I hate bills. You see, I have a bad habit of acting on impulse when I buy things. Probably my biggest example of this would somehow managing to take out a $17000 loan on my car. Basically I put myself in debt for the next 6 years but oh well. It’s become a love of mine to work on my car myself and pour more and more money into it. People tell me constantly that I’m stupid for giving myself that kind of responsibility but they have no idea,  I love my car.

I realize a lot of you reading this don’t drive because your either from the city or have no use for a car. Me, being from Long Island, it’s my only way around. I gave myself a huge responsibility because I fell in love with a car on the lot and bought it on the spot. I’ve thought about selling it once I realized, damn, that’s a shitload of money. I’m sticking with it though, she’s starting to grow on me.

It’s fun for me to work on my car and buy new parts for it. It’s a labor of love,really. If I screw up while working on it…well..I could die(technically speaking). So, it’s important to get it right. Every little thing. I have friends and friends of friends that help me if I get stuck considering knowing how to take apart an engine isn’t something everyone knows.

I don’t think it’s weird that I love my car, it’s something that’s actually mine. Countless cuts and bruises can testify to the fact I know my car inside and out for the most part. It’s not easy, but the rewards and worth it.
