Sometimes I want to do things myself that I shouldn't be doing without asking for advice. I'm doing that intentionally because in general I don't like to ask for help, and also mistakes made yourself you remember better and actually understand what exactly you've done wrong, and not just like I shouldn't do this because clever people say so.

So, this time I've bought a car, first car, myself, alone, used, cheap. No, well, I've researched a bit and not just the very first car I saw for sale. But I was intentionally buying a cheap car, just because right now I don't have any preferences at all (never been interested in cars), so wanted something that would just run for a year while I'm thinking what I really need. But as it usually (sometimes?) happens, right after buying something you start seeing things you don't like, so now this and that looks not so good (mechanically), and so on.

Well, it's not the end of the world anyway, in the worst case I've just lost some money, but people will definitely think I'm an idiot, which I'm not sure I am because I did this intentionally for some weird reason.

Hm, not sure what advice I'm asking for... But if you think I'm an idiot you're free to say so:)
