Another reason why Robin is a GENIUS!
As most of you know, I got pretty sick in the middle of finals weeks. The rents insisted on coming and getting me early, missed two finals- it was awesome. Luckily, i survived and my professors were very understanding and are allowing me to it all up when i get back to bucktown. Anyway, so for my western civ final i pretty much have to summarize the whole class in two hours. So my plan was to write this all out and then study what I was going to say. 14 pages. 14 freaking pages.
So I wake up yesterday morning to a blue screen on my laptop. I restart it...it makes all these noises and the screen says- error: primary hard drive not found. My dad decided to call his friend who is awesome with computers and he comes over to take a look. He couldn't figure it out, so he calls Dell. Hours later Dell determines my hard drive is bad and they have a new hard drive in the mail for me. So my question is why do i have a 3 year warranty for ON SITE repairs if their answer is "sorry, kid..here's a new hard drive, knock yourself out." AND this laptop is 5 months old...what is that? Dell says they are not responsible for anything so it is up to me to find a place that recovers hard drives and I would have to pay for it. I finally found a place that restores hard drives and the guy told me it was toast, so thats the end with that. B-E-A-UTIFUL. So yeah, the paper is GOOOOOOONE. and of course i am a genius and didn't make a back up, so ever since i have been getting lectured on how you make back ups of EVERYTHING. It's bad enough I have to start from scratch and rewrite this beast, everyone doesn't have to rub it in. So after a minor... well no, i lie.. MAJOR freak out later, i began typing this up AGAIN. I guess this could have been alot worse...but that's not really helping me not be bitter while i am stuck rewriting this in my brothers room over BREAK. It happens. I'll get it done, I'll live, and I'll write a lovely letter to my friends a Dell. Bottom line- Dell can bite me. ohh and make back ups;)
