journal entry: Sublime to Ridiculous

hi guyz, this is my first journal entry...enjoy!

Texting. Many people know this is what I eat, breathe, and practically live by (ahem.) Still, I know some people think that texting is overrated. As my parents would say, "just pick up the home phone and call your friends!!!" well I don't call my friends. i text them. Why? because it's faster! But faster doesn't always mean better. Texting is like emailing on the road. And it's on a phone. What's the point? And you actually have to pay per message (at least with my plan I have to), unlike with email it's totally free.

For some reason people (cough cough) think it's totally cool to walk around and text people. (Actually I don't do that all the time...) The strangest thing is that people text at school when half the time their friends are in their classes! What's up with that? You can always talk to your friend after class. And did you know if you text a lot with your phone near your stomach you could have a kind of cancer?

(Trust me, I haven't texted during class. If you're in my English class, you would probably know that about 1 out of 30 every people text in class...I think.) But if you text during class and are caught, then people still think that's cool, since it makes a big point to everyone in the room that they have a CELL PHONE! You might as well tell it to the entire world...I wouldn't.

So really, texting isn't that great. (ahem) It's kinda strange, but people do it every day. It's enjoyable, but it still has risks. (Like texting in class)
