My Treat..My reward...my Childhood Dream

I can remember like it was yesterday, being dropped off 2blocks away from school, sometimes further, or even walking to school, to avoid being seen in our family car. As a child, I can still recall the laughs, and being teased about the beat up old, raggedy, station wagon that my mother drove.
One time, the reverse went out in it, and she would have to park so that we could just drive straight on out of wherever it is that we were, but this time she had forgotten. So could you imagine our surprise when she told us after coming out of Big Way supermarket in HI, where everyone shops at being that it was the local market with the lowest prices...that had to push it BACKWARDS!!!! OMGosh...you have to be insane WOMAN! Which was my first thought...I cant remember if it was my brother who said..." We're just going to wait for the car in front of us to come out, then you can just go forward ".....but that never happend. So we did, we pushed it backwards, just so we could be stared at, and snickered at by the neighborhood kids that were there shopping with the folks. I HATED that car! But you do what'cha gotta do...of course I never knew that then, or could even come close to understand what my mother had to of felt.
But I remember sitting in the back of that old wreck of a car at a stop light, and a BMW, pulled up next to us. To myself, my thoughts were...when I grow up...I'm buying one of those. It had to be sign when I was walking to school the next day, and I seen the same car pull up to the curb to drop a new student off to our school...I remember her name was Anette Higa..she was a nerd, but her parents were loaded.
Anwyas, I made a promise to myself then that I'm buying one of those, I have to own one before I die.
Well, 22 years later and still no Beamer...well Not yet that is.
Once my promotion is finalized...Yup Yup...I'm buying me one of these...

I got my eye on this one. I like the late 90's models. It's a 98' and it's freaking CHERRY. I'm going to reward myself with my life long childhood dream car baby..and I'm going to ball my head off once I do! This is to you meaner (our new family word) kids that teased me in my mommies old wreck of a car! Wow that felt good to type..LOL, but alright, I gotta go to work..it's almost 6:15am. I have to go and do my thing if this CAR is going to be mine..let me rephrase that...It will be mine!
I should call the dealership (because it's actually available locally) and tell them to get it ready for me huh?? J/k..alright, until next time!
Keep reaching for the stars...I am and I'm making all my dreams reality.
