So my car had a cracked manifold. That explains the oil drip, since it was dripping on the coil pack. So I need a few new spark plugs, a new cover for the coil pack, and a new manifold.
Sad thing was, the mechanic replaced my manifold and the replacement was cracked too. Also getting a new thermostat.
And now I pass out 
I also got some clarification on some things from my grandfather, so my mother can't make me feel like a failure about him buying the car for me. (tldr basically making me think that I'm a super fuckup if he
had to buy me a car, something he never did for her or her brother).
I'm heading off to work but, the story he told me was that he never had to buy my uncle a car, because he (my uncle) said he was raised to take care of himself. And my mother wrecked four cars from drinking
and driving. Looking at it now, I guess you could say it's a miracle I was even born, given how much she partied and all the opportunities where she could have killed herself by accident.
