oil leak.... help plz

I went out the other day to go to school and when i pulled out I saw a puddle of oil so I stopped the car and got out and checked the engine oil. It was low so I refilled it. It ran completely fine on the way to school. when I got out of school I checked the oil again and it was way low. So I filled her up and took her home. The next day i checked it in the morning and it was where it had been. After school the same. Then today the oil level just dropped quickly. I looked very closely at the top and sides of the engine. All i could see but i could not see a leak. Also looked underneth the best i could without taking the plastic skid thing off. The oil drain plug is tight no leaks. the oil filter is tight no leaks. It must be coming from towards the bottom of the engine but i dont know where. If anyone has an idea id appreciate it.

There are a few common oil leaks on these cars. Oil cooler lines, oil pan gasket, and oil filter pedistal are a few very common ones.

How much is "way low"? How much did you add?
