okay, i’m not exactly a techie. but i do love gadgets and i am more into electronics and more than most girls i know. i’m also not into things that are stereotypically feminine like bags, clothes, make up and all the same shit.
however, i realize that i am a girl after all. i do love shopping like most girls. it took me a phone conversation with a friend after a night of impulse-buying and splurging on stuff i don’t need at amazon to realize that i do treat my gadgets like dolls. i like to dress them up and buy toys for my toys. i have lost count of the number of times i bought bags for my very first laptop, my ancient compaq presario v2000. i’ve brought it with me everywhere, even peed on squat toilets with it in its samsonite backpack while travelling.
i’ve had a couple of laptops since then but i didn’t really buy bags for it anymore since they simply served as home laptops. i did buy a couple of bags for the free acer netbook that came with the 14″ laptop i previously bought. i never bought anything for my toshiba since it’s too big to carry around.
but i did buy sleeves and cases like crazy when i bought my ipad 2. they were pretty expensive too but most of them ended up gathering dust in my room. did that to a lesser extent with my ipad mini, Â although it does still boast a decent wardrobe.
and now i have started doing it for my new macbook air, my newest baby, even if it’s only a few days old. it’s so pretty, i just want to dress it up with different clothes (bought 3 and counting), buy a doll house for it—god, i just bought furniture—a laptop table, at amazon, who would’ve thought? and i think i will buy more once i set foot in villaggio or ikea. i bought the table at amazon just because i couldn’t get to ikea last weekend to buy the laptop table/pillows i was crushing on.
what more if i get a car or something high maintenance? i dread the day
