Drivers Education

I started drivers ed on November 3rd. Which means I have to be up at 5:00am or before which is what I do, so for one of our assignments we had to watch an intersection for an hour and check mark everything I saw. I didn't want to do it by myself because how would it look for one girl to sit on a corner with a lawn chair hot chocolate and tons of jackets and a notebook on her lap? So three other girls in my class and then our friend who's taking drivers ed in the summer came with us for moral support, I say that's a friend because it was FREEZING. We all froze our butts off but while we were sitting there checking everyone who was doing something wrong. But one of the girls I was with her brother and his friend came to the intersection we were sitting at and his friend shouted "I'm not wearing my seatbelt! I don't have my signal on, AND I'm talking on my cellphone!" so we got to check three more things because of him. He was nice, I didn't realize who it was until we got back to my friends house who he was. He went to prom with my sister! So later that day I was texting my sister and she asked if he remembered who I was and I said "Tedi I was in 5th grade I dont think he'd remember me". So back to the intersection we were sitting there and we were all cold and then two really cute guys stopped at the light and they waved at me! So all us girls waved at them, which was a distraction yes but they didn't crash. So after we were done for an hour we went back to my friend Alex's house and we added up all the stuff we had, we found 78 people on their cell phones or they were texting. So don't talk on your cell phone in your car unless you have like a blue tooth or hands free and always ALWAYS wear your seatbelt. Because you dont know who could be watching and most accidents happen within 25 miles of your home so be sure to wear your seat belt
