This car puts a milestone in my life. After a few badluck cars, I scrounged up enough money by working through college and also 3 jobs last summer to put a down payment on my first 'real' car. I am proud of my determination because I know many poeple wouldn't dream of working 3 jobs, especially on their summer vacation, but I was responsible and independant enough to do it. I know many people my age still depend on mom and dad even though they are in college, and I am proud to say that I am not one of them. I haven't asked my parents for money since I graduated (and even before that I didn't bother..) and have almost one year paid off on my car. In 20 years it will be stupid of me to be bragging about this because by then, everyone will have a loan on a vehicle. But this is something that happened early in life when not many people even dreamed about purchasing an 8,500 car. That's not stopping me. It's time to be an adult.
