Phubbers
In the past, if I had to look away from my phone, I felt like I was going to die. When I had lunch with my family or dated with my friends, I couldn’t resist replying to a text message or checking my Facebook, WeChat on the mobile phone. Before long, it was easy for me to get tired. The more I texted during the day, the poor my sleep was. I couldn’t even focus on my study.
My friend told me that people who can’t help checking their phones all day are known as phubbers(低頭族). Phubbing trends not only to involve the young people, but also the elderly. Soon, I noticed a Stop Phubbing campaign site had been launched. I found the slogan of the website as follows: "stop twittering, stop posting photos…enjoy your food, enjoy the music and respect your campaign."
Thankfully, I realized there was actually an outside world. My divided attention could keep me from what is truly important. Now, I can use the phone without feeling like a drug addict. I have more time to enjoy real-life activities. Use your cell phone and don’t let it use you.

低頭族
在過去，如果我不得不遠離我的手機，我覺得我要去死。當我吃午飯，和我的家人或者和朋友約會，我忍不住要回個簡訊或檢查我的臉譜網，在手機微信。不久，我就很容易累了。我越短的白天，可憐的我的睡眠。我甚至不能集中精力學習。
我的朋友告訴我，人不能幫助檢查自己的手機每天都被稱為低頭族。低頭趨勢不僅涉及到年輕人，也有老人。很快，我注意到一個停止低頭競選網站已經啟動。我發現這個網站的口號：“停止低頭，停止上傳照片…享受你的食物，享受音樂和尊重你的行動。”
謝天謝地，我意識到外面有一個世界。我分散的注意力可以使我遠離真正重要的東西。現在，我可以使用手機，而不覺得像吸毒者。我有更多的時間享受現實生活中的活動。使用你的手機，不要讓它使用你。
