    My very first cassette was New Kids on the Block, I might have taken some money out of the savings jar to pay for it, but I was so excited to get it. I remember it was 8$

  • First Computer

    First Computer
    We got our first computer when I was about 13-14 years old. I can't remember when but I remember how cool I thought I was that I could do my research papers at home. Our computer was in the middle of the kitchen so it was always super noisy but we all fought to use the computer.
  • First car 8 trax

    First car 8 trax
    My uncle owned a car dealership so all of my first cars were old cars that he had traded in that my Dad and him would work on. Needless to say I had like 4 cars in the 3 years of high school. My first car was a muscle car with a huge engine that was really embarrassing because it would peel out and everyone would look. But it had a 8 trax in it and everyone thought it was so cool because they had never seen one of those.
