My Dream Car

  My Dream Car I would love to be one of those people who already have their own car, or even better the type of person who worked two jobs to make enough money to buy their own car. (I find this type of hardworking person very honorable.)  Unfortunately for me, I am not that type of person as I am without a car and currently unemployed. When someone asks me the question of what my dream car is I always answer the same. "A 2011 blue Honda Accord." Oftentimes my answer perplexes them. "Why is your dream car an older model?"

The type of music I listen to depends on my mood; hence, my list will kinda be all over the place.  3. Pentatonix - White Winter Hymnal  Pentatonix is a 5 member acappella group from Texas.

With the availability of technology this 'problem' does tend to shrink. However personally, finding something to connect with someone on, when the person and myself do not share many of the same experiences, is hard. I have always had this struggle when it came to talking with my cousins.       There is a 13 year gap between my cousin Maggie and myself. In addition to  that, about 8 years ago she moved to Ireland to get her Masters in Archaeology and has stayed there since getting a job as an Archeologist  The age difference and physical distance have left the two of us disconnected.
