so, what's new?

****
I'm really making up for my recent drought of blog posts. Hahaha. Three posts in the span of four hours? Not bad.

Not too bad at all.

I wish I could say the same for the way things are going.

My old computer just died on me. After close to seven years of faithful (sometimes frustrating) service, it finally gave out.

So what? You've got a brand-brand new computer already!

Yes, that's right. HOWEVER, I lost my personal workstation. Hahaha. We put that old computer in my room for my PERSONAL use. It was all MINE. MINE MINE MINE. No one bugging me to get off, no one bothering me in the hallowed confines of my room, and NO ONE ELSE to share it with.

Oooh... Selfish, selfish, SELFISH!

Aside from that, that computer served as a backup of sorts. It was my backup charger (?) and file storage. It served as the prime cramming station in the house -papers written at 2 AM and presentations at 5 AM WITHOUT people badgering me to go to sleep.

Maybe it's just something with the wires. Maybe someone stupidly tripped something. Haaay...

****
That's why I only finished my paper this morning. I had planned to finish it last night, but that was when I found out that the old computer was already having a problem. I would have written the report on my XDA, but battery problems and the lack of a charger prevented me from doing so.

While chronic procrastination was the main culprit, technical difficulties all around exacerbated the problem. Hassle.

Maybe you should have finished it a week ago.
