That sucks... I like to party and drink and what not, but I do it in moderation. It's usually just one night of the weekend and only a few drinks.

Student loans FTL. I think I only had one loan for Iowa... it was $750 and I have to start paying it in Feb for like $125 every 4 months of something... may just know the whole thing out in one payment.

Lets see... Iowa came out to about $34k a year...

I had a lot of grants because I was living with my mom and she was unemployed (3 little brothers) when we applied for FAFSA. And then I had a few scholarships that were like $2500 a year... the rest came out of our pocket. It was around $6k a semester of my own money, which I'm almost done paying my dad back for. So yeah... loaded, no, lucky, yes.

Poor in pocket, but rich in heart is what I always say!

When I go back to school again I'll have to take loans out from teh bank if I can, and maybe FAFSA will be nice to me again because I'll be living on my own.

I think the miata is a guy's car. It is a cool fun small rwd car. My friend has it and it's crazy. Some girls car IMO are the toyota celica and the acura rsx. I almost never see a guy driving those.

If I was forced to get a Miata it would be the new style one...

My definition of one... the stupid man's S2000. They can be monster track cars handling wise... and maybe speed wise if you swap in an LS1

My friend wants one, and I hate the things, think they are either chick cars(esp the old pop up headlight ones) or mid life crisis cars, because all you see is a bunch of 60 year olds driving them.

Yeah they handle good, and he wants a mazdaspeed one so its turbo charged, but you cant do anything to change the fact that its a miata.
