2008 I got my own cell phone

I know it’s not that important but hey.  My parents always want me to take a cell phone when I go anywhere but I’ve always shared my mom’s cell phone. When sharing a phone, someone has the phone and someone doesn’t.<(What a profound statement)  So if my mother took the phone and I had to go somewhere, I was left with no other option than to go out in big world without a phone.  After having my (old) car stall in the middle of intersections, I’ve never felt safe without a phone. 

Not being one of those electronically knowledgeable people, I can only make calls, receive calls, and listen to messages.  For me a phone is a phone; the definition of a phone is:  A device for communicating sound, especially speech.

That was rather dull but I thought it time for another post.
