 Plus, I live within a 300-mile radius of an arbitrary point along the borders of the Mojave and Sonoran Deserts, so it's not like I can call my relatives to take over for me. Plus, they live a million miles away. No, it's all uncles and aunts, it's not like I have grandparents. I was born 5 years late...   

 

I have no grandparents either, I mean I only have one grandmother living on my father's side and I don't even speak to her, I dunno if my father even speaks to her, I mean I know she lives in the Seattle area but I dunno much about that side of the family.

 

I am the youngest grandchild of my mother's side grandparents, and both of them died not too long ago, They were already great grandparents to cousins that were my age or even older! My mother was the youngest of my grandparents.

 

But anyway, I don't have any relatives that live in Colorado, I used to have an uncle who lived in Ft. Collins but he and his wife moved to Arkansas.

Sisters with disabilities. They need constant guidance/surveillance. I'm sure my house runs the risk of exploding on me. Plus, if my house doesn't explode, my folks will.

 

As of the airplane part... Kinda sketchy if I'm going solo. Plus, my folks will explode.

Oh man, I didn´t know that...

That is pretty hard for you :/. I live long way from relatives, too, but my family can care for themselves at least...

 

Just out of curiosity, why won´t your family move into a bigger town, closer to some relatives?

How is living in Germany? I know I have never left the United States except for like 10 minutes.

 

One day we just wanted to go to Canada since we were close to the border (In Minnesota) and we went there, so we wanted to explore a bit of Canada, but we took a wrong turn and ended back in the United States. xD We decided not to go back so that was the only time I have left this country and the mainland.

 

I want to go to other countries soon, but I don't have the money like I said. xD

It´s awesome!

No, not actually xP. I love my country, though.

I´ve never been out of europe, but travelling around europe is for us like travelling in the USA I guess, kinda.

Other than that we have 2 arms, 2 legs and 1 head over here, usually. We breathe air, and we drive cars.

But the best thing is the missing speed limit in big parts of the highways, oh, and that you can drink beer at the age of sixteen (woohooo!).

 

Really gotta go to the USA, though, gotta find out if all the prejudices are ture xP (just kidding).

It's not too bad here, I mean I like lots of things here better then like say Europe, like some of the architecture and the unique things.

 

I mean I know every road has a speed limit here but that doesn't mean that you can't go fast. I mean Interstates here go up to 75 and sometimes I can hit 100 on them. xD Sometimes I am going like 100 MPH and someone is STILL passing me up, I am like whaa? xD

 

I just love to drive though, I really love to drive places, explore, and go to places I haven't been.

 

I tend to use so much gas driving, and my parents do not like that since I have to use a car under their name. xD

 

I like to go fast though, which is why I like freeways.

[Viscra Maelstrom 3,718]

i'm legally able to get a license, but have no interest in getting a license.

I don´t know about the architecture and unique things being better, I´d have to find out about that.

Over here there are just more different cultures, evolving way without influencing each other (in earlier ages), having effect on how different people are, in damn many ways.

 

And yea, you can speed, like 100 mph (but would have to watch out for police ;D), quite the speed, but imagine taking over a police car with every speed you can imagine (320 km/h, about 200 mph), and you wouldn´t be punished.

Germans have another connection to their cars than most folks, too.

We love our cars and take good care, they are not justr things we use, more like symbols for us.

I haven't been the best with the car I drive. xD I mean I have crashed it multiple times, I mean not in any harmful way but in non-harmful ways.

 

I mean first I was going fast down a curvy dirt road in the neighborhood I used to live in in the middle of the mountains, and I lost control and hit someone's fence and damaged the car pretty well, my parents payed and fixed that.

 

And then at a brony meetup before I accidentally crashed into someone else's car, The back of my car got completely wrecked and the door was ruined, but the car behind me didn't even get a scratch.

 

My parents paid to fix that so now the back door is new and it looks good again.

Having a license is a great thing, I love to be able to drive to places by myself, I don't have to rely on anyone else. I love it.

Oh, that poor thing :c.

No, I have no idea how good Americans drive, of course there are crazy drivers everywhere, but most people know what they´re doing. I had one crash when a guy thought it would be a good idea to drive directly behind me while we were driving around a corner. behind that corner there was a SUV, parked half on the street... Hit the brakes, he crashed my rear.

I can definitely tell you basically no one in Ohio knows how to drive right.  Seriously, so many stupid drivers on the road that it's nuts.

That doesn't sound all great.

 

I mean I am a pretty good driver, I can multitask and do things pretty well while driving. xD I even can steer with my knee, but I only do that when I am going straight and when it's clear. I usually always have a couple fingers on the wheel. xD And for turns I use both hands.

