Christmas Wishlist

& birthday/ 10 years worth

By: Your loving 3rd born

Firstly, to my loving parents

I want to express that I am extremely grateful for everything you've done for me. I know sometimes I don't show it, but I am extremely grateful for everything you do, not only for me, but for everyone ( even when they don't deserve it). I would not be the person I am today without your support, and for that, I am so grateful to have parents like you.

What I want/need

A new car :)

Why I need a new car (part 1)

• My car hates me
• If I stop at too many red lights, then my car will start shaking uncontrollably and refuse to accelerate.
• I have ran a considerable number of red lights because if I stop too fast, my car will start shaking
• I drive at least 68 miles/ an hour and a half five/six times a week
• I need a reliable car
• I have, on average four mental breakdowns a week because of my current car

• I shake unontrollably in my car because it makes me so anxious to drive anywhere
• I think my car is going to blow up the majority of the time
• Mel has 150,000+ miles on her

• I am almost positive Mel will not make it through the winter, also, the thought of driving her in this condition through the winter is bordering on a panic attack every time I think about it
• Mel has been through a lot, and I think she deserves to rest in peace.
