duds

It has been about a week since my candy bar phone has died, yet I don't really miss it that much.

I usually don't make that many phone calls to being with- it's usually people who are calling me to ask about something such as where I'm interviewing.

I hope that during this time, I'm not getting phone offers for interviews. That's probably unlikely the case since we live by email in this day and age.

Hah! I feel old, saying, "In this day and age." The impact of my mortality did not hit me until interviewing with some other students who were younger than me. When Usher's "Yeah" played on the radio, they were joking about how they danced at their middle or high school prom to that song.

If I can recall, my classmates and I partied to that song in college.

All my cousins have iPhones. In fact, I believe I am the last one in my generation to not have a smartphone.

My decision ultimately came down to practicality over aesthetics. I had picked the Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket because it uses the native Android operating system, which I prefer mainly because I tend to use Google Apps quite often.

Ugh Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum are here. Time to bounce.
