New Laptop...

So, seeing as how I was starting school soon, I figured I would need a new laptop so that I can actually write papers and maybe new research! First, I had to research what kind of computer I should get! There were so many options But... The first choice was Apple? Or PC?

MacBook Pro!
A lot of people around me were getting MacBooks and I had used one before and really liked it. However, I really could not fathom spending hat much money on one single thing. The one thing I did notice however, was, the people that had MacBooks weren't really extremely computer savvy people. I don't mean that in any rude way, however the people that were really good with computers and who know a lot about them told me to go with PC. I still wanted a Mac just so I was like everyone else. But I don't do anything with music, or videos so there would be literally no point in spending that extra money. I could get so much more for so much less! Everything about my PC was way higher then the MacBook... Not to mention if I ended up getting a Mac, Bryan would have killed me and Apple would have killed my bank account.

So... I went to Future Shop and looked at the laptops. Looked and them all. Finally decided that buying a Mac would probably be the biggest waste of money ever, I decided to head towards the PC. But from then on I needed to decide what kind!! =) My old laptop was a Dell which I did really love, however the motherboard went and it is really finicky. Plus the mouse pad didn't work. So, I looked at the Dells and I just didn't see one I really liked.

Mine!





 



The one thing I really wanted was a white one with spaced out keys. That sounds weird, but I am more comfortable with that kind of keyboard. I looked around and saw a lot I liked but I really wanted one with a big processor because of all the multitasking I would be doing. I really liked the UltraBooks, they were nice and light, but their processors weren't that good. So, I finally found one I liked!!! It was white and had everything I needed and it was a third of the price that the MacBook would have been!! I was so excited to get it.






I am so happy I went with a PC and saved myself a lot of money. I love my laptop and I also love Windows 8! It is really cool and I have the Windows 7 interface as well!


That's all for now!!

My Biggest Fears.

So, I was having a tough time coming up with ideas for my blog and my sister sent me a few ideas that I could use and one of them was phobias, so that made me think about everything and it made me realize that I have a few fears in my life that really really scare me. Also, I am gonna try and get pictures for this blog as well.... but it will freak me out so I hope you realize what I am going through lol.  I will start with the least and end with the biggest fear! Here we go! =) 3. Clowns. OMG. Please do not laugh because I am not kidding. I am petrified of clowns. I have no idea why but they scare the shit of out me. I have this fear that I am going to be locked in a carnival or something and the only things around are clowns. I remember one year we went to Screamfest and there was a clown walking around and I looked at it and thought to myself... he is gonna come up to me I know it. Well what do you know, as we are waiting in line he comes up behind me and whispers in my ear...

So, I wrote a book.

What is new in my life?  Well not a whole lot actually,  still going to school,  still have the same friends,  still worrying about everything,  still dealing with anxiety.  Isn't that just the life?  I suppose.  It is mine at least lol. So, I feel like I have spent a lot of my time trying to find my "thing."  I always wanted to be that person who had one thing they were known for.  So I've tried it all,  I draw,  which is fun but I don't find myself constantly doing it and if I decide to do it as gift it seems like more of an effort than something I just enjoy.  I tried scrapbooking... Nope.  I tried running,  nah.  Then baking,  which I actually do love!  But somehow in the midst of looking for my "thing"  I never even realized that I had already found mine and I'd had it for a long time and it had always been my outlet, it had just been something that was always private and I never really...
