The minute I saw the square box sitting under the christmas tree, i just knew it was the present I have been waiting for. Christmas day was like waiting for the turtle to cross the finish line in the book; The Hare and the Tortise. Christmas morning, bright and early, mum handed me the present. I snatched it and un-wrapped it with excitement. Finally, I have my ipod.

Long walks, girl time by your self, music playing, chatting to your mates, looking through old photo's. The most valuable item I have at the moment,is my ipod. My ipod is somehing i couldnt live without> Music is my life. Socialising with friends also takes up a big part in my life. Ever since i was little I have been around music. I find it fascinating how a song can express a real life exspirience.

Mum first showed interest when she first came across it walking through nana's house. The antique box is originated from scottland. My nana's dad is from scottland which is where she got it from. Nana went on a trip to scottland and brought it over there. Nana and mum are the only people who have had this antique box, but they wont be the last.
