I finally got myself a cell phone. Though I can’t help but think I didn’t need it — yet my parents claim I do.
Why do I feel this? I’m not an ‘on the go’ person. What convinced me, yet the wrong way, was what happened last night. I try to contact ProgramFiles to speak to him through Steam. Said he was on his iPod Touch.
I wonder if I could use a cell phone as a second computer after that, just incase my computer is at the shop, or if I’m banned, as a 2nd account like Fishy.
I should had gotten an iPod Touch instead…
But when I went up there, I got nervous. Yet I still am. I’m scared that this phone is going to change my life. Make me wanna start texting, and browsing the web through it, putting a hell of a bill in my checking account.
I’m afraid I’m going to get into something I may not even need, and it’ll be too late to get out of it. Such as signing up for ‘free’ ringtones and ending up paying out the ass for them, and having to send a text to stop it before I overdraft.
Still, this phone isn’t perfect. What pisses me off is I didn’t get a fucking USB cable that I could upload ringtones, wallpapers, and other shit from my computer. I spent $60 on this phone and they couldn’t give me a god damn USB cable! D:
I’m going to have to go to Amazon.com and buy one.
Another thing that ticks me off is Voicemail. I was expecting to go into my phone and be able to listen for any messages that I’ve missed when my phone is off. Instead I have to hit *86, then enter my password, then wait for it to play any voicemail left over.
Still, I still ask myself, why did I get this thing? My parents have a cell phone. If the power went out in the house, we could use that. Is it because my mother refuses to learn how to use their cell phone?
A cell phone in my hands just doesn’t feel right. I don’t have a job.. hell, I rarely leave this house, so why do I need to remain in contact with anyone? I guess I’ll just use it for small things. As I said, of taking my computer up to the shop, going to the dentist or doctor and calling to need a ride back home.
Not to mention, Fishy and Angry can call me whenever they want too.
Since it’s mine, I’m going to make it mine. As soon as I get my hands on a USB cable, I found a place with Dragon wallpaper for cell phones. 🙂
Yet I still can’t help but think that getting a cell phone that I can customize was one of the worst things I’ve done in my life.
Looking around on these “free” sites for ringtones, there’s a chance I could get a virus in my computer.
The reason I feel this is I just can’t leave well enough alone. I won’t just settle with what I have, and know the real “reason” I got this phone. We rarely get calls on our normal landline phone, and I have very little in friends/people to call.
