Sooo guess what I got last week! (if you follow me on instagram you already know the answer) ... A NEW CAR! Ahhhhhh I have just been ecstatic about it! I've been driving a 2001 Mitsubishi Eclipse (aka Roxanne) since I was 16 and man oh man it feels good to say goodbye to her. Roxanne made me appreciate the small things though. I now can go through a drive through (Roxanne's window hasn't gone done since March -__-), I can load groceries in my car (Roxanne's trunk was a hatchback that wouldn't stay up.. hasn't in like 4 years), and my new car is quiet and super smooth (Roxanne was super loud and vibrated)! I love my new Mazda, but she needs a name! Got any ideas for me? Do you name your cars too?

  10. Ahhh, perfect color yellow! I totally named my car. It's a black one named Poe (yep, after the author who wrote "The Raven." I'm a nerdy English teacher.) What about Lucy? Because, after all, everyone loves Lucy :)

  13. I just found your blog! I live in Baton Rouge, I love thrifting, I used to drive the 2000 Mitsubishi Mirage(named Mitzy) that I had in high school(granted, I LOVED my Mitz) until I replaced her with a shiny new Mazda 3 last year. I named my Mazda Madeleine May, but for short, I call her Maddie. Basically, I feel like we're the same person! Anyways...sorry this is weird...but thats my car story : )

  14. Naming our cars is a fun thing, and it also allows us to regard them as something far more than just a thing to transport us from point A to B. Cars are a part of our daily lives. And so, it's great news that you finally said goodbye to your old one and is greeting your new one with a huge smile on your face. As for the name, I think Michelle will suit her since she looks stylish and fab. Don't you think so? Well, that's just me. I wonder what you named her.
