I am one of those people who gets stupidly attached to 'things'. Like I can't throw a bag away because..., or I can't throw that top away because...get the point?
There is probably one 'thing' that I am most attached to. Something I use every single day. Something I have had for a couple of years and looked after better than anything else (except the cats of course).
My MacBook Pro!
Today felt like the end of the world....
My MacBook still works but ... it has a big crack across the screen!! What the actual hell! I was so angry when I discovered it! The worst of it is I have no idea how it happened.
I have not:
*Sat on it
*Stood on it
*Dropped it
* Thrown anything at it
*Left it where the cats could jump on it
*Bashed it against anything
...So how did I do it?
Honestly it felt like the end of the world. My Mum told me it's just a laptop and she is right in a way, I know that. At the same time though it's not just a laptop. It's my escape to another world. I use it every single day. I write all my Just Julz posts on it and I think I pretty much have done from the beginning!
In the past I have always had problems with laptops crashing or getting ridiculously slow. Not this one. It is as good today as the day I got it.
Plus I just know it won't be cheap to replace the screen and I'm not exactly well off these days.
It could have been worse. The laptop still works and in all honestly when you are using it you can barely see anything wrong with it. That's not the point though, I know it's there. I was so proud of myself for looking after this for the past couple of years and now it's not perfect anymore!
It is ridiculous how attached I get to things. God forbid if it was to actually stop working...I don't know what I would do.
Please tell me I'm not the only one that gets too attached to things?
