Yesterday I was walking home from the gym after a full productive day of work when it struck me how weird it is to go from horrific deathdefying car accident back to normal so quickly....I have to put effort into thinking about it to acknowledge it even happened, it seems so unreal.
What DOES seem real, however, is the $2000 I had to pay to the rental company for the damn car. They charged that amount, and that's what they get to take until the vehicle inspection comes back. If they find something wrong with the car (from before the accident) or if the damages are less than that, money will be reimbursed, but for right now I have to assume the worst. I totally wanted to be another $2000 in debt to my parents. Awesome.
I feel a little guilty because today I booked my trip to Wanaka next weekend and that includes my little skydiving expedition...it's going to cost about $400, and I could NOT skydive...but...It's something I feel like I have to do while I'm here. Now I just have to hope the weather is clear enough on the day I've booked so that I can actually go through with it!
I feel like there is so little time left for me here...and I guess it's true. Three more weekends of fun here, then I'm off for Australia and home!
