And this is what my typical day looks like..
I toss and turn on my bed, knowing in my sub-conscious that its time
to wake up. So I gradually open my eyes and start to look for my best friend.
Where did she go again? I get into a panic, jump up and start to look for my
phone. I finally breathe a sigh of relieve after I find her in my hand bag (that’s
the next best place to keep my phone when its not on me).
Like every other person suffering from the same addiction, the first
I do when I wake up in the morning is to check all my social media accounts. I
check my Instagram. Ah ah no likes? No new followers? Ok I really like that
picture, so I scroll a bit, like some more and off I am to twitter. What’s
trending on twitter? Ah! Inyanya had sex with one girl like that? What’s more,
she isn’t his girlfriend? Hmm juicy. I have to go to Linda Ikeji’s blog, to get
more gossip. My tummy is remainding me that’s its time to poop. So I go along
with my phone, which is the best pooping companion everrrr. Omg, do you know
how relaxing it is, when you are taking a dump and reading the lastest gossips
on LIB? It is the best thing ever. I used to go a newspaper before but now, but
my phone just keeps me company the most.
Ok I’m dressed and ready for work. Time to take a SelfieJ. One for IG, one
for face book and the last one for snap chat. I don’t really post pictures on
twitter, not my thing.
I am half way through the day, and I realize Omg! My phone would
soon go off, I start to panic again. What am I going to do? How am I going to reply
to my chats if am offline? I hate that word offline because it is not an option
for me. O God, please don’t let my phone die. I beg you. So I run to my colleague
and ask her to lend me her charger, and this is what I get.
“Carole why are you always looking for charger? Its either you are
charging your phone or you are looking for a charger. This your phone no dey
rest?”
Na wa o, what is doing this babe self, does she want my phone to
die. So I tell her,
“Babe have you forgotten what I told you? Being offline is not an
option”.
The day is over, and I’m just tired. But trust me, my daytime job,
does not compare to the work I do on social media. I mean, all that chatting,
posting pictures, updating profiles, liking pictures and posting on my time
line is just exhausting. So I have my bath, check my social media accounts one
last time and then keep my phone within arms reach. Then I sleep off.
MY NAME IS CAROLE, AND I AM
A PHONE AD.
If you can relate to my write up then do not even kid yourself. You
are an addict also. Have a lovely day.
