"Don't look too interested, I want to try and get the price down"
"It's green"
"It's older than I really want"
"Remember, we don't _have_ to buy this one"

I have a new car.
It's a Daewoo 1.5 somethingorrather, 1995.
we got it for $3000, fool of a seller told us he was off to Melbourne on Sunday.
It was a decent shade of green, sorta dark misty grey/green.

The specs (including trivialities that I wanted)
- rearview mirrors both sides
- panic handles
- a door pocket (too big for the street directory to sit in nicely unfortunately but the first aid kit sits in nicely
- working cab light
- cassette player
- cigarette lighter in close proximity to cassette player (for car discman)

BUT
I don't need the cigarrette lighter because this thing has a
SIX STACKER CD PLAYER!!!!! *squeals*
I don't know how to work it yet but the guy who sold it said he'd drop by the instructions, and if not a geeky friend should be able to sort it out for me

Also has air-con, mmm, that'll be a pleasant new experince this summer
Intermittent wipers
A more powerful engine (sure it eats a tad more fuel but not too much)
nice upholstery, comfy seats
a covered boot

Engine got rebuilt in April
Rego has already been paid for 6 months...

it's so cool!!! There will be much showingoffness in the weeks to come.

I am 42% Grunge

What's this? The longest I've been without a shower is three days? Not even close, man. I should go sit out in the rain for a week.

Take the Grunge Test at fuali.com

I was into the music, not the lifestyle. But in 1995 I was a severe grungie chick. See, I know the guy in that pic is Dave Abbruzzese, the guy who is, or at least was, the drummer for Pearl Jam

I am 31% Raver

Well, I may have been to a rave. I probably know a bunch of ravers, but they may think of me as an outsider. That's okay, at least I am not a complete freak.

Take the Raver Test at fuali.com

uhhh, I stood outside a rave once, and the only reason I wanted to go in was for the carnival ride inside, but at that price, screw that.

I am 46% Metal Head

Most other metal-heads acknowledge my presence, but they laugh at me behind my back. Maybe I need to stop spending all that money on haircuts and invest in a few Pantera T-shirts.

Christ I am mediocre...

I am 18% Geek

I wanna be a geek. But I'm not. Why would I even want to be one. Do I think it's fun? I should try writting an online test application at 1 am in my underwear

Take the Geek Test at fuali.com

No. No I do not even WISH I was geek. bah

I am 10% Punk Rock

It's not a fashion craze, or even a cool thing to do. I should just swallow it, get Lost, and take my friends with me.

heh heh heh

I am 33% Goth

Goth ny night, normal by day. Deep in my heart I know I am evil, but not on the company's time. I do need to eat.

Take the Goth Test at fuali.com

eep!!

I am 54% Internet Addict

I am pretty addicted, but there is hope. I think I'm just well connected to the internet and technology, but it's really a start of a drug-like addiction. I must act now! Unplug this computer!

I can stop anytime I like!! Really...

Darn daddy long legs decided to join me in the shower, made me jump a mile, then calmly made his way back up his web. I'm not arachnophobic, I just don't like spiders jumping out at me. And I believe it's the whole "eight-legged walk" thing that freaks most people out. At least a daddy long legs is harmless, unlike the white tail that once wanted to shower with me, he got squished and washed down the plughole, I do not shower with white tails.

Tomorrow will be hectic.
Uni till 9:30. Op-shop in Freo with Wendy till afternoon starts, go to Maree's and catch up with her and see how big Hanna has grown. Evening shopping with mum, hopefully score some nice new clothes.

Must remember to
- check conads signs at uni
- write down stuff I need for field work and get it together
- stick money in wallet for possible train ride
- figure out what I'm wearing Friday nyte and get stuff together
