    It took me until 100 to get up to 2 stars :)
    As for the car crash, they said it could be £250, but if i've damaged more than you can just see then it'll go up by alot. Why did I even start driving!

    I do, but I only make £130 a month if I don't do any overtime £50 of which goes straight onto my car insurance which then only leaves me with £80 a month. Because my timetables so awkward the only time I can actually do overtime is holidays. I'm also trying to get away for a couple of days in the summer which needs at least £200.
    Doing STP leaves me with exactly the same amount I get paid where I work now if you take into account car parking so it's really good for me to do!

    Crashed while parking, i'm an idiot lol

    Oh dear lord hah...bad times!
    I get about £60 a week but have to pay for car insurance, phone contract, petrol to get to college etc so it all adds up what I earn on here.
    Speaking of which, I just withdrew another £5 WOOO so thats £71 I have saved up now! Well on my way to hit my target (My pay the week before I go will make this up nicely)

    Well, my parents are going to pay the lady (who's really nice and old, i'd of felt so bad if I hadn't left a note!) at the end of the week. And then i'm going to pay them back.
    I'm thinking i'll just give my parents my wages then i'll have more of a reason to work on STP! Were you still on there at 12 last night?! Hardcore! lol

    Well, Ive done 50 songs now, got an accuracy rating of 91.88%, always put at least 5 lines in each review saying how it made me feel, quality of vocals, ways to improve, mood fo song etc but I've only got one star! how are people getting two stars????


    Crikey, Pablo's mum, I don't know why you haven't got the 2nd star already. Your accuracy is great, and from what you say you're writing plenty. You've also got a good list of the themes you cover. Are you making sure you're not repeating yourself? That's the only thing I can think of because I got my 2nd star at 32 reviews. Don't want to depress you, trying to reassure you it won't be long!
