You have a cellphone?

n today’s world, many people find it shocking that a person doesn’t have a cell phone, I find it shocking that they do. A few days ago, I went to the Indian Fest at the Bob Carpenter’s Stadium in UD, and there I met this little girl. She was around 7-9 and I was worried when I couldn't find her mom. I didn’t have my cell phone with me and I couldn’t call her mom. I was explaining this to her when she suddenly says that I could use her phone to call her mom. I was shocked. I mean, how would you feel when a 7 year old tells you that you can use her phone? At first, I did not believe that it was her phone, but rather it was her sisters’. After meeting up with her mom, I found out that the phone was really hers! It wasn’t an emergency phone, but rather a normal everyday use phone. I was in confusion, I mean I had to BEG, pled, pay, and work for my phone and this 7 year old just got hers. I didn’t not have a phone until 9th grade! Not only that, but she also has numbers of her friends in her phone! Her mom told me that sometimes they call/text each other. Wow, is our culture so technologically advanced that even kids as young as 7 have a phone? I then started to realize how much of big influence technology is becoming to the newer generations. Everyone has a small device of technology that they carry around with themselves wherever they go. Whether it is a phone or an Ipod, we can all defiantly say that technology has now become a part of our lives.
