This is meant for the iPod and MP3 fanatics. The ones who love the comfort of their own mind and ears, and the ones who rock to their own beat while the world outside seems to wash away. Music plays an essential role in our everyday lives, whether you own and iPod or not. When we are stressed, we feel relaxed, and when we are full of sadness, we are instantly gleeful (pop culture reverence). Music is the distinct language that cures the disease we all seem to catch: troubled times and bad days.

The beats, the tempo, the lyrics. All of these obviously play vital roles in what makes ... well, a song. Music is the prominent communication known to all and it is understood around the world. But for most people, music is personal and has a deeper meaning to us. This is why the iPod and MP3 is rather dominate in the circle of technology. Once those two headphones are tucked in to your ears, it's like the world just faded away and  transported you to a state of tranquility. As the sweet refrains flow through your imagination,  a blank canvas becomes filled with images full of light while some are full of darkness. No matter what genre, what song, or what  band or artists is singing, they get to you and your deepest emotions and dreams.

Now, for me, living with a 1 GB iPod nano from 2005 is a challenge. But nonetheless it saves me from stress and bad days. To and from school, to and from the city, or to and from anywhere, if I didn't have my iPod I would be stuck listening to and sharing songs on the radio with my family. Don't get me wrong I SOMETIMES like listening to the radio, but as I said, theres something about having your own mind and sound to yourself that makes music better.

 I will "La Di Da Di Doo" to my own beat. Plug in the music!
