Barbie dolls. Ever had one? It was crazy back in my time.<\/p>\n

I remember how obsessed I was with them, and not only the dolls but with the accessories too\u2026 I was never the fancy one with the posh toys and I wished sooo much for whatever Barbie had, all of it! So when I got this Barbie car, the VW Beetle I wasn\u2019t going to let it get away. Even if that meant making my little cousin cry\u2026 \ud83d\ude41<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

But really now, he had his own car. Of course, it wasn\u2019t pink and it didn\u2019t write Barbie on it and it didn\u2019t came with pink luggage and Coca-Cola cans or pink flowers\u2026 Because it was made for a girl, duh!<\/p>\n

I got the car as present from my mothers\u2019 cousin, at Christmas when I was in Paris many many years ago. I usually knew what I was gonna get for\u00a0present, but this time I was completely blown away. Not only I had no idea about my present, but it was also what I had wished for for years and I just loved it! Words can\u2019t express my surprise. So I wasn\u2019t going to let anyone make me enjoy this less.<\/p>\n

Still, he had his car received as a present, so that was and remained mine. As a proof, it\u2019s still mine and I still play with it.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

And the key ring, the little pink miniature VW beetle, is now holding my real car keys.<\/p>\n

I\u2019m never gonna give it away, it\u2019s my perfect childhood memory and that\u2019s why it\u2019s part of my memories box!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
