YAY MACBOOK PRO!!
Yes. I'm blogging from a Macbook. MY NEW MACKBOOK! *swoon*
It's a bit of a 'culture shock' here, having been very seasoned as a Windows user... but since my family's first computer even back in the early nineties was a Macintosh, it's just like going back to my roots as a computer user.
So far no problems have cropped up. It's fine and dandy while eating up battery like crazy. I stupidly forgot to check its battery life when I bought it from school.
Well my life with a Mac started yesterday at the Notebook sales convention whatever event at NP. When I finally touched my Macbook for the first time, it was like... MAGIC! SRSLY! I was really tired after spending one sweltering morning at Sentosa for my dad's department's family day but once I set my eyes on it all my tiredness went away.
After buying this baby we made a pit stop at my aunt's when I really couldn't wait anymore, I brought the whole box up to my aunt's apartment and of course the first thing she said was "Wahhh you better study hard man".
Another reason why I'm so fucking excited is because it's a
notebook. It's not just any damned gadget. I've always had this love affair with notebooks ever since I was a kid when my dad carried one home from work. I simply wished I could have one of my own. But I was only 8. What for?
Obviously for pragmatic reasons I've never had this dream fulfilled. I'm thinking if I went to a JC I wouldn't be able to have this baby too. I guess the only ways I can repay my parents for getting this baby is
1. Work hard. Really hard.
2. Let them fiddle with it whenever they want to.
3. Send my mom for IT lessons.
Okay 'nuff said. Later I'm gonna go hunting for a pouch since the free carrier looks eerily like my nemesis The Crumpler Bag. It really looks freakingly like a CRUMPLER BAG. O__O
