Heres the deal: I bought this laptop 1 1/2 years ago as a freshman: Dell 700m 12.1" Crystal Clear LCD Screen (I dont remember what it was called, but when i customized it it was top of the line and its literally crystal clear) 1.7 Ghz Intel Centrino 512 MB Ram 55.8 GB Hard Drive 5400 RPM 802.11b/g NEC DVD +-RW (Dvd Burner) 2 USB 2.0 2hour 20 minute battery life Dell Warrenty Expired
Typical wear and scratches on a laptop. There is a streak of paint fading above the keyboard from the laptop screen opening and closing and a little bit paint fading where my hands rest to type (only can notice in direct light). Couple of scratches on top of the laptop as well. There is a little dip switch that puts the laptop automatically in stand by that is gone now because of the usage, but it does not affect anything. The laptop is really small and compact, I always carry it around in my book bag w/ me with no problem. I have gotten a ton of comments on how dinky and cute this laptop is. Will include powercord as well.
The laptop runs perfectly and I have not have any problems with it at all for the 1 1/2 years I have used it. I am getting rid of it because I am switching to Mac and I would not be needing a PC Laptop anymore. If you any questions about this laptop , or if you want pictures, or if you want to see the laptop in person, I will be more then willing to post them up, answer your questions, or show you the laptop in person!. Asking Price. $485 OBO.
Note: I will format everything and reinstall everything to OEM for you.
Im bored. I hate school. Powerhouse is almost done, Club Volleyball is almost done, and School is almost done. God is definately keeping me sane......also this girl is keeping me sane.
Just 1 1/2 more months: I end first week of May! I am already thinking of my summer plans: Summer School, VBC, Jr. Camp, St Louis, Sox Games, Loads of Biking, Working out, Volleyball, Volleyball Camp Counselor, Wisconsin Dells (havent been there yet), Paintball. word.
I have been thinking a lot about life lately. With news of people I know passing away, you have to realize life is so precious and really short. God has put you on this earth for a certain amount of time to do His work. That time is very very very very short, use it fulfillingly. I never try to hold any grudges or be mad at anyone, because I never want that to be the last thing you said to that person.
"I saw the host of silent angels waiting on their own
Knowing that all the promises of faith
Come alive when you see home
Hold still and let your hand melt into mine"
With my parents not being christian, it is definately hard. Often times we take our parents for granted, but we have to realize that on this earth, we have only one mom and one dad that is our blood in our lifetime. Same with our friendships/relationships we have on this earth. When God showed me the bigger picture, kind of made me think "Whoa, thats it". God tells us to honor our mother/parents, I have felt a burden on my heart that I need to do that more, especially now that I am becoming a grown man. To sum everything up: Use the time we have on this earth fulfillingly. Death at the same time can be a sad fact, but at the same time, God's
light can be shown through pain/death. Afterall, I believe in a God
that surpasses Death. Word.
I like what Dan from Jars of Clay says about death in the beginning of this video. Never realized what the song meant. good stuff:
Anyways, on a lighter note:
HELENA, Mont. - Grizzly bears in and around Yellowstone National Park
no longer need Endangered Species Act protection, the federal
government said Thursday.
The
area had an estimated 136 to 312 grizzlies when the species was listed
as threatened in 1975, but has more than 500 of the bears today, the
government said.
Woof!
....i think the name of the bear up there should be named Thor....dang, i should be studying.... Uno Mas!! :)

I am very upset right now . The second hard drive that i had in my computer failed on me tonight. The Ironic thing is that at Alberts house last night, we were just talking about how Maxtor Hard Drive's sucks and how it will fail on you. As we were talking about it I said to my self, "Wouldnt it be funny if my slave hard drive failed on me tonight?"
All my pictures from high school and all the music I have collected over years might be all gone.I really dont mind losing my music, that stuff is replaceable. But... all
my pictures that I had from high school and other events are all gone and are irreplaceable. Hopefully Carey can recover what he can, he is my last hope right now. In addition...All my photography stuff that i was working on and all the stuff i have yet to upload on flickr are all possibly gone now. Those were really important to me . I am in a bad mood right now hmph.
