19 Things Every Girl Has in Her Car

So much dirty change everywhere.

Eyewear, Motor vehicle, Vision care, Fun, Glasses, Automotive design, Sunglasses, Goggles, Automotive mirror, Summer,

1. Lots of dirty pennies you'll never use. They're useless and as such, must live among the pile of crumbs between the driver and passenger seats.

2. All the empty Starbucks cups. Two in both your drink holders and the rest strewn across the backseat. If you collected and cleaned them all, you could open your own cafe. 

3. Random old receipts that are basically embedded in your carpet. That is their home now.

4. Tissue graveyard. Alert the CDC: Your car is probably a biohazard. 

5. Chapsticks. At least five of them, in various stages of crustification, in every crevice and crack of your car's interior.

6. Fifteen tote bags. At least. (And you still always forget your bags when you go into Trader Joe's!)

7. Random piles of papers. College applications from five years ago, tax forms, letters of reference, printed out Cathy cartoons. You name it. 

8. Many cardigans draped over seats and crumpled on the floor. You gotta layer! 

9. Hand sanitizer that's been used once and is all covered in crusty gunk now. Ewww! (And yet, you never throw it out. Life! It's nuts!)

10. Five extra pairs of shoes. Mainly shoes you removed before you started driving because they were too painful but also just a few random pairs. 

11. Yoga mat. Whether you actually do yoga or not. (You've only been to three classes but bought your own mat because you thought it was going to be a ~*lIfEsTyLe ChAnGe*~.) (The same goes for any sort of workout clothing, as well.)

12. Fast food bags with a few stray French fries in the bottom.

13. Jumper cables your dad got for your car because "I'm worried about you." (Although, TBH, my mom got me mine so no need to be sexist, I guess!)

14. Random makeup. You've lost at least three mascaras to the secret caverns of your car. They now live down there with old French fries, muffin crumbs, and 10,000 dirty pennies. 

15. Roughly 50 valet stubs. Probably only relevant to Los Angeles but that struggle is real. 

16. A bag of stuff you keep meaning to drop off at Goodwill. Someone's gonna want those mom jeans!

17. A few pairs of sunglasses. Your car is where sunglasses go to die/live their best lives.

18. Something your mom left behind. Where do you think you learned this gross car behavior? Your learned it from watching her!

19. Your insurance and registration. You think. It's in here somewhere. Right?
