Goodbye, Old Laptop!!!
a month ago
Welp, it happened... Again!
My laptop went kaput for the second time, and I take it as a sign that it's as good as done. I don't think it is worth it to keep repairing it anymore. It just simply doesn't have a point anymore.
I will say, for the three years I've had it, it served me well. And Honestly, I'm glad to have made that purchase. I wrote so many poems, stories, and even my novel on that thing, and I played a ton of games on it. But I guess it finally reached the end of its rope.
Technically, it does still work if I were to plug it in. But considering that it is the RAM that might be giving out, I don't trust it to do anything important anymore. And the ordeal I went through the week before was already traumatizing enough - with my essay being stuck in there and with a looming deadline approaching to turn it in.
I saved ALL of my written files on the cloud, though. I learned my lesson. Everything has been saved, and I can access them anywhere. But it sure will feel like a pain in the rear to work from my tablet on a bluetooth keyboard. It just doesn't feel the same - on top of that, I can't even play any PC games.
But it is what is is. I've never been the materialistic sort, so I'm not going to worry. I hope to be able to purchase a new laptop and get back to work on it.
The way I see it, this is just a setback, not an obstacle. I'll live.
Thank you guys for giving me an ear on me talking about my prized material possession reaching the end of its life. But it'll work out in the end. I'm not worried in the least. :)
At least I have no major looming assignments that will be a pain in the butt to do.
Sincerely,
JC Solis
