I want these things but i dont know wat to do and which to get first?

*Grandma’s kia sportage ($1,500)
Status: Grandma hasn’t come back. She’s in the hospital because of pneumonia and I’m going to be $200 short of what I hoped for.

Solution: Hope to God doctor Nan lets me keep the job as a secretary this school year and sacrifice the first 2 month’s of work to make up then I ‘ll have to work another 2-4 months to get the car… FINALY

*Skull Candy Skullcrushers ($69.95)
Status: Cash in my check or give papi my check and get’em Sunday or Monday

Setback: If dr. nan lets me keep my job as secretary for the afternoons I’ll have to work an extra month on top of the 2 months that I have to work already (that’s if grandma accepts my offer)

*SEN10RS (RED) Converse ($69.95)
Status: Brings the class together. Have a memory of your graduating class to keep for the rest of your life.

Setback: Same as above.

COMMON
all require work for extended periods of time

Solution: buy them both (an extra month of work…) Total months is 6 months till car

I enjoy the car for 4 months then I go to college. .. worth it?. .. Crappy car. .. 6months of work PLUS all the crap I gotta do like hw

why would anyone want a kia sportage? if you have $1500 you could probably get something much better, i’m not in the US but even over here in the UK £1000 can get you a nice car. really, a kia sportage? i can’t think of anything worse… there’s one problem solved right away….yuck…

Forget the converse. If you want memories of your graduation class that’ll last the rest of your life, take a camera in on your last day. Also it might be worth shopping around to see if you can find a car for less than $1500. I’m sure it’s possible, especially if you’re looking for something like a second-hand kia.

think about what will benefit you most in the long term. We can’t really decide that for you. If you get the shoes and wear them for the next few years, great. Where as if you get the car and use it for four months and then don’t use it for ages, that might be a waste? Depending on what you think. And do you REALLY need a car? The skull candy skullcrushers are awesome in my opinion. If you get those, you can use them for the next couple of years. Balance out your needs with your wants and how long each will benefit you for.

Well how much is your friend asking for the miata? If it’s less than you’re going to pay for the kia then you’ll have money left over in your budget to replace the tyres.

Just a quick point about the shoes: Cons will NOT last you more than a couple of years unless you’re only wearing them once in a blue moon (in which case it’s not worth spending 70 dollars on them in the first place).

Well, you’ll have $500 to work stuff out with. Your grandma’s car must have a few quirks as well, and then there’s the cost of running the thing, whichever car you end up with

the cons im just gonna use them a couple of months cuz they match the senior shirt plus they’re custom and say SEN10RS on the back. at the end of the year im gonna have every one sign them so i can remember them. after that i plan to put them on a pedestal and have’em around with me some where :D

Ooooookay. I’ve never heard of anyone having leavers’ shoes before. Hoodies yes, but not shoes.

News Flash! Right now things are going really cheap because the economy sucks… you should be able to buy a decent car for $1000 look around or tell grandma to give you the family discount and buy all three. btw wtf is a skull candy crusher? Sounds like a basic necessity not.

Go for it. It’s definitely worth shopping around online a bit to see if you can get a better deal elsewhere though.
