From middle school:
Working on essay in bed late at night
Finishes, saves, and closes document
Gets off bed to print essay
Laptop falls off bed crushing flashdrive underneath
Cries

Another story from middle school, but happier:
Forgets flashdrive with all my work on it in library
Goes back to check and it's missing
No one has seen it
Gets it in an envelope one day during class a week later

That's why I use Dropbox... my Fossils notesheet is too big to attach to email messages! :lol: Then again, Classlink works pretty well too, but I never use it.

I'll start this off...
I lost my flash drive and I tried to get the office to ask about it on the announcements. Then I asked all of my teachers and my friends 2-3 times if they had seen it. Afterwards I cried (not making this up I actually did), and then I tore down my room and locker looking for it. After that I screamed in my pillow. And FINALLY, I found it in my front pocket of my backpack in a zipped up area where I realized I had put it for safekeeping. Smart right?

So yeah, that's my story of my lost flash drive. And I haven't lost it since :D
I just go get my backup...

It's what we use now instead of floppy disks and cassette tapes. Does that help?

Google Drive is the most beautiful thing.
Scioly isn't a club, or an organization. It is a lifestyle.
