i paid less than kelly blue book on my car, and that's always lower than what dealers want to sell it for. so rock! i didn't get down into the 12k's though :( but i feel like i got a good deal on a great car! :) rock! and i just got insurance for it, and i'm only paying $100 more for a 6 month period than for my old car on my parents' policy. rock! i'm going to have to stick to a strict budget now, but i should be ok with bills etc. it's gonna be tight. but i'll be fine. i spend too much in general anyway. but rock! new car! yay! and by the end of may i'll have been at my job for 6 months and so i should be getting a raise (hopefully i've done well enough so that i don't have to be a trainee anymore!). it's not a big raise or anything... i think it works out to be like an extra $40 a paycheck... but that's still cool. yeah. anyway, so here's a pic of my car. isn't it cute? it's turbo and it's got a sunroof... :) very cute! i get to pick it up wednesday... rock!
