Problem: Dear Diary , For the first time in a long time , I have to say that I think that my parents ( well , at least my mom ) is accepting the fact that I need to drive . I feel that for my own sake of independence , I need my own car . I hope what my mom said is true -- that she will help me out in some way with the payment of the car , but I ' m not depending on it .

What will most plausibly happen after the conversation with the writer 's mom ?

A: The writer will begin saving for a car .

Problem: Hundreds of thousands of Central Ohioans got their electricity wiped out . I was one of them . I was without power for 48 hours - not bad considering some folks are still without . I also lost half my roof shingles , but thank goodness for the condo association !

How do I feel about the situation ?

A: I do n't like it but compared to others , It 's not as bad .

Problem: Great guy by the way . On the other side , I was on my own for 15 mins in the cold this evening and the 376 bus to Bristol drove past and a tiny part of me longed for my own warm bed and a cup of Indian Chai . But I pictured Gandhi 's face and next thing a friend came along and the weakness disappeared .

What may happen before the bus arrives ?

A:
I will talk with my friend .
