Last April I was so excited because finally my phone contract was up! I had been counting down the days till I could get rid of my old razor. I had been researching phones that I wanted, and I happened to come across the samsung impression. I loved that it had the option of using a full keyboard, a touch full keyboard, or I could text by writing the letters. I was smitten!
Walking into the AT&T store I went right over to the phone and purchased it. It was a great feeling. The next couple weeks at school I was showing it off, and saying how great it worked. Low and behold my fate changed a Monday morning at school.
I was about to go to the bathroom when all the sudden I heard a plunk in the toliet. I closed my eyes for a moment and pretended like I didn't hear it. I opened my eyes and looked in the toliet. There, at the bottem of the toliet was my beatiful two week old samsung impression (named Rex). I jutted my hands in the toliet and scooped out the phone. A girl in the bathroom told me not to put the battery back in, so I took her advice.
I went home and researched how to fix my phone and came across several websites that told me to soak it in a bag of rice. So for the next two weeks I left my phone in the rice. It works now! But since it has water damage it's slowly breaking:(. I'm glad that the rice saved my phone for over a year now, and I learned to never put my phone in my back pocket.
Rex!
Emily, sadly that I can see you doing. My friend put his phone through the washer and I gave him that same advice. Rice is dry and acts like an anahydrate. An anahydrate soaks up any moisture. Those little bags in your shoes, purse, backpack, and much other things that sais not to eat, which im sure you have, is an anahydrate. Chemistry for ya! =]
