My first car was a hand-me-down from my cousin, a 2001 VW Jetta. He had driven for about a year and finally decided to get something more extreme and furious. At that time, I was really excited to have a car like this since having possession of a giant chunk of sheet metal that one can call his/her own makes one swell with pride.
Being a girl with a heart for racing made me wondering how fast that I can go with this piece of monster. So I made a plan and took my Jetta to an empty freeway one night and drove down on the fastest line about 120 miles per hour. Luckily there was no police officer around and I was able to get away with this.
I had so much fun with owning this car. If I had not lent this car to my friend Lonnie then I would still own this car till today. Lonnie had borrowed my Jetta to pick up her friend at the airport because her car was in service that day. And then the accident happened during her way to the airport, she hit some kind of metal debris on the road and my Jetta was totaled and luckily she was ok. I didn’t even get the chance to say goodbye to my Jetta. It was a sad experience for me since I only had owned this car for six months and she was my very first car. I regretted that I did not take a good care of her and let her go for something like this. I guess C'est La Vie, and I’ve learned my lesson.
