Mundane Things

I blog about the mundane and the not-so-mundane things in life!

Netbook is Acting Up

 

Every time I do my blog visits, my netbook just acts up and it gets in my nerve!!! :(

I really hate it when the netbook just suddenly hangs up and then pages become unresponsive. I don’t like it when I am in a rush to finish my blog visits and some online tasks. When it does, it takes up most of my time and it really irritates me. I told hubby about it and he knows that this netbook’s memory is just too low for the many tasks that I do. Plus the fact that all of our photos are here, it makes it even slower. There are solutions to this problem, I know. One is to buy an external hard drive and transfer all the photos from my netbook to make the HD here work faster and its processing better. Second is to buy a new one, which for now is not very feasible.

I can afford to buy an external HD, like and extra 1 TB of hard drive would be very great, but even if the netbook’s memory is low, browsing and my blog visits would not be that really fast still, as there are some plugins that are not functioning well. As for a new laptop, that is the one thing I can’t afford to buy yet (from my pocket). Oh, wait let me check… I do have some money in my PayPal, but for now, I don’t want to touch that. I still have to save a little bit more from my earnings so that I can buy a new laptop, that is if it’s going to be the decision.

I hope that my netbook won’t die on me these coming days. I know it’s still okay, except that it’s memory is almost full, and it’s a bit slow already. I know it will still live for a year or two… after that, I don’t know, maybe it will retire. ;)

Like Brand New

 

So I had no choice but to pay $20 for the installation of the iPad shield. It’s was an extra cost but guess what? It was worth it! I was told not to use the iPad for 24 hours for curing, so that the bubbles will totally go away. So I did not use the gadget, kept it from the hands of the little boys and indeed, it was really nice and beautiful now. It’s like brand new!

The screen is clearer, it’s like I bought the latest iPad with the new shield. It’s so nice to use. Unlike the old shield that had been “bruised” a lot, with so many scratches and just so ruined. I like the “brand new” one today, hopefully it will last long too as with the old one. I will just try to keep it from the little boys so that it won’t get “mopped” on the floor again! ;)

No Rescue :(

 

The iPad shield is really broken and has gone off the screen now. The little boys did it, hubby told me that the two boys were fighting as to who gets to use the iPad first and then they broke the gadget’s screen protector. There’s no rescue for it.

So since I bought a new iPad shield the other week, just in case it will really tear off, I have no choice but to replace it and because I don’t know how to install it, it leaves me no other option too but to bring the iPad shield and the iPad to the store and pay $20 (plus tax) for installation of the shield. :(

Oh my! That’s another cost but I can’t keep the iPad from the little boys, they will still find ways to use it. Anyway, I hope the new one will last long like the first one.
