    At least now your future education is a breeze.

    TIP-if you want to go further education do it for yourself, having material goods such as cars incase you pass means you only want the prize, not the journey involved.

    ...I'm the guy who didn't see the reward for education, now I work in rap jobs...so...

    Exactly.

    Lesson-parents are not a good reason to go for further education

    Because it's better than ranting about how fucked up life is ;)

    Anyway, go for what you want, at least you have a direction unlike many others including myself.

    Nothing wrong with a scooter, I've got a 100cc Honda while I sort out the money to get myself something a bit nicer.

    Instead of matriculated, I read masturbated. I was like, "Who needs an incentive for that?"

    Lol.

    I envy those whose parents help them get a vehicle. My dad said he was going to give me his old Cavalier(can't remember what year). Ever since I was a kid he said he'd give it to me. Now things are different, and he's even told me he'd sell it. Don't know what the hell has changed.


    Bastard.

    Stop complaining, I had to buy my car used when I was in high school it cost me around 40k and this wasn't a deal from my family either. Honestly if your dad wants to sell his old car, you'd get a large discount. That being said, you're fucking 18, buy your own, no one's going to give free stuff to you at this point besides the occasional birthday or christmas.

    Grrr. Why did it have to be Chinese?

    Now I have to replace the Drive Belt, Change the motor and transmission oil, replace the tire valve stems from that cheap Chinese crap to ones that are actually the right shape. And I'll need to put on decent rollers to actually hit the listed RPMs.

    All before my first ride.

    I bet within the next two weeks I'll have to replace the Spark plug and Fuel filter.

    Blaaaah I could just as well have bought me a Second hand car and had less to fix. Or at least a decent Yamaha scooter.


    Meh, at least it does have 170cc which is cool.
