The Scariest Day of My Life

RIP Betsy DeArmon. Died on the 18th of May 2011









This is the damage to my car, I'm so lucky I didn't have anyone in my passenger seat. I have a broken windshield, and a broken tail light.

It was a day just like any other. I didn't have a fourth period and so after Seminary I was on my way home, I took Sidney home and I was just driving home. In Springville there aren't any stop signs on Center street except for a few places so I drove straight through like I usually do because there weren't any stop signs around. I was listening to All American Rejects and I saw something red from the corner of my eye and then I blacked out and I had gotten hit!





I got in a car accident and what did I first think of? Well after I stopped in someones yard I saw my phone made sure it was still working I looked down at the passenger seat floor and I hoped my sunglasses weren't broken. (What? I bought them at walmart and they're my favorite)





After a second of irrational thinking I got out of my car, don't know why, and freaked out, i could NOT stop crying. I just kept crying and crying and crying and my chest hurt really bad because of my seat belt. I kept sitting in my car and getting up and everything just kept going in circles and I kept hoping that it was a dream and I really didn't kill my car.(well an old lady did)





Funny story about this the police and firemen and paramedics were there and were asking me if I'd called anyone and I said I hadn't so they told me I should. I told them my parents were both at work and that my mom was in Provo and my dad was in Ogden so they told me i should probably call my mom, so I did and it kept ringing and ringing and ringing and it finally went to voicemail. Yeah I got in a car accident and my mom didn't answer her phone!! It was funny afterwords but at the time I was freaking out. So I called my dad and he told me he would call my mom and have her come and get me.





I got some injuries from my car accident, I have brusies where the seatbelt was. I have one on each hip, one on each of my knees, and one on my NON broken foot. So that was the scariest day of my life, right now we're in the process of getting all the insurance worked out and trying to get me a new car!
