A car would be nice


While in the HEB parking lot, I saw the best beetle ever. The picture above was taken at the HEB on blanco and 1604. However, it also caused me to ponder why I do not have a car at college. Cars are a necessity because it has grown out of being a convenience. Instead of trying to find a ride to the walmart or HEB< you can drive yourself! Countless times, I have to rely on friends in order to travel to get my bare necessities, consisting of food, water, and movies. Yet, sometimes I wish that I had my own car so that I do not have to rely on others. The knowledge that I could drive myself to anywhere I wanted is a glorious feeling, but I unfortunately am not able to experience it at the moment.

My brother ended up taking the car we shared in high school up to his college and I was left with nothing. At first, I didn't complain. However, the first year of college has caused me to realize what a mistake it was to not fight for the car. Though there is not much to do around Trinity, the fact that we were supposed to share the car yet he has it to himself still irks me. I suppose the world is not meant to be fair but still... sometimes you have to wonder why you never fought for that car.
