Memory loss

If I got to see you and chat with you for a second in fort lauderdale this weekend (while I was home)- you probably asked me why I was home and I probably told you it was because my computer needed to be fixed. Well, let me begin by bragging on MacBook. When I wad in 9th grade I discovered Apple products (fully). I wanted a MacBook so bad I couldn't stand it. My parents required me to purchase it myself… which was probably the best thing they could have made me do. Not only did I buy a MacBook myself but i had seemingly acquired responsibility. After 3 months of savings it was mine! MacBook never failed me. I was shocked how quick it was and that it would never freeze. I built and built my iTunes and it was wonderful. Nothing slowed the two of us down. My technological dreams had come true. Until this summer, things quickly fell downhill. Microsoft word expired, it froze every few seconds and it was almost useless. Then out of no where it said "disk full" in other words- can't do nothing. I felt like everything that I had saved up to buy was beginning to fail me. I had forgotten how much I loved that laptop and how much work I put into the purchase of it. So, the computer had a full memory but I had memory loss. How often do we forget the things that we love? More often than not, I believe.
I had to spend several hours in the Apple store Friday night trying to figure out the problem. I stuffed the computer with too much junk. Now what? After sorting through all the files, I could move forward. All of this would have been impossible if I hadn't have called for the Apple representative for help. I probably would have thrown the whole thing away. But I was able to salvage it. We spent time figuring out that I needed an external hard drive and all that stuff... Thank god we were able to salvage my very expensive laptop.
My point is this: memory loss is never good. Always remember what you've loved. Never forget. If you have to ask for help, it's okay. And remember- don't overload yourself with junk. ;)

Discovering my dreams,
