Old and Busted vs New Sweetness

OLD & BUSTED

AAA is the best! Saved me many many times
This was when my friend, Niesha, locked my keys in my car
Thank goodness Andrew had AAA. One of the many unforgettable memories in my Corolla.
{This is what im asking for my bday.... AAA!!!}

About 3 weeks ago my lil toyota corolla was broken into. As i walked out to my car, one saturday morning, i got this bad feeling. I didnt know what it was but i knew it couldnt be good. As i opened my car door i noticed that everything was tossed around inside. Glove compartment was thrown open and all my papers were all over the dash board was cracked open (because they were trying to get the stereo but were unsuccessful). They did take the stereos face but not the stereo itself. I tried to figure out why they didnt take the stereo and then realized that they couldnt because that stereo is pretty much GLUED to my car. Its pretty much unmovable... that stereo aint going no where! Next step, figure out what else they took. I noticed that my trunk was left open. I opened it up and noticed a huge hole... this is where my subwoofer was. Most people would be so ANGRY because a subwoofer is nothing cheap... but i laughed. Why? I blew out my subwoofer about 3 months ago - it didnt work anymore. They actually did me a favor.. i have been telling myself to take out the broken/busted subwoofer out of my truck for months.. just too lazy to do it. Thanks burglers.. you just took one task off my "to do" list. Well, after all of this excitement. 2 days later my car decided that it no longer wants to run. The fastest it would go was 10 miles an hr and i went 15 miles/hr it would jerk to the point that it freaked me out. NOOOO!!!!!!! After the mechanic took a look at it.. it was my transmission. My car was done for :(


NEW SWEETNESS!!!




Meet my new amigo. Its an "Isuzu Amigo". Its my very 1st stick shift car ever. Ahhh!


being my 1st stick shift car.. means... LEARNING!!! 1 week after i had been driving it.. i broke the clutch.. GRRR!!!! Yup, my curse for car issues hasnt ended just yet. I was driving home from work, one morning, and noticed that my car had NO power and just didnt want to drive. My whole thought process was to get the car home no matter what. HA! Didnt happen. The hospital is 30 min from my house and once i reached the hollywood hills my car would NOT go up them at all. I knew i was done for and pulled over. This is why im asking for AAA for my bday.. maybe then my car issues will vanish!

1 week later... got my car back better than ever! My best friend took me on a ride to show me how to drive properly. He even let me drive his car (its a stick).. which is a BIG deal. He doesn't allow anyone (except Josh) to drive his car.

Isn't he the best?!

I have taken the top down twice. I LOVE IT!!!! I cant wait for beach trips with my friends and just let my hair blow in the wind. My best friends love riding in it with the top down. Its so funny to hear them making plans. Josh wants tinted windows in the back & a subwoofer. Chantelle just wants to go to the beach. HA! The 1st night mondo rode in my car he broke the middle console... ugh, cant take my best friend ANYWHERE!! :)



BUT i think the BEST part of my new car is....

AIR CONDITIONING!!!!!!!!
