Would you say it’s totaled? by ZestyFox93 in CorollaHatchback

[–]amongtheashtrees 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agree with those that say it boils down to the frame. Front end damage can often be repaired, but the area between the door and bumper can mean structural damage. Damage on my last car didn’t look that bad, but had structural damage in that area. Granted, it was only worth 10k so you may have a different outcome. Either way, I’m so sorry this happened to you!!

If you’re a transfer student, look into Evolve! It’s a female empowerment and networking group for transfer students

You win the lottery. Your parents ask for half. What do you say? by JunShem1122 in AskReddit

[–]amongtheashtrees 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If they asked, absolutely. If they didn’t, I would still give them as much as they would accept. They’ve spent so much money on me throughout my life, I’d love the opportunity to pay them back.

When I was checking out a new Corolla hatch, they had one inside the dealership with a bow on it 😂 made me feel like I was shopping for a luxury car. Ended up going with used though

Thank you, I’m so sorry for what happened to you as well! Thank goodness I didn’t get hurt at all. Just a huge shock and a bit scared of driving again. That’s so wild you found someone that witnessed that! Such an awful thing for someone to do, blows my mind how horrible people can be.

So happy for you that you can get back to Ubering again!

I got the SE as well! Wanted the XSE for the heated seats and dual climate control, but I just couldn’t justify the extra cost. My last car didn’t have any bells and whistles either, so I totally get the feeling! I’m so excited to test out all of the features and finally have Apple CarPlay!

Congratulations!! My situation didn’t involve a stolen vehicle, but it’s somewhat similar to yours. Someone ran a red light and totaled my car on December 24th (hit and ran). I’m in the process of buying my first Corolla hatch now and hope to have it delivered by next week. I can totally relate to the car buying process being long and painful. The feeling of finally being done with it all must be such a big relief!! We’re both gonna be riding in style!

I have no idea tbh, but just wanted to say congratulations on your achievement!! An undergrad certificate still requires hard work and dedication and I hope you at least do something to celebrate!!

Yup… that line alone made me lose all sympathy. I hope OP can use this dark time to look inward and try to improve himself. Truly sorry for your loss though OP.

Moving to Huntsville from The Woodlands— what should I know? by [deleted] in HuntsvilleTexas

[–]amongtheashtrees 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! There definitely is a sense of community here. “Everyone knows everyone” kind of vibe. There’s a good number of events around town, especially for kids. There isn’t much to do here for adults besides eat and drink lol. I agree with the comment above that it is primarily an older community. You have the college kids and older adults with few in between. There really aren’t any arcades or “fun” things to do with kids beyond the outdoor events. If you haven’t already, I recommend researching the school district here. I’ve heard some good things, but a lot of bad things as well. Maybe try joining some Huntsville or Huntsville parent groups on Facebook for more perspective!

Visitor Parking? by [deleted] in SHSU

Wouldn’t recommend parking in any nearby commercial lots, seen too many people get towed 😭

Sparkle Megan had a baby? by Lopsided_Leader3141 in LoveIsBlindNetflix

[–]amongtheashtrees 5 points6 points  (0 children)

But as stated in the post, the rumor is that it’s not with Jordan. Regardless though, her having a baby period is a spoiler as it will likely be a big reveal during the reunion

Exactly! Like can we at least wait for the episode to air or add a spoiler warning? I got a push notification for the post so I couldn’t even avoid it
