After I got my license in June 2015, I was nervous to take the test in the Camry. When I passed the test I found driving my car was so much fun because I never drove by myself. I was excited to drive myself everywhere. When you have friends in the car with you, your friends make the ride along a whole lot better rather you driving by yourself.

    Josiah, I liked the way you structured your introduction to your meaningful place, by juxtaposing it against conventionally sought tourist attractions and by painting a quaint, picturesque image using the details along Reesor Road. As such, the Robert Frost allusion fittingly contributes to the tranquil atmosphere with which Reesor Road is portrayed. A poignant point in your essay was when you mentioned that your family entrusting the Toyota for your utility resembles a rite of passage. How might this shift in faith as you enter emerging adulthood relate to parental expectations of your obligations as a young adult?…

    I've always heard that drivers should practice "defensive driving. " It makes sense, we all know how big a car is and how fast it can go, you can find all of those numbers somewhere on the car itself. We all know someone who has been in an accident, be it minor or major. When cars collide, it can be catastrophic and everyone knows it well. But somehow, at least for me, the idea of it actually all being real didn't happen until I had gotten into an accident where I was forced to deal with the consequences of even a minor collision.…

    “Mom, I can’t do it,” I repeated, exasperated, for the second time since we started driving together the previous week. It was the summer I turned 17 and I was finally conquering my Achilles’ heel — learning to drive. The car moved slightly too much to the left.

    As the end of my high school education draws near, I wonder if I am ready for the next step. Have I learned everything I need to know to be a successful adult? Looking back, school has been my life…and a pretty good life too. For the last twelve years, it has stretched and molded my mind and laid the foundation in preparation for the rigor of college and medical school. Though my formal education is invaluable, I would have to say, some of the greatest knowledge I have acquired did not come from a classroom but from a job and the events leading up to the job.…

    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.…

    Being part of the generation who grew up watching Fast and the Furious films has always made me want to drive a car. At that time I knew I still had a while before I could drive, but any chance I got to be in the driver seat I would. My first time I ever got behind the wheel was right after I watch the fast and the furious in 2001. It was during the summer, my mom was washing her car and according to her “I accidently locked myself inside and somehow I managed to turn the car on and started backing up the car.” My mom was so scared she started yelling “put the car on park” “put the car on park” but I had no clue what she meant.…
