Deli lyfe v.10 let's share our life problems edition because apparently we're all miserable

So during the party my family had for Christmas, I spent some time talking with one of my uncles who I don't talk to very much. I already knew he was into firearms, but I had no idea until today that he was as obsessed with them as I was. We eventually started talking about gas systems (DI, piston, etc.) and when we got to delayed-roller systems he told me he has an HK P9 and a P7. I nearly shit myself when he offered to take me to shoot them on a Saturday when I'm not busy. With all the money I got for Christmas, I'm more than happy to pay for the ammo. :v:
So I calmed down and apparently retarded roommates is the reason I can't have my gun. Not gonna fight it, still seems silly but I was tired and a bit pissed
Instead I chose to tell my parents the complete truth about my grades (I got a 2.4 cumulative) and since those are Cs and Ds financial support is cut off. And since my Dad is a doctor, I can't get scholarships for need and thanks to my grades no merit scholarships. I know I'm gonna improve next quarter, but that won't be enough to sway him.
So looks like I'm dropping out and enlisting for a few years or going into the guard, so I can finish college at some point.
just watched the second Hobbit move and wow was that bad.
It was about and hour of movie and the an hour and a half of filler action with bad cgi
They should have stayed with the original plan of making just two movies.

What's confusing me is the band on the stock, on my stock if you push down on that side of the little adjustment lever thing the stock slides right off.

wheres my money

It shouldn't do that from a rubber band on that side. It takes quite a bit of effort to push down on that side to remove the stock. So maybe something on your stock or buffertube is old, broken or out of spec?

Can't wait to get this bitch into the shop in a few weeks and finally get it running.
Will hopefully get it a nice glossy coat of black paint on it, and give it the factory stickers that should be on it. Then, I will restore the subwoofers that are supposed to be under the seats (they're not there, but I have the mounts).
I'm determined to at least have it on the road by spring - it's going to be my summer daily driver. A glorious summer daily driver.

I'm also going to get a custom plate for it, but I can't quite decide what.
Any suggestions guys?

They're made of a close-to-solid non-newtonian fluid that hardens on impact :D
AND I can almost use half of the stuff because my knee recovery is going real good thanks to therapy

My Dad was so pissed this morning he wouldn't even talk to me, he was at least cordial when I got back from skiing. Maybe he'll give me a second chance, I wouldn't really be able to blame him if he didn't, but I'm fucked if he doesn't unless I financially emancipate myself for scholarships.

Did you finally figure out the bizarre electrical issues you were having, or is that what the shop is for?
Also, do you know what color you'll end up painting the car? I feel like that's critical in figuring out a license plate.
Well, I fixed the "not starting with turn of key" issue, and it cranks and cranks and cranks but doesn't start still. I've got fuel at the fuel rail and ignition spark, so something is telling me that it could be the injectors. I actually have to still pick up a can of starting fluid and verify that it is indeed a fuel issue though, but I haven't got time.
I figure at the rate i'm going, it'd be much faster to get the rest finished by a shop so I can get it on the road by spring.
On the topic of colors, i'm probably going to go for a nice glossy black.

Clearly you just have to put your Dilithium crystals in the headlights and make the license plate LaForge.

Basically I'm in such a situation where I'm nearly guaranteed to not get accepted to anything other than a Community College.
Unfortunately, as I planned to go to school for Aerospace Engineering, most of the Universities in my area don't offer AeroE, let alone ANYTHING to do with Aerospace or even aviation. The closest thing I can get at any local school is Aviation Technologies, which is literally flying and nothing else.

Spend 1-2 years at community college and apply to transfer to a regular 4 year. You'll need a really high GPA to get into some 4 year schools, but this way you got your base knowledge done for cheap. Choose a Uni early, find the prereqs for the program you want, and talk to an adviser on how to meet those requirements for your chosen program at community college. All is not lost.
My Dad is giving me another chance. I get one more quarter to significantly improve my GPA, and I'm hella stressed already. If I fail, I will have to take loans out or live at home and go to EWU (much cheaper school, like $1500 a year for tuition, no aero tho). I'm grateful he's giving me a second chance, and now I have something to prove. My Mom and my Father saying they have never been this disappointed in me, while unsurprising, did hurt :(
I'm sweating bullets already. I'm not going to fail. I [I]am[/I] going to do well.
