A day at the Mall : Repair my phone

My cellphone broke; it suddenly faded black and wouldn't open. The switch is broken, so I won't be able to open it when it dies. All I have to do to open it is double-tap to wake. So we went to Choice Market Mall to get it fixed, but it was raining heavily. We thought it would stop, but it was already 2:00 pm and still raining, so my husband together with my son decided to go there. We had an umbrella; we took a trycycle to get there and only had to walk a short distance to the mall to save money on transportation.

Since they fix cellphones on the second floor, we went there as soon as we got to the mall. My husband know this because he also fixed it here when my cellphone died, and he paid 300 pesos to get it opened. He was also informed that the battery needs to be changed if my phone died again.

He spoke to the mechanic when we got there because they were the ones who had the conversation. My son and I just accompanied him, I just want to go there to wander.because we only went out once.


While they discussing my phone, my son and I went for a walk.

There are about ten places here that repair cellphones. I wonder if they earn here because they're so close together. Maybe they do? They probably won't stay long there if they don't make money. In any case, having a large number of them here will help to expedite the repair of cellphones; if one person is working on something, they can transfer it to another.

The cellphone repair shop is close to a children's playground.
Since my son is only ten months old and has not yet learned to walk, we will simply watch the children play inside. When he can walk, I'll let him play inside as long as he wants.

We even walked around, They have many more machines that can entertain the children. That's all I took pictures of because my child is naughty, hehe. It's hard to walk around and take pictures if you're holding a child.
He is happy because he sees so much and enjoys watching. I allowed him to touch the machine button.

I also let him ride in the car so we could both sit and I could hold him; only five peso coin were inserted into the machine. He smiled at me after being surprised when the car moved and rang. I just let him play the monobela of the car while we listened to music.

They also have a lot of clothes and shoes for sale here; if I hadn't had a child yet, I would have bought some because I'm so into clothes haha. Their products are both inexpensive and new; they offer both brand new and thrifted items, giving the option of where to buy. But I didn't buy anything either, I'm currently focusing on my child and saving for his future. So I'm only window shopping.

There are three location like this,and there is a lot of jewelry for sale as well. I order necklace online so that I can't buy here. When I afford, I want to purchase jewelry that can be pawned so that I can use for the emergency in the future. That's why I don't buy a lot of this, as long as it doesn't fade, its okay for me.

When I get tired, we return to his father So we can take turns because my son dislikes staying in one spot. He gets restless when we're not walking around, so his father and I alternate taking him around. Even if it's just back and forth where we go. Haha

We arrived at the food area. I bought the waffle with ube flavor since I couldn't find anything they sell there appropriate for my baby. They say your baby will taste what ever you eat, so I bought that because he wants to eat whatever I eat. I only gave him a little.

We returned to the cellphone repair shop after purchasing waffles, and my phone was eventually fixed. However, I was taken back when the fix man informed me that the front camera was no longer on my phone. It only had a back camera, so I was unable to take front-facing photos or even make video calls, which made me unhappy. He said that since my phone is a Xiaomi 11 Lite, the front camera was lost due to a phone update. He claimed that the front camera required a CPU and that I would have it fixed again, so I was also at fault for updating it.

I paid 2,800 Philippine peso ($49.30) for the battery, switch and entire body of my cellphone to be repaired. I need to save money To fix my front camera.

After paying, we took the escalator to exit of the mall. It was still raining outside, so we had to walk down the street again to find a tricycle.
