Not only are the Gators on their way to Indianaplois for the Final Four, but so am I. I managed to get through the phone lines, and get student tickets to Indy for the Final Four. It's $170 a ticket (which I consider a 'life-experience' fee) and a 13+ hour drive, but isn't cheering on the team you've been yelling your lungs out for the last 5 years what college is all about? Me and 3 other friends are leaving Friday to get up there, and hopefully won't be coming back down to Gainesville until Tuesday evening. This almost makes up for losing in the first weekend all the other years I've been a student here, and vindicates my decision to stay at UF for grad school another year! GO GATORS!!!
If I couldn't have figured out my Spring Break plans, I suppose I could have always spent it in Walmart like this guy. It does have everything you'd ever need after all.
I've also been looking for a new car the last few weeks. I most likely won't be buying it until mid-Fall, but I may need to get it earlier if my parents car breaks down over the summer. Currently my wheels include the city bus and a bicycle. My parents never gave me a car, and I was cut off once I graduated high school so having a car wasn't really an option until now that I've managed to save up some money from internships and will have a full time job in January. I've managed to go through 5 years of college without a car, thanks to having patience with the bus system and not being afraid to actually walk places. That and a girlfriend and lots of awesome friends with cars. But as much as I'd love to live off public transportation to get to and from work once I graduate, I'd still need a car for weekend trips and things. Hence why I need to buy one before I graduate. The top runner right now is an Acura TSX, followed by the new '07 Toyota Camry Hybrid, and the ever popular Honda Accord. Once I get it I'll definitely be posting a ton of pictures, being it's my very first vehicle ever.
