Speedy teXter

Texting is taking over; it is a new way to communicate. It’s a way to communicate when you don’t have time to talk on the phone, or simply if you don’t want to speak to the other person. As time passes by, more and more people are starting to use text messages. I use them because I can be having a conversation with multiple people and still be doing what I need to do. It’s also a way that you don’t have to use your minutes. If you have unlimited texting it’s worth it, but only if you use it a lot. It’s a flat rate and you can send and receive as many text messages as you want. The problem with texting is texting while driving. People often think they can text and drive at the same time. Then when they crash they realize they can’t, and then it’s too late. I am guilty of driving and texting, but on rare occasions. And when I do, I’m smart about it and am extra careful. Other than that, if I get a call I most likely won’t answer it. But I’m not talking about talking; I’m talking about text messages. Texting during class is another thing you shouldn’t do it’s disrespectful and I think it shouldn’t be done in class. It’s like taking a call, if you’re going to take a call, take it outside.
