Cell Phones

I should stop being lazy now. I've been home for seven hours, and I haven't written a single thing yet. Bad John, bad...

Almost every teenager I know has a cell phone. Yet I don't. Why? I wouldn't use one. If I wanted a cell phone, and I was willing to put out the money to get it, then sure, I could have one.

Specifically, I'm not a fan of texting. To me, it seems like a pathetic excuse for communication. It seems like it could easily get awkward, and honestly, how many people use proper punctuation while texting? Some, sure, but not many.

The concept behind cell phones is great, and very much necessary in today's world. But, cheap phones can do that. For example, I routinely use a super cheap cell phone that my parent's let me use when I need to be able to be reached when I'm out. Why can't more people simply settle for that?
