First of all I have to say hey to Natalie! Second of all, I havent updated in quite a while. My life has been turned inside and out. Two Saturdays ago I was driving to a friends house, and my car got totaled. Yes, thats right, totaled. It was a beautiful S60 Volvo. They cannot fix it to the way it was, or even fix it back to driving condition. It was the scariest night of my life. For all of you who have taken drivers ed, you add up the total of mph each car is going, and then the impact of getting hit would be the sum added up, hitting a brick wall. Well It was like hitting a brick wall at 85 miles per hour. The other car, an SUV, hit my side door while I was driving, in the middle of an intersection. I couldnt get out. My chair was twisted, glass everywhere..Even the buckle got screwed up, making it hard to find my way out. I finally crawled out of the passenger door, falling into a puddle. I was so relieved just to get out of that car. Everything in me got shaken, and for any folks who have been in a major car accident, you know what Im talking about. The other driver was perfectly fine, but I had to go to the ER in an ambulance, that was fun. But before anyone got their I called the police, then called my mom, and my sister Sam answered the phone. I was so shaken up from the wreck that I told her I had been in a Shipwreck..lol. Go ahead, laugh..I certainly did when Sam told me what I said. No bones were broken, but I am internally bruised, which means frequent contusions. It took two hours for my mom to get to the hospital. I got yelled at a lot that night, but then my mom started questioning how you take on life after something like that happens. I know God saved my life. My dad went to talk to the man that was looking at our car to see if he could fix it, and the man treated my dad like you would when someone dies. The man would not believe that his daughter could survive something like that, but I did, and without any broken bones. So I know that God helped me out that night. I've been out of school now for two weeks, deciding if I really want to continue life at Trinity, and of course having to rest. So, on tuesday I got taken out of Trinity. I am going to be taking courses at IUSB the rest of this semester, and for my senior year I'm going to Marian. I hated Trinity, and how the people acted there. Im just relieved to be out. We got a new car. Its a silver S60 Volvo, and better than our last Volvo. Well, now you all know what Ive been doin for the last couple weeks. The only people who read this thing are Josh, Natalie, Chad, Corey, Amanda, and Tod. Nick still might, but he has good reason to be mad at me, I was a jerk, so I am very sorry Nick. For all those who read this, I dearly love you, and thanks for always bein there for me.
Swing tight
