whole week? Revision? Entertainment? Family? Doesn't matter actually. Im here to blog about what happened so far. To be clear, my school didn't acknowledge the March holiday. You guys probably enjoyed it, some may not. Basically I went to school as per normal from 9 a.m to 1 p.m. Let me share to what happened in the one week glorious holidays.
But not so fast...
In 2008, I got a new S.E K660i after my mono-ringtone phone, a black and white with 'Snake' in it. I was so elated I finally got camera-phone. It's really nice for 2007 - 2008 phone. Unfortunately, that phone last only 6 months. I lost it. I was totally upset, but it can't be undo. So I get back to my colourless display phone and play 'Snake'.
On the 7th week of 2010, which is 15th February. I got to know that my phone is ready to re-contract. This really opened up my eyes time is just really fast. Really. It is already 2 years. So at the first place, I find for a $0 plan online. I can't get any 0 bucks super-phone for my pathetic student plan. So I just wait for the next batch of promotions offered by SingTel.
Until the 2nd week of March. There's this particular phone, W995. It cost $248 for my plan. Ugh, no hope. There's only W595 and some other phone that Im not interested in. Since I was so eager to get a super-phone one more time after what happened in 2008. I checked online every single day and right after the day I checked the $248 phone. The price rapidly decrease to $88. I was extremely surprised and speechless; it is really a miracle because my pathetic student plan didn't offer such mega-phones.
I received a message from SingTel indicating that they actually deliver it to me. Oh, how excited and happy I am. Still, people say my face doesn't look like Im happy. Im not a stone! It is just the way I am, I think it is more like I really appreciate when miracles actually do happened until I don't know how to react. It's like hip-hip HOORAY inside you know.
It says "... your phone will be delivered on the 15th March... 2 p.m to 6 p.m... prepare the documents and cash upon..."
I rushed home and I actually ran from the lift to my gate. I washed up. Smiling like a camel brushing its teeth; Oh, by the way, did you know camel has the worst breath? hahaha! terase oi. takpelah.
*knocks* The post-makcik mesti dah bertahon-tahon kerje macam gini. kuat gile oi die ketok.
Makcik: Zaleha ade? (my mom)
Me: Takde, tapi anak die ade. (tengah tak sabar ni, I saw her carrying a 'hello' bag)
Makcik: Oh okay, so ade tak duit nyer?
Me: Ade-ade jap.
Confident taik. I really thought I have the money in hand. I ran to my room; #$%&! Where the heck?!
mane mane mane mane?! eh, takkan takde!!??
