Hari itu di kelas 1 A sedang dimulai pelajaran berhitung. Ibu guru pun bertanya kepada muridnya.
Guru: Berapa hasil 10 dibagi 2?
Murid: 8
Guru: Kok bisa?
Murid: Kalau ibu punya sepuluh apel, lalu dua apel ibu bagikan ke teman ibu, hasilnya delapan kan?
Ada seorang pria sedang putus asa, hanya berdiam diri di bar selama satu setengah jam cuma memandangi minumannya.
Seorang pengemudi truk langsung datang dan meneguk minuman hingga habis isi gelas itu. Si pria pemilik minuman langsung menangis.
“Hei...jangan nangis begitu, dong!” seru si pengemudi truk.
“Aku cuma bercanda saja kok tadi. Aku belikan minuman lagi, deh!” hibur pengemudi truk.
“Nggak, nggak usah. Hari ini merupakan hari terburuk dalam hidupku. Pertama, aku telat ke kantor. Bosku marah besar dan aku dipecat. Ketika mau pulang, ternyata mobilku dicuri orang. Ketika naik taksi, ternyata dompet dan kartu kredit aku ketinggalan di dalamnya. Sampai rumah, istriku tidur dengan tukang kebun. Aku meninggalkan rumah dan datang ke bar ini. Dan ketika aku berpikir untuk mengakhiri hidupku, kau muncul dan meminum semua minuman beracun milikku.”
Seorang ibu menyuruh anaknya yang baru berusia 7 tahun, naik bis jurusan Surabaya-Denpasar. Ibu tersebut berpesan kepada pak supir bus.
"Pak, titip anak saya ya? Nanti kalau sampai di Banyuwangi, tolong kasih tau anak saya." kata sang ibu.
Sepanjang perjalanan, si anak ini cerewet sekali. Sebentar-sebentar bertanya pada penumpang,
"Sudah sampai Banyuwangi belum?" tanya si anak tersebut kepada para penumpang.
Hari mulai malam dan anak itu masih terus bertanya-tanya dan salah satu penumpang menanggapi anak tersebut.
"Belum, nanti kalau sudah sampai dibangunin deh! Tidur aja!" kata salah satu penumpang bus.
Tapi si anak tidak mau diam, dia maju ke depan dan bertanya pada supir untuk kesekian kalinya.
"Pak, sudah sampai Banyuwangi belum?"
Pak Supir yang sudah lelah dengan pertanyaan itu menjawab," Belum! Tidur aja deh! Nanti kalo sampai Banyuwangi pasti dibangunin!"
Kali ini, si anak tidak bertanya lagi, ia tertidur pulas sekali. Karena suara si anak tidak terdengar lagi, semua orang di dalam bis lupa pada si anak, sehingga ketika melewati Banyuwangi, tidak ada yang membangunkannya.
Bahkan sampai menyeberangi selat Bali dan sudah mendarat di Ketapang,Bali, si anak tertidur dan tidak bangun-bangun. Kemudian si supir baru sadar bahwa ia lupa membangunkan si anak.
Lalu ia bertanya pada para penumpang,
"Bapak-ibu, gimana nih, kita antar balik gak anak ini?"
Para penumpang pun merasa bersalah karena ikut melupakan si anak dan setuju mengantar si anak kembali ke Banyuwangi.
Maka kembalilah rombongan bis itu menyeberangi Selat Bali dan mengantar si anak ke Banyuwangi. Sesampai di Banyuwangi, si anak dibangunkan.
"Nak! Sudah sampai Banyuwangi! Ayo bangun!" kata si supir.
Si anak bangun dan berkata," O.... sudah sampai yah !" Lalu membuka tasnya dan mengeluarkan kotak makanannya. Seluruh penumpang bingung.
"Bukannya kamu mau turun di Banyuwangi?" tanya si supir kebingungan.
"Nggak kok, saya ini mau ke Denpasar ngunjungin nenek. kata mama, kalau sudah sampai Banyuwangi, saya boleh makan nasi kotaknya!"
Penumpang dan sopir : Arrrgggh.....(dengan muka cemberut sambil melirik anak itu)

About the game:
USA as a world power? In E-Sim it is possible!
In E-Sim we have a huge, living world, which is a mirror copy of the Earth. Well, maybe not completely mirrored, because the balance of power in this virtual world looks a bit different than in real life. In E-Sim, USA does not have to be a world superpower, It can be efficiently managed as a much smaller country that has entrepreneurial citizens that support it's foundation. Everything depends on the players themselves and how they decide to shape the political map of the game.
Work for the good of your country and see it rise to an empire.
Activities in this game are divided into several modules. First is the economy as a citizen in a country of your choice you must work to earn money, which you will get to spend for example, on food or purchase of weapons which are critical for your progress as a fighter. You will work in either private companies which are owned by players or government companies which are owned by the state. After progressing in the game you will finally get the opportunity to set up your own business and hire other players. If it prospers, we can even change it into a joint-stock company and enter the stock market and get even more money in this way.
In E-Sim, international wars are nothing out of the ordinary.
Become an influential politician.
The second module is a politics. Just like in real life politics in E-Sim are an extremely powerful tool that can be used for your own purposes. From time to time there are elections in the game in which you will not only vote, but also have the ability to run for the head of the party you're in. You can also apply for congress, where once elected you will be given the right to vote on laws proposed by your fellow congress members or your president and propose laws yourself. Voting on laws is important for your country as it can shape the lives of those around you. You can also try to become the head of a given party, and even take part in presidential elections and decide on the shape of the foreign policy of a given state (for example, who to declare war on). Career in politics is obviously not easy and in order to succeed in it, you have to have a good plan and compete for the votes of voters.
You can go bankrupt or become a rich man while playing the stock market.
The international war.
The last and probably the most important module is military. In E-Sim, countries are constantly fighting each other for control over territories which in return grant them access to more valuable raw materials. For this purpose, they form alliances, they fight international wars, but they also have to deal with, for example, uprisings in conquered countries or civil wars, which may explode on their territory. You can also take part in these clashes, although you are also given the opportunity to lead a life as a pacifist who focuses on other activities in the game (for example, running a successful newspaper or selling products).
At the auction you can sell or buy your dream inventory.
E-Sim is a unique browser game. It's creators ensured realistic representation of the mechanisms present in the real world and gave all power to the players who shape the image of the virtual Earth according to their own. So come and join them and help your country achieve its full potential.
Invest, produce and sell - be an entrepreneur in E-Sim.
Take part in numerous events for the E-Sim community.
