A week without gadget

How many people here can live a day without their phones.
Be it Contacting people, surfing social medias, taking pictures, reading Emails or even listening to songs using their phones?
I've totally gone through a week without gadgets and True enough I suffered.

Disclaimer, I had only phone that can only call and text, as my phone is down for a week of servicing.

I FEEL THE PAIN, I FEEL THE ADDICTION, I FEEL THE URGE, I FEEL THE DISCOMFORT, I FEEL THE EMPTINESS, LAST OF ALL IS I FEEL THE DISCONNECTION, BEING ISOLATED TO THE WORLD.

I asked myself why do I feel this way. You see, a lot of you don't realize but you're using your phones so much that even at home, you rarely use the computer/laptops.
Well, unless frequently login to Tumblr, Youtube, Blogs etc...
Which will allows you to see images or videos much bigger and comfortable usage. 

But other than that, NO.
From my Opinion, MY OPINION.
80% of the human race now using phone so much, that without it they feel they do not have any "Personal Time".
Do you think that so?
Personal time, use to be a time for yourself ONLY. But guess what? Now "Personal Time" means, using phone interacting with friends, social media, listening to songs, searching/stalking Hot models or even Eye candy in social media (DON'T LIE, YES YOU STALK LIKE SOME PERVERT CAVE STALKER, just didn't really got Caught by the World.)

Back to the topic, my Note2 was down (mysteriously, my phone just could not switched on, and if it switched on, it stuck to the welcoming page)
Which.... I try not to make a fuss by repairing it. I am changing phone soon as my 2 year plan is almost up.

That half a day, in school I could not contact anyone even my parents, so luckily for social media, I posted up on my Facebook / Twitter that My phone died on me, if they wanted to contact me contact through social media till (The time I end school, as I wun be able to use the laptop).

So luckily for skype (HELLO MY FRIEND) , is there to make sure CLOSE friends of mine I am still able to contact through chats, and of course my school communicator.

I use my friend's phone to contact MAMA Quah, and also to inform those people whom are texting me (midway).

At night, I got myself a spare phone at home, which is the S4.
This don't stop there...

Last monday morning, before I even leave the house, I dropped my phone (As usual I don't think anything will happen to a samsung phone as they Rarely cracks due to my experiences) But this time the LED screen inside cracked, basically I can receive messages, but my screen is BLACK OUT.

Technically, again I went out without my gadget, skinny is with me the whole day, so I use his phone to login to another twitter account (which is mine) to personalize message my BBG Liyan, as I was texting her half way.. Luck thing is she connects her DATA/WIFI once in awhile to check (busy woman).

I send my phone for servicing, I got another spare phone from my mum (only got Facebook, memory all Full to even download whatsapp)

OHMYGAWD, Whatsapp is a VERY IMPORTANT application, its like Text messages but EVEN MORE COOL, as its free no matter how many videos or images you send.
Best?
GROUPCHAT (!!!)

I've tons of group chat, technically I am the Voice/finance in RPMT, I need to interact with the leaders and juniors.
This is just great, my Juniors came to ask me for help but MY WHATSAPP IS DOWN.
This is just great.

I am going to be my friend's bridesmaid 18days later and I'm suppose to meet them to get bridesmaid dresses / games planned.
I need Whatsapp!

Important people that contacts me often like, VDguardians, Boey clan, Elfin, WK, Mich, Jo, Shelley Ice, Josie, and a whole bunch of peeeeps could not get through me in whatsapp..

I am insane ...


But, I just decided to head out to run my errands, with the important people in my life, like... Skinny and my mum.

I was a little bored, but luckily I've Great companies, you know people whom can actually TALK and have a REAL non boring CONVERSATION with you?
YUP, they're the people.

Skinny basically makes everything well for me, making me sure I satisfy my damn cravings and stuffs. Settling MAMA Quah's cravings too (But faith did not let it happen ;D whatever, its mine than..)

***

Fast forward... To main topics again..
I am a person EVERY Night I end my night with skype call.

It is just a hassle that I could not use my phone to skype as my laptop (for whatever weird reasons just wouldn't be able to hear well, but my phone is clear sharp.)

So I've to use my house phone to call or rather ask people to call my hp :(

***

Without able to listen to any music, thank goodness for this spare phone previously download Youtube in it.
So I search songs and played it on my way out travelling, thank god skinny is there with me all the way, coming over to fetch me or find me, or rather meet me outside every day ever since my hp is Down.

***

I don't know but being unable to get through social media is really a breakdown at the same time, chilling.
I don't have to check every 15mins for whatsapp, or rather people contacting me all the time, or "like" "comments" my statues or pictures.

skinny wishes I don't have phone forever, cos when I got my phone after being serviced. I mainly just Glue to my phone the entire night to reply Whatsapp or see Social medias stuffs ;D

MY LIFE IS COMPLETE.

But nonetheless, everyone of you should try at least 1 day without your phone and just enjoy spending time with people who mean the world to you =)
