My mother bought it for me.
How to have a laptop
How I did it: I got my laptop when I graduated high school because I need it for college. It is so nice. I'm really excited to start college. Macbooks are much better that PCs, especially for school presentations and such.
Lessons & tips: Definitely get an Apple.

diosagoddess is anticipating the end of her management training
I need a laptop for my practicum manuscript. I’ll finish my practicum next Saturday and I must immediately start doing my paper. I must finish it before the 5th of May, in time for my adviser to check my draft while we’re attending the PSM convention in Boracay.
Actually, I can do the paper using the dorm computers. That would be a lot cheaper than buying a laptop. That would only be 15 pesos for an hour. So 1000 pesos would be more than enough for me to finish my paper. The problem with the dorm computers is my access to them. I cannot use them anytime. I have to wait for a student dorm assistant to accompany me to the computer room and wait for me. With that arrangement, working on my paper in the morning is definitely out. The dorm assistants are in school at that time. At night, I can’t stay up too late because they also have to sleep for their classes the next day. A lot of things to consider. I may end up getting so pissed off I won’t be able to start with my paper. And that would be heartbreaking. That paper is the last hurdle I must pass for me to graduate! That is the last thing! I can’t afford to not graduate as soon as possible. I’m already delayed as it is (by almost 2 months).
So, I really have to have a laptop. It is portable. I can bring it with me anywhere and therefore work on my paper anywhere and anytime the mood strikes me. If my adviser sees anything wrong with my draft, I can immediately correct it on the spot, with him looking on. In the long run, I can save by cutting or eliminating my time in computer cafes. I can also use it for work and other things.
It is decided. Before this month ends, I must decide on a way of acquiring a laptop and see it through.

I want to have one for next semester. It would be much, much better if it’s wifi capable so I wouldn’t have to spend for internet cafes. The question here is how and where am I going to get one? I’ll think about it carefully over the break
I envy people having their own laptops. I’m still saving for one…
I still don’t know what brand to buy? Any recommendations?
Here’s the catch, I am only on a limited budget.
