Do you remember your first phone?
If your first phone was a smartphone, this post is not for you. This post is about the keypad phones. The Nokia 1100s and 3310s, the Sony Ericssons, the Motorolas, and the Samsungs.
We didn't know a single term about phones back then - be it the processor, the RAM, or the ROM, we knew nothing.
All we knew was that we needed the phone for three things: sending SMS to our friends, calling our friends and relatives, and the most important one: playing games.
Be it Snake, Space Impact, Tetris, Sudoku, or Cricket games, the excitement level while playing them was unmatchable. You'd do anything to sneak into your dad's phone and play these games.
But sadly, gone are those days when we found happiness just with a phone. The phone that you're holding now might have the best of features, but the happiness that your first phone gave you was surreal.
Weird, but sometimes old and outdated things or even their memory remind you that time has passed so quickly, just like your first phone's memory makes you think so. It's a bittersweet feeling.
