The new phone
What's your shopping style? Do you research
products online before carefully making the right
decision? Do you rush to the shops and buy the first
thing that you see? Perhaps you get your mum to do
your shopping for you? I'm usually a mixture of
those styles, but recently I did something I've never
done before.
There was an advert for a smartphone and since
I was actually thinking of getting one at the time,

order. And I was impressed with how fast it arrived
which I thought was a good sign. Unfortunately,
I was wrong. I'm not at all happy with the phone. I'm
sure it's faulty. For example, I texted a friend
yesterday and the message went to the wrong
person. That's really bad it made me feel
uncomfortable and my friend was very confused -

there were all those irritating advertisements in the
middle of the film. This particular break was so long
that I even forgot what I was watching, but perhaps
that was because I was very tired after a long week
at school. Anyway, I don't know what happened to

they're on. But this time I was surprised.
