Girl = Car ?

post #262


Inspired to write this entry when I heard ring back tone of a girl who used to be close to me. Quite provocative title, didn’t you think? Well here’s what I thought about girl-car analogy.

Let say there were so many types of girls, so were cars. There were Ferrari, Lamborghini, BMW, Mercedes Benz, Audi, Honda, Jaguar, Ford, Toyota, and so on so forth. Those cars came in various shape, engine power, features, driving instruments, interior, and exterior. Of course different car specs led to different price as well.

Ok, let say I wanted to buy a car. First of all I had to determine, what kind of car that I needed, what kind of car I wanted. Could I afford that car? Could I handle (read: drive and really maximize the car’s engine capability) her? Could I give the necessary maintenance to keep her in excellent shape and condition? I had to stop dreaming to own a Ferrari if I could only afford to have a middle end Honda (Ermm…maybe I could still be dreaming, but gotta face the fact). I had to realize my own capacity, as an owner and a driver; could I handle what’s under the car’s hood? If I couldn’t, I better find another car that I could handle well. Ferrari also needed more money when it came to maintenance. How can I expect my Ferrari (if I owned one…I wishhhhhh) to be in an excellent condition if I didn’t give her the maintenance she needed. Of course Ferrari would cost much more that middle end Honda. I needed to take her to the top notch mechanic shop. She would need premium quality gasoline. Yeah I could bring her to level B (or even C) mechanic shop and give her the standard gasoline, but within time, the Ferrari condition would not be as it was and it’d be getting worse. That’s what happened if I forced myself to own a Ferrari when I could only afford a Honda. Worst case, I had to sell the Ferrari since I couldn’t afford the maintenance + tax.


Same Similar with girls. There were high class girls (so called high maintenance). It’s not their fault to be high class. It’s just they way they were. You couldn’t blame BMW to be a (high class and expensive) BMW. They had their own unique set of features characteristics. If I couldn’t keep up with her, might as well get another one that I could keep up with. It’s a compatibility thing. She might wanted to keep up with me, lower her standard. But it wouldn’t be good for her. Just like giving standard quality gasoline for Ferrari. Beside that, what if she wanted but she couldn’t. It’d be torturing for both of us. Could she be happy with what we have? Could it last on the long run? Or should I return the Ferrari back to the dealer after less than a month since I couldn’t cope with it? I might be more compatible with middle end Honda, which I could handle and maintain better. And even if I could afford a Ferrari but couldn’t handle (drive) it, it’d be too bad. It’d be only a trophy in my garage. I might need someone else to be the driver…wth… lolzzz

I've been looking for a driver who is qualified
So if you think that you´re the one, step into my ride.

My engine's ready to explode, explode, explode.
So start me up and watch me go, go, go

Get you where you wanna go, if you know what I mean.
Got a ride that´s smoother than a limousine.
Can you handle the curves, can you run all the lights?
If you can baby boy, than we can go all night.
Cause it´s zero to sixty in three point five
Baby you got the keys.
Now shut up and drive, drive, drive.
