I have one thing to say for this post.

Dee, thank you so much for getting me the armor casing for my Zen Micro.

As a clumsy person I am, yes…I have dropped my Zen Micro…twice. But was it ever scratched or damaged? Heck no. I mean…come on. We're talking die-cast aluminium here. The only thing I really should be worried about is what the impact can really do to the microdrive on my Zen. Aside from that. Really…there is absolutely nothing I should worry about.

Which worries me.

I have come to rely a lot on the music that I plug into my ear almost 24 hours a day. I mean, there isn't a day that goes by that I don't go without it. I listen to it when I'm in my room, I listen to it when I'm cooking. I listen to it on my way to places. I listen to it when I'm having breaks in class. I listen to it when I'm doing my experiments in the lab.

Yes…I listen to it in the toilet.

I swear…if this thing was waterproof. I would be listening to it in the shower. That shows how much I'm attached to the songs that keep my mind afloat…because I seriously dread to imagine what would happen should I be without my songs.

That happened more than once.

It never is pretty.

But still, with my brand new Zen and the armor casing that encases it. I can rest safely being assured for the fact that I can bring my Zen everywhere without worrying about its physical safety. After all, to me. Music is life.

Music is the food for the soul.

Music keeps the voices away.

I guess that matters more than anything else in the world.
