This is not beauty related but about something that happened to me this morning.
The Story: I was driving to work like I normally do on a rainy day.. I guess today was rainier than usual rainy days and my car started to hydroplane :( At first it was like going back and forth and then the car started to twirl in circles! I seriously don't know how far and long I was spinning I was just thinking PLEASE DON'T HIT ANYTHING! But then I felt it hit in the rear and I guess that's when I hit my head on the steering wheel :T... I didn't realize it because I was so numb and cold from the rain and when I got home and started defrosting, I felt the bump on my head and then my neck is kind've hurting but I don't think it's anything. My boyfriend really wants me to go get it checked out tomorrow but I don't have time until Tuesday or something. I ended up in the middle lane on the interstate and the car straight as if I could just start my car and keep driving. THAT WOULD BE THE CASE except for the fact that I already hit stuff. A car pulled over to the lane on the right and stopped to see if I were okay and a trucked pulled up next to me and checked if I was okay and told me I needed to move over. I was freaking out because the car wouldn't start but it did afterwards. I was in complete shock because CD's flew everywhere and like literally.... everything flew everywhere! I didn't cry and I ran out of my car with no jacket on and got soaked and was just freaking out and I could feel myself shaking :( The guys told me I needed to call the police over and I did and the truck left but the car stayed with me until help came.
I ended up on the bridge and was like WHOA! I could've fell into the Trinity River! OMG, that would've been even scarier but luckily I didn't. I was no where near any other cars so no one else got hit by me which was even more lucky! I also don't have any real damage to my body so I guess that's another thing to be thankful for. There was a Medstar ambulance passing by and they stopped to check if I was okay. Then there was another ambulance that was already coming, and there was a firetruck coming, and two police cars. It was so embarrassing for me because I'm like do we really need this many people?!?! They really urged me to go to the hospital to get checked out but honestly I wasn't feeling any obvious pain and really thought that all the people that came was so unnecessary! I did start crying like crazy though whenever I called my boyfriend because it really just hit me then that I just smashed my car up! lol, and when I think about my car now I start crying too. I guess I just haven't gotten over it yet.
Okay, so we don't know if the car is totaled yet until the insurance people come to look at it but if it's fixable we're going to fix it and if it's totaled, then I'm going to be really sad! Honestly I love my car... If we fix it then I will drive a rental car until it's fixed and if it's totaled then they're going to take it away and we look for another car and I am forced to drive a Mercedes around! OMG, like seriously?! I just got into an accident with the bridge (which wasn't my fault but maybe the rain) and you're gonna give me a Mercedes to drive :O... I honestly don't want to drive it around because gas is going to be expensive so hopefully my car is fixable! :)
Here are the photos of the car! I tried to put the least painful to look at first.. lol. You can literally see that I rammed into the bridge like all over by the damage :(
What I'm not loving is that I cannot open the trunk and I have text books in there! ZOMG @_@ What about my schoolwork?! LOL, well I can go in from the inside so I'm gonna do that tomorrow.
So what do you think? Is it totaled? I don't know! I'm just really sad to see my baby in this condition :(
My birthday is coming up on the 22nd this month! I'm gonna try to hurry up and get my giveaway posted up but I'm not going to be allowed to drive the Mercedes anywhere except to school and back so I'm gonna have to find someone to drive me to the post office! :T
<333
OMG!!! lindah! I hope you are fine and please get it checked out cause.. i've known some ppl who didn't go check themselves out and crashes were bad but they felt it wasn't bad but they were peeing out blood the next day. Just go check yourself out and your neck. Your neck is crucial for the rest of your body to function well!
ReplyDeletebtw, i am never lucky. thanks for hosting the giveaway!
OMFG im so sorry lindah!!u shud get ir self checked.u dunno if there s internal bleeding coz ur car look so damned!
ReplyDeleteI am glad you are fine and I am sorry about your car and what happened. Friendly advice though, you really need to be checked at the hospital. Do not take anything at face value at this point. You can never be too sure. Vanilla is right about the possible internal bleeding or something.
ReplyDeleteOmg, thankfully you're ok! That's all that matters... and the car situation does suck, but as long as your okay. I'm sure everything will work out with your car. I got into an accident right after I got my license, it's the scariest thing ever. I just hit someone in front of me. But then my boyfriend and I got into ANOTHER accident where we did a 360 and then we rolled twice in the air into an embankment... it's SO scary.. so I know how you're feeling now!! But I'm glad your okay..
