it's not been a good recess break...

i've not been studying and catching up on my tutorials and studies as i should have.

i fell sick since monday, with very bad flu, and cough too. it got so bad i even had a headache.

nothing much accomplished for projects.

i got into a car accident.

ahh...not a very fruitful recess break indeed. well, the greatest lesson i've learnt over the week was what to do during a car accident.

When u get into a car accident(hope you're not the one at fault), u need to get the other person's particulars like NRIC, contact number, car insurance agent, and take photos of the damage if possible. Determine what are the damages due to the accident, then ask the other party to bring the vehicle to your own workshop to gauge the cost of repairs. If the cost of repairs is too much and you cannot afford, then u can suggest to report to police then make claim with insurance company. of course, this is for accidents that no one got injured la. if got anyone got hurt, then it'll be more complicated, and i also duno how. haha.

anyway, i got into a minor car accident. damage to my car still ok la, but the other party's door got dented and scratched, and it's a pretty new car, as in just bought not too long ago. and cos i was in the fault, so i'll have to pay for the damages. i guess most probably they will send it back to the nissan workshop and replace the doors and everything, and so i think it'll chalk up a pretty huge bill. oh well.. and cos i've never been in a car accident before, i didn't know what to do. i didn't get the other person's particulars and contact number(i did want to get the contact, but i forgot...), which pastor says is something i have to do, if not i'm at a big big big disadvantage. i'm basically at their mercy. i didn't take photo of the damages too, and i didn't even remember the car plate number. they did get my particulars and contact though. thatz y i'm at a disadvantage. the only best thing that can happen is that they lose the piece of paper they wrote my details on, and then they cannot find me. and since i dun have their contact, i cannot call them, and that means i dun need to pay for any of their damages. hahaha... but that happening is...pretty impossible.

i seriously think i'm not suited to be in the driver seat. it seems i'm always getting into small small accidents. Praise the Lord that it didn't get more, cos sometimes when i'm driving, especially on longer trips(like to school, west side area...i live in the east.), i tend to get sleepy and such. driving is really boring, and i'm such a sleeper anywhere i go. i think even when i can afford a car in the future, i may not want to get one also... it's really dangerous falling asleep while driving.. and i think i do fall asleep very easily... so i shall not be a hazard to the road.
