Assignment 2- Quinn Andrews

I will be the first to admit I have an addiction to my phone. It's ridiculous. The reason I'm so addicted to my phone though is how much it does for me. My parents are divorced, I have two stepsisters, and at least three aunts I talk to on a regular basis. That alone is a good enough reason but add in crazy schedules and it would be an organizational nightmare to deal with sans cellphones. My dance team schedules an additional practice for Tuesday night, I can text both my mom and dad to tell them (every week, the house I stay at on what day changes) so I know who can take me and pick me up. I want friends over on Friday, I can text my brother to see if he's having his weekly game night. I need to know which teacher to get makeup work from in advance because of a doctor's appointment- I can simply text my mom asking what time we'd have to leave the school. I can text my stepsisters to see if their coming over for dinner on Sunday to see if I need to make extra dessert.Life is complicated, especially when you add in family, dance practices, archery practices, doctor's appointments, work schedules (my sporadic one and my parents'), dinners, parties, birthdays, club meetings, volunteering, as well as college preparation and a social life. I wouldn't be able to handle it if not for my phone. It's a headache to figure out anyway. All of that came from my cellphone. That is why cellphones can be positive, even if people tend to focus on the negative.
