I Finally Got One!
MP3 players - Almost everyone has an MP3 player and I’ve been wanting one since I arrived here. I badly needed one especially when I was working in Kobe. The 4-hour travel to and from work was so boring. But I have priorities so I was just contented visiting the electronics store and try out the samples.
Recently, our manager held this writing contest, in Japanese! I intended not to join but it was a bit embarrassing after he extended the deadline, and I’m glad I joined! Of course, I didn’t get one of the top awards but among the rest, I received gift certificates as a consolation prize that was almost enough to buy the cheapest MP3 player I could find.
I really wish to have an iPod Touch but right now, I’m more than contented to have a Creative Zen MP3 player:
Features:
Memory: 2 GB
File Format: MP3, WMA
Interface: USB 2.0
Dimension: 53.7×35.6×16 mm
Battery: Rechargeable, lasts for 20 hours if fully-charged
Special Feature: Built-in speaker
Now, the 20-minute walk to the station is no longer boring!

Congratz on getting one! Looks like a nice mp3 player.

Good choice - I have the 1 GB version of your MP3 player. I’m very happy with it. I replaced the original headphones though, as I found the ones supplied with it a bit uncomfortable to wear.

@kljs
I wouldn’t have bought one if not for the gift cards.
Train ride is no longer boring
@siani
I was weighing between iPod shuffle and creative. But I guess creative has the same features for a lower price.
I agree.. the headphones are not that good. But it had made a lot of difference. It sort of lessens my stress from work.
@elaine

@rollchan
haha! I wish I could buy an iPod! But it’s beyond my budget… so I’ll just make the most of my creative.
