Handphone

Yesterday I bought a new handphone during a road show in a shopping mall in KL. When I reached Bangi the person who sold me the phone called me to say that she had inserted the wrong sim card and that I had to go back to the shopping mall to get it replaced, failure to do which I will not be able to convert my pre-paid line to a post-paid one. Which was something that I had to do (the conversion) to be able to register for the data plan. But since I was already at work so I told the person to courier me the new sim card.

Today I received the new sim card. But now the problem is that it is not the micro sim type that would fit into the phone. It is too large. So in short, the sim card that fits snugly in my new handphone now is not the right one to use and the new one that I had just received to replace the current one does not fit at all but is supposed to be the right one.

It cannot get any dumber than that.

So tomorrow I guess I need to go to the nearest telecommunications centre to get this mix-up fixed. And hopefully I might be able to use my handphone at last.

As I am typing this, I may seem calm and collected. There is even a little smile on my face. But take off this mask I have and wipe off this fake smile and you will see a highly anger-crazed woman screaming ''PUTAIN DE BORDEL DE MERDE!!'' on top of her lungs.

OK. Putting my fake mask back on. Peace.

Tidur

Early this morning I was rudely awakened by the ringing of my handphone.

a) I felt very annoyed with myself for not putting it on silent mode.
b) I was at the same time worried because getting calls at odd hours usually means bad news.

-Hello?
-Aaa. Jiudy? Jiudy aa?
-Wrong number.
-Aiyah. Long numbher ah?
-Ye.
-Yiu bukan Jiudy aa?
-Bukaaaaan.
-Ok ok soli aa. Sudta salah tekan.
-OK.
-Eh eh tadi lu tido ka?
-Taaaaak...wa tengah lari setempat wo..
-Haahahaha lu manyak kelaka aa...ini jam manyak awal pagi pun lu boleh cakap itu macam...hahah-

Click. I switched off my handphone. The Apek was still laughing when I cut him off.

Then I went back to sleep, hoping to meet this Apek in my dreams, so that I could punch him in the face for disrupting my precious sleep.

Judy. Takde nama lain ke. Bagi la aku nama yang moden sikit. Sherrilee ke. Tinkerbell ke.

Jangan

Pagi tadi dalam perjalanan ke tempat kerja saya singgah sebentar di stesen minyak yang terletak bersebelahan dengan hotel Mint (yang sebenarnya sudah bertukar nama tapi saya tidak ingat nama barunya)

Kedatangan saya telah disambut oleh seorang atendan pam yang sugguh ceria. Dia tersenyum dan bertanya khabar dan bersedia menolong saya meleret kad ke dalam mesin pam minyak dan mengisikan petrol ke dalam tangki kereta saya.

Beberapa ketika kemudian telefon bimbit saya yang terletak di atas dashboard kereta saya berbunyi. Saya masuk ke dalam kereta untuk menyimpan telefon.

-Kakkk! Jangan kak. Bahaya. Nanti meletup!
Saya pun meletakkan telefon bimbit saya kembali ke dalam beg tangan. Memang itulah pun apa yang saya hendak lakukan.

Beberapa saat selepas itu saya mendengar satu bunyi letupan yang sungguh berdesibel tinggi.
-PROOOTTTT!!

Saya pandang ke arah budak itu. Dia tersengih.
-Kau kentut ye? Kuatnya sampai ke Bangi tau orang semua boleh dengar!
-Sebab itulah saya cakap jangan jawab telepon akak tu. Nanti lagi cepat meletup tangki ni. Terlebih gas!

Saya pun terfikir: Budak ni dulu belajar kat MFI ke? Loyar buruk semacam je dengan aku? :))
