Yesterday was a good day. Did interval training around 11am (running) and went to the gym at 7:30h pm to participate in 'power pump'. Had a very nice conversation with a georgous blond and found out she's already taken. => My day was pretty good, evening not so.

I was doing my homework, then my friend sends me a link to the trailer of the SONY Xperia Z1. I AM IN LOVE!!!!!!!! Then I saw the camera lens concept movie by SONY.... I am so happy that my friend sent it to me! Gives me another goal in life; also it's another motivation to work and study hard, on top of GTA V and on top of buying an Oldsmobile 442 chassis.

Lucky for you 442's aren't hard to come buy and are relatively cheap.

Great! I'll probably be scavenging for parts in the summer, and if I can't find a certain part, I'll order it from OPG.
@Luminis, on a scale of 1-10 how bad is it?

I hate, hate, hate doing customer support. You think it's bad if you're working for an IT company, but try doing customer support for a bank...
I can understand your situation... In IT at least there is a go-to line (Have you tried turning it off and on again). Customer support at a bank will just be full of people who have no understanding on how a bank (or money) works.

A good place to start is a previously started restoration or a parts car. Just make sure the rust isn't too extreme if you're not too familiar with body work.

Just be sure you know what you are getting into. It is HARD work. You will want to throw everything and quit. And it is lengthy. Just keep reminding yourself of the outcome and keep pushin through. Make sure this is what you want because once you've got it most won't want it and you are stuck with it. It is hard work but he payoff is priceless.

Today I partook in intense training of cycling in the morning, I'm currently in a local cycling team making attendances into some national notable competitions of the sport - everybody habitually in the group doing a cruising of approx 4~5 men at a certain rate with constancy in their exclusive racing track.
Today was the first day I was pandered as being one of the inductee of the team and thereupon was I to be accompanied with a senior trainer so as to keep in mind about basic rules for taking a run in a group(which is very important in actual races).
For the very primitive day of being under a drill I could carry it off pretty well - being extolled by him that I'm fairly good for the first time, sticking to a group throughout the entire workout without never dropping off from them. And he said to me after a certain period of arduous exercise I have the potential of honing my skills far better, later telling that to my dad and which made him gleeful - realising that I'm perhaps carrying the gun toward the sports if I keep going on that in the way had I ever been doing.

My dad and I rebuilt his '68 Goat - which he gave to me - and took us about 6 years, off and on. Yes, the payoff was amazing. The feeling of driving that car out the driveway and instantly turn heads, is the greatest feeling I could've asked for. Yes, my dad did let me inherit the Goat but I want to restore my own car, keep it and give it to my own son/daughter down the road. Keep it in the family.

At the moment? I'd say 8. Customers are annyoing as hell, but on weekends, there aren't a lot of them.
Tem not knowing stuff isn't the issue. Them thinking they know everything, that's bad
Sounds like you've got experience with that sort of stuff
Ohhh, the first round of drinking after not drinking any alcohol for a rather long time - that's always the best 👍 (unless you throw up).

That's a good idea. I always loved that feeling myself. Can't wait to restore my pickup

My day was pretty...physical.
Went cycling (chose the hardest steepest mountain route I knew) for 2 hours, relaxed a little bit and then I lifted weights. (Bench pressing, pull-overs, flys, deadlifts).
A very fast downhill section allowed me to crack the 100 km/h or ~ 63 mph limit with my bicycle. That was awesome, despite the harmonic vibration in the front wheel I got above 90 km/h. (I think I need to check the front wheel rim.)
Now I feel a little trashed though, I must have burned a million calories today. Need. more. Food.

Pretty grand day. Hanging around my place eating hearty foods and listening to music basically. The introverted lifestyle.

I most definitely don't have experience with that.
I have very little understanding on how a bank works, I know that you store money in it and you can take some money out if you need to. That's about it. 
Stupid people on the other hand, I have a lot of experience with. Working as a techy with musicians in their teens-early 20's is a great way to learn about stupid... Wait, I am a musician in my teens... Well, that's a shocking realization.

