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!!

First Things First!

My name is Shelby. I am a indecisive 20 year old from Alberta! I was born and raised in Alberta, I am from a teeny tiny town that no one has ever heard of. So,  half the time I don't even tell people. It just creates a big mess of trying to explain where it is and the other person truly thinking that it is somewhere in Siberia.  I was born on January 25th , to two people who have been together for about 26 years now! Never married though, just engaged =) It is sooo confusing trying to explain to people my parents situation! We have 2 houses, because my Dad works in the city 6 days out of the week. Everyone just assumes my parents are divorced, seeing as how they don't get to live together and they have different last names! I would probably assume the same thing if someone told me that weird story haha! I have 1 sister that is my very best friend. She is 9 years older then me, is married with 2 kids and 1 more on the way!!! She has 2 little boys that are absolu...

Growing Up... Live and Learn.

Hey guys! Sorry it has been a little while. I just feel like I can't write without some sort of inspiration and today my inspiration isn't the happiest of memories but definitely one of my stepping stones to growing up. On Facebook there is a "On This Day" app and it basically shows you all of your statuses or pictures on that particular day in past years. Well today, June 2nd my Facebook status was about how excited I was to go wedding dress shopping 3 years ago and I sat there reading it and not being able to believe how much had changed within those 3 years. I know I always come back to being engaged and my ex a lot and now that isn't because I'm not over it but honestly, that was probably the biggest turning point in my life thus far. I see all of these statuses each day and they take me down memory lane, they mostly remind me how happy and in love I was, or how many amazing friends I had/have. I say had/have because I can't believe how many people hav...
