so.. i leave the house at 8:04 this morning..
by 8:14...
it doesnt look very bad but there was all kinds of stuff ripped out from underneath, and a lovely dent on the floor in the back ebhind the driver seat.
popped rear driver side tire, and the driver side bumper and headlight are all smashed up
wet road conditions, too close to the edge, over corrected, wheels locked. i was screwed..
i remember overcorrecting and the car locking up and swerving to the left, then the right, then im not sure if it did the whole thing again or not.. i remember seeing the refector post and hitting it, i remember seeing the ground coming at me from my driver side window, and i remember bouncing a lot..
the people who saw it said i spun around midair going down the bank.
it was a couple guys who saw it. they were heading west, i was heading east. they went past and turned around and came back. i remember as soon as it happened i put the car in park and got out. i remember walking to the back of my car and like holding ym chest and breathing really hard and my heart was pounding. these guys were in a lime green van from some water and heating company and my cell didnt have enough service to call home, and theirs did so they let me use it. no one picked up so they offered to give me a ride home which was about 6 miles away or so. i got home talked to my mum, took some advil, drank some tea, called towing, called the college to let them know i wouldnt be in class, went back to the site, took everything out of my car, took pictures sorry they are poor quality.
car is totaled. as i said it doesnt look very bad. i didnt get pics of the front end for whtever reason.. or i did and they are on the camera that died and thats why i started to use my phone
i got myself a mild case of whiplash and jarred my body a fair bit but im okay.
i think i must be like a cat.. cause that could have been much much worse. as you can see someone going faster than me did just about the same thing before, and smashed into that abandoned house.
my right ankle hurts a bit as well as right hip and my back. the main things that hurt are my neck and my right wrist.
i woulndt be quite so pissed about this if we hadn't shelled out $1175 2 and a half months ago, to replace the heater core and radiator. grrr ![]()
but again. im ok.
back to the cat business.. ive used up about 5 lives now.
one when i was a baby.
another about 4 years ago when we were having a bonfire and the gas can caught fire. i wasnt thinking really, just knew i had to get that out.. it was in my hand.
another when i nearly got my leg blown off with an elephant gun. that was scary as shit. theres a piece of the siding of the house with a nice hole in it.
another time when my mum and i nearly got taken out by a semi
and then today-had i been going faster(was going 50) and been in a less sturdy car.. and had the car done a few things differently i would be hurt pretty badly. im still a little shaken but thats ok.
i guess ill leave it at that...
would also appreciate it if those of you who havent yet check out the set i uploaded to my albums. i wont be submitting it but i'd still like to know you you all think.
Unsubmitted
take care everyone.
