Hold me close
Let your love surround me
Bring me near
Draw me to your side
And as I wait
I'll raise up like the eagle
and I will sore with you
Your spirit leads me on
By the power of your love
crash and burn.
Welp. It finally happened.
My computer has been making gurgly-googly-clicking sounds at me for about a month now. it was getting slower and slower for a few days then...I was tricked! It seemed to be working like brand new for about two days before Halloween and I thought the little booger fixed itself.
Boy was I wrong. Went to open the computer after my long trip to Chicago and I have a flashing black screen with lots of white pretty numbers.
Crash and burn.
Despite all the warnings about backing things up and buying an external hard-drive, I just sailed along feeling invincible to the world of computer viruses and bugs. And now I've got a million gigbytes of space and nothing to fill them with. No resumes, club talks, favorite pictures, all my college assignments, the whole shebang it shot to the ground and gone.
Honestly, I was completely okay with it. 100% didn't bother me until I went to open my I-tunes tonight and realized that thousands of songs were also gone. I might have cried a little when I realized this.
Let me just say, there were three lessons learned in this situation.
1. Buy a Mac next time.
2. Our world is way too dependent on computers for communication.
3. Microsoft Word documents can become one of our material possessions that we cling too...be not to make your computer life an idol/attachment.
Anywho. Missed my blog and thought I write :] HAPPY THURSDAY!
