Hah! Try getting 4-6 hours of sleep EVERY night....<grin> And hold down a 40-60 hour job where you have true stress and then come home and take care of kids, etc.....
No offense to you, but school is NOT difficult.....I WISH I could go back and be in school again......This isnt to say there arent bad days, etc, but if you think school is hard work, I gots news for ya.....School is a CAKE walk...and colleg is even better! You;ll love it! It will have hard moments but you'll love it! ANd then real life sets in.....the grind........no matter how much you think you know about it, you dont until you live it for a few years........
Like I said.....this is nothing personal...you sound like a straight enough dude..... with what seem to be modest and reasonable goals for your folks' car.....good luck with that.,.,...
But again, you ASKED for feedback and you got it....
...you're wrong....many of us (older types) *DO* know what your life is like, or at least we do if you are an average 16 year old......and you claim to be an average dude, with no silver spoon, and obviously not poverty-stricken......so, yes, we can comment. Having *BEEN* where you are now, we know well.....
This thread is completely on topic --- its just that certain folks "get it" and certain folks "dont"........
That's ok....
Just, if someone doesnt want honest answers or advice, dont ask for it.....don;t air your personal dirt laundry publicly if you don't want folks to comment on it.....Personally, I am not one who cares for bemoaning things like "I'm not allowed to take of my roof rack"...there are a LOT of more important things in life than a freakin' roof rack...........LOL.
Really----most of us were just trying to help......
