I've changed my mind on a few things

1. iPods, specifically the iPod Nano.

I went to the Apple store with BGS recently after stuffing ourselves with sushi at lunch and walking around the mall a little bit. We were playing around with iPod Nanos, and I guess I'm starting to see what they hype is about iPods. I mean, no offense, but it's just another fancy tool that I think I'm familiar with enough to still say with validity that it's never really impressed me. On a separate level, I've never been a fan of people who close themselves off from the world by always having their headphones on everywhere we go. How do you approach someone with headphones? I heard a friend of a friend ranting at a Pistons party awhile back about how he sort of met this cool girl at the gym but avoided talking to her as much as he wanted because she always seemed focused listening to her music and didn't want to ask her to remove her headphones just so he could say hi.

2. Raw red onions in sandwiches.

Asians don't eat uncooked vegetables. Maybe with new-age/Westernized foods they'll try to, but for the most part, I haven't been a fan of raw veggies until I recently discovered raw carrots, raw broccoli, and raw cauliflower dunked in Marzetti's ranch veggie dip. Anyway, I was feeling adventurous last week at Subway and decided to order a sandwich with raw red onions on it (which I've always thought the taste was terrible). Turns out, I really like it now except for the fact that no matter what you eat, your breath will smell like onions for the rest of the day. I guess it's a risk I'm willing to take now that I really enjoy having onions in my burgers, sandwiches, and salads.

3. How a relationship is defined.

This isn't something I've turned 180 about, but... since I'm seeing someone new, this is a revisited, much redefined, and re-evaluated idea for me. All I can say is, I can't believe I was okay with not feeling like this before in past relationships!