ReplyDeleteOh no! :( I'm glad you're okay though!
ReplyDeleteAwww Lindah I'm so thankful you're okay and sorry to hear about what happened! I agree with everyone else though, def. do get checked out, you never know! :(
ReplyDeleteIt looks fixable to me but it'll cost a lot... the Mister had his s2k smashed to hell but they didn't claim it totaled. He paid to fix it but it cost him scriiipts. He shoulda just bought a new car -_-;
Well, the main thing is that you're okay babe! *hugs*
omg babe. I'm glad you're fine but you're fuckin Acura!!! So fuckin messed up. From the front... yes, it looks like it's fixable (about $250-$600ish) but the back... oh gee... it's going to a cost A LOT. So if you are to get it fix, I hope you have full coverage insurance. The insurance people will let you know how much they're willing to give to you to fix up the stuff so then, you'll know if it's worth to get it fix or it's a goner. I think you'll be able to fix it though.
ReplyDeleteSweetheart, I'm with your bf on this... you should go get a check-up asap just to be sure.
As long as you're safe, that's all that matters. I hope things get worked out soon & the car can get fixed. <3
ReplyDeletewow i'm glad you are safe and not hurt. i don't think it's totaled - the front looks fixable but the back may be very expensive to fix. hope it works out!
ReplyDeleteoh my gosh babe! what a terrifying experience. i feel u coz i had an accident b4. anywho...i do agree w/most of these ladies..GO GET UR ASS CHECKED UP!!!! internal bleeding/injury is not what u need. u hit ur head!? go get a cat scan!! head injury can lead to paralyze!! so dun worry about ur car or what car ur going to drive!!! go take care of urself and go get checked up!!
ReplyDeletetrust me babe...u may feel all good in the outside, but ull never kno whats going on inside!! trust me i have seen this type of case w/patients.
ReplyDeleteomg im sorry to hear! as long as ur sfae... but the bump on ur head.. i hope ur alrite & will feel better soon........
ReplyDeleteoh my gosh honey please check it out!! i know you may not feel too sick but after a major accident like that, you HAVE to check it out!
ReplyDeletei hope you're doing okay :( r.i.p acura :(
Oh, i'm so sorry to hear this! hope you're alright and you should check if you are really okay :)
ReplyDeleteOh my Linds, this is very serious. The damage is really obvious. I agree with the other bloggers, you should get checked up and I mean a thorough check up. The car will be fixed in time, it's you that really matters.
ReplyDeleteSeriously, that's a really damaged car, but I'm happy you're not injured or anything like that.
ReplyDeleteThat's some serious damage on your car! I'm sorry to hear this. You should def get yourself checked.
ReplyDeletezomg indeed! i'm so glad you're ok...i've been through the hydroplane thing too, you're very blessed to be pretty uninjured. definitely go get checked out, please! and yea, all those people coming to help is so unnecessary haha. my hubby flipped over on his motorcycle and flew across the interstate into a ditch last year. even then he said all those people were just annoying!! hahaha keep us posted <3
ReplyDeleteomigosh that is so scary <3 i hope everything is going to be ok with your car...it's so weird my bf got into an accident two days ago...sighhh =\
ReplyDeleteomg im so sorry about your accident. i hope youre okay. i know you mentioned some parts of your body started to hurt, but i really hope you're just bruised and nothing too serious. i do hope they can fix your car
ReplyDeleteOMG Linda, I'm sorry to hear about your car. I'm glad you weren't hurt any worst that hitting your head on the steering wheel - but yah, I would totally get it checked up. I hope everything is okay
ReplyDeleteOMG! I saw this earlier, but I saw it on my phone, and my boyfriend was like, "That sucks!!!" :(
ReplyDeleteHope you feel better soon!
opps this is so serious.
ReplyDeletesorry to hear about this. I know I'm late to comment! I read your other post so I'm glad you went to see the doctor!! I hear that you don't feel the pain until later. maybe even MONTHS later. That's really good you're getting treatment. glad you're OKAY! <3
ReplyDeleteGet well soon :]<3
