Okay so this has happened. What now?

where do we go from here? from this point, which may very well be called the pinnacle of my digital life, and we can understand what that means having digested the concepts of tron and matrix and similar, and even as we do it is worth stating, for what its worth, which is what we are discussing.

imagine an operating system, an entire operating system on a floppy disk. the thought itself feels so old in the head, floppy disk, the title itself seems to have migrated and found peace in the realm of jokes. an operating system on a floppy disk, or my first computer, total capacity 4 GB, and filling that 4 GB is a fact worth bragging about.

the first time i owned a 500 GB hard drive, i didn't think i could ever fill it. and in that helpless realization all i could do was make a wallpaper for my desktop with two equal sized rectangles, the one on the left containing a hard-drive picture, seagate barracuda, and the other containing a question mark, a visual conversion of the idea of the phrase "500 GB: what will you do with it?" or "what does 500 GB mean to you?"

Coming to present moment, you will excuse the fast forward if it seems like one, to the present day, which contained a morning time phase that contained the hour when The Momentary Lapse occurred, the purpose of this blog post is to chart out a path of what to do.

Tonight I could keep the laptop turned on and Stellar Phoenix scanning the 2TB which is the same process the three vendors at Sim Lim offered to do, and i said no to all of them, so i must do it.

If i do it, i will be unable to carry my laptop to the school tomorrow, which is fine actually, i plan to leave for chinatown anyway, and buy some touristy things.

so now i must start the process and go to sleep. its 3:20 am.
