Okay, I would like to talk about my smartphone. I had this since I was on elementary school. So at the time actually almost all of my friends already have smartphones and I actually got mine at grade 6. So I’m about 12 years old at that time, quite mature I would say. The first phone that I got was red colored and then I changed my phone twice. So this is the third phone that I use now and I think having your own phone has made things so much more convenient. For me, not my phone, it feels like all my life, and one had helped the files. That means it has so many important data and records and so many things that I couldn’t get it printed out, so many memories also. And I use it every day for a source of entertainment, for example by scrolling and TikTok or Instagram. And I also use it to track schedule because now I use Notion and it has improved my life so much and increased my productivity. I also I also use it to communicate with people. So I use WhatsApp and Telegram sometimes. I also often use it to do school tasks. So maybe we have a task to write a literary work. So I use my phone because now it’s very easy to, you know, just go to Google Docs and do some writing. Thank you.

Okay, I would like to talk about my smartphone. I have had this since I was in elementary school. At that time, almost all of my friends already had smartphones, and I got mine in grade 6. I was about 12 years old at that time, quite mature, I would say. The first phone I got was red, and then I changed my phone twice. So this is the third phone I use now, and I think having my own phone has made things so much more convenient. For me, my phone feels like my whole life, and it helps store files. That means it has so much important data and records, and so many things that I couldn't get printed out, along with many memories. I use it every day for entertainment, for example, by scrolling through TikTok or Instagram. I also use it to track my schedule because now I use Notion, and it has improved my life so much and increased my productivity. I also use it to communicate with people, so I use WhatsApp and Telegram sometimes. I often use it to do school tasks. For instance, if we have a task to write a literary work, I use my phone because now it's very easy to just go to Google Docs and do some writing. Thank you.
