DVD PLAYER DRAMA!!!
Yes thats right, I said drama. During boxing day, I bought a DVD player (yes I know I am the last person on earth to get one). Anyways, I also bought some DVD's and were given some as christmas presents. When I got back to Hamilton I was so excited to watch my new movies, but soon found out that it was not going to happen anytime soon. My T.V has wonderful colour, but it is old and does not have any of the new attachments for a dvd. So I went to the SOURCE and told them about my situation, and they said that since I had an s-video cable spot on my vcr, I could run the dvd player through it. So I buy the cord and rush home to try it. But since my remote does not have an input or av button it would not work. So I arranged with my sister to swap my tv for her old one that has all of these connections. So a couple of weeks ago when Nick and my mom were driving back to the hammer, we made the switch and she hooked up the player. We were in a rush that day, so we just turned it on and it started to load, so I thought everything was fine. When I got home that night and tried it, it would play five minutes of a movie then freeze. I was so mad, but tried 2 others just to make sure and it was the same result. I wanted to give up and take all of these failures as a sign that I should not have this device. But I did not, the next time I went to T.O I dragged the player with me on the go bus. Luckly, I had a receipt and exchanged it for a better one. One that works, hurray, at least for now (knock on wood). So the moral of this story is to never give up, even when you run up against 10 walls before you get what you want.
