The process of researching and trying to find a used-car to purchase is such a pain in the ass. For the past few weeks my girlfriend and I have been stuck in this ordeal to find something for her before she needs to start school in Las Vegas. We figure it would be better for her to purchase a car here where taxes are lower and we can avoid having to go to dealers in the Las Vegas heat.
But even shopping for cars online can be more stressful than cramming for a midterm. The options are numerous yet limited because money doesn't grow on trees. Right now we have come down to looking at PT Cruisers, which I don't think are that attractive, but the reviews are decent and my gf seems to like it a lot.
Also, being in Corvallis sucks because all the dealers and private sellers are somewhere in Portland-Metro area. Planning to drive up this Thursday to check out some cars. If you have some experience purchasing used cars, want to come tag along? I'll get you lunch or dinner!

Scavenging, Beer, Poker, and Soccer
The title pretty much sums up my weekend.
Yesterday, we had our first ever P1 scavenger hunt and BBQ. We started at 2:ooPM and had two hours to collect everything on the list. Besides getting kicked out of Freddies,' the highlight of the hunt was my teammate dunking his head into the Willamette River right next to one of the overflow pipes. Yea...I hope he doesn't get attacked by flesh-eating bacteria or grow a third eye. We also proposed to the pretty barista as DB, and got free carmelized lemon slices at McMenamin's.
After the hunt, the BBQ over at one of our classmate's houses was a blast. We had tons of good food and booze to go along with it. I feel bad that I didn't bring any beer. I should being over a case next time to make up for it. But I took my first beer bong hit last night. Good times! You don't even realize you are drinking it down so fast. It just rushes down your throat in like 2 seconds. Good times X2!
Then off to poker at my buddie's place. Didn't realize he lived so close. I decided to drive thinking it would be too cold to walk home later. I pulled out of my lot, went down a block, turned a corner, and I was there. Good job burning gas....
The turn out was good. We had eight players, $5 buy-in. I made it pretty far. Got to last three, but made a big mistake by not going in with my Ace-2. 4-5 came out on the river. Opponent bet 3X the blind and I got scared so I folded. Went finishing afterwards and found the the 3 on the river. Damn.
Played soccer today with our P1 co-ed team today. It was my first time out on the field and serious, soccer tires the crap out of you. Felt bad for the girls because we only had three so they had to play the whole game. The guys were subbing like every 5 minutes. Next time I should bring my inhaler. Off to find food. I'm starving.
