Rich kids?

These past few days I noticed that many secondary school students have handphones on them. How do I know they're in secondary school? Why by their uniforms of course. Do their schools allow them to bring the handphones to school? If yes, they're really lucky. I remember during the good ol' days when nobody was allowed to bring most electronic gadgets to school. We couldn't even bring a walkman to school, what more a handphone. But luckily we were allowed to bring a calculator. Without the calculator in Forms 4 & 5, I'd have failed Maths.
