shattered

i got into a car accident earlier tonight.

i was driving home from school around 6:30pm or so and i was going down the same route i always go every day.

now, this road is a dark backroad so it can be kinda hard to see at night. the infrastructure in my city isn’t the best rn to say the least.

anyways, as i was coming down the road i saw another car coming in the opposite direction. the car then drifted over the double yellow lines and hit me. thankfully there was a guardrail there that kept me from rolling into the ditch/creek below.

my airbag deployed, and both my car and the other person’s car were totaled. i lost my freaking car. it was a college gift from my grandma and i’m so sad :(

apparently the other driver had a seizure and passed out behind the wheel. i’m kinda skeptical abt that now bc she was able to get right out of the car fully conscious and speak with the police. but anyways, she was eventually taken to the hospital.

luckily i wasn’t seriously injured at all. i was just a bit bruised and shaken up. my mom took me to urgent care and they said i would be sore for a few days. i think i can already feel my neck acting up >:[

i also lost my laptop. it’s all cracked now, so i’m having to type this on my phone lol.

i’m just thankful to be alive. things could have gone so much worse.
