PRECIOUS SECONDS (LITERALLY)

i know that i've mostly been very negative when i talk about this country. well, maybe there are times when i like to over-dramatise things. but mostly it's because there isn't a lot of positive things to say about my life in this country at the moment (i think this statement falls into that "over-dramatising" that i was referring to earlier...hehehe). anyway, this time around, i'm gonna be very impartial and unbiased about what i'm going to write. in fact, i'm just going to show you guys something to look at and write a very neutral and objective caption below it. so here goes:

Exhibit A
excerpt of aiskrempotong's m*xis phone bill (statement date : 24/11/06)

ok, scrap that idea about being impartial. i just have to bitch about this. this is how much i need to pay to call home - damn freakin' expensive ok?!!!!! while the rest of the world community gets to enjoy technology advancement such as VoIP, we, in this country are unfortunately not that priviledged. oh, and of course, being the sole telco provider in this country, etis(ial)-at can pretty much charge whatever they want. i personally think that calling someone from THE MOON shouldn't be this expensive. but hey, this is not the moon. this is even better than the moon. this is d*bai. where all the action is. where dreams come true.

well, not MY dream. (told you i'm dramatic)
