Today's a depressing day....I don't know why. Maybe because of the weather? It's raining cats & dogs here. Nowhere to go, nothing to do. Just watched some DVD's and google almost anything and everything.
Visited my old college classmate who's in the hospital. She was hit by a car. She's ok now, just a badly wounded knee and cuts & bruises. I remember like it was yesterday when I was in a similar accident, though I was inside the car not outside...
It was a sunny afternoon and my guy bestfirend decided to pick me up and stroll around the city. We always do that, a couple of teenagers with nothing to do at home and wants to escape the woes of homelife. We were with his other friends, when they decided to drag race. My first thought was "Drag race? at 2 in the afternoon?" But then it's his car, i'm just in for the ride.
So here we are, starting line ready to drag. The gas was revved, the engine was on fire. Then....adrenaline rushed over my body as I feel the car getting faster and faster...over 150kph.....Then he lost control...swerved all around...POW!! Hit a wall....
I hit my head on my side window, shards or windshield glass was all over my face and my chest was bruised from the seatbelt strap.
Went to the hospital. Good thing nothing serious happened to me. But it was scary. It took me years to overcome my fear of driving or being in a car. My friend was ok too. But after that, we drifted apart. Hey, if he threatened your life wouldn't you guys stop talking to each other? It took me years to forgive him too.
There, now I'm really depressed. gotta get out. I'm craving for a drink. |
