My hard disk drive has this:
Merde!
I need an external hard drive pronto! Or I may have to back up. And back up and back up more.
I miss those good old days when films were being used and that we get to see the photos as soon as these are developed. These days my children just look at photos in the computer and not in photo albums. Or that may be just us because we just have photos printed when needed for school projects 😀

I had a student before who wanted to have his own laptop but his parents won’t get him one. Reason? He spends too much time playing computer games.
He reasoned out that yes, he wants to have his files (or yes, games) with him wherever he goes. I even kidded him “So you want to guard your games 24/7 huh?” He just chuckled.
So when there was still no laptop for him but he did a move that surprised his parents. I was surprised too.
He got himself an external hard drive! Woohoo!
That way, he reasoned, he can bring his games with him when he go to his friends houses and that way, he can still play with these games 😀
Clever boy, he used his own money to buy the stuff.

I have written about the new camera that blogging bought in my other blog.
One of the first things that I got from the money I earned by writing reviews is to buy a laptop. Nothing fancy, it was not even new though it was barely used.
It was hubby’s decision to get this laptop rather than get a new one, which his former college classmate was selling because she was planning to get a newer and more compact one. He is my tech guru.
When I have free schedule at my workplace, I bring it with me so that I can use it to write blog posts, reports and I even use it with my students. It is also great for watching DVD 🙂
I even got a backpack for the laptop for easier handling. It is quite heavy though since we have to walk from my workplace to meet hubby in the parking space that we prefer before we go home. I haven’t been bringing this to work as of late because of the weather.
In the backpack I have other things that I use for the laptop. Charger, mouse, my Nokia pc suite cable, the kids music player, my smaller digicam and even sometimes the digicam’s usb cable, if I have to take pictures of my children or my students in action. I call these my “tools of the trade”. Whatever.
I am even thinking of getting an HDMI cable to use for the huge wall-mounted plasma tv in my work place. We can even use it at at home for other applications 😀
