Meet Vladimir!

Although it's been a month since I bought it ... hey guys meet my new laptop!

(That is a picture of someone having goitre, yes.)

It's the pink Toshiba Portégé M900! I'm like the mother who doesn't know which photos to post of my baby hence I put them up all.


I have decided to name him Vladimir, after my three favorite people in the world. Yes it's a Russian laptop. Do not question it on its gender please, this is a very sensitive issue for both of us. He's a boy.

(You would think pink meant it's a girl but if you think about it what else is pink but very masculine ...? Penis, exactly.)

I'm using a wallpaper that changes every ten seconds so this is not my wallpaper, btw.

Case in point.

Any comments cleverly pointing out my laptop is a portable phallic symbol or an extension of the penis I never had ... are welcomed.

Anyway the main reason I'm posting my laptop photos now is that ... I'm taking it away from me. Yes, I am BANISHING Vladimir.

My IB exams are coming in two weeks and free access to internet has been a distraction the size of China. Hence I'm taking my laptop away from 3pm onwards, only allowing me access to it from 8am to 3pm - my school hours. Yes I know I'm about to embark on a journey that many may consider "unthinkable" or "ludicrous" or "simply unfeasible" ... but I must be strong.

Wish me luck you guys, as hard as parting with my pseudo-Russian laptop will be. Especially when it's so beautiful and pink and phallic.
