Nice. How is R2? I tried the first game demo and it kinda sucked. Could have been the controls but I dunno.

Agreed. I wasn't actually sure of the rule or if there even was one, before.

I got suspended for being late to 1st class along with about 150+ other kids yesterday... Most people tend to go to the gym, library, or any other class during a 20 minute break called "Activity period" and we usually get dismissed from there along with a "blah blah blah you have 5 minutes to get to class annoucement". Nothing of that sort, not even a warning bell or even a "2 seconds to get to class". Now 1/4 of the school suspended and if enough kids do their part and tell their parents what happened, we could possibly get the adminstartion fired. :roll:

Now i'm kicked out the house until school ends today and probally tommorow as well...

Somewhat...?

Are you kidding? That's one hell of an understatement right there...

In other news, Second Life can be addicting as hell. I might actually have to make my own account. :o

Once you get a job in SL doing offers for lindens, you'll never stop. I even passed my SL job as a real life job :D I eventually saved up enough to buy a nascar truck, F1 car and various baubles. Then my account got frozen after i brought some lindens with a friend's credit card.

I still can't remember my password :x

@ Donald: How were you making money? Obviously, I don't have a credit card, and other than DJing the only thing I think I could really do would be to be a bouncer for a club.

Gee, hanging out in a club all day long... sounds horrible. :mrgreen:

*bump*

Motherf*cker... I WON TEH LOTTARY, BIOTCH!

Okay, well I guessed the number. I can't actually claim the money, but I can hold it against my mom! :mrgreen:

The funny thing is that I bet that it would win playing, and said if it did win that I would get the money, being nice enough to give her $5. She of course, thinking that it would never win, "agreed."
Like I said, she can keep the money, though. At the most she can buy me my headphones now. :P

(Only an $80 payout, but with only spending $1 on the ticket, who can complain? lol.)

You should apply for a restaraunt in your first life and put second life as your experience. :D

I already work in a restaurant. Actually, I just got off work. :P

I now have an excuse to go buy a turntable pad, though. :P

1. You need an excuse?
2. Buying it for a game isn't much of an excuse.

Yes, for the reason below... and the reason I wasn't going to buy one, despite wanting one badly, was that I figured I'd never use it. This way, I actually can/will.

So, let's recap the past two weeks:

Got 4 more Computer Repair Jobs
Brought up 4 grades in school
Finished in my Confirmation book, (I've only got 2 weeks left in the course)
Finished Cotillion class
Repaired friendships with a few old friends
Might pick up a damaged Dell XPS for $100
Got a free computer CRT for a dual-screen setup
Won the lottery (OMG)]
...and next week my contract ends, so may payments will go from $70 to $20 a month, once I move to the family's plan.

Let's see if I can keep this good-luck string going.
My VW GTI
(Yup, that's my reason.)

I actually found the exact version I wanted, with the features I wanted, locally. If it's still there, we may go look at it come Spring Break (3 weeks.)

Maybe if I'm lucky, my money will be un-frozen (it's gaining interest,) at the end of April. If I'm more lucky, this car will still be there.

If I'm supernatural, I may get my car ahead of time. :D
(Still, I've learned from experience not to get my hopes up about this kinda' stuff. Especially when I haven't earned the extra 5k to heighten my 10k budget, yet.)

I envy you. :(

I want those moneys, then again I'm probably gonna own my dad's 94 Corolla, which is quite nice. I like how it drives.

Lol, we got all of $80 out of it.

Unless you're talking about my 10k budget, which I'll admit is quite large for a starter car. The bad news is that means I get no say in what I get, unless I earn my own extra money, lol.

..Hmm, I feel a bit like a prick now. >.<*
I didn't mean to sound like I'm bragging, it was just totally surprised that I found that, specifically where it is.
None-the-less, Corolla's are quite nice. My sister actually has a Corolla, and while I know that the two models are very different, it's pretty nice to drive. :wink:

College account. One was dedicated to me, my siblings and my cousins each from my deceased grandfather.

...not the one who left me my 944. Kinda odd, I must've had some rich a** grandparents.

LOL! Try Singapore for a change.. A typical 2009 Toyota Corolla Altis will set you back at $50,000 for the base model, inclusive of road tax. :P

$10K is really nothing here for a car. :P
