R.I.P Motherboard.

So my laptop's motherboard is completely and utterly fried. However they have managed to retrieve my hard drive, which I understand is not a hard thing to do. Unfortunately, they say that they cannot retrieve the data because I've password protected it. Incidentally, I find this to be utter bullshit because I have the internet which doesn't state anything about passwords, or maybe I just ignored it.

All I can do now is wait. I don't really know what I am waiting for. I think my dad is going to get this fixed somehow. I'll probably get a new laptop which sucks because apart from the dead motherboard and part where the DVDs go in has broken off and the fact that I have spilled nail polish and glue over the keys multiple times and the broken keys - the laptop overall is completely fine.

Plus, I have essays due in after the easter and it really sucks. I have not wanted to do my English work so badly before. I just want my laptop to work, for all of my documents to be fine so I can actually assess them and get good grades for them. I have never ever in my life wanted to do work so badly. Not ever.

I guess you just don't know what you have until it's gone - which is so crappy.

I have so many unfinished stories on that computer. I have so many childhood memories. I can't believe I can't get to them whenever I feel like it. It's stupid because even though I don't use my laptop that often amymore, I hate the idea that now it's gone it's not there for when I do want to use it. I hate that I don't have an option of whether I can use it anymore - I just can't use it because it doesn't work anymore.


Just in case there is anyone reading this thinking how the motherboard is fried - well it's because it over heated or there's dust in the fans or both. Maybe you should invest in some kind of cooler. It just sucks that the motherboard died. My brother does the right thing. Like whenever he feels his laptop is heating up he just goes downstairs with it. The living room is just so much cooler. I was always just so lazy.

I've had this laptop for almost 4 years. I don't know if I can just go back to using a desktop again because before I had the laptop I used the family computer and it was not a good experience. The computer was just so slow. Plus it's like downstairs and I like my room. I really hope I get a new laptop.


Doesn't this kind of thing just make you realise how much people rely on technology nowadays? Even now I'm sitting here on my phone typing this out. I can still do things without my laptop - it's just limited.

Well I'll just keep on complaining about these minor things in life because I live in a world where teenagers cry over not having an iPhone or that fancy car for their 16th birthday. Maybe I'll blog about that later.
Okay. Bye.
