And wearing my wrist brace more and more. I think that I'll need to take Digital Imaging 2, because I'm not exactly sure what I'm going to do-
Oh wait.
I'll be taking pictures since I'll be in photography. Art consumes my life, and I love it.

The Story:
I was about to open my Photoshop homework, a huge project that is due Tomorrow, Before class, and I reached for a wire or something. My drive was plugged into my USB Hub, (because I have a lot of things to plug in, I'm techy nerd), and I moved the hub and the light goes out, and I get an error on my screen. Now thinking that it just came lose or something I took it out and plugged it back in. Nothing. I plugged it into a different port. Nothing. I took it out, wiggled it around, because I've had problems with others where it just came loose. Nothing. Plugged it into mom's laptop, Nothing. Mine, Nothing. At this point, I am freaking the fuck Out. It's a Geek Squad brand USB, so I figure I'll take ot down to Best Buy, pay whatever I have to for them to do their thing and get my information. Money that I don't really have....

So I go down there, I don't have to wait long, and I hand over my thumb drive to the nice guy and explain what happens. "Oh," his tone of voice isn't very confidence building. He tests it two computer, 4 different ports. Nothing. "I think it might be dead. I hope you didn't have anything important on there."
"Just my life."
"Oooooo."

The female walks over and asks what;s happening and we explain. "My dad sent his drive out to have the data recovered and he spent crazy money. Six grand, and he didn't get everything back."

At this point, it's taking a shit ton of control to not break down crying in front of Geek Squad, and Best Buy. I've just been told that I lost my entire life, that everything on that little stick, is Gone. The nice guy then tells me that he's lost 3 thumb drives to one computer because it decided to shock them, and kill them, and he now owns 9 external hard drives. I then asked the man seriously if I should consider getting a hard drive. He told me, Yes.

"There's good news nad bad news. The bad news you know, your thumb drive is dead. The good news, you get a replacement for free."

So I am the owner of a brand new 8gig thumb drive, and a 250 gig external hard drive. As of right now, the thumb drive is for transporting long distances, and the Hard Drive gets EVERYTHING.

I'll be able to recover most of my fanfiction work because I've posted it on the internet somewhere. I'll be able to recover half of one of my novels, the undedited version of it. I'll be able to recover a Tiny Percentage of my pictures from the stuff that I've uploaded on deviantArt.

I don't know how I'm functioning right now, but I'm sure that alter tongiht or tomorrow it'll all kick in. Things don't really sink in for me unti la few days after it's happened, my brain doesn't want to except what's happened, works the same way when someone dies. Right now I just need to get my Photoshop homework back on track, that's what's keeping me from freaking out. Probably tomorrow, During Photoshop class I'll freak out, and most likely cry. Yay Me.

Karyn, Kerstin, and I were driving home from Delta, and it had been snowing. It was around 4:15 when we were on our way home. I'm driving int he left hand lane, lights on, 4 wheel drive on, and not going too fast. A Bay Metro bus decides to cut in front of us, with no lights on, no blinker, and then decides to slow down. I touch my brakes, I didn't slam, because I know that you're not supposed to slam your brakes with ABS (of which i thought I had.)

That was a mistake.

My car started to swerve, so I turn my wheels, taking my foot off of the brake. That didn't help and we kept going, so then I decided to apply all the brakes, still not slamming, and turning the wheel. We went across the other lane, turned around in a circle twice on the street, then went over a curb, over a reflector pole, and into a snow drift, where all I could see was white.

I should say right now, that we passed an intersection, and the street was fairly busy, and there was a large ditch. We hit no one, missed the car in the intersection, and if the car would have leaned or slid any further we would have started to roll into the ditch. Things could have been so much worse.

Now for me, all I saw was every single thing and person that I could have hit. Time seemed to speed up and I was asking any God that would listen to me. My exact thoughts were, 'lease, anyone, please.' I've been told that I kept saying Oh, god, oh god oh god, over and over again.

This fantastic man must have saw us from the gas station that we passed and he drove over in his truck and pulled us out of the snow, for the passenger side of the car was well and truly buried in the snow. I can not thank him enough. But it wasn't until after he had drive away that I saw that one of my tires was flat. I have a spare tire, but I didn't have anything int he back that would help me, no jack, nothing to loosen the lugnuts, nothing. So I called my grandpa, he was the first person I thought of since hes dealt with five kids driving.

Well it took him a while, due to other things happening, and we were sitting there for about an hour before he showed up. In that hour, no one stopped to check on us, with our hazards on, and no cops. Then I see the lights, and we're told that someone else is on their way to make sure that no one else swerves and hits us. Eventually my grandpa comes and we manage to get the car into the gas station parking lot. The tire has a large leak in it, and at the time we thought it was a hole and I would need to get a new tire.

I was later told by Karyn and Kerstin that the girls in the gas station Saw us slide out, but DIDN"T DO A DAMN THING. They could have at least called us for some help!! I'm pissed at them and that's probably the last time I go to that gas station. But I had to call a wrecker to come out, and so Karyn's grandpa came out to take the girls home. To make the rest short, the seal on my tire broke, and my grandpa was able to fix it so I don't need to get a new one.

I'm starting to feel sore, like my mom said I would, from being so tense when it all actually happened. I came home and broke down crying, 4 hours later, and I called some people, told some people what happened, and I've got a chill that just won't leave me.

The good: No one was hurt, my car is basically undamaged (as of now) except for the tire.
The bad: It could have been SOO MUCH WORSE, it's not even funny. We could have tipped, my airbag could have gone off, we could have hit someone. And now I'm driving my mom's car, and I'll be going extra slow, even though I was already going slow in the first place, and nothing was my fault.

I think I'm gonna go off and cry a little more now. And get rid of this chill.

i drew a sword the other day, and it really made me regret leaving my tablet at home. my mom said she would send it on tuesday but has forgotten. so hopefully she'll send it today, though I doubt I'll get it by the weekend. which bums me out because i have this really cool drawing (in sketch stage, i know it'll probably suck later, but i have hopes for it) and i would really like to try and get it colored in photoshop. and i need the pen tool to do that, cause there's no way i can color it with a little Finger Pad Mouse, nuh uh, my finger isn't working.

so i'll be expecting that soon ::sigh:: stupid me forgetting it at home. so yea, still looking for an idea for a series, annnnnnnnnd, came up with a couple ideas for a novel, well a novel and a series of books. that's about it for now.

and i am still working on the 100 picture challenge, but i left my list at my dorm, and i have ideas for all of them. i'll get them finished eventually, lol

last night i was called a sick and twisted soul because of my story (tee hee hee) and that my story was full of some f-ed up shit. ah it felt good. i was asked if i had ever read anything like what i was writing and i said no, it all came to me in a dream. but see this dream was only of one scene, one short little two minute scent that actually never happened fully in the story itself. so how's that for writing a novel.

well here's to getting it done, editing it and maybe just maybe getting it published, and here's to next years NaNoWriMo!
