I GOT A NEW LAPTOP

Hello, ladies and gentlebloggers! I have fantastic news- I recently bought myself a new laptop, and it arrived this evening! I may or may not have completely forgotten about going to karate in my excitement.

It's a Dell Inspiron 15 5000 series 2-in-1, so I can flip the lid all the way back and turn it into a tablet. A rather large tablet, mind you, but here's the awesome thing-

IT'S LIKE HAVING A HUGE DIGITAL SKETCHBOOK.

The laptop came with a free trial of Autodesk SketchBook, which I used to create this lovely quick sketch fox:


(I had to take a screenshot... I don't think the free trial has a way to export photos as anything other than a TIF, and Blogger doesn't like those)

It was pretty neat! It's a bit different from my Wacom Bamboo Splash tablet, which didn't have a screen of its own. I'm looking forward to getting a better stylus to work with.

This laptop is also pretty great for reading comic books online. I usually use my Marvel Unlimited app to read comics on my iPhone, but the screen is kind of small. My laptop screen is anything BUT small. One could say that the digital comics I'm reading are larger than life. Because they are. They are literally bigger than actual comic books.

I'm still getting used to Windows 10 and my new hardware, but I'm pretty psyched about my new laptop so far!

DISNEY WORLD!!! Spring Break 2015

Blogger's note: This post was supposed to be published over a week ago, but for some reason, my mobile app didn't upload it. This is the only post I have so far detailing my Spring Break Adventure at Disney World; all the other nights, I was too exhausted to do anything but collapse. You can ask my sister. I kept falling asleep when I was supposed to be helping her plan the next day in the parks. I probably will hit at least the higlights at some point, though, because the trip was AWESOME!!!



Hi, friends! 

It's Spring Break, and I've arrived at Walt Disney World with my family! We're staying at the Art of Animation resort. My bed folds out of the wall and can be used as a table during the day. It's kinda cool.

Tomorrow we're going to Animal Kingdom! Should be awesome. Disney World is my absolute FAVORITE place to go on vacation, and I've been looking forward to this trip for a long time.

This is our first Disney trip using MagicBands. So far, I'm a fan. Your park tickets, room keys, and charge account are all on the Bands. They're completely waterproof, conveniently attached to your wrist so you don't lose them, and you can personalize them, too!

We didn't do a whole lot today. We checked in, ate at the food court, and wandered around the Art of Animation resort as well as the Pop Century resort, which is just across the lake from our area and easily accessible via a bridge.

Very excited about this week. My family and I have made some FastPass reservations (because that's a thing now). My sister and I are going to do a little casual DisneyBounding. We brought a few green accessories for St. Patrick's Day. We've got a few dinner reservations at some cool restaurants, too!

Until next blog, have a magical day!
