Did you know..

.. that when you call someone, even if that someone hangs up and YOU dont, the person can pick up the phone 2 hours later and YOu would still be on the line cos its STILL connected ? Of course, you'd be footing for the bill since you called.

SO anyway, if you did know, well GOOD FOR YOU because our dear Alexander Yap didnt know this. SO the other day, upon retuning his call on the house phone, alex said he couldnt really hear me using the particular phone and asked me to call back 5 seconds later while he runs up to the other phone. So i said, yeah okay just hang up and pick up the other phone. Kesedihannya, my voice was too soft and he only heard the "hang up " part of the sentence la.. [actually, he heard the rest but it sounded like junk]. Then he hung up. And so i waited la. waited.. waited.. WHeN is this fella going to pick up the other phone? Eh, how long does it take la for him to run upstairs? Hmm.. maybe he kena intercepted by parents? Then suddenly i had this vision of alex sitting by the phone, just WAITING for it to ring so he can pick it up.

Alamak.. that fella.

SO, i called back . And true enough before it even completed one ring, Alex dengan enthusiastic-nyer greets " He~El-Loo? "

" .. . you were waiting for the phone to ring before you picked it up right? "

" HeEn-NaaA , why take you so long to call back wann? "

" eh, Hello, i was still on the line la. All you had to do was PICK UP the phone!"

" HUh?! really? got such thing ar?! "

And then on persuasion, Alex hung up and picked up the phone again. And, to hardly any surprise [except his], i was still on the line! Dont we learn new things everyday ;) Yay~!
