My Bad

So the other day I created my first car accident. Traffic was going, then traffic was not going. I rear-ended a large F150 who was at a standstill after quickly slamming his brakes. His bumper had a couple of scratches. My bumper had a few scratches. Except, my radiator, headlights, hood, and grill were all destroyed. So it was truck: 1 my car:-20. It probably would have been a bad fender bender if I managed to hit his bumper. But since his bumper is so much higher than mine, it created substantial damage. So is the way of living in the south with good 'ole boys that need pick up trucks in the city. Oh well. Luckily I wasn't going *that* fast (I estimate around 20-30 mph) and no one was hurt. I still feel incredibly guilty, since my parents are nice enough to foot the bill. My insurance will increase, and I'm out of a car for about a week (or so the shop says). Oh well, it could have been worse, and my car could have been totaled. So that was my "oops" moment of the week.

I was planning on going to see my friend this weekend, but since I'm down a car that wasn't feasible. I'll just go and see her some other weekend. So I'll just have to spend my 3 day weekend studying. Hopefully I can pass the virology test and do decent on the board so I can pass the most useless class in medical school history. I mean seriously, even psychology doesn't take themselves as seriously as these jerks do. I've also got a lot of pathology to catch up on. I've been avoiding this block since it's filled with neuro. Tomorrow may turn into pathology day since I have an online quiz I need to complete. I have a friend coming in town monday so that's fun. I owe him a birthday cake. He wants strawberry cake with cream cheese icing. yum.

Things haven't been extremely eventful. I got off the exercise routine because of the accident, but I plan to get back in the game tonight. Maybe I can make some time to clean as well this weekend.

Keep it real, stay away from herpes.

That really sucks. I'm glad everyone's okay though!
