The Train Brain: Ipods know

i always listen to my ipod on the train and today my ipod knew something was deferent.

"5 songs came on in a row they were: Good Day, Crazy beautiful life, living la vida loca, get this party started and the weekend. made my day perfect."

i found myself smiling over these songs and their lyrics. how did my ipod know that today was a great day for me?? i love when ironic things happen to me. i don't know if there is some great being telling my ipod to play these songs or it it was just coincidence. granted i did add the songs onto my ipod but for them to all come up in that order. there was truly something magical about today. is it because today completed my freshman year? well whatever the reason is i am glad that the semester is coming to a close 4 finals stand in the stand in the way of me and my summer of craziness. so lets have a "Good day" and "Get this party started"!!!!! summer 2011 here i come!!

Thank God For Ebay


Ebay is the best site ever created! I have recently gone into the hobby of fixing broken ipods, iphones, and cell phones simply because my friends keep breaking them. I figured that if i could learn how to fix them, i could make some money on the side and it will be good experience to know incase mine break. Well, I recently just cracked the back glass on my iphone 4 (i was soo pissed) and i wanted to learn how to fix it. With the help of some blogs and tutorials on youtube, i learned how to replace them with ease. The problem ended up being getting the replacement parts. Since apple doesnt want you to replace the parts yourself, you cannot go directly through the company and get them. Rather, you can go on Ebay and these small companies manufacture parts that are identical to the apple parts. After some serching, I found an excelent company that makes these parts for almost every electronic device out there.

Well your probably saying "Those parts are really cheep and probably break easily" because thats what i thought. Ive now had my ipod with the replacement part in for alomst a year now and its still running perfect. It just goes to show you that if you can get a LCD screen for a brand new iphone on ebay for $50, think about how cheep apple would be able to fix it for. Im glad we have ebay for this kind of stuff becuase without it, i would never be able to do this type of repair service.

Attached is a picture of my broken iphone 4 case along with my friends broken screen off of his brand new ipod nano.
