Well, for once, I have all my schoolwork done and tell the three people that watch me what's going on in my life...
Well, I'm beginning to understand that schoolwork is a necessary evil, and that I can deal with it, especially because there is a rediculously bright light at the end of the tunnel. I've also realized that having something to take my mind off of school for a while is really nice. I'm working two jobs, for around 20 hours a week total, really giving my mind a break. And the $250 every two weeks ain't bad...
I've been trying to go through the 70-something deviations I've amassed from my watched people, and right now I'm down to 44. I'll keep working at it. I really appreciate all the art you guys put out - most of it is just plain unbelievable. I can't understand how to do most of it, and that makes it even better. If i knew how, it would degrade the piece, because I could just say, "Well, all they did was to blahbetyblahbetyblah."
I've just found a new desktop background and skin...

My 1994 Volvo 850 is at the beginning of the end of it's life. At 230,000 miles (we think - the odometer broke at 153,xxx), it's going early for a pre-acquisition Volvo, but I drive it like it's a sports car, you know, how it's meant to be driven. It's an auto, but I think the clutch is 98% gone, and my turbo might be dying (NOOOOOOO!!!!). The clutch is always engaged... It gets annoying when every shift is a huge jerk.
I've got my next car all picked out - a 1995 Honda del Sol VTEC. I've always liked the style and practicality of these guys, plus it'll cost me less than $5000 and then no more than another $8000 to totally pimp it out - new paint, body kit, CF everything, turbo, the whole deal. I should be able to take any self respecting S2000, the del Sol's older brother...
I've got $1250 saved, so I should be able to pay cash for one by the end of the summer.
