Ist story:
He gave me his used Motorola. I liked it very much, because during that particular “era”, the market trend was having flip type mini phone which the size smaller than a hand palm. That second hand Motorala still looked good and cute. I was ok even though it is a second hand. Even my mother said the ringtones were cute and catchy. After some time, this phone started to go hay wire. I could not dial out.. I told Papa-M about it. He said he will get me a “new” handphone
2nd story:
So the “new” handphone that Papa-M said he wanted to get for me was his used Nokia. Because he bought one of the latest model of Nokia (at that time) , he decided to give me his second hand Nokia. Well, I am not a choosy person, as long as I have a free handphone, I am fine with it. Moreover, the second hand Nokia was a new model too during that time. Then again,the phone also had some problem (and I also dono). I managed to used for some years before it really die off. I told Papa-M again, he said he will give me a “new” phone
3rd story:

Again, the “new” phone he intended to give me is another used phone. This time, an I-phone. I was surprised he would get me an I-phone , no doubt also his second hand, but I still do not mind. As long as I have a phone, I am fine. But for this time, the I-phone "memang cacat" untll I cannot tolerate. Sometimes I cannot dial, sometimes I cannot sms!. I complained to him many many times. I told him, I want to get a real brand new mobile set. He again told me, he will buy one for me. He did bring me to a handphone shop, asked me to choose the model I wanted. But then he said, he would exchange his existing I-phone with my new one.. ARRRHHHGGG! I could not made up my mind in the shop, end of the day, I did not buy a phone.
4th story:
Last week , Papa-M came back home from work. Bb-G and me were in the bedroom “lepak-ing”. He suddenly came into the room and tossed a device to me. It was a handphone! And this time, it is a brand new set!
For the FIRRRSSST time, he finally present me with a new mobile set. Well, Papa-M still "berniat" want to exchange his phone with my new one, but NO WAY man!


wah.. the new phone very canggih lei... NICE! maybe let Papa-M play for a week or two?
