Things Unsaid

I remmember the day I was given the gift of portable music. It was Christmas ´97, and I got my first discman. The first one to use it was mybrother. He excluded himself from the family reunion to an isolated room where he listened to his Alanis Morisette album, which was his present, in myChristmas present.

Since then, I don´t know what it feels like to be on a moving vehicle and not listen to music. That same discman would go everyday to class with me until early 2005, when I got my first iPod. I remmember when I started taking the city bus to school, I wouldn´t take me iPod with me in the beginning. But then I became a very bitter person. So started taking my iPod with me, even if taking the bus was somewhat dangerous.

Last night, I sync-ed my pictures library to my 80Gb iPod. I never sync my iPod to my libraries, but it was the only way to get my pictures into my iPod. So I did it. I payed much attention to not sync the songs and erase them all. But I guess that didn't work.

This morning, as I say to my dad in the car "I feel like listening to the Foos today", I realised I couldn't find any songs on my iPod. Only pictures! What good will that do?

This is my first big frustation I get from Apple. I'm guessing there are more to come. Oh well.
