I need a phone.Okay,I might have categorize it as a NEED but actually it's a WANT in the world of practical people.I'm an old fashioned woman with attachment issues so gadgets don't usually thrill me.I don't even have any clue of unit differences.I don't know the specs of a phone.I'm always one hell of a dumb idiot when it comes to gadgets.When I asked friends what phone they recommend,they would tell me to check the specs and I was like WHAT?! I don't know what it means. I tried my best to understand.I really tried but I can't make any sense of it. What is megapixel? What is quad core?What is RAM ?What is 802.11 b/ g/ n ?What is 540x960 pixels ? The list goes on and on. One thing I'm certain about is they are combination of numbers and alphabets. Thanks google! Thanks for making it extremely harder for me! Look,I'm just a cave woman who just got out really needing a phone.So far,in my history of owning a phone,I've owned the cheapest ones and I'm only familiar with Nokia and Sony Ericson.Well,my first phone ever was MOTOROLA.The one with the devil's horn.I can't remember but it was gigantic.I sometimes use it as a hammer.Sometimes I use it to kill a cockroach ,bugs and flies in my room.It was really very handy you see.Those were the old days. I haven't tried any of the HED phones so far and this year I'm thinking of getting one.And here we go again,I'm trying to pretend I understand stuff just so I don't look ignorant.So someone texted me about Sony Experia C.I went online and tried reading some reviews and according to them,it's pretty much fine.It doesn't have the best offer but it's perfectly fine and it's cheap.Well,what can I say,I'm the the face of cheapness.So I think I found a good phone for my mediocre standards.Okay,standards in gadgets.Also,in plans and goals.SOMETIMES.Okay,most of the time.Lol!
I'm looking for one at an affordable price and when I say affordable,something worth 500 pesos.Just kidding.I think all I really need to search is a laptop with a huge internal memory and a good wi fi connectivity.I wanted a desktop but I think convenience wise,laptop is more appropriate. My tv is defective and I wanted to replace it with a FLAT screen TV.But I realized,with the technology trend today,for sure my tv will be obsolete in just a short time.So I decided to keep it because I'm very sentimental.You see,that's what I don't understand.We are so excited about the new products but for sure few years from now,collectors have these so called auction where people are more than willing to spend thousand and millions for an item that was presserved in years .I have a good reason to have someone fix my TV so I can presserve it for the next five hundred years to come! Okay,that's in dog years. I also need a camera because I will be travelling more and I'm obsessed with taking photo's about nature.I'm not into selfie...YET...but even if I do,my camera is not intended for it.But then again,I have no idea about pixels and resolution.My list goes on and on.Not just gadgets but personal stuff from make up to clothes to shoes and INSECURITIES.Oops,did I just say the reason out loud. You see,it feels like I think I NEED these stuff but to be frank,they are NOT SUPPOSE TO BE NEEDS! They are just form of entertainment for me at least as of of the moment.Is there a gadget actually today that has all these features at the same time? I think there is but the quality would be more likely compromised. It's just crazy and depressing come to think of.But I'm thankful I'm not naturally born with a huge addiction to gadgets.In fact,every phone I have was only replaced when it's really damaged.My first few phones were usually second hand but for some reason every phone I possessed regardless if it's obsolete or outdated was just cool for me.My phone now is really defective and it needs replacement.The plug for the music is partially working.Youtube app is not working.Connection to wifi is crappy.And don't even start with my laptop.So here we go again,the challenge of finding a phone that suits me. So yeah.This is me and the things I thought I really needed.The "should haves" as others might deem.Clearly,this is our time now and you just have to deal with it.I'm glad I'm not an impusive buyer specially when it comes to gadgets.I'm modern by necessity and very practical by nature.I admire old stuff.I'm not just a hoarder,only I hoard stuff given to me as gifts.I still love using pen and paper when I have to write something.Yes,I write a lot online but I still have lots of notebooks back home that only me can understand because no matter how I love writing a lot,my pencraft doesn't get better.So I think,there are just few things that are on default.My pencraft and my face included.
I realized that You can't stop time.You can't stop culture from evolving.You can't just keep on holding back because no matter how much you wanted to hold on things,eventually you have to be more accepting and open minded and move on.I realized that even these "should haves" we have currently have will be something useless in just a couple of years.So one thing I learn is keeping the balance.Learn and unlearn but be practical.Try to be on trend but don't let it destroy your moral values.My love to nature is always here in my heart and I use social media to be more connected with my love for nature.My desire to go healthy living was made possible through the help of social media because I got connected with people who share the same sentiments and values as mine. And to live at present means having to let go of the past,learn from it and move on.It means knowing your priorites and setting your goals.It means determining what you really needed from what you just wanted.This is I think one of the biggest challenge these days but I can say it's still doable.Who were you before the world started dictating you about what you need and wanted. Seriously I NEED a phone.A Nokia 3310.So I can play space impact.
