thursday december 7

today i drove across the city to school at 7:00 am amidst some sort of apocalyptic nuclear winter not unlike the world in that one sigur ros video (except mine had more snow, fewer children in gas masks, and was scored by justin timberlake). as such, the crosstown trip to hand in a couple essays was quite harrowing. at one point on my drive home, my wheels locked up while i was in the midst of a bend in the road. i frantically pumped the brake to no avail, and drifted into the path of an oncoming car in the opposite lane. luckily, the driver of the car noticed my struggles in time and swerved onto the shoulder to avoid a head-on collision! sweet moves, random woman!!

WOW. That sounds quite scary! The most terrifying driving the snow incident that happened to me was probably making a left turn onto hyde park and going wayyyyy too fast. this was like the first turn of the day for me. came very close to going over the curb / into oncoming traffic.
