I'm Back. For A Minute.

*twirls like a twirly thing* I decided to give SUP the opportunity to either make their case or hang themselves. They've got about two months, so I'll be updating until then. Or maybe until after Dragon*Con. We'll see. So tell me anything I've missed that I haven't commented on.

My friend has a Nissan Versa and really likes it. foreverseenstar really wants a Honda Fit.

Congrats on the GPA! That's awesome!

And I used to be a Neopets addict, but I managed to wean myself off. If I ever go back again I know it'll be all over...

Does the Versa have the giddyup and go in traffic? Simple question, I know, but you've seen Atlanta traffic, right? I thought it looked nifty, seems big enough for a single person. I don't really need a sedan. My school seems to have quite a few of both models. Did foeverseenstar say why she likes the Fit? I know it's been in other markets forever but I know very little about it. And as long as I don't get the orange, I'll be a-okay.

I was so proud of that GPA. I've never, ever gotten on a Dean's List in all my on-off years of college and it was the first full-time semester I take. I find that rather awesome.

I use Neopets as an information diffuser. Sometimes you just can't handle anymore information, ya know? Especially after a test or final. And I can scream and curse at the site without feeling so bad; better a game than my godmom. Frustration makes me cranky. Ask anyone who's ever been in the car with me.

I'll ask her about the Versa, but I haven't noticed problems with that. And yeah, Atlanta traffic is freakin' scary. Even in bumper to bumper somehow everyone is driving 70mph. foreverseenstar says she likes the Fit because it's a Honda and they're good, reliable cars that she's familiar with. She also thinks the Fit is really cute.

And I hear you on the Neopets. It's a great distraction.

Yay! I like making informed decisions, especially if I'm putting down a lot of money. I've seen some Versas go like 75-80mph on I-85, but I didn't know if it was anomaly. We have to go 70 mph in order to get to the areas where it's bumper-to-bumper. I usually fly on the highways at 70-75mph. I have to go into town a lot from the suburbs. Like I go to school 4 days a week right now and I'll do two next week.

Have you seen our traffic hours, though? 7:00-10:00am and 4:00-8:00pm. It's insane. Even on 2-85 where we're speed demons. The entire reason I looked at Nissan and Hondas was their reliability. I looked at the average gas mph for domestic, and yeah, no. I drive my mom's Taurus in this traffic. I have to fill up the tank like 3 days a week because of the crappy.

It's awesome for when I wanna kill someone. I can scream at the stupid flash games that never go fast enough.

I used to be a huge Neopets addict - it was my 'distraction', if you know what I mean. I do go there every now and then to keep my pets going, but I've lost interest in it for the most part...

Congrats on the GPA. I take it that is good, anyway...

I completely understand. I tend to leave it alone, except for doing the dailies, during the week. Too much school work, but when I'm stressed after a test or something, I use it to chill. I have a teeeeeeny bit of anger management issues. I just like zapping my pets with the lab rays and collecting money since I typically don't have it in my real life.

A 4.0 is a perfect GPA, so a 3.66 is really high. It's an awesome grade. It means I got 2 As and a B.

3.66 GPA Not too shabby!!

Love the icon. I love Donna Noble too. Totally surprised, but she's quickly become my favorite companion. I'll be sad to see her go.

Are you watching the eps as the air in the UK, or are you on the US ScFi channel schedule?

veracity June 9 2008, 03:54:24 UTC

I boughteded a Mac earlier today. Go team me!

And yes, my 3.66 was fucking awesome, I must admit. I was so surprised. And ecstatic.

*uses other Donna icon* I love and adore her so much. I like it when she tells him to stop being a moronic dick with a God complex. It's all kinds of awesome. I watch them on Sci Fi and the UK. Depending on my time.
