I mean, who cares a messenger bag with a laptop into an opera.  Especially into $86 seats?  So I left my bag with a fellow student at the lab who would be there until at least 11:30 pm.<\/p>\n<p>So on the way back, my friends were trying convince me to go home without getting my bag since we were on bus line directly to my house.  I refused.  I mean, the idea of not going home without my laptop makes me feel disoriented.  Ok, so I could use my desktop, but I hate its roar.<\/p>\n<p>But then when I finally got home (about 40 minutes later), I realized I have this thing with my computer that I prefer doing.  I mean, I can survive without it but my day feels incomplete.  Just like how I like taking a shower right before sleeping.  If I don\\&#8217;t, I just can\\&#8217;t&#8230;feel complete (whoa a sign of getting old).
