// I Believe // All my life I’ve had to work for the things I have wanted and all my life I did the things my dad asked me to do and got the things I wanted. When I was young and didn’t have my drivers licensee I stayed at home and didn’t do much besides go outdoors and play in the woods. I always wanted a bow and I asked my dad to get me one and he said I had to clean the garage and my room so I did the simple task they would ask and sure enough the next day I had a bow. As I grew up I always helped my dad and he would return the favor in the things I wanted. As I got older the things started to change like the things getting more expensive to get for the little work I did so I thought about getting a job. On my 16th birthday my parents gave me my sister’s old car and they said they would pay for the gas and insurance. At the time I was just so happy I didn’t care who was paying for it but then I remembered how I grew up so I started the payments and got a job and it’s been great ever sense that. When I’m working for the things I want it makes me feel a lot better when I get the things I want. I feel like its better when you do it on your own because you can get whatever you want and you don’t have to be scared to break it or mess it up because your dad and mom would be pissed. When I get out of high school I plan on going off to college but I am staying in Mt. Pleasant for the money reasons. When my sister went to college she had my parents pay for a lot of the stuff involved and it was really hard on them to try to pay for it. I wanted to help so I started to save my money because the school I wanted was a lot of money so I wanted to work for it and that’s why I believe in working hard for what you want
