Declaration of Love and Musical Enraptures

Hyundai Digital Audio Player Model No. HY-407

At last! I am once again enveloped in pure musical bliss. Just acquired a digital media player or some prefer calling it MP3 player. Didn’t get a chance to post about it online due to those cumbersome mood swings of mine. I guess I gotten it to appease my recent mood lowdown. Bought it with my hard earned bonus though *grinning eye-to-eye*.

Nostalgic Reminiscing of My Heydays Musical Enraptures
Having it brought back many fond nostalgic memories of mine during college days whereby I couldn’t go a step without my trusty walkman by my side. If I recall correctly, it’s an Aiwa Walkman. Though it’s not something high-end but, it’s serviceable and I enjoyed it tremendously plus it's comforting to have it by my side constantly.

I could still remember commuting to and flow the college by means of sardine-packed public buses. Mind you, it wasn’t always pleasant traveling around like this especially when there are almost constant unpleasant encounters with some perverted commuters along the ride. Ok, that’s that and let’s not detour from my original story here. What had I actually wanted to say here is that, that trusty walkman of mine has accompanied me through all the possible unpleasantness and sometimes boring ride throughout town… usually stuck motionless in a traffic jam no less, with the air stifling thick and dusty with the fumes of exhaust emissions with mixtures of body odors and sweats thrown in occasionally. Yuck! Hence I am so very glad and appreciative of having my cassette walkman with me at times especially moments like this to disperse any possible discomfort or boredom. Just depress the ‘Play’ button and shut off all things else – wrapped up in musical bliss and off into a world of my own. Pure bliss.

On with the Current New Love of My Love
Okay. Back to current topic about my newly acquired digital media player. As you can see from the somewhat low quality picture (sorry bout that, you will have to excuse me on this as I don’t have a proper digital camera. This was taken using my mini video camera which also comes with picture taking capability however pathetic the end result is) it is a Hyundai Digital Audio Player Model No. HY-407 (Encoding MP3/MWA/FM). Yes, it also comes with radio reception capability but, I must say I am quite disappointed as to its poor signal reception. Thus, rendering this otherwise could have been another entertaining features useless and redundant much to my chagrin.

What I love best about this slim packed player is that the file transferability is an absolute ease as it employs the usage of USB connectivity within reasonable file transfer speed. Hence, effectively minus the need to install any software into your PC unlike most of the other digital media players which is almost a prerequisite to install some sort of software before we could fully utilize and enjoy the product. Without this limitation and cumbersome requirement, I am free to just Plug & Play this clever device of mine into any PC I want with much ease – just the way I like it... no commitment or strings attached. LOL. This is one of the reasons why I choose this model besides its affordable price tag which conforms with my current dictating budget. Oh yeah, it can also serve as an USB Thumbdrive (Flash Drive) too. Cool isn’t it. Plus, the recording capability wasn’t too bad either. Maybe… just maybe one day I would actually record a short clip of my voice for your active imagination of how Kleio would look like exactly while associating it with the voice clip ;P    LOL.

I had originally wanted to scout for a Sony… one just like this pic on my right. Unfortunately, my allotted budget is just too miniscule to even dream of it. Sigh… Maybe, one fine day then, for now I am just as content with my current acquisition. Though I did wish it has a larger memory than 256MB. I would be utterly delighted if it’s a 1GB instead.

Wrapping Up the Gist
Nevertheless, I had enjoyed this device tremendously and it has never exactly left my side at all from the moment I bought it. I had it with me everyday - I am obsessed with it I guess. Hahaha. Anyhow, it does help to elevate my mood and even motivates me throughout my household chores. Wonderful right. Cause I hate to do household chores. I am not exactly what one would call a wife material? And I know I aren’t one. So what? The point is, I don’t freaking care.

Here’s a little someone I would like to introduce to all. This little fellow has smitten me with its cuteness and uniqueness.

This cute little thingamajig was a souvenir from a dear old friend of mine who has just come back from her Hanoi trip. Thanks Gina… nice choice of color too dear ;)

It’s so charming watching this little fellow perch on the tip my finger balancing with prefect precision. How quaint.

Dear all, please be my guest to visit Gina at her site, Absolut Ginger if you wished to read more about her escapade at Hanoi and ogle at her awesome photography skill (something myself and her hoarders of friends and fans always look forward to after each of her interesting trips).

Yeah, I am plugging her and shamelessly so, for she is one of the reason and the inspiration that motivates me to own a blog of my own. I am sure you would most definitely enjoy her too.

[this is good] Congrats on the new music player! I can certainly share your feelings about having high quality on me all the time! :) And yes - we do wanna hear your voice recording - ASAP! ^^

Very cool that you can just copy mp3's to it and use it as a thumb drive...

I betcha always carry around a music player or at least a handphone with the same capabilities with your obvious passion for music.

*Blush* You really wanna hear that recording? I am so shy. But no promises here. Cause I'll have to sneak a time whereby I'll be totally alone to actually attempt it or else my family might get suspicious :P

Yeah the ease of use of this device is a babe. Love it. Thank you for sharing my joy ;)

[this is good] Yes, always have the lovely 60gb video iPod at hand... I just found software that will let you capture Youtubes and can then watch them on your video iPod! :) Amazing what Google search can find you... The software to capture Youtubes is a free Firefox addon. And there is a free PC player for the .flv format that Youtube uses. To convert to iPod (and a lot of other formats) you have to buy software, but it's a great option! I find so many videos there that I didn't expect to find, and want to keep forever! :)

I'll be sure to download the video of *you* on Youtube when you post it! ;)

You know, I just just thinking that it would be cool if people would upload brief introductions of themselves on VOX... either videos or sound clips... Most digicams can do that now.... and if you can sucessfully upload to VOX, then everyone can see it... No hassles with codecs, and all that... hehe

i love music...music makes my world

I knew it. Knew you would have some cool gadgets like your 60gb video iPod *envy*. It's so cool.

Yeah, I have been downloading some videos from Youtube via an extension add-ons for Firefox called Videodownloader. Not bad. Quite fast and easy to use. Just a click away. I used the VLC portable software to view the downloaded video format. It can open all most all video formats out there. Plus, I don't even have to install the program into my hardrive. I just plug in my thumbdrive and boot up the program. Voila! Cool? *thumbs up*

Ooooh no no no no.... there wouldn't be any videos of me appearing anytime soon if I am supposed to by masquerading under a pseudonym. Tee hee hee. Sorry bout that. I'll consider that voice recording tho ;)

Hmmm.... come to think of it. I think there is a video of mine on my blog some time back. But, of course minus the face ;P
Here's the URL if you can't open it then try this URL instead. Laugh you head off :D

Music does speaks the universal language ;)   Music makes my world too.
