One Laptop Per Child

It's my birthday.
Time moves so fast in the early morning. I'm slightly hungover at the moment, nullified by a few rips off the dab pen. I woke up to my roommate blasting music at 3:00 AM, and, not being able to fall back asleep, I decided to do some homework.
I ended up down a rabbit hole when I was reminded of a commercial I saw in my childhood that I can't seem to find... so I guess it's lost media. It was with a charity with a really fascinating history and downfall called One Laptop Per Child. Obviously, at the time in which I saw the ad for this I had no idea about any of the issues this charity had, so it was weird to learn that it failed. Anyways, I could have sworn the ad was with McDonalds or Gogurt or something... something very childish. Or maybe it wasn't, I don't know. I'd love to see it again and get that good rush of nostalgia and satisfaction. Lost media really is such an enriching hobby because I always learn about some obscure thing like this.
It's supposed to be warm out today. I will be doing work for most of it, but I am having a small online party with my friends tonight. I'll probably get lots of texts from my relatives which will be nice. For dinner I'll get takeout as a treat to myself. I could use a good meal. But for now I think I should sleep off my hangover.
