Before I lack knowledge when it comes to cell
phones, the only phone I had was a t y . It was fun pretending to be talking to
someone on the other line. I received my first cell phone when I was in grade 5
since my parents have work and I had to stay at home. I remember it was Nokia,
it was not touch screen and the graphics was old. But I was quite happy since I
get to experience to have a phone. Well the only thing that interests me was
the games, “Impact”. I never knew what was the cell phone was
for or what is it used for. I didn't know the functions or the controls. All I
did was explored and went with my guts. And also I know that when my mom calls
just answer; even though it took me time to know what to press. It became
really frustrating to hear it ring every now especially when you're busy then
suddenly it rings. Arrgh!! Really frustrating. Also I kept forgetting and misplacing the phone that my mom kept
scolding on why I didn't answer the phone. That's why I don't want to have a
phone in the first place. :3
When time passed by, cell phones became a trend. My
classmates would go around asking others for their phone numbers. A classmate
even asked for mine but at that time I didn’t know what a phone number was.
Then I noticed an object in her hand, it was a phone, although it was also it
was a little different from mine. It was also Nokia but it was narrower and it
was colorful than mine. I found it interesting because it was different,
interesting and eye catching. And the games were interesting and fun. The graphics
was a spot on that I can't stop myself from playing it. But still I didn't like
having a phone since you have to carry it around with you. And you have to
always keep it on and normal. (sigh)
Then later on, more discoveries happened when I
reach the 6th grade. I
found out that you can listen to music using your phone. You can also call
other people. I even memorized my number. Ha! Finally. Then I found out that
their phones have a camera on it. And some are wider, like the phone,
“Blueberry”. I didn’t even know that you can name a phone from a fruit. Such an
amazing discovery I made indeed. There were actually phones that are different
from each other. Amazing!
Then as I continue to know about phones
and their functions, I became engrossed in having it with me everywhere I go.
Especially when me and my best friend became text buddies, the phone became a
necessary device to keep in touch with each other. That's why to me it feels
natural to have it with me and I would be devastated when I lose or misplace
it. It also became a habit to check my phone whether I messages or miscalls. So
no matter how far apart we may be we can easily keep in touch thanks to my
buddy, phone. :D The only problem was that I had to spend money on load. Why
can’t load be free?
