Got a Car!

I purchased a car today, 1999 Alero:
A picture of same car/model
The guy is tuning it, and giving it to me next friday. I can't wait.

Working fulltime over summer vacation programming is finally paying off.

In brazil you can work full time a life and might be unable to buy it. :S Congrats for the car it is awsome

great! congratulations buddy! you're only a step away from your first romantic encounter in
a car make sure it is legal and drive carefully if you're moving

but seriously, great accomplishment, once again, congrats. I know purchasing your very first
car feels great. I wish it takes you to many exciting places.

Looks nice. I don't think I'll be getting a car any time soon, the petrol/gas is just too expensive - ~1 pound (1 euro 20) per litre!!!! So I cycle to work, about 5 miles each way. Sigh. Not much chance of a 'romantic encounter' on a two wheeled bicycle, eh

More chance on a bicycle than on my bus. Unless I want to
get arrested. Which I don't.

but the bike goes way too fast to smell girls' hair.

Not when I go up a hill to work, and up another hill from work! All the way both ways.

You must live on a geographical phenomenon. I assume you also go down a hill both ways at some point.

Hey, I live near loch ness too ... reckon it's a conspiracy?

I NEVER SMELLED HER hair! I simply admired the ponytail-
through-the-back-of-her-hat approach she took. It was sweet.

I won't be having any romantic encounters any time soon in this car.
Because of graduated licensing, I can only drive myself into January.
