Good Bye Texas... Hello Oahu

Well, last night i go the official word...


Dear Harsimran:
Congratulations! After a stringent selection process, you are one of the outstanding students recommended for admission to the University of Hawaii's graduate business program for the Fall 2006 semester. No offer of admission is official unless it comes from the Graduate Division of the University of Hawai'i at Manoa. However, barring unforeseen circumstances or new information that would affect your candidacy for admission, we anticipate that you will soon receive an official letter from the Graduate Division informing you of your official admission status.



So, looks like I am leaving before the fall.
Things are still a little up in the air. I may differ this for one year, or I may not. Still not sure yet.

Well, just wanted to share the big news

Thank You Thank You..

I found that I can have the car transporated to CA for about $600 and then shipped to HI from there for about $900. So about $1500 total... not too bad.

The only problem will be getting the car past inspection over there. I need to figure out how to get that done. I wonder if I get it inspected here before i leave... if i have to get it redone once i get it registered there.

congrats! but, do ANY of the students at UH actually study? seems like it would be too distracting w/ the nice weather, beaches, chicks etc. i think there's a reason UH is not highly ranked in any field... <LOL>

Thanks Everybody,
I guess I better get any major modding done before I leave. I'm forseeing an install party later this summer

There is so much I want, but I think i'll just stick to clutch/flywheel.
Vented Hood, Side Mirrors, Coilovers, Big Brake Kit, and a Bigger Turbo will all have to wait until next year.
