The Machine of a Dream, Age 21

In the 80s cars were built to last, and they didnt sacrifice anything like performance and style either. Me and my ride have seen some good times over the last 3 years and all I can say is that I couldnt be more unhappy with the caliber of car that I drive.

as you can see from far away, and with dim light, and from the right side it doesnt actually look that bad.

upon closer inspection however youll see that the hood doesnt match because it was replaced after I rear ended a Tacoma, there was no damage to his truck but my hood got taco-ed and one of the headlights now shines in the wrong direction a big thanks goes to Brian who was in the passenger seat and didnt say anything as I rolled in the truck in slow bumper to bumper traffic, and an even bigger thanks goes to Nate who went to pick-and-pull with me to get the new hood.

This is my reality for who knows how long, at the very least until I graduate UCSC, but more likely 3 and half years when I get my Masters uughh