 

I know that's not the RIGHT way to do so, but I can do that stuff pretty well.

 

The times I have crashed were because I made poor decisions, not paying attention or because I was angry, those are my main driving impairities. But other then that I think I am a good driver.

Nothing against relaxed driving, that´s how everyone does it (including me).

I try to keep my emotions for when i go driving go-cart with freidns from time to time, there´s a rather small go-cart track right outside of town, you can rent ´em for not too much and just go nuts on the track for a bit :3. Extremely fun.

[FabulousJeremy 48]

I always just drive with one hand on the wheel unless I feel I'm in an emergency need of control.  And usually I just rest my callouses on top of the wheel and just rotate it casually.

i don't rely on anyone to drive me, because i don't have anyone that can drive me. furthermore, i'm not going anywhere regularly that makes me rely on driving. i guess i could get to school faster if i knew how to drive, but bleh.

[Haven Celestii 9,385]

Driving is actually fun though. Especially when you have a nice speaker system with crazy awesome bass.

[Viscra Maelstrom 3,718]

if i never learned how to bike, i don't have much hopes to drive a car.

[Lil'Cinnamon 1,587]

I love to listen to music when I drive. I might want to get new speakers in my car though, they have some bass problems.

 

Like when bass is loud it likes to make a fuzzy sound. I like how loud the speakers go but I wouldn't mind a new set.

 

Even though I would have to get used to the new set if I get one because I am very used to the set in the car I drive right now. xD

 

I already have a new radio in it that I installed myself, and I love it, it has a plug in thing for my iPhone so I can control the songs by the radio instead of having to use the screen of the iPhone.

 

The old radio unit, the tape player broke and that was how I listened to music, so I got the new radio and it works very well. Now I just need new speakers.

[Haven Celestii 9,385]

Not true. The two are quite different so you could learn to drive.

Yeah, That's definitely not good for it to be making a fuzzy sound.

 

Getting used to a new set is nothing, especially if the new one is better.

 

And i also use my iPod instead of the radio. Much better music.

[Lil'Cinnamon 1,587]

My main source of music is the small selection I put on Shuffle on my iPhone. My iPhone that pretty much is a glorified iPod touch that I pay 30 dollars a month right now. xD

 

I have lots of devices. But talking about the radio, it was a cheap radio but it is still nice compared to the factory radio of before. I still have that factory radio and it really just sits there. xD

 

By the way the car I drive the most is a Subaru Legacy Outback Limited from 1998, like I said it has had some crash trouble but I like the car.

 

I really need to get that air conditioner fixed...

[Viscra Maelstrom 3,718]

i never owned a smartphone. don't see the point. what will i do with it? if i pack it full with music, it's going to slow down to a crawl, right? games... there's PvZ. and that's about all interesting stuff i know on it. i guess it could be useful to transform into a micro audio-production studio when on the road, and i've got some ideas a-brewing, but is that worth it to pay a fee every month in a few years?

 

on a sidenote, i've been emptying my MP3 player and filling it with fresh music. notable additions are music from the Sonic games, Comix Zone, a lot of Prodigy albums, and more.

I have an iPhone and I also have an android. My android is a Droid RAZR and is my main phone with my main number on it. I love the thing, I only need a new one because my android loves to do some things sometimes, like randomly it will start pushing random parts on the screen and not doing anything I tell it to do, which can get on my nerves. It did that yesterday and I was like ARGH.

 

And the phone is very cracked, I really need to get a new phone but it doesn't look like I will be getting a new one for a while... It depends.

 

My iPhone I got for free when I opened an account for Sprint, and I had service and was paying for it until I lost my job, but now my parents have to  pay the 30 dollars a month to keep the contract but not let it get service. It's still in perfect condition, and I plan to keep it that way.

 

I also have an iPod touch used for videos, that one is cracked up, I would like to get it fixed or get a new one, but I dunno when that would happen as I don't have a job right now.

I have my HTC 8X full of music and it ain't any slower than when I got it.

mmm. how large memory does it have?

[Lil'Cinnamon 1,587]

Just filling a phone with files and music will not make it any slower.

 

My iPod touch is 64 GB and is almost filled with videos, and it still runs fast.

 

What makes a computer or phone run slower is how much the Processor is using and how much stuff is running.

 

Like if you have tons of programs or apps open it will slow it down, but if not much is running it will run fast. That's how computers work.

 

Just putting things on the hard drive or flash memory of a device will not slow it down.

[long gone 8,929]

mmm. how large memory does it have?

The only model Verizon sells has 16GB storage, so 16GB storage. Right now I have 8.11GB free.
