"Life is all about choices. It's a maze you have to walk through. The path we choose will decide our fate, our destiny, our very identity. Once you choose a path, you have to walk it. There is no turning back. I find myself now at the darkest part of the maze. Everyday is just another day for me."

an old friend returns...

Last week, I met an old friend who I haven't seen in months. Haven't heard from for longer. When I saw her, I wondered why we ever lost touch. I missed listening to her.

This story begins with me cleaning out my room last week. I was just pondering over the mystery of how junk in a closet can defy the law of conservation of mass as I picked up a couple of my t-shirts and dumped them out. And there she was - my brand new (when bought) iPod Nano (black, of course - with a six month coating of dust brown)!

It's been a long time since I've used the iPod... quite some time. In fact - I can't remember the last time. After landing in the US, my use has been minimal. Maybe for a couple of trips way back in June perhaps, and then I don't remember when I stashed her in the closet.

Now that she's back, I have to find some time for her. I think I'll join the gym, so that I can show her off proudly while running on the treadmill (unless the guy next to me is wearing an iPod touch). But ah, he will never know. The new fancy-schmancy iPods will never have the heart and soul of my classic iPod. Mental note: Despite all that, be very selective in choosing my treadmills.

Now, Sunday is movie day. I've started downloading and watching movies by the dozen - right here at home on a 42" Plasma TV, and Philips home theatre system. Yes, the iPod is probably jealous. Now that I think of it... is that why I lost touch with her?
