Congratulations to you!
Pay attention to the road and never, never forget there are other people on there.

We have it backwards, nearly everyone has a microwave oven but regular ones are really rare.
I need one so bad, there's a whole range of cooking that's unavailable to me and it makes me crazy.

Do any of your neighbors at least have one so you can go over and bake when the urge is strong?

Thank you guys <3
I actually already had a little drive XD
I went to get a thank you present for my dad because he put in 300 hours for my sister and I to get our licences !
And funny how you said to get ice cream cause my bf suggested that XD !!
And Kuuki, of course! for the next year the rate of deaths/ crashes for me skyrockets so I am going to be extremely careful! And I have seen what a crash can do to someone, so it's very important to me to drive safely.

Thank you all! It's quite possible you saw me post in this thread once in a while forever ago :D
Personally, I am perfectly okay. Lazing about before going to uni.
Kuuki - fruits alcohol is something I cannot deal with. Do not like the taste of any of that at all.
And while I am not in Japan, I totally know what it feels like to live without an oven. I have one now, but in my first semester I was in a tiny room that had the bare necessities. Oven did not count as one.
Akili - That does sound adorbs. Did they manage?
Death Candy - I'm sorry about that.
646rebecca - I don't know for sure, but I know the most vitamins are usually close to the rind?
CONGRATULATIONS! Do you also already have your own car or will that come sometime in the future?

Well, mostly. They only lost one raft, anyhow, which was pretty amazing considering the state of some of them!
(I'm VERY grateful they get along so well. Makes all of us kids' lives a lot easier. Well, it had more of an impact when we were all younger, but it's still nicer now for family events that we can just still get everyone together without having to worry about taking sides or taking turns and whatnot)

Ahhhh, yes the good ol' lazy uni holidays!!
I start back end of Feb.
And I think that would be a good reason behind it, but I honestly wouldn't have a clue!!
And yes I do!
*here* is my baby
A Holden Barina spark~
My sister and I were VERY lucky to get new cars!!
(our older sisters got second hand cars)
The reason was because second hand car prices have risen, and for the extra couple of K you might as well get a brand new car and the added benefits of new cars too!

That sounds great honestly!
I do find it amazing that they get along. My parents broke up years back and honestly I still wouldn't know what to do if I get married. The simple fact of them being in the same room would probably cause a fight.
rebecca - Well my uni starts in like half an hour :'D I'm just lying in bed rn. It officially ends on the 13th I think but since I still have exams and a mandatory internship in a school after, that seems like a lie.
Amazing! My parents would have never bought us cars. Wouldn't even fit in the driveway.

We have 6 cars in the driveway ... (and one [sometimes we can squeeze 2] in the garage).
My sister and I were very lucky, before my dad got into an accident he was able to start saving money and over years he saved enough for us to afford cars.
and omg, I totally forgot that different places in the world has different timing for the schooling year
you do internship in a school ??? What are you studying??

You have an amazing driveway.
My parents weren't clever enough to save money before things went downhill... Your dad has great foresight!
I guess I study teacher education? I'm gonna be a teacher at some point :U

Yeah, my family all super poor. There was no saving for cars.
Congrats on your license! I got mine and driving is super stressful. lol.
