I LOVE my cell phone, I'd die w/o it! Mine was a present from my dad when I started college. At the beginning it was more trouble than it was worth due to the fact that my mom is VERY worrisome. If left the campus 5 min's late, she'd call freaking out making me have to answer the phone while trying to merge in traffic. She has learned however.
There's been many times when I need my cell phone also. Once was whenme and TKE209 was leaving athens when we hit hgh water making his car useless and stranded in very deserted part of town. i called my dad and he was there w/in 45 min's. Another was when me and my girl was friving in town and we witnessed a hit-and-run. We tailed the guy while talking on the phone w/911 getting his information.
I highly value my phone
