Winter Break

I'm official done with my first quarter! Whoo-hoo! To celebrate I went to Disneyland and California Adventure.  It was a blast since it was all decked out.  

After all that fun at the happiest place on Earth I get hit with some bad news:  

First, my mac book isight died and I have to send it off to get it fixed. Boo! 

Second, my car died. Boo-hoo! 

I'm kind of upset about the whole situation. Back in May/June I went up north and since then my car has not been the same.  It runs fine but at times while slowing down or at a stop sign/signal the engine shuts off?!?!? So I took it to the mechanic and he said the throttle body needs to be replaced.  Okay what do I know about cars just fix it but he then explained that the part itself costs $815.00 WTF? Seriously, $815.00 WTF?   

So he suggested to clean the part instead of replacing it now, which would cost $250.00 instead of a whooping $815!  So I decided to clean it instead but knowing it might fail again then I would still have to spend the $815 (part only) but the mechanic made a deal with me (since he is a family friend) he offered to clean it and if it fails he will replace the throttle body for $815.00 only no labor fees as the labor fee is already the $250.00 for cleaning it, so I'm in and made an appointment to take it in tomorrow.  BUT...I tried to start my car this morning and soon after it starts it would shut off continuously unless your foot is on the gas pedal but as soon as it's off the car shuts off again.  How am I suppose to put it in drive? 

So now I have to tow my car over there :( 

 

Well besides my car, computer & money dilemma, I'm still thankful for my existence here on earth and I will continue to enhance every part of it. 

 

This is my hood.
