An Update

This will be quick, since I'm using my mom's computer (due to reasons you'll find out in a moment) and she wants it back. I'll just say this:

A few days ago, when I plugged my computer in to charge, I set  it on top of a desk. But it wasn't pushed very far back on the desk, and when my foot got caught in the wire of the computer, it was easily pulled down and made the computer fall. The next morning when I opened up my computer to use it at the Antioch Writers' Workshop so I could take notes, I saw a green-ish screen with an internal crack through the middle, along with a ton of white dust on the screen. I'm not sure where the dust came from, but immediately I thought back to the day before when it had fallen, and it felt almost as if the wind had been knocked out of me like it is sometimes when I jump out off of a swing. When I turned it on I was met with a blinking white screen that scared me a considerable amount. The thing I was most worried about was losing all of the writing and the pictures I had saved on it. But just a few minutes ago, it was picked up by a computer mechanic, and I think everything is going to be all right!

I've been looking forward to tonight for this whole (slightly hard) week. Because... Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2 is coming out! The last in the whole series...it'll be over now...and I can't believe it! And beforehand, my parents and I are going to China Cottage...finally, I get American Chinese food! After about four days in China, I was already craving sesame tofu. 

I'll post again soon about the Writers' Workshop, which I've been attending the morning of which this past week. And I'll post my journals from China. I just wanted to post an update, since I haven't blogged in so long.
