I am aware on MY surroundings, people get annoyed with me because as I'm crossion the road say, I will say hold on for a sec and plot's of people go why did you say that? I reply I'M CROSSING A BLOODY ROAD :P Someone once said meh I don't even look anymores :o

I'm afraid this is applies to most pedestrians in my part of the world whether they're using a mobile phone or not. The poor old motorists need eyes in the backs of their heads when driving in town nowadays. The pedestrians (& cyclists) know full well that the motorists will get the blame if they so much as touch them.



I see this a lot too. There is a cross walk by my school and everyday when everyone goes home I see a bunch of the students walking across the street with iPod earphones in both ears and eyes on the dial. I mean if I lost a sense like that in the outside world how would I survive.


Always look both ways kids... ;)

Im with Chad, I mostly text girls. As a matter of fact ive been texting since I woke up at 8am :D, battery's getting low.

If im texting guys then its usually about sports, or if I need homework.

Ill be suprised if moms even know how to text, but my mom has the iphone  ::) ;D...so she knows how to.  :-/ ;D :D

You don't see much texting while driving over here.. (it is fined)

I text about 10-15 times per week... I'd rather make a call...

BUT I have to say that I hate to listen my house's landline phone ringing. I rarely talk to people using it. (Should be disconnected IMO)

Any cellphone with a screen and vibration does it for me... nice and quiet. (I think that didn't sound too good)
