Rargh... I wasn't planning on not updated yesterday, but I didn't realize that I wasn't going to get home until about 1 in the morning. I went to a concert. Actually, I was invited to a concert. I think it's the first time I've been asked on a date. I personally love the fact that I know a girl who is willing to ask out a guy on a date, rather than waiting for the guy to ask her out. Well... I did ask her out first, but I'm not one for waiting and watching and subtlety. I tend to just go out and do stuff. I do observe, but only when I don't have anything to actively accomplish.
The concert I went to featured a band named Ludo. There were other bands there too, but they aren't the ones that we went for. The band is really awesome, and all of its members are pretty cool dudes. (Resisting the urge to meme all over that sentence(That's what she said?). Okay, back to maturity.) The band members all came out after the show and talked to their fans. I was really surprised cause the singer acted like a douche on stage, but then was completely not a douche when talking to his fans. I guess he just has a stage presence that he kind of makes up. It isn't surprising that he does this. It just didn't register to me that he did.
Rargh. All this talk of bands makes me want to have music, but I think it would be pointless without a music player. I still want an Archos 5. On top of that, I would like a pair of Grado's SR60i with which to listen to my Archos 5. Most of Grado's products are wood paneled, which would make me feel awesome, but I recognize that the money I'd have to put into that wouldn't be worth it. The money I would put into a pair of SR60i would be worth it. They look awesome, and I've heard that they sound awesome too. I really have this strong urge to buy them. I've only heard good reviews.
One thing that really shouldn't factor into headphones buying but does is aesthetics. I know a lot of people find skullcandy headphones to look pretty and sound great. I really don't agree with the looking pretty part. The sounding great part, I can't rightly say since I haven't listened to them. Then again, I haven't listened to a pair of SR60i either. All I'm going on hear is reviews. I guess for the 30$ price point skullcandy has, it isn't a bad set of phones. Still, I have to believe that the 80$ cost for the Grado cans gives at least 50$ more worth of quality. Well, I don't have to, but I want to. It would make me feel better in justifying an 80$ purchase. Still, I need a music player before I can even begin to justify more money spending. I already have a headset for my computer. Getting headphones on top of that would seem just... stupid to me. Also, my headset is a nice pair of 60$ turtle beach cans with an adjustable mic boom and active noise canceling. This makes games much better. For music, I don't want to block out the world. I like the idea of still being able to hear friends while listening to my music. I feel differently about games. When I play games, I really want nothing to distract me. Games are important to me. Perhaps they are more important than they should be.
In summary, I need music, but I need a music player to justify music. I need cans, but I'd need a music player to justify those too. However, the music player I'm looking at is too expensive to justify. Therefore, I have to wait for a large sum of money to randomly come my way so that I can buy all 3 of these things. Then I can be the snooty hipster that I've always wanted to be (/sarcasm). Then I'd be less bored walking between classes or in other forms of transition between locations. Also, this summary is getting too long so... by for now.
