i dropped my nano today...

[espanoliPod]

so it was homeroom this morning, and they were doing the announcements. as usual they started out first thing with the pledge. so i stand up, and i don't know how it happened, but as i stood up, my nano fell out of my left pocket, dropped about 3 1/2 feet, and landed on its back on the floor. my first, immediate thought was 'ok, no big deal, i have the plastic covers on the back.' and i was right, at least, about that. the iPod was fine, no damage, scratches, nothing. but then, when it hit the floor, the kid across from me said, 'OH S***! that's the new nano!' (right in the middle of the pledge, loud enough for everyone to hear. lol.) that immediately got everyone's attention, and word spread quickly that i have the new iPod. i probably had close to 75 people ask me about it today so i just told them it was in my locker; it was really in my pocket, as always, i just didn't want to have to deal with showing it to everybody and risk having something happen to it. i guess i can't bring my iPod to school anymore because now everyone knows i have it so i have a high risk of having it stolen. oh well. at least i know its durable

lol, but uh, how can it get stolen if it's in your pocket?

You can get robbed while walking through the school.

exactly, i can defend myself and i don't have problems or anything, but i'm on the smaller side, i'm only about 5'7. there are a lot of bigger kids in my high school, so i don't want to risk anything.

I bring my iPod to school every day. Everyone knows though. Nearly everyone in my school has an iPod. But I make sure my iPod is safe. I keep it behind all my books etc. in my school bag. And when I'm listening to it (usually just on the walk to and from school) it's in my pocket. E
spanoliPod , you consider 5'7 small?
I'm 5'7 and I thought I was kinda tall Lol

hahaha, im only 5. 4 - 6 i haven't measured myself recently.

 

[HAL99]

Ha! I'm 6 ft. 2 1/2.....And you guys think you're tall.

Anyway, I've only ever been worried about getting my brand new iPhone ripped off, but not when it's in my pocket. No one will mess with me I think...and if someone took my phone I'd beat they're ###.

haha, well when there are soccer, football, and basketball players in your school who tower over you at over 6 feet (some are as tall as 6'6, there's even one kid who's 6'11) you can feel kind of short at 5'7. I love how this got really off topic and shifted to a discussion about height lol

A good reason to purchase the cheap shuffle...for theft..If I were in high school still I'd never bring my nano or video to school.
