First off, Go over and check Aroha and join Ashleenah – Pages’ comment comp! She’s a really awesome person to talk to, so make sure you actually get into talking to her. But don’t give her TOO many comments. She’ll have no time left for me! Haha!
On to my car. WINK. YEH!
My loan from Westpac came through today. After running around getting forms signed and printing off statements and shit from Kiwibank. It came through. So I’ve paid for a car. Not just any car. A Toyota Caldina. Not this actual car on this website. But the person I brought it from doesn’t have photos of it up on the web. The only difference with this car and the one I have paid for is the KM’s. Mine has less. 
So it’s not a Rav4. But frick this car is HUGE! I’ve got it from my Uncles partner. Because they upgraded to a Family Van. (lul). I think it may even be bigger then a Toyota Camry. Which I learnt to drive in. Well, which I learnt to parallel park and reverse and shit. I’m kinda hoping it’s the same size, if not smaller. because the Camry was the perfect size for me. Any bigger I may back into something. Haha.
Why do I need such a huge car? I’m not sure. I think it’s because I like big things. 
I guess it may be because I want to be able to go to the beach with heaps of people.. and just. Chill? You know? Take food and stuff. Need a huge boot for that. Haha.
Why do I say touch wood? Beause something may go wrong yet. Fingers crossed it won’t. Atm it’s getting a cam belt change, a water pipe replaced, and break pads replaced. They don’t NEED replacing right now. They’ll get me to the next warrant. But Allen1 would prefer me to have good breaks now. And he’s doing everything for me. So he’s not charging labor.2 So unless I crash the thing. It should pass warrants for some time to come.
My dad is bringing it down.3 And I’m paying for the whole trip. Food, petrol, sleeping, flight back, boat down.. It’ll be expensive, but I guess that’s what I can use the rest of the loan for. Because I got $8500, and I paid $6500 for the car (Orig was $6000 because of the fixing it needs, I’m paying for parts. Which I don’t mind at all).

Congratulations with the car! I think it’s nice. I also like big cars but I think when I get a car I will get a small one. Lol.
Thanks for advertising my competition too.
I think Hannes knows I want kids but I don’t want to even go any where near that conversation with him as like he’s so young. Lol. Might scare him away.
He knows I love kids though. I want to steal his step-nephew. Lol.
Oh don’t worry, hardly anyone has heard of Breaking Benjamin, but they’re my favourite band. ^_^
Yeah a lot of people take advantage of it over here which sucks. That sucks they wouldn’t give you a loan, they wouldn’t give me one either. >_< I've got a temporary job though.
May turn into a permanent one.

Yeah we never really got a lot for Christmas, I just see it as spending the day with your family etc. I really want an xbox though lmao.
Aww, sorry you guys keep fighting.
He should understand why you've been clingy though. I was really clingy to my boyfriend at one point lol.
YAYYYY!! Congrats on getting a car.
That's awesome! And that's a pretty good car too. 
LOL, sorry I have a dirty mind and laughed when you said you like big things lmao. I don't think I could drive a big car because I'm only 5ft 2ins, I wouldn't be able to see over the steering wheel.
I've got my fingers crossed that nothing goes wrong!
Congratulations on your new car! I hope everything works out for you
I liked bigs cars too, but guess it’s more practically and envoirnment friendly to get a smaller one
My family used to have a Land Cruiser before, and it was annoying finding parking space to fit it >.<
Congratulations on getting your new car! WOW.
I like small cars, I don’t think it’s a British thing but I like to think I can fit into any parking space without worrying about it too much, y’know?
If I was going to the beach, I would just rent a van or something or borrow the family car which is a seven seater already.
I wish I knew how to drive.
