I'm suprised you're not having problems already.

It's possible to prune OS X by removing or not installing unnecessary 
printer drivers (some 200 to 300MB) or unnecessary languages. As a temp 
fix, check out /Library/Printers/ and trash drivers you don't need. But 
you definitely need a new drive.

128 GB.

Get a new drive without delay. With a bit of search, you'll find 
replacement instructions on the 'net (e.g.,
