Hey people, guess what?
I got into my first car accident today. My fault, their fault. I'm not really sure. I'm vehemently saying that I yielded though. I stopped, people say I didn't stop but I did. There were two witnesses and one of them was in a parking lot where he didn't actually see anything! At first I was comepletly broken down. I'm a cautious driver, I don't get into accidents. I was just getting used to driving and this happens. Is fate out to get me or something? First, I thought I had a job in the bag and then I find out quite unpleasantly that, no, they don't want me. I was just starting to feel good about everything. I went out to a baptism, talked to the guy I liked and then got into a car accident. And then the woman gets out of her car and says "What were you thinking?!" in a rude, angry voice. I just wanted to say "I don't know, but now I'm thinking I never want to drive again!" Of course instead I said "I've never done this before." I knew I couldn't go without an accident for long, but did it have to be now?
On the bright side, now I know what an insurance and registration card look like. I was wondering about that... It's probably a good thing that I didn't know until now. Now I have to go to driving school though. I just wish the woman had been a little more nice about it. Why couldn't I have gotten a kind mother hen for my first car accident. Or an indifferent old man? My parents, they were so nice about it. I love them for that. My dad laughs it off and my mom tries to make me laugh and tell about how horrible her first car accidents were. Great, now I'm tearing up again. It did make me feel better and they are encouraging me to keep on driving. They even want me to go to this activity tonight. Heh, they're more concerned that I'm not getting out enough that a mild accident is barely a blip on the radar. Wow, I just typed mild. I think I'm really getting over it. Wow.
