I am talking about a time when my father gave me a smartphone that I really wanted. It was after I finished my high school exam with flying colors. Therefore, my mother gave me a new smartphone to use for my studies and my work. Before using a smartphone, I usually used a commuter to chat with friends or send and receive messages. I really looked forward to a new smartphone because it is convenient and flexible to use everywhere and at any time. When I received the smartphone, I was not surprised because it was a promise my father made before I took part in the important exam. However, I was still happy and excited about the gift because it was truly wonderful. My mother gave me an important story in my life.
