It all happened in a second, and I still feel a bit confused...
Nothing serious - just some scratches on the bumper - and luckily I was driving the oldest of my parents' cars, or it would have been a real tragedy, however the idea of bumping into another car freaks me out!

(feel so proud! XD)

Then had to do allergy tests (and watching the nurse making 36 small, but nonetheless painful, holes on what were supposed to be my forearms but looked ( Read more... )

Alright, this certainly qualifies as the worst Christmas of my entire life... And that's saying something, considering the tons of boring, depressing days spent with people with whom I don't have anything in common. It's not because of the presents, I really don't care, or because of the company per se, I won't die if I spend a single day with ( Read more... )
