On the iPod thing

At first, I was never [really] interested in having an iPod, though I'd be hypocrite if I say I don't like it. Who would not want to have such a cool gadget where you can put everything into it - from your most favorite songs, to your videos and photos, and a lot more? I've always admired it, but I never thought - not once - of getting myself one. I sure do love listening music and that means anywhere I go, I always make sure I have something with me to listen to that would at least keep me busy especially when traveling and stuck in a heavy traffic, or when I'm not doing anything at all. Before my husband gave me an iPod as a birthday present, I used to store my songs in my mobile phone. It doesn't have enough memory to hold a lot of songs [maximum of 10 songs] so, I was not able to actually save a lot in it. Every time I found a new song and would like to put it to my mobile phone, I always had to sacrifice one.

D knows how much I love listening music and looking at our photos and videos all the time. That's what made him decide to get me an iPod despite of me refusing him every time he'd ask me if I wanted one. For me, it's an expensive gift and as much as possible, I won't let him spend on something I can get by with nothing. I was happy with what I had, but he knew I at least should have something better. So, before my birthday, he bought an iPod nano online and had it shipped out. It didn't take long for it to get here. And on the day of my birthday, it arrived! And another thing; he bought it in my favorite color of all - green! We weren't expecting it would get here on that date because as what it said, it might take 7 to 14 days and he bought it on the 5th I think of August and wasn't shipped out till the next day. It's really amazing how God works on even the simplest things to make us happy. He is never too early nor too late; He is always on time!!

I'm happy of course that I have an iPod now because I have something so convenient that can hold all my favorite songs, pictures, and videos. I haven't uploaded more videos and photos, yet - I don't know how!! [hahaha] I can't believe at how a small gadget as this can hold too much. One more thing I like about it is, its being portable. I can carry it with me anywhere I go and it's so thin that I can even put it in my pocket! It's just so amazing! I have 426 songs in there right now; 21 photos; and a video. I don't know what else to put as of now and it still has more than 5G of free space left. I'm just waiting for my husband to come home from his deployment because I want to copy some of the songs that he has in his iPod. And he's the one who knows a lot better than I do on how to use it with regards to transferring videos and photos.

I never wanted to have one before because of its cost. But now, I'd say that having one isn't that bad after all - it's even better!!

[I can't thank my husband enough for giving me this :)]
