You know how crazy one gets when Apple launches some device into the market, or when XBOX releases some game which was the talk of town, even before it was declared within Microsoft. Well, I try to stay away from all this, coz waiting a week or so after the launch to get a glimpse of the new hotcake in the market wont make much of a difference to me, when I can easily walk into the store and check it out with ease.
But yes, it happened so that I was actually waiting for the PSP to release. Not that it was something new in the markets, but yes, PSP's slimmer version was to hit the markets in Sep 2007. Ever since I played the older version, I wanted to buy it. But the news of the slim version releasing would make it all the more difficult for me to buy the older model. This was sometime in July, so 2 months seemed a loooooooooooong time for me.
On 10th September, with my eyes barely open, I got ready with my slippers on and got a drop to the nearest Fry's store. Like a kid in Legoland, I ran around to see where the launch was taking place. To my glee, they were lying right in the middle of the store and several pieces were kept there. Like a typical desi, I picked the one hid right inside the pile, checked the pack here and there to see I picked the perfect one and with a big smile on my face walked to the counter, paid some 220 odd bucks for it (which seemed like buying a gallon of milk from a 7/11 store) and rushed back home.
Opening it, and playing with it rightaway felt like receiving a toy I would crave for months and finally get it on my birthday! I love it so much :)
PS: Gone are those looooooooooong boring times in the restroom :D

also happening with this paragraph which I am reading at this place.

The other day, while I was at work, my sister stole my
apple ipad and tested to see if it can survive a twenty five foot drop,
just so she can be a youtube sensation. My iPad is
now broken and she has 83 views. I know this is entirely off topic but
I had to share it with someone!
