My new MacBook and iPod Touch, that is. They were supposed to arrive Friday, which was less than 48 hours after I ordered them. Apple has incredibly fast delivery service. I chose the free 5 day shipping. When I got home from my French class, there was a note from FedEx on the door telling [...]

I ordered my new MacBook and free iPod Touch last night. Yesterday was the first day of Apple’s Buy a Mac, Get a free iPod deal. I’m glad I waited because not only do I get the free iTouch, Apple upgraded their MacBooks to come with a 160GB hard drive instead of a 120GB one [...]

Lunch was fun because after [...]

We named ourselves the GITs, which stands for Gryffinpuff Improv Troupe. Gryffinpuff because two of us are Gryffindors and two [...]

I am retiring my iBook. In a few weeks, once Apple brings back their ‘Buy a Mac, get a free iPod’ deal, I’ll be getting a brand new MacBook.
I took my iBook to the Apple Store and they told me it would cost at least $200 to fix it. $200 to open it up and [...]

The semester ended Friday and I am now home. Friday was a hectic day of my last final, packing, cleaning, and loading up cars. I got home at 10pm, so I didn’t unpack anything until Saturday.
I unpacked all my clothes and realized that I was missing some of them. I believe I left an entire [...]
