It hasn't even been a month since I got it, and already I've wrecked it. I dropped my brand new ipod chromatic and now it has a scratch along the bottom.

Well it didn't take me long to stuff up that present. I wonder how long it will take for me to stuff up this laptop too...

To most people, one tiny mark wouldn't matter. To any normal person, it wouldn't have matter. But for me, I can't even manage to look at it, and I feel like I'm going to have a meltdown.
I hate myself. It hasn't been a month since I got it, and already I've wrecked it.

I love my new ipod. Its nice and small and shiny and red. I liked having a new ipod, an undamaged ipod. And already I've destroyed it. To most people it wouldn't matter, a small scratch at the bottom. But I was looking so forward to having an ipod that wasn't scratched and damaged. I was going to keep this one safe.

And in less than a month, I managed to wreck it. My nice new shiny ipod. Here I am, sobbing uncontrollably and hating myself for it, because I just had to damage it. It wasn't just old ipod, it was my ipod...It was one that was inscribed on the back for me. It was most special ipod that ever existed. It wasn't just any old one you could buy in the shops.

And in 7 seconds I destroyed it. And how I hate myself for it.

You guys must be laughing your ass off right now.

When I drop my iPod or get a small scratch/dent in it, I don't mind. It's still MY iPod and it's still very special to me. In fact I think it just gives my iPod more personality.

My last iPod, I managed to crack the screen and half the paint was off from it being chipped. I thought it looked neat though. I nicknamed it "Scar". My current iPod, it has a few dents in it and two scratches on the screen.

Your iPod isn't "damanged", it'll all be okay.

nope, not me. if you take it to an Apple store they could probably fix the scratch(i've had to do that before)

hope you feel better

I don't have an ipod, but I'm pretty sure they sell little snap on covers for them everywhere. How about you just put a cover on it?

I know what you mean though. Why it at always the things we care most about and try to really take care of that always end up damaged?
