ya know... the damage was really not that bad from the accident... it was from the freaking wrecker. The idiot carried the car by the front under the radiator. After that, the hood wouldn't close, radiator and condenser (AC) coil was bent. All this stuff happened during the "GS curse days". Hopefully it never returns.

I just drove the car today. It's not done yet. It needs to be repainted. It drives alright. I know it wont ever be the same. but oh well..

yup!!! just think of how I felt when I got into the accident! I couldn't believe it! I just sat in my seat....shocked... I tried to scream or cry... but nothing would come out. I was there just dazed. Was a good thing that that median was there though. If not, i would have killed 3 people in three different cars.

I swear, I really just cant deal with memories of that day till now. I really can't remember exactly what happened. but I know I blacked out. Dont know why.. but I did. I just remember merging into traffic, coast was clear and then next thing I know, I'm stopped at the shoulder of the street and my car wouldn't move.

I think I might just need to go into therapy for that someday.
