After more than twenty years without one, I got finally around and acquired a mobile phone. It is a simple Nokia phone that does not even have a camera (Yes, those phones without camera still exist) or whatever toys most modern phones have. So I guess it is just right for me since everything I want to do (for now) is to get in contact with my father to get home with him after university. Until now, I took the phone of my mother for this purpose, and that is why she wanted me to get an own one. I, for myself, could still live without it.
Originally, we wanted to use the same contract that my brother uses for my new phone (since my mother does already the same), but it turned out that they recently changed prices and a prepaid tariff was cheaper, so that is what I have now. Anyway, I find all this tariff stuff overly complicated. We spent nearly an hour in the Vodafone shop.
