Zune update

Posted by: rasilla on: July 7, 2008

So my brother left for DR missions on Saturday. And along with him, went my Zune.
So it sucks to be me, cause I wanted to participate in the Zune Sniper Challenge and take some pics with people with my Zune. (The things we will do to win free stuff! LoL)

Anyway on the plus side, when they are back, I’m gonna try and get most of the team (30 some people) to do the survey on Chatthreads for me.

Oh so heres the deal.

I have no more cards.

Yup. Zip.

But when I asked a few of my friends, they were like, “Oh, that thing…Right. I’ll do it.” But really it becomes a tad bit of a hassle. My friend was telling me that there were a lot of questions that they asked. And she got annoyed half way in. But she said that she finished it cause of me. Awww…

Okay, so I was reading around, and apparently the older Zune’s weren’t Unicoded? Cause they could play titles of different languages. Unfortunately, the current Zune, is unicoded, so I have all these boxes, and weird characters representing my song titles and artists.

Anyway my brother took the Zune, with his Sennheiser headphones. He loves those headphones, and they do make things much nicer with the Zune. And the fact that he even took the Zune in the first place, (seeing as he was dead set against it, and so I didn’t nominate him for the free Zune.) I think the Zune, especially cause of some of the things that it lacks, does takes some time to warm up to. Especially for those, like my brother, who were set against it to start off with.

Just to note. He is much more techy then I am, but had problems making his way around the program on my laptop as well. Though he does like that the radio plays the current song title. Oh I forgot to mention that before! So I’m one of those people, who doesn’t really have a certain type of music that she loves. I’m not very main stream, and as long as it sounds great, catchy, then I will like it. Which works great for me, cause I tend to kill music quite quickly. (I get bored easily, I can’t help it.) So I hate having to memorize what time it is, and what station I’m listening to, just so that when I get home, I can search it on the radio station’s website for the song.

SO, the fact that it plays the song title, (when available) is quite cool. I will only have to remember to carry around a pen with me, so that I can write it down^^

I’m having trouble finding something to store my Zune in while I carry it around with me. I currently put it in this drawstring character bag. But it so isn’t classy! Lol. Which is why I hope to take some pics and win one :)

Poor Poor student girl…
Sigh.
Oh a new note. I am working this camp job again. One that I have worked with for a few years now. So I won’t have to worry about bus fees during the school year. Of course I don’t have to pay as much anymore, seeing as UTM now makes us pay $80, and we get to ride the Sauga transit for the year. But I still need money for the TTC fares that I will rack up.

Sigh.
