To take apart and put together, or not to.
There are some things that can only be enjoyed when you are alone. What are some? Let’s just say that driving can’t be enjoyed when you are contesting for the wheel with somebody who is in the passenger’s seat.
Obviously, I am under the legal age for driving, so that is an example that doesn’t apply to me. What applies to me is what I just did. Which is totally reformat my memory card for my hand phone, and then piece together all the files I had once long ago.
To start “adjusting” your files on your piece of electronic wizardry, you need to get to know your own gadget. Which in my case is a Nokia 5320. I learnt the hard way that you have to understand where your gadget keeps it’s things. To cut a long story short, my photographs no longer exist. (Which is why I am unable to post any pictures.)
If you want to see the long string of IT jargon that I sifted through to dismember my memory, you can’t. Basically, all you do is just methodically edit files, create new folders, drag and drop… And keep a cool head.
There are things that you do just for the sake of doing, and this is one of them. The end result at the end of it all is definitely well worth it. To know that you are able to take apart and piece back your own gadget is quite a nice thing, as it strengthens your “bond” with whatever that inanimate object you possess, and somehow makes that gadget more “yours”.
