    Ye we're thinking the damages are like $700-$800 for the other person's car and $500 for our car. OI vey these machines are expensive. I think she's also mad because like we just got it out of the repair shop for several other things recently so she's mad we'll be down a vehicle again. Or something. I don't know. She's just angry there's no telling. She yelled at me all day yesterday and the fact that my test grade today was a 71 made her even angrier so that's fun.

    Let's face it, your mom's default emotion is "mindlessly furious" all the time.

    Ugh, that's awful. But I agree with the others that anger and blaming is just making things worse, not better. You'd think that would be easy for people to understand.. DX

    Yeah my parents tend to go "blame first and never figure out the truth". Dad sometimes can be reasonable but Mom rarely is. It's just always your fault even if it really isn't.

Heck if anything it just makes your anxiety rise even higher while your stress is raised higher than it should be.
    Yeah my parents like to backseat drive and my dad decided to take today to lecture me about how I drive too fast all the time (I drive the speed limit unless I'm on the highway) and how that's probably the cause since if you're driving slow you can see if you're about to hit a car. I called his BS saying I had done this several times before hand and that I was driving slow and that it did look to me like I had cleared it. But he said I was lying because of course he does. It doesn't help this is my second wreck either and he's still convinced last time was due to me texting even though my phone was in my purse the whole time but whatever.

    I saw Inside Out for the first time flying home from Spain and had the same thought.

Me, knowing nothing of how insurance works since it's never been explained to me, didn't realize what mom was suggesting was NOT filing a claim. And even if I did, by the time I got our insurance agent's number, the other person had already called their insurance and was on the phone was our insurance, so I don't know if I could have stopped her. Either way, mom is very mad. She's been kinda mad the past few days because of things like me texting my friends good night or because I said my most recent test was harder than the last one, but not this mad in a while.

    And to think just a few hours I was counting my lucky stars she hadn't been mad in a while.

    I can't blame you for being anxious when driving, I think that's pretty normal, especially when you have additional people stressing you out. :( How long have you been driving for @Noblejanobii? I know it took me a good many years before I felt fully relaxed when driving. And I still hate going to certain places or driving on certain roads. xD Shopping centre carparks are definitely one of those places. I always park as far away from everyone as possible even if it means walking a fair way haha. And I still refuse to drive near the city. XD

    I’ll have had my full license for four years this coming August, but counting the learner’s permit it’s about six. But since I don’t have a car on campus i don’t usually drive during the school year all the much. This isn’t the first accident I’ve been involved in. I believe it’s my third or fourth since I got my learner’s permit six years ago (not all of which were my fault). People are just very bad drivers around here which makes it very stress inducing. The amount of times I’ve been nearly T-boned because someone didn’t use their blinker, ran a red, or did use their blinker but then decided to go straight instead is ridiculous.

    Yeah, that's not that long especially if you don't drive much during school. It sounds really scary to be driving near where you are if people are that horrible at it. x_x I'm sure you'll get more confident once you drive more often though. :) Hopefully your parents will forget about it and stop bugging you soon!

    Yeah accidents are very frequent around here unfortunately and since I'm not an excellent driver myself I always get worried that I'll merge into someone or something because it's nearly happened in the past. But hopefully the anxiety will wear off soon. I'm going to be driving the rest of the summer and don't need to be anxious while doing it.

    Welp. It's official. Sally is getting her friends to harass me. I got an angry review (on fanfiction.net, which I still need to delete my stories from) on my MLP story whining about how I "blocked their friend." The account wasn't brand new, which was a surprise. The only person I can think of that I blocked (that would actually bother to get mad about it) is Sally. So this must be one of her followers. I thought I was free but no.
