Horrible Things Do Happen To Good People

My laptop broke T__T *sobs*



My screen is literally DONE. I can't see shit! Pardon my french but this really upset me. I only had it for a month, A MONTH I TELL YOU, and my screen breaks. And it was no one's fault but my own. I was falling asleep while listening to music, and so I closed the top and set it beside my bed. Comman sense was screaming in my head, "Shelby, put your laptop up. You don't want it to get broken, do you?"

And what do I do? Well, I do what I do best and not listen to the smart voice in my head. Yeahh, I woke up about thirty mins later cause I had to pee. I went to get off the bed and I heard this loud whirring noise. Well, lets just say I woke up real fast, but not fast enough. I opened my laptop and all you could see is purple and blue and nothing else. I cried so hard.

The Bad News?
Every place I called said it would cost about $300 to fix. I was seriously depressed. Best Buy's Geek Squad needs to get kicked in the face. The lady on the phone said that it would cost $40 to send the laptop to the tech place, $90 just to have the technician LOOK at it. Not fix, look. So if my laptop wasn't fixable, I would've wasted $130. And I'm sorry, in this economy, you cannot waste money. Office Depot wasn't much better, but at least they would be able to fix it, for $300 and i would take like... two weeks to get my laptop back. I was getting seriously depressed.

The Good News?
Since I got my laptop from Aaron's, they said they would send my laptop to the tech place and fix it... for $160. EAT THAT BEST BUY AND OFFICE DEPOT!!! In. Your. Face. And they said they would push back my monthly payment so I didn't have to come up with all the money all at once. So now I'm saving up money and hopefully, I can get my laptop fixed soon. Kinda like a xmas present to myself :P
