No phone since 2004

Most people who know me are quite puzzled why I don’t own a phone. These days cellphones have become a necessity like it’s something we can’t live without. So, maybe that’s the reason why they are intrigued that I don’t want to buy one for my self. Even the fish ball vendors and Manong Sorbetero have Nokia 5110. Yeah, I know it’s already phased out but at least they own a phone, unlike me.

Please don’t get me wrong, I mean they’re probably earning more than I do. What I’m just trying to say is that office girls like me need cellphones more than they do, right? I don’t know but I’m literally clueless about phone systems or cellphone brands or telephone companies, etc. I’ve been out of reach since 2004. The first cellphone that I got was a Nokia 3310 from my Dad, his gift for my 18th birthday. Unfortunately, my evil relative borrowed it, I didn’t want to lend it but I was too shy or polite to say no. The following morning, he just said he lost it.

Now, I have a china phone. It’s an imitation of Nokia E71 or E72. I think china phones are adorable :) It’s complete with TV, radio, email, Mp4, wifi, camera, video, etc. All features included in a very low price of 2,500 pesos. Brand new!

    i didn’t have a phone too for the longest time, but when we took a two-week vacation last month (which meant i had no access to chikka. LOL), i was forced to use a mobile again. i still have it, but rarely use it anymore. my load always expires, in fact. tee hee.

    sorry i haven’t been visiting a lot. i rarely have time to blog hop anymore :(
