the verge of tears

I am very irritated and frustrated.
Firstly, in the background is Ten Promises To My Dog or something like that playing. Yes, I am AWARE the show is about DOGS, explain the title otherwise, so you don't have to keep repeating it. I am not your 92-year-old hard-of-hearing grandmother. Who is incidentally in KK Hospital, Ward 15 because she fell down, not hearing quite clearly that there is a step in front of her and her walking stick.
Not to freaking mention that my family members periodically make comments on the movie (my mother is summarizing the show for my brother who hasn't watched it yet. What, may I ask, is the reason of that? The show is ALREADY SHOWING! Just look at the screen lah!). PLUS, the movie is in JAPANESE, a language which I AM UNABLE TO UNDERSTAND.
"I don't want to watch it, thank you!"
Secondly, my father somehow during my period of computer abstinence managed to use my laptop WITHOUT MY PERMISSION (hello, I know you bought it but you GAVE IT TO ME? And don't I HAVE THE RIGHT TO KNOW WHEN MY POSSESSIONS ARE USED? HELLO?
What's worse, he managed to spoil it. To the verge that IT HAD TO BE REFORMATTED FOR THE DUNNO HOW MANY TIME.
I am SICK of having MY laptop spoiled by various family members. And getting it reformatted, thus effectively ERASING MY WORK. And this time, my father so calmly told me (to be precise, when I was in the shower. SERIOUSLY, I WAS SHOWERING.) that now I couldn't even save my work in my thumbdrive because the laptop was hanging or something to that extent.
Apparently though, he was wrong because I found my content all intact today. I was delighted at this and proceeded to open GIMP.
You know, I WAS ACTUALLY LOOKING FORWARD TO SKINNING AFTER SEVERAL MONTHS, WITH IDEAS AND ALL? ALL PREPARED AND JUST WAITING FOR THE LAPTOP SO THAT I COULD WORK THE IDEAS OUT?
Turns out GIMP was somehow damaged by no doubt, my father's relentless tinkering with it. IT COULD NOT BE USED.
At that point I was suitably irritated and frustrated but decided to like, you know, download GIMP again?
No such luck. Apparently, there was no enough memory space. Now, just IF my father had not kindly downloaded several of HIS work documents (and some rather large ones) onto MY LAPTOP, it wouldn't be like that, would it? :) What, the freaking, was his own computer for anyway? Shouldn't he use his own computer to download those stuff?!
Anyways.
I was VERY rantish at this but proceeded to delete the damaged GIMP and download a new one.
Oh, what happened then? you ask.
I don't know frankly, what I was bleedin' expecting, but it wasn't a pop-up box stating there was a problem (I don't understand technie talk, but I'm very sure what was stated wasn't good. That is because the GIMP download window closed itself and did the same everytime I tried).
Wow. Great. I come back from the PSLE, having worked and not used my laptop and I come back to find that I cannot GIMP on it. Who knows WHAT ELSE IS DAMAGED?
What a great start to the celebrations.
