Maybe I'm too ready to tell people I dropped out of school, but I feel like trying to hide it or even not mention it is too hard. Am I proud of dropping out? Have I started to use dropping out to define who I am? I'm going back to school and I plan to transfer to a different type of school. I didn't belong at UCLA. I never identified with the place. My mom had to force me to buy a sweatshirt and I went with one with me most inconspicuous logo. I'm not identifying myself with dropping out of school but dropping out of UCLA. It's as if I rejected the place, but at the same time the place rejected me. I guess I want people to know that I'm not UCLA material and I guess I'm proud of that.

I'm not a big fan of certain brand names. BMW makes some pretty amazing cars, but because of the brand I just can't get myself to drive one. I guess I'm more of a Honda kind of guy. Honda has some interesting engineering but it never seems to have a pretentious image. Well, my dad says that Honda's tend to charge a little more than the other Japanese manufacturers, so I guess in Asian markets it is pretty pretentious. Honestly it's hard to say if Honda cars are all that great. Performance wise, Nissan has always been better. Mitsubishi and Subaru also make very fast cars. Honda, though, makes interesting cars, and I guess that's why I prefer Honda.
