The Thing I Carry
Dear Apple Company,
It was around two o’clock on Sunday November 14, 2012. I was on my way to Verizon after my morning of church. When I arrived at Verizon I jumped out of the car and rushed to the door. As I pulled the door open I felt a cool breeze rush through my hair. I walked in and was greeted by a worker, he took my name and told me someone will be with me as soon as they can.
I was waiting impatiently until it was my turn to get helped, every minute felt like an hour. When my name was called I jumped right out of my seat and walked up to the counter where the worked said, “how can I help you today?” I told the worker that I would like to purchase a white Iphone 5. As the worker went to the back to go get my new phone I could barely stand still since i was so excited to finally get the phone I have been saving up for.
While I was waiting for the worker to come back I couldn’t stop thinking about all the things I will be able to do with my new phone like, going online, listening to music and texting with emoticons! I was so excited i couldn’t stop smiling ear to ear. I was going to be able to not only stay connected with my friends and family, but the world since I will be able to go online with my Iphone.
When the worker came back I was already pulling out my money and my new phone case that had a blue, purple, and orange Aztec design on it. After what seemed like forever I finally got my white Iphone 5. I gently put on the case and felt the smooth glass glide across my finger as i unlocked my phone for the very first time.
For the rest of the day I couldn’t seem to put my phone down. Since i was so ecstatic that I finally got the phone that I was saving all of my babysitting money for. Even when someone asked me if they could see my phone I wouldn’t let them because it was my “baby” and I didn’t want anything to happen to it, especially the day I got it!
If i didn’t have my phone I would be lost without it, since I use it everyday, starting with my alarm. Even though my phone is technically really light, I feel as if it is really heavy, since it is really important to me and I use it everyday.My phone is very helpful to me and it helps me stay on task everyday! Even after almost a year of owning my phone I still cant seem to get off of my phone, since I am so obsessed with it!
