I cannot justify an Ipod.

I had a wonderful easter weekend, I must say. A group of 14 of us went up to a condo in Silverthorne for an easter retreat and it was an absolute blast, not to mention very uplifting. One thing I noticed on the drive up there and back was just how many people have ipods and how very cool they are. In fact, it has rekindled my want for one. The thing is, I have the same problem that I did last time I really wanted one and oddly enough, it's not about money. Or rather, it's not about a lack of money. I have enough in my bank account where I could go and get one right now. Or I could ask for one for my birthday, or could have done so for last christmas, but I won't. I simply am unable to truly justify ever getting one. How much it costs is a part of that, but the truth is, I am separated from everyone enough as it is. I absolutely hate walking across campus and having half the people I walk past be completely in there own little musical world. I despise it and I'd rather not be a hypocrite in the matter. Still...
