Choices.

So I'm left with a dilemma upon my hands.

I was planning to upgrade my computer for a long time now. Do I do it? 3 main pieces - Motherboard, Video Card, and CPU will already cost me over $1,000. Plus all the other necessities such as another monitor, case, power supply, CD/DVD-Rom/RW, RAM, and other stuff. It'll roughly end up to be about $1,500. I'm expecting this to run for AT LEAST 5 years or more before I need to do another upgrade. Yes, I'm planning to use this as my crazy gaming rig plus well... just faster performance in every aspect.

But is this a want? or a need?

I've come to the conclusion that it's a want. A desire for something that I don't necessarily need. It's just to fill the void that I'm missing out on all the good games out there and because of the lack of great performance outputting from my current computer. I guess this would be a short-term thing, that it'll just satisfy me but I probably might regret it.

On the other hand, the other side of the spectrum, I have a car. No, not at the moment. But if I start saving up now, I can probably get my dream car sooner than later. Realistically speaking, if I save up for 2 years, I can afford one right when I graduate. And that would be closer to getting the girl. Like Borat says, "Does this car have pussy magnet?"
I definitely want to have that in my car. LOL.

Realistically speaking [and more of a self-goal, like my friend F] of the cars I want when I'm done post-secondary:

1. Nissan Sentra SE-R Spec-V
   Basically, the top of the line of that car. It's worth about $32,000. But I'm going to finance it cause I definitely won't have that kind of money by the time I'm done school.
2. Honda Civic Ex
   I know, I know. A Civic. WHY?! Yeah I'm wondering about the same thing too. My friends all have it, so I'm really trying to STAY away from it. I wanna be unique in the pack. Third highest model of the sedan. Worth about $20,000, which is a huge difference between this and the Sentra.
3. My parent's Nissan Altima GXE
   Worse comes to worse, by the time I graduate, my parents will be on their way to getting a new car. And this gives me an opportunity to save my money even more and just fix up their car and drive it till it won't drive no more. But why? It probably won't have it's pussy magnet when I get it. LOL.

Unrealistically speaking of the cars I want:

1. Nissan GT-R
   This baby is HOT. OMG. But at a base of $56,000 and top of the line of $72,000, I don't think I can afford it until a few years after I find a stable salary job.
2. Infiniti G37
   Same with the GT-R, but costs a little less at base model.
3. Nissan 350z
   The same AGAIN.

As you can tell, I'm a Nissan freak. I've grown up with Nissan all my life, so it's time for me to show my love for it.

Getting a car is a long-term goal. I don't know if I can do it by the time I'm done school. I guess time will tell.
