Lucky Phone?

I just got a new phone a few days ago because our two year warranty just expired. Actually, because I lost my phone in the bathroom and needed a new one was the real reason behind me getting a new phone. I was just lucky that I lost it now since I our plan expired anyway.
In the quest of finding a new (freee) phone, my family went to various different verizon locations. Ok, actually, my dad did all the looking, and my family just went with him when he found the best store. I'm not sure how many stores he went to, but he finally called us to the little store in Kahala Mall in the middle of macy's and jeans warehouse. We talked to one of the workers, and she showed us the various different types of phones we could get. At first, she showed us a phone similar to the one I lost. I was fine with that; I mean, I honestly didn't need a fancy one. I didn't think I deserved one in the first place, especially since I misplaced my old one.
While this salesperson went behind the counter to retrieve the boxes my soon to be new phone, I spotted a sleek black phone, similar to a razor. I just had to look at it, so I opened it; and I bet you that my jaw dropped. For this phone was like no other phone I've seen before. Even though it was looked like a razor at first, it didn't look like one when I flipped it open. For this phone had a *gasp* keyboard! I have never seen a phone with a keyboard before, except for the bulky sidekick some of my friends have. I'm pretty sure I was mesmerised by it, because the salesperson came back and said, "You like it don't you?" I nodded my head. "Oh ya, I almost forgot, this week is a special sale. You can get this phone for free if you renew your plan." I couldn't believe it. How could I be so lucky? She showed my family the new tricks this phone can do. With this phone, I would be able to go on the internet, text, and listen to music! (I have never been able to text on my other phones before.) I didn't think that my dad would let me have this, and actually reward me for my irresponsible deed. But he did, mainly because the salesperson talked him into it.
At first, I was excited with all of the special tricks this samsung could do, playing around with my new settings options, and my one month free trial of the internet. However, I was surprised to learn that I actually began to miss my new phone dispite the amazing gadget that now lies in my pocket. My free internet trial will soon expire, and I will no longer be able to use it anymore. My old phone had a two special charms on it I cannot replace. One was from Beijing and the other from Okinawa. My old phone showed the time in the front screen so that I didn't have to open my phone every time I wanted to check the time. And most of all, my old phone had all my contacts in it, that I can't get back, what's the point in texting when you don't know anyone's phone number? With my terrible memory, I'm not able to contact my friends and family who I don't see often anymore. I never would think that I would say this but I think losing that phone wasn't so lucky after all.
