(OPENER)

Although I value many of my possessions, I couldn’t live without my laptop, so I’m gonna to tell you about that. 

(BASIC INFORMATION)

I have a MacBook pro which is quite an expensive computer but I bought it second-hand from my friend so it was cheaper than buying it new. Fortunately, she hadn’t used it much so it was in mint condition when I first started using it. In fact. I’ve had for about 3 years and it hasn’t given me any trouble.

I’ve probably used it everyday since I bought it. I prepare lessons and presentations for my classes on it. When I’m not using it for those things, it’s a great entertainment device. I’m a big fan of movies and often stream the latest films on Netflix. 

(TWO PARTS)

I love my laptop for two reasons. 

First of all, the processor is really fast. My previous laptop was so slow, it took ages to get anything done. My MacBook can do everything I want it to and I don’t get stressed out when I have a deadline. 

Moreover, the screen is amazing. It has a high-definition screen which makes watching movies a pleasure. When I turn all the lights out, it’s almost as good as being at the cinema!

I hope I can continue using this computer for the next few years.
