Cellphone is such an important gadget in our daily life. We use them to call, text, video chat, play games, post/check/stalk on social media and many more. A lot of people can't be separated with their phones. People play with their phones during dinner times, washroom times or even when they are driving, bad idea!
I can actually live without my phone. I don't need it with me 24/7 but it's good to have around me, just incase if someone is trying to look for me. I don't want people to get worried. Plus, I reply people pretty fast, so it's strange if I go missing for many hours. I actually forgot to bring my cellphone to work last Friday. At first I thought I'll be so bored without it. I wouldn't be able to message my friends and I can't post my picture on Instagram. However, I wasn't bored at all. I had more time to type my blog posts for the following week (including this one). I surfed around the net and kind of window shop a bit too. So it's actually not bad.
I would never touch my phone when I'm driving, it's too dangerous. I would only touch it if I was stuck in traffic and I'm rushing to work, just to let work know I'll be late. If everyone can put their phones away when they drive I think there will be less accidents out there. When I go out to eat, I hardly play with my phone but I realize my friends love doing that, I don't mind though. It's just kinda awkward how everyone has their phone out and I'm just sitting there looking at them until they are done. Even my brother plays with his phone during dinner time at home...
Hmm, I'm sure everyone in this world can live without a phone. I mean there wasn't such a thing N years ago and everyone seemed to live fine. People go out and see each other more often whereas now people just talk to each other through messaging or video chats. I'm not saying it's bad just letting people know we can live without one.
I wonder what it would be like if everyone in the world tuck their cellphones away for a week. Will this world turn into a disaster? Can you live without your phone?
Random moment, suddenly some of the lyric popped into my head. An old song, I like it.
william so - 不想独自快乐
"我一個人 沉溺孤單的氣氛
從不關心 誰人明白我心"
但我不想一個快樂"
Omg..I was just listening to the radio this morning on my way to work, and they talked about the exact same topic! They were saying how on transit, everyone's on the phone and no one would interact with each other anymore. Not even a "hello" or "where you heading to?"
ReplyDeleteIt's kinda sad..
LOL! I wrote this last week. It's the truth though. *sigh*
