So yeah, my laptop officially died last night (posting from my phone right now) it seems that the computer itself still works and it's just the screen that's out, so hopefully I'll still be able to get all my pictures, music, etc.
I was planning on getting a new computer soon anyway considering my current one is around 4-5 years old, but I was gonna wait until I had a reliable job, but now it seems I'll be doing that a bit sooner lol. Luckily I just recently graduated from high school, so I've got about $375 of the $500-$600 i'd need.
Anyway, that's it, hopefully this gets resolved soon, and thank god for internet phones lol.
