iPOD TOUCH = ABSO-FREAKIN-LUTELY AMAZING!
Oh my lordy. I am in love with this thing! I’ve only had it for fifteen hours and I’ve already run down the battery twice…hehe (in the picture above, it’s charging :P ). Everything about it is just…stunning; words cannot describe it. The touch screen is amazing. This is the first device that had a touch-sensitive screen that I’ve owned, and I love it. The user interface is amazing…it’s simple and elegant and everything that I would expect from Apple. Although the touch keyboard is taking some getting used-to, I’m starting to adjust to it and it’s becoming more familiar and easier to use.
One of my favorite features is the built-in WiFi and Mobile Safari. Checking email and IM’ing and reading feeds and blogging AND watching movies and listening to music all in one device? Heck yes! I love how it’s the “full” internet, too, not the garbage that they labeled “mobile web”. It’s also awesome to have 2GB more of storage space than my mini had, although I’m finding that my TV shows and movies have taken up that extra space (and more!).
Other than my iPod, I got a sweatshirt, some chocolate, and a 2008 Page-A-Day calendar that counts down the days until Georgie-Porgie Bush is out of office! My aunt gave me a gift card to Hollister, too. It was a good Christmas. :)
I still can’t get over how fast this holiday season went…it feels like Halloween was last week! When we were sitting down to have dinner and my mom brought all the extravagant food to the table, I thought to myself, Didn’t this just happen, like, yesterday? and I still feel like it was just Thanksgiving. Frankly, I’m disappointed that it’s all over (I don’t count New Years Eve as part of the holiday season…more on that tomorrow!) and it still doesn’t feel very much like Christmas. Although I am going to miss the festive atmosphere and the fun of the holiday season, it’s going to be nice to have a slow few months coming up. Yay for relaxation!
