Today is July 5, 2007. My friends and i decided last night that we would go to Eliche Gardens (A Theme Park here where i live) and spend the day together. Several of my friends are leaving for college and another lives very far away. WE had a great time, riding the rollercoasters, and all the games, and just plan being silly. When we were coming home, tragedy struck our group. My friend Kate backed out and hit another car! It was an accident, but by know mistake was Kate's fault and she knew. A few screams from the victums and an exchange of information took place before we were back in the chair. I was terrifed. (This was my first accident). I Couldnt imagine Kate's worries. We continued to reasure her that everything would be alright. We were lucky that the damage was extreme. A pretty good dent in the drivers door, but nothing extreme and no injuries to any passengers in both cars. Kate has worked out everything with the driver of the other car and luckily, they are extremely caring and considerate so only a small fee for the damages is being paid.

Today was an extremely eventfull day. But one i will have with me always as a memory and a warning in my own future driving.
