Eleventh Grade You can drive my car How many times have you wished that you had a car? For many of us, the answer to this question is in the hundreds. We wait anxiously for our dream car. Every- body ' s dreamed of having their very own car. From the day we realize that having our parents driving us around can get a little hectic, we begin scheming on a plan to get one, the sooner the better. When my parents pick me up, I think it ' s pretty cool ' cause they show they care, and even though I would rather have my own car, my parents will do for the time being, Armida Ayala, junior said. Whenever I ask my parents to drive me anywhere, they make a big deal out of it, so I end up not going or taking the bus, Susan Cortez, junior said. To most of us the dream of having our own car is only till our sixteenth birthday, but not all of us are that lucky. I had my car and my motor- cycles a long time before I had my license, Kelly Lambert, ju- nior, said. When I suggested to my parents that it was about time that I should get my car, they had a fit.. They said that I had to wait until I got my car. And until then, getting my own car was completely out of the ques- tion, Tricia Estares, junior said. I asked my parents to get me a car, but they told me that I would first need to find a job and buy it, Leah Ellsworth, ju- nior, said. I think we could all agree on one thing, it would make every- body happy if we could get what we wanted, namely a car. Bv Wendy Hernandez J I k ' : - ' C-!
