I’d never missed the extravaganza parodyshow on TV. Then I missed out on it when my office in jakarta stationed me in ende. There was no TV in the house where I stayed. I really missed watching my favorite show. One day, a friend told me that a local wartel, a small shop where you can make a paid phone call, own a TV set. The next time Extravaganza was scheduled to be on air, I was in the wartel, busy making local phone calls to several acquaintances. After making the calls, I walked out of the phone booth and sat patiently in front of the TV set hung next to cashier.
Unfortunatly, the TV wasn’t tuned to the TV station that aired Extravaganza. The cashier was intently watching a gossip show. I decided to wait for a few minutes before asking her to change the program .five, ten...fifteen minutes passed. “do you want to make another phona call?” her question really caurht me off-guard and made me stutter.”Nnno, I want to watch Extravaganza,” I answered without thinking. “Oh, that’s why you’ve been sitting there for so long. But sorry, we can’t receive the TV station that airs the show here,” she said sympathetically. Embarrasment and disappointment hit me hard as I walked out of the wartel
