I just bought an Ipod Video for myself as X'mas gift. I was thinking of buying Ipod nano before, it's very small and light, but not big enough storage for me. I need to use it to store my pictures so that I don't have to carry my laptop with me everywhere I travel. Luckily, not long after nano came out, Ipod released this new product -- Ipod video. It's thin, light, good looking, big size screen, and the space can go up to 60G, which is perfect for what I need, even though I finally decided to go for the 30G one. 1G a day, I can store pictures for about a couple of weeks on the road, and still have enough space for some music, maybe a little video. :)
Besides Ipod, I just realized that there are so many things I need to buy -- I need to buy some accessories for my new Ipod, such as a good looking case, docking station etc; I also need an external hard drive to store all the pictures and music, right now my laptop space is almost full with those; a very small compact digital camera, so that I can take it into my small purse when I dress pretty and go out at night, then I need to get 1G SD card for it... So many things!
I was chatting with my friend J the other day, she asked me that how come I never go shopping with them. All my girl friends go shopping for clothes, shoes or purses almost every weekend. She asked me whether I am saving money for something. Well, I think that's part of the reason, and I prefer shopping for clothes myself most of the time, 'cause I can really take time to look for what I like and try it on. Also, if I go with other girls, I may end up buying something which I don't really like only because other girls think it's good on me or tell me it's worth to buy because it's on big sale ... Anyway, while I was chatting with her, I was thinking, geeeze, girls need a lot more stuff than guys. Girls spend a lot more money on clothes, pretty dress, purses, shoes and cosmetics than guys do, and we also need to buy electronic gadgets like guys need. There are much more places we need to spend money, but we don't get as much pay as guys do. Then J said:” No, it's not true! Guys spend more money than girls! Guys need to pay for girls!!!" Ha, exquisite! But it doesn't apply to me! :P I buy for myself, just need some excuse when I spend money, such as X'mas gift for myself, my Birthday gift, or something like I lost a few pounds -- eating ice cream is a reward. :P
