We Interrupt the Happy Entries…
For a depressing one. Well, depressing for me, anyway. It’s not a "Sunny Side Up" today, because my PC crashed. No, not literally! It didn’t fall on the floor or anything, but the effect’s just the same, because I can’t use it.:’( According to the technician, the hard drive just went pffft (and no, he didn’t say it exactly that way, but you know what I mean). The sad thing is, it’s Finals week already - meaning that time of the sem when you have to submit gazillions of papers and projects. Yep, yep, it’s Murphy’s law at its best (or worst, at least to me): a computer conking out during exam week. My files: papers, studies, research, ( Decided to buy an external hard drive serve as storage for all my backup files (if the crashing has taught me anything, it’s to back up anything and everything I have on a darn computer!) I’ll post pictures probably tomorrow, but I decided to call him Peter (hopefully, he’ll be as invincible as Peter Petrelli), to go along with Penelope (my other portable hard drive). And yes, I do name my stuff, in case you’re wondering. I don’t know if I mentioned it before, but now you know.games and movies too!) have suddenly gone without saying goodbye.:’( When the technician told me the sadness of the situation, I literally hyperventilated and gone through hysterical laughter.x_x I hate it.x_x

I know! And the worst part is, it’s HKO this week.*cry*
tidesong, yeah, I’m using my laptop too, and like yours, he’s pretty old too (4 years old already!), so he’s really slow.:(
cookie, yeah, it actually has two hard drives, but the damage was so extensive that it crashed the two of ‘em in one go.:(
