a serious lack of mobile phones

my mum has gone back to indonesia for a little family gathering, celebrations & festivities ... which i have not been fortunate enough to attend (due to serious lack of funds + unable to afford to take days off work)

so when my mummy heads off overseas... she decides she needs to take her mobile phone (the crap motorola she lent me) back to indonesia with her. grrr... sigh...

because mummy dearest could not possibly live in indonesia without being contactable. her crap motorola is the only phone she has that is not networked locked - and able to roam overseas.

and so here i am totally mobile phone less and completely uncontactable! it is quite liberating - but also worrying because i cant really run a "tutor" business *cough cough* or be a relied teacher when i am not contactable!

and so here i am in this horrible position of "needing" to buy a mobile phone - when i dont really want to, especially when my contract finishes next Jan 08, and i am entitled to a new phone then. no i dont want a "new" contract, i dont want to "pay" for another phone - all i want is a freebie + get on with my life.... without having to pay a cent.

so here is my plea
any mobile phone companies, business entrepreneurs or totally loaded people - please kindly donate a nice newish sony ericsson mobile phone my way :o). i will shamelessly promote your products/services on my very small blog readership. i will also shamelessly promote and drop subliminal messages into class lessons across all grades that i teach. ** Remember relationship marketing - you start them young & small ** i was once a marketing student - i know what i am doing. :o)

if all else fails - i will beg
Please PUH LEEEESEEEE pretty pleasseeee donate money, cash or mobile phone to miss clio. if you want to donate by paypal - please forward you payments to yata@iinet.net.au. (my paypal account got cancelled - damn paypal assholes)
if you want to donate a phone - please contact me via comments + messages - we can arrange for stuff *wink wink*

** and just for your information ~ Sony ericsson preferred ~ nokia is ok - but i wont accept the rest**
