Direct Point Of Contact

I often exude a faint smile whenever I recall the long conversations I had with my friends on the phone... Nostalgic...

During my secondary school days, the usage of handphones proliferated... It was the "in" thing at that time... I was considered as one of the laggards due to my late adoption of the handphone... As time goes by, I became over reliant on the handphone or rather the "SMS" function... It sort of diminished the purpose of me calling people or vice versa... I couldn't really recall what it feels like to chat or conversate on the phone anymore... hearing the voice, the intonation, what he/she meant and was trying to direct at that point of time didn't matter much... I always felt that SMSes were sufficient enough... sufficient enough to convey what I meant at that time...

This subliminal effect had definitely caused habits and perceptions to change... It's quite scary coz it attacks your subconscious without you knowing it... Thanks to SMSes, I've become incompetent in conveying what I feel whenever I'm on the phone... It just feels awkward/alien/foreign to me... It feels like removing the barriers that are always "protecting" you... Once you setp out of your comfort zone... The word to describe would be... naked I would say...

Okay... I'm weird... but I'm kind of glad I got out of it... The feeling that was long lost had somewhat rekindled again... I guess...
