As a child, I remember my grandma reading me The Little Engine that Could every time I visited her house. Which may seem slightly odd that, that’s what I enjoyed as a kid. It quickly led to me writing in school. During kindergarten, we were all about writing our own books. For example, I ended that year with 22 books.…
Free Personal Driver It would be awesome if I have a personal driver.

I began to wonder, are we allowed to sing outside during recess?…

April, 2015: My grandpa passed away from cirrhosis of the liver about 1 ½ years ago. This happened to him because he was an alcoholic during his life, he became very bloated and swelled up from water in his stomach that his liver couldn't process. It was hard seeing him like that. It was also a very hard time for my family, because two brothers that were close friends, almost family to us passed away not that long before my grandpa passed away.…

My car is a beat-up, dented, green Bonneville that is approximately the same age as me. It’s been on its last limb for the past two years, and whenever I give friends a ride, they always eye it suspiciously before opening the paint-stripped door and reluctantly strapping in. Despite its less than enticing appearance, and the fact that I can be rather unappreciative of the dying beast, it has been with me through the ups and downs of my high school career. When I was running late to school one icy morning and spun out in a roundabout, good old Bonne slid to a stop unharmed.…
Everyone’s first car is always said to be the most memorable. In my experience, I could say the same thing. Firstly, my first car was a 1993 Subaru Impreza. It was glossy black, with nice metallic wheels, a four door sedan, but extremely cool. It was all wheel drive so it was an all great first vehicle.…

There were many difficult processes that a person had to master during their lifetime, but some had different opinions on which activity was the hardest for them. I found that the most challenging task that I had to accomplish up to this point of my life was learning to drive.

"C-7625, can you hear me?" The blackness vanished as I opened my eyes. My scanners immediately survey the warehouse I'm in and my system starts. Progress bars load and data are shown in my central CPU. Big blue and black robotic arms are moving about, adding plates and connecting wires on me.…
My first car was something that I greatly was looking forward to getting as a child and my interest in getting one grew, as the days got closer to my sixteenth birthday. The first car I owned was a Automatic Black 2004 Ford f-150 truck, which I discovered on a website called Craigslist. It was priced at five thousand nine hundred dollars with only eighty-four thousand miles on it, which in my case was great considering that I could only afford a seven thousand dollar car. The truck came with all manual locks and windows and also had a small amount of hail damage that could really only be seen at a certain angle. But even with reasonable price on the truck I still attempted to negotiate for an even lower price to further my luck.…
Then, all of a sudden, I heard the roar of a car engine. A car was racing down a nearby street and then the screech car tires echoed throughout the town. “That was close, probably on the main street parallel to me”, I thought. The squeal of sliding tires kept on going and going, for what seemed like a lifetime. Then, I heard the car crash and followed by only the eerie sound of crickets in the night.…
