So I went to orientation at College Park last week and originally I wasn’t into going off to spend the night at campus. I’m not too good with taking in new environment but as the time approached I started getting excited. When we got to orientation and we split up to groups according to orientation, I really got into the college. I can’t wait to leave to go because the campus is beautiful! Even the dorm that we stayed in was really cool, it’s something that I can adjust too. The only thing that might be slightly upsetting is that my friend and I stayed in a dorm that had air conditioning, but in reality when we get our dorm it might not have it because we’re Freshman. That sucks, but we’ll have to adjust. Oh also, we don’t get our own bathrooms, it’ll be down the hall and I’m not really comfortable with that yet but it’s something I’ll have to adjust to, yet again.

Anyways other than all that I actually love the campus, the environment, the idea that everything I could want is just a walk away. Actually during the first day of orientation we walked our asses off. It was so tiring because we walked from one location to another until like 2:00pm, and this is with us starting at 9:00am, then we reached our dorms and had an hour break and then it was back to walking. That was very tiring but the whole point of this is that I love the campus and am extra excited to go in August.

Now with all of this I have to get things for college and the first thing I want is my laptop. Since forever I wanted a MacBook, I had my mind set on either a MacBook or the MacBook Pro. I mean either will be fine with me, and because the Pro is slightly more expensive and for my mother’s sake I was willing to get the MacBook. I talked to my mother about it and she was fine with it. Yesterday, while talking to my mom about it again my dad jumps in and says I shouldn’t get a Mac. He says it’s best to get a PC unless I plan on doing graphics design. He calls his IT tech friend and blah blah blah and I say whatever, fine. So now I don’t know what type of PC laptop to get. I’ve heard some horror stories about some crappy brands of laptop and don’t want to waste a bunch of money just to have it break down, and the company to not fix it.

I suggested my mom and I go to Bestbuy but my dad says we should get a newspaper to see which store’s having a good sale. I say fine, and when my mom and I go to Walmart to get some things we pick up the newspaper. The whole thing goes to crap because my dad’s talking about stuff, I have no clue what it means and I just tell my mom we should go to Bestbuy because everything makes no sense. Anyways, so if you guys have a really good laptop that you love will you tell me what brand it is so I can take it into consideration when laptop shopping. I still have my mind set on a MacBook, my mom says if I can’t find a PC I like at Bestbuy then I can get my Mac.
