hey LT1stunna, were you at home depot today on alafaya? i think i saw your car there. my roommate and i had to go pick up some stuff for the house.

i used to be real paranoid about parking and protecting my car, but since moving up here i just stopped careing. the visitor spots at apartments are usually real small and my doors have already aquired some new scratches. i know if i'm parked next to you guys my car will be safe from dings, as well as yours.

I see where you're coming from, but it is possible to finish. I felt the same way when I came to UCF in '01. I had an AA from a private college and UCF didn't accept about 25 hrs., so I was a year behind. It's an excellent school and is always getting better. Once our sports program is top-notch and we're nationally-recognized, a UCF degree will be a hot commodity.

I think the school is decent just needs to be alot more organized.

They expand waaaay to fast and it seems like we they are barely getting by without a disaster on the most part.

Yeah it is, I saw a survey that said like 80% of UCF CS grads are satisfied with their pay right out of college. So that says something right there.

Did you ever have that guy who was arrested for terrorism connections?

Yeah you're right. The construction is crazy. I was in a BA classroom this afternoon and the whole room shook for like 10 min. when the steamroller was going by.

Our new business building is nice, you should check it out.

they are letting people into the new business building?

Sweet, I had a class last summer, in the big lecture hall in the BA building, they woudl shake the whole wall and the projector kicked out once during the work, it was very very annoying.


As for HPA and CLassroom parking, park in the garage on the 3rd floor, on the side opposite form the school, that is where we usually park not so much this summer(at least not me, T, TR 6-8:50( so campus is pretty much dead. I gave up hte dirt lots, they get bad some times, when the big divets form, I think I might get stuck one day and I do not mind mudding in my Camaro.


BTW is YoshiZ28 David Alexander? The guy that won SLP day for street tire f-bodies? I have had some classes with him, in Lab for CGS2100 we started talking because while the guy at the front was speaking whatever it is that is not english we were both cruising thei board, I have run into him a few times at the track. I know he works at Home Depot, and has the Green z28, with green frotn end(incuding headlight area) with the twisted 5-spoke rims and clear corners.

Yeah, they're letting people in the new business building. The current BA240 is moving in there on the ground floor with a few more counselors. My group and I are always in there at the tables from like 9:15 - 9:45.

Alright, I'll start parking there in the fall, that's the newest one, right?

I met this dude in class today with a Grand National and said he wants to start a car club, so if I we can get any spare time, it'll be in the works and we'll let you all know.

Yes, the newest garage, or the North garage is where we all used to park. I started there last fall semester and got quite a few other fbodies to join in, it was pretty cool, but last spring I hardly saw anyone, hopefully this fall, yall will park next to me again.

Yeah it died down, but I usually saw your car, the blue 3rd gen, the black 3rd gen, Soma7(Jason) Green Trans Am, I usually parked up there. Its shade, and secluded. Also cops like to chill in that area and shoot radar on the back road, having UCF police around my car makes me feel a little better since my car wasbroken into on campus.

My car left some of the oil up there but not all of it That busted oil sending unit causing me to leave a quart of oil every day, really got messsy at my apartment complex.
