Dear De Anza Wi-Fi,
I know you and I have never really seen eye to eye. You always tell my computer you are there for me, yet you back out at the last second, interrupting the connection or just vanishing entirely.
What do you have against me? Is it that I’m not using a Mac? I see some guys at the other table using a Macbook browsing Facebook right now, and I’m still unconnected. Who are those guys anyway? You’ve never introduced me. What do you have against Windows?
Maybe you are tired of our old hangout spot. I know the library isn’t the most fun place to hang out, but sometimes I just need to get work done, and if you aren’t there to help me I just can’t do it. It seems like all you want to do is hang around outside or in the middle of class when there is other stuff I need to do.
If you’re mad that I tie you up streaming videos from Youtube, I’m sorry. To be fair, everyone else does, yet you don’t single them out. I continue to be the only guy who can’t connect.
How come when I can connect, I have to hold my laptop at an angle like I’m looking for good cellphone reception? We both know that’s not how it works, and it’s a little immature if you’re doing it for some cheap laughs.
I hope you don’t take this letter as filled with rage. While I am, it’s not my intention that you take it that way. I just wish we could connect like we used to back in the spring. Remember browsing Tumblr for the stupidest blogs we could find? Those were the days.
Maybe we could make a deal? I won’t bug you as much, but when I do need you, you need to be there at that moment. I can’t handle you being half an hour late after I let you know I need your help.
I miss you Wi-Fi. I don’t know what I did, but please, let’s bury the hatchet, and try connecting one more time.
Yours truly,
Tony Barraza
