Okay, so maybe I'm exaggerating my stance on apple products a little.. What I harbored for apple products up until this point had (I think) been incited by the wrath of teenaged jealousy, knowing that I would never EVER be able to afford that shiny new macbook or ipod touch I was turning green over. A lot of kids would get that kind of stuff for Christmas or birthdays but, not me. I was technologically deprived. 2007, with nothing but a cd player for music and an outdated 30 inch tv in my living room. I had a gamecube and a nintendo 64 in my house for gaming, and some compaq computer from mid 2003 in the family room for internet and schoolwork. I didn't have a cell phone until that Christmas. I was inept and deficient with technology and understandably so- it wasn't like I had a lot of access to them!
Now I'm the ripe ol' age of 20, out in the world, out on my own, and things have changed.
I still remember the feeling of my first ipod in my hands, it was like the last bit of gold in the ravaged midwest. My heart would race everytime my eyes met my reflection in the back of this little square, 4th generation ipod nano that played Feist's catchy music video in the commercial. It was smooth, cold, durable, and precious. My boyfriend took me to a WalMart and got it for me one night as a gift. I bought a little 3 pack of silicon covers to protect it. This was my first apple experience, and it's a shiny, gold plated one for me.
More recently as a GROWN ADULT with financial aid and a better grasp on finances, I can buy whatever I want as long is it aligns well with my budgetary limits, right?

Anyway, this post is the announcement of my upcoming reviews which should be up on YouTube in the following weeks. My blog will host my detailed analysis of the products I review.