Not the best. Vettel won again. What looked like possibly the first McLaren podium of the year rapidly fell apart. Kind of like my teams national champion hopes at the Runoffs...our first D sports racer busted a chain, the second ran the whole race on 3 cylinders while constantly leaking oil and coating the left rear tire. Eventually led to the driver going off, and neither car saw the checkered flag. Also kind of like my love life when my girlfriend called to tell me she slept with someone else Friday night while I was away thus ending our relationship of over 3 years. Pretty devastated and feeling quite sick. So yeah I've had better days. Hope the rest of you had great weekends

Good, good. Thank you for asking.
I washed my car, yesterday only on the outside though. Still have to polish the rims giving them a protective coat. Clean all the car windows and the car seats and vacuum the car.
I hope I'll get this done today.

Holy... no, that's not nice at all. I feel very sorry for you. I don't even know what I would do if that were to happen in my relationship (which has "only" been going for 7 months)... stay strong, and I hope you have much better luck in the future.
My day was lame so far, I sort of screwed up a test in school but it shouldn't be a huge worry. Just came back from shopping and I shall now proceed to relax.

Thanks man. Hope you have many more happy months. I don't really know what to do either. Sort of feels like I've been driving with all the aids turned on for the last 3 years and then someone came and turned them all off at once, gave me a swift kick in the nuts and said "ok off you go"
I know it's going to be a learning and growing experience but at the moment it seems more than overwhelming.
Today I have multiple flights to catch back to Austin, so it will be a long day of traveling. Trying to keep my head up, but I'm not as excited to come home as I was a few days ago

An absolutely fantastic day all round for myself. As of next Monday I will become the Drive-Time radio presenter on 107.8 Academy FM Thanet, to an average audience of around 15,000 people!

Last few days have been awful.
Moved into uni on friday and the following things happened.
The wetroom door has no seal so it floods the bedroom.
Yesterday the lift broke which meant climbing 9 floors about 7 times.
The ethernet is broken so only my PS3 can get the internet as the wireless works.

We went to the cottage of my granddad again for cleaning since today we had another day off at the very beginning of a whole week as a fete day.
scrubbed the floor of a porch with a deck brush alongside a rubber hose, and taking an eye to the surroundings of the house to conjure up our plans with gardening(how to adorn the premises with flowers or gorgeous plants) nothing much following on afterwards, we directly returned to home getting ourselves ready to buy some kitchen stuff for dinner along with a tutorial magazine for horticulture.

Damn, that harsh... I do feel really sorry for you. And I can relate to that, had a similar experience myself years ago. Can't really tell you anything that you'd want to hear right about now, only the usual "time will ease the pain" BS... But it is true, after all.
Just a piece of advice: Don't start overcompensating (like I did) afterwards. Made some bad mistakes myself that way.
Best of luck to you, and keep your head up.
Edit: My day's friggin' boring. Got late shifts at work, and believe, there's zilch to do. That's worse than stressful days, especially since there are only so many threads on GTP to spam. Oh, and late shifts are killing my social life, as I usually can't hang with my buddies if my shifts go on till 11 in the evening. At least my workout at the gym earlier today was nice.

My day was ok. My friend said he'll give me his 3DS once he gets the XL version. That same hour, my crush spent the whole hour with a kid I think she likes. I'm slightly suspicious but, I won't stop her. My other pick for homecoming already is going out with a popular person, and my friend I haven't talked to in a while is questionable. I watched my fellow math team members go to a competition. They wouldn't talk to me, but then again, I'm basically a ghost. I also got locked outside in the cold today during 1st hour. I had collected leaves for a project but couldn't get inside. I was out there for 5 minutes. I had nothing to do but try to open doors and wait. Nobody noticed I was gone. The teacher finally remembered and let me in the school. When I got back to the room, my face was frozen and nobody cared. Even my friend in that class didn't notice. Anyway, I have Geometry and Biology homework to do. See ya GTP!
