It's official........

I need a new car....
I am tired of having to find a ride to class when I own my own vehicle...... this makes absolutely no sense that I can't get a new car. My mother won't help me because she thinks that the car that I have is perfectly fine, and she doesn't think that I need a new bill.
but please...... everyone and their mothers can tell that I need a new car ( or a slightly used car) that is not going to break down on me with a turn of the hat.
My current car decided to break down at the worst time.
1. the day before a test..... how was I supposed to get to class to take my test (luckily I have good friends)
2. I was supposed to go to homecoming this weekend, but now with the car out of commission I won't be going
3. I am tired of spending money on repairs.... in the last 4 months I have spent almost $500 on parts and another 200-300 on repairs when you add up all the little things.

I just think that I blew the down payment for my new car fixing the old one and really nothing has been repaired that really need to repaired like the windows, the locks, the sunroof, and the rims ( although the rims are not essential).

To add insult to injury I had to go spend about 3 hours today getting my tag renewed. All I could think about was I was resigning myself to this situation for another year... then I get to the window and the lady takes my check and she asks me for my place of employment...... when I told her that I was currently unemployed ( which I have NEVER had to say before since I was old enough to work) she had the nerve to give me this look like she wasn't going to take my check then she writes unemployed on the check and asks me for a bunch of other information that I don't even think they need.
I was embarrassed and more than a little upset. But I got the tags renewed and I was out an on my way to class.
So the next dilemma that I have is that my mother had me wait until I was unemployed and can't get financing for a car. ( I think this was part of her plan)
But I vow that after the first of the year I will be driving a new car and I won't have the problems that I am having right now with my vehicle.
OK.... that is enough of my vent session.... back to your regularly scheduled program.......
