The day was Finally here! My birthday had finally come! its been a while since i had a good birthday, thats why i have been planning this day for 4 months. I finally had my license, so it was time for my car.  After months of persuading my dad, he finally said yes.  I got to sleep in and didnt go to school, it was my birthday, why would i want to be there? We got to the dealership at 12:30 and the searching began. Which kind of car should i get? A sports car, a used one, and brand new one? I kept looking at my dad to see what he was doing, and he would just be looking and smiling at me.  I have a feeling this will be a great day!
