Sometimes.. I’m not a big fan of making phone calls i’ve to admit.. but I do call my family and friends often.. and don't get me wrong on the other hand I’ve never done a voicemail message in my entire life.. I pretty sure it’s more of a personal or cultural thing.. nevertheless I do like the idea of making voicemails because it’s rather frustrating to ring someone and can’t get through.. not being able to get a feedback so you’re left enable to pass on the message and have to wait until they return to finally deliver it 🥲.. sorry for the mistakes btw

This exercise is great to practice listening to internet symbols and numbers. Unfortunately, I still have difficulty listening to English.
