Love At First Sight

i recently purchased my first iphone (3G no less) and now that i have experienced the wonders of it firsthand, i have no idea how i survived this long without one. most of my close guy friends bought their iphone when it first came out and seeing how they have always been up to date on the latest in gadgets im used to just automatically tuning them out whenever "tech speak" enter the conversation. but when i learned that the newest iphone would have gps i knew immediately that i must own one of these. next came months of waiting for my verizon contract to end and as soon as it did on 9/10, you can bet i was at the apple store the very next day to get one. and to my luck, my twin happened to be in town visiting as for something of this importance, i dared not go it alone. besides who else was going to help me pick out the perfect case for my iphone? not jon thats for sure...it turned out to be louis! he swooped in and saved the day. ha

but in all seriousness, this iphone is amazing. and mine is looking very sleek and pretty with my white case that once you see it, you will want to run out and buy one. really, everyone should get one. you dont even know what your missing out on until you have owned one of these things. i feel quite invinsible with my trusty iphone in my purse. are you lost or want to know when the next muni bus is coming? done. feel like eating a burrito but have no idea where to go? done. want to look up the difference between a midget and a dwarf? done. everything is at the reach of my fingertips.

never before have i been part of the cool tech club but now im included on email threads with the "boys" and while most of it is me asking questions, this will surely elevate our friendships to another level. i can sense it already. my twin was even nice enough to set up everything for me while i slept including downloading all the apps i could possibly want and color coordinating them no less. he even introduced me to this new app called loopt which i have been addicted to ever since.

it basically allows you to "see" where your friends are at all times. sound scary? well of course it is but as long as you only have your close friends on there and dont be stupid enough to add any work folks or gasp your significant other (for who knows what type of trouble you could get into ha) this could be the next best thing ever. loopt shows you on a map where your friends are located and allows them to update and post different pictures of what they are doing throughout the day. a mobile moblog if you will. im probably not describing it properly but trust me on this, you too will be addicted to no end. i find myself updating it all the time (havent you always wanted to know that i saw a deer take a shit?) and just the other day, i was able to tell that ameer was only a couple blocks away and quickly sent a text to see if he wanted to meet up. see the power of this thing for happy hours and get togethers?

it hasnt even been a week of me owning this thing and already im on cloud nine and in love. i still have so many more apps to play with and as soon as victor fixes the bubble on my film screen it will be the perfect iphone and everyone else can look on green with envy.
