College Projects

My Project FAQ, seems to be getting a bit of attention lately. After it got posted here and here, people have started adding me in their buddy list.

He drove though the red woods here.. and it was the best ride of my life. Soon we reached the ocean and hit the famous California 1 highway. From there we drove south towards santa cruz. While getting there.. the drive was simple superb. Ocean on one side and mountains on the other end. And to top…
