My computer is dying.
Yep. So I've had this PC for 3 years. I had to get it because my other one literally shut down. The screen faded to black never to see the light of day again. Luckily my mom had the money to buy me a new one and for the last 3 years this computer has had several problems. First the adapter caught on fire, than the new adapter broke, and now in a weird turn of events my computer screen is about to fall off and it is literally being held up by library books. No lie.
I cannot explain how this happened. It's too long of a story. I believe that Michelle was playing near my computer (because I use to keep it out when I was gone) and it fell on the floor. This caused the piece that holds the screen together to break...hence my dilemma. I didn't believe this to be a problem until recently. My computer is overheating and now shuts down and yesterday I noticed video playback and general sound was a little delayed. Fuck me all to hell.
I have a warranty but believe it or not it is up June 9th. This means that my computer has to go to geek squad now in order for it to get fixed. Unfortunately I am leaving in 2 weeks, so I've decided to mail my computer home so it can get fixed there. I won't have to worry about being able to pick it up if it's there.
I will be without my computer for a few weeks (damn) but hopefully I will be able to use my aunt's or at least go to the library to use one. I have no choice but to send my baby off because I can't afford to wait and renew my warranty which would cost me a hefty $370. Can't afford that.
How did we ever live without computers. It seems completely unbearable these days. My writing may be a little sparse here for a while but I promise I'll be around.
Oh, and I got an internship for September. I emailed the Bridgeport lady and told her I would be open to interning with them in the fall (even though I didn't get the job). A few hours later she said that would be perfect. And there you have it. Hopefully this means life for me is starting to look up. I hope
Until then

A lot of blues and greens. With a pen and ink you can feel the flow of the words going out your fingers; turning colors, words into sweet wine.
