Another accident

I had another accident. Shitshitshit.

---

I really didn't want to talk about the accident. It was traumatic enough to go through one; it was another thing to have it happen again even if you're not in the driver's seat. It was yesterday morning when it happened. My dad was going to drop us off to school. As we made a right turn to Greenwood Avenue, our car skidded and made a 90⁰ turn, crashing into the car behind us. That's the other car in the picture--the driver's door was totally destroyed. He also had a flat tire. Our only damage is a broken front light. Why did we skid, you ask? Well, it snowed heavily the night before. It would have been fine because the streets were cleaned. But the sun chose to appear, melting some of the snow, thereby making it more slippery. Ayoko na grabe. My dad, of course, got the ticket. What's surprising is he wasn't given any options. The police officer told him to go to traffic court next year. What a great way to end the year and start a new one. Shit. I'm never going to drive again. Merry Christmas huh? Oh before I forget, are you familiar with the adage "It comes in threes?" Yeah scares me too.

At 4:59 AM, notyourtypicalmedstudent commented...: Wawa naman you, girl. I'm glad to know you're okay. Any abrasions, lacerations, broken bones, etcetera? I hope not =)

Don't let your fears of getting another accident stop you from driving again though. According to the books, best way to get over a fear is to face them right away. As soon as possible. So, get right back behind the wheel right away and just always always ALWAYS be careful, okay?

Miss you, girl. Take care always!
