Why? Not because it is a milestone related to my blog – number of days it has been in existence, number of posts etc. It is special ‘cos it is the first one that is being done from my brand new laptop.

My very own MacBook!

I still cannot believe it! I keep re-reading the above statement but it still feels a bit surreal. I have been glued to the thing since we brought it home earlier this afternoon. My own laptop, my very own. Mine and nobody else’s! As I was coming back home from the Mall this afternoon, I couldn’t help but smile at how it used to be whilst growing up. Dad being in the forefront of IT related stuff meant the comp will get a total rehaul any time. Any files that were dumped on the desktop previous week might disappear any day.

The number of times I had lovingly stored favourite photos, poems, stories only to find the whole contraption gone – well, they are well and truly behind me now! Anyone who touches my spanking new machine will be first fingerprinted and allocated no more than 2.5 minutes at a time. And strictly no games or downloads allowed!

Bring on sem 2!
