When Life Throws You Lemons, Make Lemonade!

I spend my waking hours either getting treatments, eating carbs, lots of carbs (and sneaking on gulping more water than I should) or being online where I apply for work, and get rejected a lot of times, work for my boss which is not as often as I want it to be, blogging which I am doing now and  reading articles featured on yahoo.

Not until recently, I do all these online business in a 3in x 12 inch screen. Yeah that's right. It's worse than owning a netbook or working/surfing on your smartphone for a long period of time. The circumstance started with I (well not really I but I am owning up to it) accidentally dropped my laptop from the chair to the floor.

When it happened, I did not freak out. I turned it on and found out that the screen was damaged by the fall. 2/3 of the screen is just a white canvass. For a moment I thought how am i going to handle this, and just turned it off and told Henry my laptop's screen needs some fixing, and then I went to sleep.

That was 4 days ago, and I am still surviving with a nearly blind laptop. But just like any other things for me, if it can and still deliver its purpose, then I am good with it. (That's the reason why I rarely update my phone).

Come to think of it, my laptop is 4 years old this month. It's a grandpa in the world of laptops. But I still love it like that first time I saw it at the computer store. By the way my laptop is a male. hahaha.

And so tomorrow, hopefully Henry and I will get it fixed at the computer store I bought it from. And hopefully, it isn't a major damage that needs to be shipped to Manila. I'm counting that it just needs a bit repair that the store can handle.

Because not having my laptop is like living in Afghanistan for me. ( i really don't know what that means. LOL)
