16 gb apple iPod touch

well, as a result of passing the exam (see post below), my company will furnish a free 16gb apple iPod touch.  they were offering it to the employees as an incentive to take and pass the examination. i'll be honest in that i had been planning to take the examination since the summer of 2007 (last year). but as things drag on in daily excursions, somehow my feeling of urgency to take the test dwindled. that brings us to october 2008 - one day our company president sent an e-mail indicating such an incentive. i thought, wow what a great time to register!!! (: so i registered, studied, and passed.  *this doesn't describe the 3 weeks of 'hell' preparing for it but i'm happy*

the iPod is somewhat symbolic in that our company owners are very technology oriented. they gave every employee a 4gb apple iPod nano last year for their appreciation of our hard work. another key note that ties into the story is that the manufacturing of the iPod has incorporated many green features for environmental responsibility. so there you have it!
