if i were away from home for a year, i would be very lonely, especially in the beginning before i made friends. if i could call my mother and father, i would hear their familiar voices and i would not feel so lonely. hearing my friends’ voices would also help me overcome my sadness.
i’ve never been on my own so there are many things i am not familiar with. i’ve never opened a bank account, got a driver’s license, or made my own food. if i had to cook chicken or something, i could call up my mother and she could tell me how to make dinner.
sometimes, i may just want to talk in my own language. with my cell phone, i could call my friends and tell them about my new life. this would make them jealous of me共2页

. i would call them a lot so they could hear all the wonderful things i am doing.
for me a cell phone is a necessity. i would need it anytime i was lonely, anytime i needed to do something i didn’t know how to do, and anytime i just wanted to talk. of course, the phone bill will be sent to my parents.
