Are you textually active?

Who doesnt have a cell phone these days? Im pretty sure about everyone does, and if you dont you gotta be going crazy. I can not go very long without having my phone. Its always got to be right there by my side. Im on it twenty four seven, either texting or on facebook. Calling people is overated these days, texting has takin over.

Not being able to have cell phones in school hasnt stopped us teenagers from constantly being on our phones. Many teachers are even on there phones through out the school day. Everybody texts these days. Even my friends 80 year old grandma texts and has facebook. Technology has takin over. When people type papers these days they type using slangs and not even realizing it because they are so used to it.

Some slangs that are mostly used through texting are:

BRB: Be right back
G2G: Got to go
FML: F*ck my life
BTW: By the way
ATM: At the moment
BF: Boy Friend
GF: Girl Friend
BFFL: Best friends for life
OMG: Oh my god
LOL: Laugh out loud
IDC: I dont care
IDK: I dont know
IDGAF: I dont give a f*ck
BC: Because

And a lot more, thats just a few of the common ones. I know very few teenagers who dont have cells phones, pretty much everyone does and pretty much everyone is texting.

  2. I agree also, my phone runs my life. I couldn't go a day without it. My parents are always telling me to put my phone down, but I can't. Cell phones and texting are like drugs. So addictive, and you can't let go!

  5. I use my phone all the time. I wouldn't say that I'm addicted, but my phone usually has to be somewhat near me.
