I've finally done it. I ran out of space on my iPod. I knew it was bound to happen soon since I was nearing the max for the past couple of months. Now I'm sad and shit out of luck. I knew as soon as I got my iPod (it was a gift), that it was not nearly enough space for me. I have had it for 2 years now, I think, it's a 30GB.... Small and still cute. I don't know what I would do without it. I love music.

I think the only thing I can do now is either buy a new iPod with more space or delete songs. Thing is I like having variety, and can't choose what songs to let go. I have already deleted duplicates, crappy quality songs.. etc. :( what else??!

Today I was looking online and they are going for $300+ on Ebay for a 160GB.. or more at an Apple store or Best Buy.

Question(s): Anyone know a way where I can choose what songs I put on my iPod?
like, Is there a way to still have all of my music on iTunes.. then just have a selected amount sync'd on my iPod?

OR does anyone know where I can get a discount?

So I don't think we will stay at that hotel as I previously mentioned. There were some pretty bad reviews for it, like paper-thin wall and that it wasn't close to much. So we are still trying to find a cheap hotel on the Strip near to things. I only want one with a pool so I can tan during the day for a bit, and for it to be fairly closer to things. I don't care about the look of the room, just that it's clean.. Argh, it's so hard to choose.

I'm going to the gym everyday I'm off work this week. (Mon, Tues, Wed, Thurs)... I hope I can make it! LOL I left my car in the driveway, so that might motivate myself to go.. other than that, I haven't been there in a week and a half, so I gotta find ways to get myself going again. This trip is making me at least try to go..

I finished reading my "Skinny Bitch" book, it was a laugh and I loved it... I'm gonna try to get back into being a Vegetarian or part-vegan. I know it's not a problem to give up meat, it's dairy that's the problem lol..... It just made me sick thinking of all the crap that's even in good food that we eat. Like all the cancer causing chemicals that go into basically everything, so sick!! =/ Today is day one, so wish me luck! lmao

So my friend Jenny and I are going to Las Vegas in 2 weeks! :) :) I am so excited. This will be the first trip on a plane going far away without family. We got together today and finally decided to stay at The Stratosphere, it was the cheapest and best choice for us LOL. Arriving Sat 19th (April), and leaving either Tues 22nd or Wed 23rd..... It will also only be $555 to go (for 4 nights, $525 for 3 nights) :D This week has been pretty busy. Getting all my passport information, pictures, waiting at the processing office.... etc.. I'm a little scared/stressed about my passport coming in 2 days before the trip. lol But I will try to be positive and hope for the best. The lady didn't seem concerned at all about it. I tried to pay the extra $30 and get it faster, but they needed the flight information and papers to do that (if I would've knew that beforehand, I would've booked it before). Oh well. It should be good times! :D

I'm also waiting for my income tax return to come in. I get nearly $800 back! I hope it comes before the trip or else I wont really have the money for anything. =/ *crosses fingers* We definitely will be lying around the pool and shopping for most of our days there and partying in 'Sin City' at night.. oh fuck I can't wait!!!!

I really wish I knew how to play cards though. Can someone teach me the basics and etiquette for gambling at the tables? I know nothing. :-P Are there any online websites which will teach you for free? anyone let me know! I will be forever grateful.

I've been going to the gym 2-3 times a week for 3 hours at a time since the beginning of Feb... But I don't seem to have any results yet.
I kinda love going, which is really surprising, lol.. but I want results. It's making me frustrated. LOL

My usual routine varies from day to day. I do the elliptical for 5 minutes first, to get my heart rate up.. then I hit the weight machines. Go to mostly all of them.. lol Do that for about an hour or two, then I get on the bike for 1 full hour (+ 5 mins). If I have time left I just do random weight machines or finish more of the bike.

It does get me really tired after, and achy (the next day I feel it).. but I need more. I'd hate to deprive myself of food, because I LOVE food sooo much. But I think that might be the only way I could even lose weight...

The last time I lost a bunch of weight was the time I was so unhappy I wouldn't eat and if I did it was very little... And I ate salads. I might need to adjust my eating habits. I just don't really know how to give up what I love.. lol!!

I need to kick myself lol... Oh I was also wondering if anyone knows any supplements or diet-type pills that will help weight loss and boost my metabolism ??

I use to only put updates as "friends & family" only, but since this feature to also post on LJ happened.. I'm thinking I might just post public more often. heh, though I don't know if I even still have 'friends' on live journal anymore.. oh well

Been off for the past 5 days, playing my wii, listening to music, cleaning my room.. etc ya know house stuff. I'm pissed at my wifi.. it doesn't work with my wii. :( boooo. I don't know why it just wont detect it.. arghh.. so right now I have to go off my neighbours wireless to get new 'virtual console' games, and new channels. Sometimes it works to find a connection. I think I might get the nintendo wifi usb thingy and see if that will work. I hope it will.

Saw Ghost Rider on Tuesday, it was alright. Fantasy isn't really my kind of movie, but it was entertaining.

Next weekend I'm going to New York City!!! yay yay yay yay
Going with Derek, Uri and Pam.
Driving there.. ughh.. which shouldnt be fun.. i think it's like 12 hours away :|

We're staying at the Marriott on west street :D
hehe. getting there friday march 2nd and leaving the sunday..

anyone have any suggestions for shopping, where to buy knock-offs, nightlife and restaurants????

eeeeee

Does anyone know how to hook up a PS2 to the video inputs on a computer. I have a HP Media Center edition computer, and there are 2 sets of inputs, those 3 (yellow,red,white).... I hooked up my playstation 2 to them, but they don't detect. I'm thinking I need a program to view them. I'm not sure how to switch to view them. I know they do work because I saw them in 'windows movie maker'..

:( anyone know??? or know a program that I can use to view the PS2??

Woo hoo, wow this site is pretty! I love it already even though I have no idea how to use this thing. I wonder if this site is going to take over live journal. Because I think already it looks better.. So much more you can do on here. Coool
