Guess what? Thanks to special offers and trade-ins and educational discount etc. etc. I got a new shiny iPad to replace my 8 year old MacBook for less than half-price? about half-price? So much money off anyway. It’s so much lighter (which my back is grateful for as I’ll have to carry it around campus) but the coolest thing about it I’ve discovered so far is the drawing capabilities.

Oh, oh, you know how terrible my handwriting is? Actually you probably don’t but it’s bad. Well this machine can actually recognize it so I can annotate extracts for my course, I can turn notes into text with the touch of a button. It can split-screen! Split-screen! So I can have research on one window, my essay in another. It’s going to be super good for academics but like I said the coolest thing about it is the drawing.

You know I like to play with fanart sometimes well I’m going to be doing that again. I’m stoked to see what I can do with this new piece of kit. Anyway fic first, play with shiny toys later! I know this is a random post but I just wanted to share my excitement. It’s just cool 🙂
