Score!

After a couple unfortunate attempts, I finally won my first eBay auction! It's a much-needed watch that I had already tried getting, but with no luck (or expertise on my behalf). So no money spending just for the fun of it, or to practise my eBay skills (haha), which are pretty poor as we speak! How can I have missed something I waited on for more

eBay is worth it sometimes...I think.

watch out on eBay for some items that seem to have an odd timer... i've heard them to be named "eBay ghosts", which is basically, you bit.... then you wait... you win.... and nothing ever turns up... and you're never billed for it.... well, my time, i had the wrong item turned up (a vase) and i was never billed for it.... and i never got a reply to return it... so i put it up on my mantle piece... just to mock eBay and their wacky system...

Hey adrienne, nice to meet you! :)
I wish I had a code to give you, but unfortunately I don't! I had one and I already gave it to a friend some time ago! Sorry!

You're more than welcome to write me anytime though! Take care.

This is rather off-topic to your post, but I knew I recognized you. Awhile ago you posted an inquiry on the Gainesville board regarding food not bombs, volunteer work/activism, and local venues, which I answered. I remembered your picture.

I'm now a student in your French I class, period 5. My name is Tina.

Weird.

I hope you found what you were looking for and I hope you enjoy Gainesville.

[dambo]

wait, that's really weird!!!

Tina Amato??

i remeber your name but not your face, sorry...unless you're the one who took 3 years of Latin but only one semester of french in HS

weird.

about gainesville, i'm still a foreigner here, so i'm still learning too.

[loudestsound]

Yes, I was the one who took Latin.

I took the SAT II last night, and under the circumstances I will no longer be in your class.

Quel dommage! (Did I spell that correctly?)

Good luck with your graduate studies. I think you'll like this town.

Maybe I'll see you at a show,
Tina

Oh, I'm sorry to hear you're not going to be in my class anymore! It would have sounded too creepy! haha Just kidding!

today's class went actually much better than yesterday's...I hope it keeps getting better! hehe

But if you can spell "quel dommage" perfectly, you do not need to be in my class! hehe

See you at a show! :) Good luck with 1131!
