My Minivan: Introduction

It's summer which means that I am home and that my sister and I are sharing a car again (the one that she's had all school year).  Sharing a car is tricky, so my parents really wanted one of us to drive our old minivan.

My mom made me drive it one day and was trying to get me on board with driving it all summer (what college kid really wants to drive a minivan???).  She said something to the effect of, "You could make it your own and have fun and drive your friends around."  And I responded jokingly, "Yep, me and my six closest friends, driving around in a minivan."  But then ideas started brewing...what if my six closest friends could be celebrities???

I'm a huge Jimmy Fallon fan, so of course he was going to be on board.  Then I had a vision of Trump in the middle of Bernie and Hillary stuck in the backseat of a minivan, and that literally cracked me up.  Me and my siblings stuffed in the backseat is bad enough...put three presidential candidates back there and chaos will ensue.  Then it came together.  Because someone/the internet started this "Fallon Timberlake for president" movement.  So, naturally, Timberlake was the final piece of the puzzle.

The thought of me driving a minivan with random heads in the back was cracking me up (and my mom and dad and siblings), so that settled it.  I would drive the minivan when absolutely necessary, but only as a chauffeur for potential future presidents.

Then I took to social media.  Keep following my blog and social media posts, because the minivan and its passengers are going to go on some fun(ny) adventures this summer, and those will be documented and shared, in hopes that they bring laughter to y'all too! (For example, I think Bernie needs to hit up Graeters again like he did when he was in Lex a few weeks ago!)

I was only half-kidding about meeting Fallon and Timberlake and being an intern at the Tonight Show.  On my bucket list is meeting Jimmy Fallon (Justin Timberlake, I'd be happy to meet you too...maybe even you people in the back...but I'm not sure about that...), and one of my college/career dreams is interning with the Tonight Show, particularly in social media (because the Fallon Tonight bloggers are STELLAR at what they do).  As an Arts Administration major with minors in Theatre and Media Arts...what could be a cooler internship????

If you want to help me out, feel free to share my original Facebook post, retweet my original tweet, follow @presidentialpassengers on instagram, share this blog, or just keep following my adventures with the squad this summer!

Stay tuned, my friends...
