My Old iPod

When I was in middle school, I was best friends with the most popular girl in school. She had one of the first pink iPods when it came out, and I wanted the exact same one. Unfortunately, I wouldn't get mine until a few years later when they didn't even make that kind anymore, so I ended up getting an iPod nano (2007).
Mine was the pink one of coarse, though there was much debate about whether I wanted the blue or pink. Anyhow, I thought this device was the coolest thing EVER. I listened to it every day on the bus rides to and from school, I listened to it in the computer lab when we were allowed to, and I listened to it in gym class when we had "free days." I even got this super girly all glitter case for it. It had the best songs- I thought- at the time. Every Glee soundtrack, Niki Minaj's second album, and even a few- I hate to say it- Justin Bieber songs. This little thing was my life. Until...One Christmas where I begged my mother for a $300 iPod touch. That was the end of an era and the beginning of another.

But this blog isn't about my iPod touch, because that stopped working awhile ago. I never kept track of my old iPod nano, but one day I saw on "the bookshelf of things people don't want" that we have in our house there was an old iHome for the old iPods and iPhones with the iPhone 4 and 4s port. You know, the really wide one. My iPhone is the 5 so I didn't think much of the old iHome, until I opened my desk drawer to see my old iPod nano.

This all happened about three days ago. Obviously I plugged the nano into the iHome and jammed out to some old tunes in my room. I laughed so hard at some of the songs I had on there. Some even from American Idol (I don't even remember liking American Idol.) I even texted the lyrics of "Best I Ever Had" by Drake to my boyfriend and he had no idea what I was talking about. Listening to that old iPod was really cool and I can't wait to explore it even more.
