Ok, so today is my birthday, I am turning 24 even though I look like 18, but anyways. I had asked for my birthday a blue ipod shuffle, only because I wanted to use when I go to the gym so I can listen to PJ and I didnt want something big.
So, my sister FINALLY paid attention to my needs, which she never does, and last night not only she gave me the ipod, but she also engraved "theres no need 2 hide we r safe 2nite" which are the lyrics of I AM MINE!!!
OMG, I was so HAPPY, she gave me what I wanted and it was also PJ related, I got 2 for 1 that really made my day!!!

    That's great. It's funny how those engravings add so much to the present itself. I got a red shuffle for my son for Christmas, and I had engraved: "go Red Sox - Leo". He looooved it :)

    Happy birthday :)
    ... and the will to show I will always be better than before.

    Just out of curiosity, where do you take an ipod to get engraved? Jewelry store?

    I was planning on getting my wife one for mothers day and wanted to engrave it.

    If you order it online at apple.com they do it fast and for free :)

    Thank you everyone for all the wishes!!! I really appreciate.
    When she gave it to me, she was telling me how she was looking up Eddie Vedder quotes, and she tried a couple ones but it didn't fit in the spaces, and I was just like I can't believe she will even think of that!!! I was amazed!
    My sister is definitively getting some extra points in my book, specially since we haven't been really close in the past few years!!!
