Cellphones, useful even to make a call.


Cellphones. How much time can we stay away from a cellphone these days? We use our cellphones to set our alarms, to write down our to-do lists, to take pictures, to record videos and sometimes, even to make a call or send a text message (haha). I’ve heard some stories from my grandfather in which he tells about how people “survived” thirty years ago without a cellphone.  They had to organize all their meetings several hours before the time by the phone and they were supposed to be punctual as they were not able to let their friends or bosses know they were arriving late. Nowadays, it’s hard to believe that someone could have organized his/her entire life without a cellphone’s help.
At the beginning, the cellphone was a brick look-like device that was used only to make calls and send text messages. From a one colored-screen technology the cellphone went to full colored screens. Nowadays, cellphones even count with 3D technology so we can watch TV or movies in our cellphones! These devices are an important part of our lives during these days. It is very common to see 10-yearls old kids carrying a cellphone on the streets, calling their friends, playing video games and so on so FORT. We cannot imagine one day without our beloved cellphone.
Cellphones are very useful and, at the same time, very fun to use. But, we should be more aware of the real use of these devices. Sometimes, it becomes more important to be able to watch TV in a cellphone than to have good signal in order to make calls. Technology is consuming us, and we are doing nothing but texting how fun it is to be consumed.
