An Apple TV?
Sunday was pretty boring for me and I didn't plan on going out today. I just spent the entire day just chilling and doing my best to catch up on my journal entries, especially logging my top songs for the past week. But for the rest of the day, I was just chilling.
Suddenly, I felt the need to go out in the afternoon. I initially decided to "treat myself" again after completing my mood entries, but I just went out regardless. I kept watching videos of how to set up an Apple TV and thought if I should buy myself one. I was hesitant because they'll just release a new version this year, but whatever, I just wanted to buy one now so I booked a ride to SM Aura and the driver was kind of chatty, which put me off a bit. He went on about how we shouldn't have bike lanes and that kind of put me in a bad mood. But eventually, I reached SM Aura and I checked Power Mac Center if they have an Apple TV with ethernet available. They didn't, so I had to walk to The Loop in Bonifacio High Street. It took me a while to walk there and my Apple Watch even recorded my walk as a workout, but I eventually got there. The saleslady wasn't sure if they still had the ethernet version in stock, but the first Apple TV box she pulled from the display shelf was the ethernet version! It was the last one they had, too! I was so lucky!
I immediately purchased the Apple TV and walked to One Bonifacio to buy an HDMI and an ethernet cable. I was able to get both for pretty cheap, which was nice, and I booked a ride home. Thankfully, I got home quick and I excitedly set up my new Apple TV. I immediately downloaded some apps and set it up with my iPhone. I figured out how to add an IP TV app to this and I watched some KBS Drama. I saw that Seohyun's drama was airing and I took pictures. I was so excited and enjoyed this new device and it just felt so nice. I was just watching Korean TV and Korean CF ads until I passed out.
