Male Female

When it comes to something I want to replace, the first thing that comes to mind is my laptop. I've had it for three years, a gift from my mom for my 14th birthday in ninth grade. Since then, I've used it for everything – studying, entertainment like watching movies, listening to music, and playing games. But lately, it's showing signs of being outdated. First, it constantly glitches and takes forever to boot up. Second, it has storage problems. It only has 74 GB, and the system takes up half of that. This means I can't download applications like Photoshop to learn new skills or store more documents. I'd love to have a laptop with more storage. Third, the battery is a problem. It drains quickly and shows signs of being worn out.
