I have to say, I've let myself down at the end of the year.

Sure, I got my car in may/june of this year, but in terms of spending, maybe I should have waited. With the whole state of the economy and such...I guess I was just stubborn. my spring semester was awesome, but I've let myself down with this fall semester...not making all the grades I wanted...and I'm losing my job in 2 days...I'm just hoping next year will be better.

I purchased my first BMW. . .and I can say without a doubt I have zero regrets, minus the cast of characters these cars tend to attract (you know who you are)


oh, and I hooked up with a chick named sara from Utah. . .mediocre at best.

My STi got stolen. I bought a 335xi. I moved into an apartment near work rendering my 335 a weekend driver (as I now walk to work). Thats about it.

I'm looking forward to a (hopefully) better 2009.

2008 was a financial disaster for me...
