Everything Broke!!
So this week, more specifically Sunday just about everything I own broke. It started Sunday morning at about 3am. I got home from a Toga party to plug my phone into the charger. But when I looked down my charger tip was basically bent in half. My phone was about to die and I had no charger. Great I thought, just what I need at three in the morning. So I turned my phone off, went to sleep and tried to forget about it. Later that day I went to my car because I was going to go get a new charger. What do I see but my driver side back seat window wide open. It was completely gone into the door of the car. Fabulous just another thing I need to deal with. So I drove around trying to find a Verizon store but everything was closed because it was Sunday. So I decided to tackle the window debacle. First I went to Sears Auto parts but they said the guy was not in today. That led me to Firestone and luckily they were at least able to put it up and in stationary mode so it would not fall back down before they got the part it. By the way, just for them looking at my car, it wasn’t cheap, about $100. Okay with that fixed for the time being I hit the mall with one of my friends to find a Verizon store in there. Found it and got the charger. Alright I thought today’s looking up; I got everything fixed as much as I could for the time being. Well later that night I was online trying to send my mom an E-card for her birthday (which was that day) and my computer started freaking out. I tried to get back onto the internet only to have the USF Quarantine site pop up saying that my computer has a virus. AWESOME! That was sarcastic if you couldn’t see that. So what does any girl do who doesn’t know a thing about fixing computer, I freaked out. Luckily my friend was there and she helped me call places to get the virus removed. Yesterday I took it into the computer store above the bookstore where it currently resides until further notice. In the end I got my phone problem resolved but still have to deal with my car and laptop. There was too much going on this weekend. I’m glad it’s over.

I know how it feels to have everything just fall apart. It seems like as soon as one thing goes wrong, everything else follows. I actually had a whole WEEK that was like that! It was so horrible. All I wanted to do was go to sleep and not wake up until everything was fixed. But after it’s all over (or when something worse happens) you’ll realize that it really wasn’t that bad. I mean think of it this way, when you’re cell phone charger broke, you could have gotten to the mall and they could have been out of that kind of charger. Then you would have been without a phone until they got another shipment in, or until you could get to another store. Then when your car window was down, someone could have gotten in and stolen EVERYTHING out of your car (that is a lot more than 100 dollars to replace). Finally, when your laptop got a virus, it could have completely ruined your whole computer, then, you would have had to buy a new laptop! So when you’re feeling down, just look at the bright side of things. IT COULD HAVE BEEN A LOT WORSE!
Haha wow! That definitely sounds like the longest freaking day ever. I feel bad for you. I have to be honest, after I read that, I read it out loud to my boyfriend. He liked the blog. I often have problems messing up or breaking his things, so he sort of relates. = ] Oh and our car breaks more every day. I just don't think it wants to be used anymore. Hopefully your car doesn't cost too much to fix, but most mechanics do charge an arm and a leg no matter what. At least your window fell in, and no one actually smashed it or broke it. I'm pretty sure that would have ruined your day even more. Plus, you got an excuse to go to the mall! Also, you were actually lucky the computer warned you of the virus. Trust me. I've had viruses before, unexpected. It's the worst thing ever, and it'd be worse since you're away at college. You basically cannot survive college without a computer. It's ridiculous at times.
Side note, I just discovered definitely is spelled differently then I’ve spelled it my entire life. Haha. I found that to be interesting, however you may not.
Well I really hope you have a good week!
