Yeah, so my parents got me a Cell phone for Christmas with a three-year plan all paid for, assuming I don’t go over my minutes. I’ll ignore the fact that they probably should have gotten a 'pay-as-you-go" plan and just bought me a lot of cards with the phone, and just accept the fact that I now have a cell phone.
The thing is, I was always one of those anti-cell phone guys. I hate being in class and hearing one ring, or be in the middle of a conversation with someone as they stop tralking with me to answer the phone. Now I have one, and have to make sure I never turn into one of those kinds of people. I have a plan.

Never take it to class. No point. I don’t see why people do this, you aren’t going to answer it in class, and unless you are seriously into the stock market (which if you were you wouldn’t bother to waste those two hours in class,) you don’t need it for the five to fifteen minute walk to/from classes.

Try not to rely on it to call someone if there is a land line nearby. If I am outside a house, I should walk into the house and make a call. I know a few people who will be three feet from a phone, and yet the make a call on their cell if they need to call someone. If I ever do anything like that, you all have full permission to kill me.

Do NOT use a stupid, annoying song as a ring tone. Use a ring. I have choosen the ring I am using. While I don’t actually care for any of the ones on my phone, this is the one I hate the least. It’s unique, in that I don’t recall hearing any ring like it, and it’s only mildly annoying.
So there we go. Hopefully, I will only use this phone for good.
