Network - Wonder - Marble

You know, cell phone can only function as a phone if at least 3 conditions apply..
  1. Battery remains charged.
  2. Credits are filled up enough.
  3. Network is available.
Many things affect those three conditions, money (okay, savings may help), weather, willingness, partner to communicate with, activity, and LOCATION (distance and altitude). Since for the last 5 weeks and the next 1 week, I live on a place that meets the criteria DISTANCE times ALTITUDE. My third condition, Network, is like one drop of water in the middle of the MOON..
Lets start..GSM Network at Madigondo, Samigaluh (52 km from Jogja downtown, 625m above sea level).
AXIS
no signs of life.
STATUS: absolutely confirmed DEAD
(AXIS, GSM yang Baik --> I dont think so..)

TELKOMSELno signs of life.
STATUS: confirmed DEAD
(simPATI No Compromise No Problem --> non sense!)

INDOSAT (IM3 or Mentari)
some not discernible signs of life...
3G: Not palpable
GPRS: irregular, weak, adrenalin-needed state
Network signal: declining in no time
STATUS: suspected in COMMA STATE
(Sinyal kuat Indosat --> no comment!)

XL
3G: Loud and clear
GPRS: regular beats, within normal range
Network signal: rising and steady
STATUS: working NORMALLY, other conditions may apply.
(XL, jaringan luas --> proven here)

So, my suggestion..keep more than 1 GSM network SIMCARD in your wallet.
JUST IN CASE.

Man is a special being, and if left to himself, in an isolated condition, would be one of the weakest creatures; but associated with his kind, he works wonders. ~ Daniel Webster

Maybe, you, in any chance, wonder, what wonder that I've made in my remote mountain-peak basecamp. Okay, my friend Haris and I, decided to earth down, and played marbles.

yes, marbles (kelereng, Ind-red).
So then, that afternoon, after finishing our third K3M project, "Lomba Cerdas Cermat Ibu Dukuh Madigondo", we played the game..and since the Tribe Chief, mister Haris made the idea, he took the chance to apply his game rule, haha..it seemed different to what ive played years ago..


Standing, from the left: Udin, AdrianHasdi, Haris, Andra, Riki, Soleh.

No network, marbles work!

We played so tactically, till the sun set..
I won ONCE! Hurray..

Haris won TIMES! poor me..lucky him..

so, ive been ticked for so many times, as i lost..PARAHNYA, si HARIS nyentil jari-jariku dengan kekuatan terbesarnya!! The night followed, my fingers turned red and painful..

heu..

but, we made wonders!
hahaha...
