After driving my van for about a month straight and going back to the TSX, I realized how bad the body roll is on the Ody LOL....

He's asking if you're going to be a full-time student (12 hours) in fall. Come on bro, putting the Asians are smart stereotype to rest.

Lmao. “asians are smart” stereotype is like half the story. During my internship at UC Davis hospital, all the Asian dudes would act a fool then say, “hey man, we’re trained professionals!”

Uh oh... Now Im gunna have to hear complaining from you too about servicing parts lmao

Well anyways, it'll be good experience when you come to design side. You can incorporate some of the things you'll learn there and make sure you don't design parts that are difficult to service haha

My only advice is that it's a slippery slope working and going to school. Especially when you are working more than going to class. You end up neglecting your classes, or drop a class, then it's difficult to keep going when they get really hard. I would work/ take as many classes as your schedule can handle. My

REKT.
Some fuckin mexican dude was fucking texting and driving and slammed right the fuck into me. fuck man.

I've never been hit before so I have no idea how this works. I already filed a claim.

If the insurance company gives me a check i'd like to just order the Aero bumper and a new reflector and fix it myself.

People that text while driving piss me off. They either drive shit slow or you just know they're about to fuck up. Luckily the damage is only cosmetic and you get a new bumper, too bad it was the front one.

The exaust tip is bent and fell right off but the actual muffler tip looks ok, still straight. I'm gonna get a better look in the morning...
