Kelly O’Neal- Why I Heart My Media

Without my phone, I’d feel disconnected from the world. I use it to communicate with family far away, friends close by, and anything else I may need with just a few clicks of some buttons. I can’t think of many instances when I don’t have my phone with me, and it’s weird to think about the fact that one’s phone literally knows so much about his/her life. All the things they’ve ever texted or said during a call, all the pictures they’ve taken, all the things they’ve searched… only them and the phone know it all. That’s why I love my media!
