DELL LATITUDE 3190 2-IN-1
The Laptop that started it all. It was the laptop I used in highschool. For all my homework but it had a secondary purpose, I would save everything I liked from the internet.
YES MAN
I would abuse the free “One Drive” that they made available to us to save carti leaks, game files, images, which I would later use and repurpose in my art. Thats kind of how I became familiar with it.
I was kind of a bum with it because I could’ve done more. I lacked the vision required and I didnt think I was going to seriously be an “artist”. Plus I wasn’t my own entity yet.
I USED TO THINK IT WAS TOO LATE
It wasn’t until the end of highschool that it kind of happened for me. Where it finally clicked. Completely accidental too because I had already been making art but it was to make my friends laugh. To play jokes and “go hard”. It never had occurred to me that I could make it a pathway. Life was honestly dull even with my art.
FOUND OUT THE TRUTH THEN;
LOVE IS THE ONLY THING WORTH PURSUING
-I connected with 2 people, ARTISTS I mean real artists. They are the most important people ive ever met. They deserve their own pages. Thats when life exploded, boom overnight I was new. I was going through a really bad depression, nothing was going right and my life was kind of a failure. I eventually graduate. I had nothing. (I was unemployed for a year and wasn’t going to school) I had nothing but time. I spent it figuring out who I was.
DELL SCHOOL DONATED LAPTOP
It was October 2023 when my “everything”(the only person that I had) let me know about our school district giving out the school laptops. I got the form, signed it and shipped it off. I think I got an email of the pickup date. The day I was supposed to pick it up I was actually in Mexico, luckily my mom was able to retrieve it for me.
DEFINED ME
This piece of technology created me. Its crazy. Its where I started building this website, Its where I started programming. Everything started there, Ive tried so many things I cant list everything. I guess the most recent thing that its done for me (we’re talking as recent as today 10/18/26, 3 years later) is helping me mod Super Mario Strikers. Thats also where my brother made his NSMBDS rom aswell.
THREE SUMMERS;
TO FINALLY BE ON TIME
No matter how low you think you are there is always a way. You can do it. Give it all you got. If you wanna bet it all, on yourself. YOU SHOULD! It pays.
