And This Week In My Life...

This past week has probably been one of my worst to date, excluding those where people have died. Like, for a normal week, it sucked hardcore, and tell you me, that sucking started out strong. 

Last Friday I was in a car accident. I was heading up to see my mom and aunt about an hour north of where I go to school and about five miles away from my exit I got into a crash. I was in the far left lane of a four-lane highway and I looked down for a second. When I looked up I was over the rumble strips and I was afraid I was going to go off the road, so I turned my wheel, but I think I might have been on some ice or something because I lost control of my car. It started to swerve majorly to the right, and I couldn't make it stop and I think I started to spin. The next thing I saw was one of those reflector poles that have the little circle on top on the side of the highway, and it was coming straight for my driver's window, and I tried, but I couldn't do anything about it, and then I was hitting it and my window was shattered and I was going through the ditch and then my car wasn't moving anymore. 

It was weird, because I knew what shock was like and I could tell I was in shock and all I could think was 'I need to call 911. I need to call my mom. I need to call people.' And then there were people coming up to my car and getting me out and helping me. Eventually both my mom and my aunt came; the police too eventually. But I think that's the scariest thing that's ever happened to me. Even just typing this out and reliving it like this, my hands are shaking. I can't get the moment that I saw the post coming straight at me, and knowing that I was going to hit it and that it was right at eye level, out of my head. 

My car is wrecked. It's not worth what it would cost to fix it. so Tug the Impala is no longer. 

Two days after that my aunt fell an broke her wrist really badly and my mom had to take her to the hospital (we were still staying with her). It was just really scary to see that, 'casue her wrist looked bad, and she was in shock and crying and I had to try and keep her calm and it was just kind of awful.

Two days after that I came down with the flu, and had that for two days. I absolutely hate being sick when I'm not at home-I turn into a complete baby when I'm sick (especially with something like the flu where I feel gross and I'm throwing up). So, since I was out a car, I had to ask my friends to pick me up anti-sick-person-flu stuff, like ginger ale and crackers. Now me, I actually hate asking people to do things for me. I don't like confrontation, and asking favors is akin to a confrontation with me. 

I also had a physics text on Friday which did not go over well. I studied really hard in physics, but it still doesn't make sense to me, and I know I'm not stupid, so it's really frustrating to study for hours and get nowhere. 

And that all happened within a week. So yeah. I just needed to vent.
