I've been wanting this for quite some time, and I finally convinced my dad to let me get it. Smile

Only problem, it keeps saying it 'Failed to launch' when I try to update it, and goes to a white screen when I click no.

Check your graphics card & internet connection. If not, just troubleshoot via Google &/ or YouTube.

And I just bought a 32 GB (gotta have space for Beyblade & GUndam :3)... iPad3!!!!

This is what sold me:

Usefullness in School and Store
The speech-to-text feature (I CAN COMMAND IT TO PUT A PERIOD!!!! yayz)
The Retina Display, which if you don't know what is, is basically more HD than your HDTV. Yes. Even YOURS.
Sonic "Laughing" All-Star t-shirt..



What is wrong with my life? I was compelled to buy it..
Vibram FiveFingers KomodoSport! Unfortunately they didn't sell the vibrant yellow ones, but I got the black and good ones which look very nice.

They feel so cool! They don't actually feel like there's an object between your toes, I had socks with toes and the shoes feel more comfortable. It actually does feel like I'm barefoot.

I only used them in the store and on the way home, but they felt nice and I'm excited to use them more!
Wow Shab, just, wow. People in my school have those, lol. They testify the same as you do. Great purchase!

Wow, those are extremely nice, Shab!
Very nice purchase!
Just yesterday I was watching a documentary on sneakers where they say that the main objective of Sneakers is to make you feel that you are barefoot.
And this one does it for you!
I wore them all day today, no foot fatigue or anything that some people feel when they first try them. I do enjoy going outside barefoot, so these are nice because I won't step on a bee like last summer, haha.

Yeah, it's mostly about how your foot hits the ground. I've been reading some of the biomechanics of running, and it's pretty cool. Basically, when we run, we're supposed to hit the ground with our toes first, in the centre of our body. The shoes we are accustomed to have such huge heels that we end up hitting heel first, which causes ankle stress, knee stress, which in turn, causes back stress. These have an even amount of cushion, in the places our foot actually use their own cushion, so your whole body feels it in a proper way. Today I felt different muscles in my back supporting me, and it just felt right.

So yeah, thanks guys!
Mega Man X8 and Soul Caliber 3. Day = Made. ^^

I read the same thing, haha!
Somewhere on the same page, it says that while running, the force applied is equal to 7 times our own body weight! Then it continues with what you said. Wink
But well, of course you would know all this... Come on, you are the WBO's health consultant! *coughcoughgeneralhealththreadcoughcough*
Big Bang Pegasis 105RF Gold Winged Version

Price:$39.95 CDN = tax (so around $45 CDN)
Where I bought it: Toys on Fire Ottawa

Nah, I didn't know that we land with 7 times our body weight. But I do know that our feet are naturally supposed to flex and reduce the impact!
Today, I bought a blue Duncan Butterfly yo-yo, nothing too special.
I bought a 200 magic card deck, pulled some good stuff. I also bought the skylanders double trouble and chop chop.
I got Final Fantasy XIII-2 but haven't played it yet, so it's NIB.
Picture:
EDIT: Picture was taken on my iPod, so excuse the quality.
I recently received 'Kindle'. It may not count as a purchase, but a gift...
It is really fascinating but, due to absence of a WiFi connection here, its rendered useless for now... Unhappy

- Oh, so maybe I read something else. :p
Enjoy your new purchase, though!
I bought this USB network adapter for my computer. My computer wasn't able to connect to the internet via WiFi then, so I bought this baby Smile

I'm actually using it right now! I'll post pics if I got the time to do it XD
was heading down to a meeting and picked my self up ANOTHER car, got my self a classic 71 Dodge Challenger, not only another car but another challenger.........and all i was really after was a Ford Fastback mustang, but this is 100x better

i have yet to figure out how to get this thing home from CA, to WA, i would drive it if its not raining all the darn time Uncertain. but the oddest part of all was the phone call to my parents telling them i baught another car.........thankfully they didnt beat me LOL


this is about the only thread i know too well!
VERY sleek! I like it!
Haha, if I just went out and bought a car, I would be beaten so badly lol.
Ok, so a list then pics.
Muppets 2 Kermit Vinylmation
Park 5 Retro Disneyland Vinylmation
Oh Mickey Vinylmation
Bakery Mickey Vinylmation
Nightmare Before Christmas Vinylmation

Pic time
- Nintendo 3DS (Flame Red)
- Mario Kart 7
- Resident Evil: Revelations

Finally bit the bullet and bought a 3DS. It's kind of weird thinking that it's been almost six years since I bought my DS Lite haha. Seeing RE: Revelations in action recently sort of put me over the top, and seeing the price in combination with the $20 mail-in rebate they were offering at Toys R Us sealed the deal. I considered buying a PlayStation Vita, but it simply costs too much right now for me to justify the purchase, and there aren't as many games out for it yet that I'm interested in.
Hunger Games tickets for the midnight premiere! Grin It's gonna be awesome, I can tell.
A new portable DVD player. I believe the brand is Phillips, and $60, the cheapest one we could find. The reason I only wanted a cheap one was because the one I used for my exercise DVd's wasn't working properly, do I didn't need an expensive one.

A $300 P90X2 purchase coming up next month for my birthday, not sure how much of it I'm paying and how much my parents are. It'll be my last purchase for a while though.
Uhh... yea...

I should have more tomorrow...
Today, I've bought a Redakai structured deck, particularly of Team Radikor, which came with an exclusive Cyonis - Wind Elemental card.
