Don't Waste Your Tears Over Your Broken Phone, It's Probably Slow And Outdated Anyway

When my dad got me a new Samsung Galaxy Note 8, I instantly fell in love with it and had completely tossed away my broken Samsung Galaxy Note 3.

Have you ever cracked the screen of your most precious phone? Well, I did.

It was such a bitter experience. When I cracked the screen of my Samsung Galaxy Note 3, I was so sad because I broke my favorite phone. I really loved that phone. But my mom kept pestering me to buy a new phone and that I shouldn't be so sad over my broken Samsung Galaxy Note 3 at all. I didn't get it when she told me. I just kept crying and kept telling myself getting a new phone will not be the same as my old phone.

But boy, was I wrong. When my dad got me a new Samsung Galaxy Note 8, I instantly fell in love with it and had completely tossed away my broken Samsung Galaxy Note 3. Here are three reasons why.

1. Unlike my Samsung Galaxy Note 3, the screen is a lot bigger and the phone even has a longer stylus pen!

Because I like to draw so much, I have installed drawing apps on my phone and made use of my phone. If you are an artist like me who likes to draw and wants to spend less money, having a Samsung Galaxy Note 8 is a great substitute for a bamboo tablet.

2. The Samsung Galaxy Note 8 has more space than the Samsung Galaxy Note 3

I am able to download as many apps as I want. That means I can download Twitter, Instagram, Tumblr, Pinterest, Facebook, DeviantArt, YouTube, and a whole lot more! As I go to my email app, my email app does not have any problem syncing and receiving emails. When I had the Samsung Galaxy Note 3, I had to delete a lot of apps along with some photos and files in order for my email app to have space to receive emails.

3. The Samsung Galaxy Note 8 takes great, high-quality photos!

Samsung Galaxy Note 8 has a camera! It has so many settings you can use to get the perfect photo of your family and friends and even selfies! One setting that I really like is called "Live Focus" because you can adjust the blur of the background and make the people captured in the photo in great focus. You can also edit the pictures with "photo editor pro" to enhance the photo by adjusting color and brightness, cropping, and even adding stickers and cool effects!


The lesson I learned from this experience is simply this: When your phone is broken, this is a call to get a new phone!

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2024, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."

mu bucket list

I was sitting at my cubicle, now that I am an adult, looking at the rain pouring down on the windowsill, bumming on life, wishing for the rain to just stop for a full day.

There are moments where we count down the hours until work is over and how many more days till the weekend, and this many weeks until something exciting. Or something like that? Well, I was bumming because my next day off from work is not until Memorial Day weekend, which is not until the end of May. And since this is my first year out of college being a “real person,” I am totally missing the winter, spring and summer breaks. I am sure all of us have felt this way even if just for a hot minute…
