My IPod Touch

One of my most cherished items is my IPod Touch. It is the single most fascination electronic device that I have ever used. Not only does it play music, but it also plays videos, allows you to surf the web, and has a built in apps which include E-mail, calendar, IM, games, and everything you could imagine. All these features in the convince of a simple finger tap due to touch screen capability.

The First day I suggested to my parents of using MY money to buy the IPod, I was faced with two angry and stubborn headed parents. They gave me numerous reasons as to why it is not a good item to buy. First on the list was the hefty price of $300, they wanted me to save my money and not waste it on what they called a “toy”. Second thing was how I would use it for a couple of month and then put it to the side to find something more interesting, so it was, as stated by them, “like throwing away money”. I fought hard and long for my iPod that they just gave up on me and let me do what I wanted. It felt good being able to buy something with my hard earned money. And with everyday I proved to my parents that this iPod was really a well thought out investment. I have used it everyday, helped me through my long walks to work, exercise and just plain boredom. To me it is more than just an iPod; it has become a necessity for my everyday life.
