Broken Surfboard

Easy boy. It’s not Mr. Ping’s fault. I think he’s the Chinese delivery man who delivers my dimsum. Wha.. oh.. you’re not the dimsum guy? (Mr. Ping shakes his head.) Ah so you tell me tell me that there’s no internet connection? (Mr. Ping nods his head.)
Lately, I’ve been constantly getting these whenever I ping the internet to check for connection. I’ve been very patient for the past few days about this but somehow it starts to sink in. Digitel has been very eager to clarify their technical errors. It was even the maintenance team who rings my telephone regularly to explain that they are currently expanding their system to supply smoother connections to the surfers of this province. Thank you, amigo.
Great effort considering that we pay for just less than a thousand bucks a month. I mean I can download stuff at a rate of around 60kb per second at that cheap price at the comfort of my own third-world-country home but this upkeep somehow deprives me of the things that I’m supposed to do online at a certain schedule. The phrases up there start to bug me off big time.
Please Mr. Digitel, fix my surfboard as soon as possible. I don’t want to just stare at those big waves and the hot summer sunshine. And my iShuffle demands new beats. He’s just a gig so he can’t store that much tracks. Sorry for his ill temper.
