As a 21-year-old in this day and age, I question how people once survived without a cell phone. We have everything important stored into the memory of the small device that fits perfectly in our hand. We don't realize how much we care about it — until one second we put it down next to us and the next second, it's gone. And that's when it happens...

1. Frustration

I just had it in my hand. I only walked into the bathroom. Where could it have gone in that short five-minute period?

2. Lost

If my phone is lost, I am lost.

3. Panic

Oh my gosh, what if someone sees my texts, my pictures, or worse...my screenshots. If someone finds my phone, I will never get a job.

4. RED ALERT

WHERE THE HELL IS MY PHONE?! My privacy and my life--gone forever.

5. Depression

Well, I might as well go sit in my room. Maybe watch Netflix--can't really lose your computer.

6. Reflection

I can't give up. Think, THINK.. Wait a minute... *checks back pocket*

7. Relief

Then you realize it is in the most convenient obvious spot in the world, and though you hate yourself for being that oblivious, you are so relieved that your baby is finally back in your hand.

Unless you actually lost it. Then your life sucks.
