Crash! Boom! Bang!

Alrighty, so, yesterday on my way to school I had my first accident. I stopped at a light and the girl behind me stopped but the girl behind her careened into her, who in turn lurched forward and hit me. It was only a fender bender but a slightly more intense one because the damage was a little more severe. My car luckily is nationally noted for being a tank and seriously indestructible. But, I was shaken. I didn’t cry though. The other two girls weren’t sobbing but they were definitely crying. I was rather amazed at how well I handled it. I called my parents and they said they were on their way but by the time they got there I already did everything. The policeman seemed to really appreciate having a girl who was level headed and not panicking. The mother of the girl that hit us was really impressed by how calm I was. I totally attribute it to God. No one was hurt, my car was ok, and in fact, I considered it lucky that I stopped the girl behind me from getting pushed into the intersection. But, the poor girl who was behind me, her car was crunched from both sides pretty bad. The front of the girl’s car that rear-ended her look like she damaged the engine because lots of fluids were leaking out everywhere. I was trying to lighten the mood by telling these girls it was okay. These things happen and I was not mad at all. The girl that was in the middle ignored me. But the other girl sorta listened out of politeness. I asked her if it was her first accident and she said it was her second. Man, now I knew why she felt so bad. Anywho…I told her it was my first accident and I was kind of relieved because I knew that it would happen eventually so now I have it over with and I know that I can handle it on my own. I don’t think my light heartedness was helping anyone though so I went back to standing by myself. Then, my parents arrived and they took my car to the shop and I took my dad’s car and proceed to school where I missed half of my sociology class. The End. Good story huh?

    jacob mentioned to me yesterday that you had arrived extremely late to your class… but he said nothing as to why… and you know what, within two weeks of me having my drivers license i slid down puritas hill (on ice) and crashed into the guard rail and it turned Stella all the way around and bent her axelrod. yeah i was crying pretty hard and no one stopped to help me. i’m glad your tank made it through all right. i’ve gotten bumped a few times while driving the Heatless Wonder and sometimes i don’t even bother getting out of the car, she’s so damaged anyways. wow what a long comment. i guess i’m the best of your friends who’ve commented, eh??

    G’day Mary Poppins

    That’s so wierd that you mention Mary Poppins because yesterday in class someone said that I reminded him of Mary Poppins.(Probably because I AM practically perfect in every way.) But, now, that movie has been on my mind.

    Yes Ellen I will never forget that day b/c at that point Stella was MY car!! and i even called home to tell mom not to let you drive b/c the roads were bad, obviously she didn’t care – but i was truly very worried about you…if no one stopped to help you, what did you do? My poor Ellen.
