Good day guys! If you’ve noticed I’m not so active on mylot today. It’s because I went to a barrio town fiesta and as much as I enjoyed the food, I was a little irked that there was very low phone reception in that town.
So I overloaded myself with free food today and had a technology detox for a couple of hours. Now I’m back. How’s your day been? What’s keeping you busy? How long can you last without a phone.

@JohnRoberts So there’s not much need to contact people via phone on your end?

@flapiz That would factor in. It also depends on need, situation and priorities.

I used to think a cellphone was a luxury when it first came out and I couldn’t afford one. Now it has become a necessity. I know life without it but I guess I spent most of my life with it.
It must have been hard to communicate with people from distant places on your early years.

A fair sounds fun! And it’s good that you are not so much on your phone.

@flapiz That's great, and that's exactly why I would like to not use my phone all that much in public. When I'm with friends, and I'm on my phone, it just feels kind of stupid, so I try to do it as little as possible.
I do understand that you missed your boyfriend. It must be hard being in a long distance relationship.

Thanks Thelma. It’s a Sunday so we really went to church before we went to join our aunt’s fiesta. I really think fiestas and food in general do bring people together.

Lechon! And Is that suman? I had a great day. I went out to meet up with an old friend. She's feeling very sad right now so I have to be there to comfort her.
