Of Blog Absence and Laptops

Sunday, October 31, 2010
Ever since I started this blog with my writer spirit on high, I also started being busy with school work. When classes opened, my blog was not my first priority anymore. There were lots of things to think of and to finish. Semestral break came this year, and my fingers were itching to type all the canned ideas from several months of different adventures. I had a mental list of what to do for my 10-day break. Unfortunately, the force was not good to me. Just when my free week was starting, my netbook crashed! My sister couldn't fix it until now. All my important files still hang on the balance. So, even if I want to start blogging my experiences, my entries would be incomplete without my visuals.

I am now using my sturdy 17" Compaq, which basically helped me with numerous school projects for almost two years. Oh, how I've missed looking at a widescreen laptop. It's screen is HD by the way, and graphics are way clearer than my Eepc netbook. I guess I have to stick with my old pal for a while 'til the little one regains its power. I like my netbook because it is handy and my shoulders don't hurt anymore whenever I bring it to school. But I also love my HD lappy because it helps me with my visual aids in my classes. I also conduct film showings inside classrooms using the widescreen Compaq.

Absenteeism is not a good thing, neither is a broken laptop. All I can do now is be patient. Wait for my li'l lifeline to come back. Though, I didn't get to do what I have planned in this blogging world, my writer's spirit still did not fail to rescue me from total desperation.

Writing will always be my comfort zone, with or without a blog, with or without a laptop.
