{25} Oh life, why are you like this?!
LOLOLOLOL best story ever, guys (based on real life events, yo):
My laptop stopped working last week, it wouldn't get past the first start-up screen when I tried to start it. It made some weird noises as well :/
My mum's boyfriend stayed at our place from Thursday to Sunday and he fixed our family comp 8D (first yay-moment). I tried to find out what's wrong with my laptop on Saturday afternoon and we actually ended up fixing it for like 5 hours ö__ö; he explained me how to open my laptop and everything, which was quite a cool thing to do, tbh XD well anyways, I opened it, screwed up the connection cable of my keyboard while we were at it and we ended up taking out the hard-drive. He noticed that the little part that connects my HD with my laptop kinda broke. He assumes it got overheated *cough* and kinda killed my HD along with it (hence the funny noises when I tried to start it). So I asked him what we're supposed to do now and he gave me his 160GB HD. Just like that. I didn't even ask him for anything and he was like "Here, take it. I don't need it anyways" O___O;v
We spent ages on trying to re-install Windows on my external HD but that didn't really work, don't know why D: so we ended up installing Linux on my 4GB memory card XDDD
Linux worked fine but it's probably the biggest pile of crapshit ever, really :X I don't know how people can use it, it gave me a headache just trying to figure out how/where to find my saved files, not even gonna talk about the lack of proper music players and all that jazz. But at least my laptop was running again... for not even 24 hours >__> it probably felt my wrath/loathing towards it, so it stopped working last night, as well XDDD *facepalm*
Now I'm using my Wii to surf the intarwebz, which is a bit of a pain in the ass too, but still better than nothing (and that's the reason why there's no LJ-cut for this, can't find it on here e__e). I'll just have to be patient and wait until my mum's boyfriend gets me a new connection piece thingy for my HD v___v he's so nice to me ;___; not just because he really tried to help me and because he got me a new HD and whatnot, he really is a nice guy :3 and my mum seems to be really relaxed when he's around, so that's another thumbs up XD
Now, isn't that a touching, mind-blowing and exciting story filled with some good ol' wtfery, even though it doesn't really have a happy end? :'D *wipes tears*
I just wanted to write it all down, because I can't be arsed to explain it 270000 times over and over again XD
I didn't even mention the best part yet: all my files are lost. My 20GB of music, all my concert DVDs (damn, that 1,6GB Dream Concert file...), my camera original fines... AND my 3400+ 2PM pictures T_____T
