If it's some short messages or just things to inform, I rather text. And it's so much more economical. Btw, how's the bill counted over there? Here for 160 characters or less, you pay for one message- 60 cents. Which is half the price of one-minute call.
I'm not the type to talk on phone for like huge amount. I just get the important message and that's it. OMG. I'm so mechanical!!
Yay for text.
And yeah, the good thing is that you can store the text you like. This way, when you have nothng to do, you can go through them and smile, recalling sweet memories. Often, I do that.
Take care,
