Welcome Home Friend!


About a month ago, the motherboard of my laptop died and I had to send it in to the manufacturer. Thankfully, my aunt purchased an extended warranty when she bought me the computer as a graduation present (another blessing in itself) and I didn't have to pay a single cent for the repairs.

However, I didn't realize how much I used and coveted my laptop til I didn't have it at my disposal. I'm not proud of how much I rely on this thing, but seriously technology is so important in society today. I was literally going to a computer lab on campus every other night and stopping by these labs whenever I was on campus for class or for an ASC meeting. The week before Retreat was crazy without it, I had to write research paper almost completely on campus, I had to let go of my pride and ask friends if I could borrow their computers. What an inconvenience the past month has been!

My dad made a special trip to College Station today just to bring me my precious laptop and I felt like a kid at Christmas or someone who'd just been reunited with a long lost friend! I'm so thankful nothing from the hard drive was compromised. When I plugged my HP in and hit the power button I shouted with excitement as everything ran smoothly and all of the files were just as I had left them.

Welcome home friend, it's so good to have you back in my lap :)
