My first car accident

[Alysser]

So today was nothing short of eventful. I've had my license for 3 months and I get into a car wreck, with a sign. I am just so happy it was nothing more then that! As my mom said, it could've been a hell of alot worse. But I sure learned a lesson from this mistake. I'm fine, my arm is really sore but other than that nothing. I can't say the same for the yield sign. It came completely out of the ground. My car just got a flat tire, a bit of bumper damage, and a big scratch. $350 later... it shall be fine. But I was so mad at myself, I pulled into the nearest parking lot (yes with a flat) and called my parents. It was by my house. They didn't flip out, they were just happy I was okay. I told my mom I never want to drive again, she said you have to move on and learn from this. That made me feel a bit better about the whole thing.

As for how I managed to crash, well no I WASN'T texting or calling someone. No I was not playing with the radio, I zoned out. I've never done that while driving and it will never happen again. So basically, I would love to erase this entire day but I'm just trying to move on from this.

Thanks for listening to my vent. I'm gonna take this as a lesson indeed, maybe I needed it and that's why it happened. My dad said people who get in accidents become much better drivers, that's what happened to him.
