Changing laptop is one of my worst nightmare because I can't seem to imagine to replace my one and only laptop and it's been over 5 years since I bought this laptop. Yes, it's been 5 years already and I still use my laptop computer but even if it's been 5 years, I have also upgrading my laptop from the RAM, the keyboard, and other stuffs because it's been slowing down after 2 or 3 years of using it.

My laptop is my only source of income from before up until today and this is where I started building my career for the last 5 years and it's been part of my life because this is where I get my daily needs and stuffs. I still remember after I get this laptop is that my heart is beating fast and I feel like one of my dream is fulfilled but it is not paid on cash but on installment. I was really happy that I own a laptop after I graduated and it's one of my biggest dream to get my very own laptop. It's thanks to my family who supported my financially from providing some capital on buying this laptop.

So, after 5 years of using my very own laptop, there had been challenges, some were charger problems, boot time problems, and many more and I think it is time to buy a new one for a laptop because my laptops serves me for more than 5 years in my hand. Today, my laptops lifeline hangs on the charger because the battery were damaged and if there were no electricity, then I can't open my laptop. There were also cracks and dents on the outside but the insides were really good.

Just yesterday, I bought a 2nd hand laptop and the owner of the laptop is also one of my friend and he wants to sell it because he wants to buy another kind of gadget. I really like the laptop that he sells because it had already graphics card and it's really cheap.

One thing that I focus more when buying a laptop is the graphics card and also the processor. If the there is graphics card, then it means that it is good because that is needed when you have a high specifications needed for an app or a game. The processor is also one of the main reason that I look into a laptop because if the processor is CELERON, then that means that it's a cheaper laptop and it's one of the oldest version of a processor in a laptop.

For the specification of the laptop that my friend sell is by far exceeds my liking. So, in the end, I gather some money to buy the laptop of my friend and I will use some of my Hive to compensate the other missing payment of my friend from the laptop because I will use the new laptop for blogging and article inside Hive and also to use it for my work.

On the other hand, I will give my older laptop to my wife so that she can also apply on the work that I had now but in the process, I will need to buy another battery for this laptop so that the laptop is good working and it will not need to charge all the time to open the laptop.
