    Cuesta for now! I used to go to San Jose State, but changed my major to Enviro-science. I'm hoping I can get into Cal Poly. :bananadance:

    Checkout the estuary in morro bay. They do a lot of environmental stuff. Get a bunch of volunteer hours behind you and slap that on your application for cp. :thumbsup:

    Yeah. My gf who is near straight A's didn't get in for biomedical. So make sure to make yourself stand out as much as possible.

    Also, if you work for cal poly on the state side, the min wage is 13.xx and you get benefits, including a fee waiver classes (I forget if it's partial or full)

    They do take forever and a half to hire but definitely worth it.

    I'm going to try and post what's been happening the past week or so as I decided to spend some savings.

    I got a box in the mail from Poly Performance a few days ago. What could it be?

    Light Racing UCAs! YAY!
    These don't use any fancy ball-socket joints or whatever (like on Total Chaos' UCAs and stuff), and because of that they're much cheaper. I'll have to have a shop put them on because I don't have the technology to do it myself where I live.

    Does anyone know of a good off-road shop around San Luis Obispo? I want to change some things with the rear end, maybe taller leaf springs or just new shocks.. Not sure what to do yet.

    Damn son. I feel like I should start looking at back up schools. I'm assuming she was a transfer student?

    Also, what do you do now with your Enviro degree?
