Dear Journal,
So the school computers have no cybersecurity at all. I’m not sure if this is a case of them having some in place previously and it getting disabled too many times to be worth replacing, or if it never had any to begin with. I guess it doesn’t really matter. No cybersecurity means nothing stopping me from downloading a copy of Dead Eye Poker to earn some pocket money. On the bright side, I'm $42 richer than I was this morning. On the dark side, my opponents were all literal monsters, so when they found out they lost to a high school student they got nasty.
Most of them kept it to insults, which, you know, sticks and stones and all that jazz. The hag, though, she sent a virus that immediately infected every computer in the library. I guess that's the dark side of not having any cybersecurity. Long story short (I know, too late, haha), nobody's allowed back into the library until the computers stop overheating and ejecting phlegm from all their openings. Did I mention nasty?
The worst part, even worse than the half hour I spent in the decontamination shower, is that Dr Mother is once again putting me into quarantine until she can be sure I didn't get infected, being partially run by hardware myself. Yes, you know what that means: I'm grounded until further notice.
No hugs and kisses today,
Betty
