Tuned In: "Way Back Home" & Other Ringtone Memories
<div  class=text-justify>

I'm one of those who could have a ringtone for so long that everyone around would stop wondering or being curious about the reason for using the ringtone. Having one particular ringtone for over a year for me means, I'm used to the sound so well that I don't react to it as excitedly as I did when I first made it my ringtone but I still love it.

It's with the different ringtones I've used over time I came to realize a bit what it means to love and keep loving even when the excitement is no longer there. On days I actually want to connect with my ringtone, it gets exciting again. But most days since after a year of using my favourite sound, I just pick up my call, unlike me before.

I remember my first ringtone on this phone of mine, it was the exact same ringtone in my old phone but I couldn't part ways with it even though I kinda had this syndrome of *"New phone, new everything inside"* lol. Well, that syndrome didn't work on my music selection for my ringtone, it actually got more exciting for me using it again.

I got a lot of comments from others because of that particular ringtone, it was **"Scars to your beautiful"** by the artist, **"Alessia Cara"**. One of my favourite songs from her and I actually picked the song at first because it had a good and lively opening, to alert me well that I have a call no matter how low the tune is except it's on silence.

Most of the comments I got on this ringtone was simply *"When will you set a new ringtone?"* and that's because they felt I was getting too used to the tune, what they didn't know was that it was just fine that way for me. The song acted like a reminder and made me feel good about myself over a long time by listening before I pick up.

Well, after a long time, I came across a song that until now, I'm not sure when I'll get to change it from my ringtone. It's a song that says a lot about what I want to think as often as I can... ***"Home and the peace I crave for"***. There's nothing as great as being happy and in peace even with the little you have, this song explores that for me.

I first heard the song in a clip, a Korean song by the artist **"Shaun"** who I wasn't familiar with but he won me over with just this song. It got even more exciting for me and my love for it grew when I saw an English mix of the song led by **"Conor Maynard"**. So it plays english first before the Korean language when my phone rings.

I've had only had to set a few ringtones but over all, my present ringtone **"Way Back Home"** and the one before **(Scars to your beautiful)** beats them all. I've never had an embarrassing ringtone since I've always been cautious of the music I set on my phone. But I've had old default tones play when I can't seem to decide a tone to select.

Talk of a song that just fits me so well, it's a song with English and Korean, a language I've been loving. Then it's a song about Home, love and peace... A perfect blend of beauty and sweet imaginations before I pick up a call, good or bad. </div>
