CAN THIS DAY GET ANY WORSE POSSIBLY?
I'm 20 years old. I live in an area where traffic is never that bad. Where the drugs aren't that bad.
I just graduated high school a few years ago. When I graduated, there were around 800 people in my senior class. Of those 800, I saw 8 different people killed my senior year. I saw 5 killed last year. I saw 2 killed this year. I am sitting here bluelighting and can't believe what i am hearing on my TV.... i just lost 6 more of them.
before my senior year, there had not been a student death in my area in over 10 years.
Of all the people i saw go, every one BUT ONE was due to a car accident.... by either a drunk driver or a person under the influence of drugs.
I would be sitting here all day telling you the stories, but the screen is going blurry and my keyboard is soaked in tears.
I watched 3 of my very best friends burn to death in a Blazer on graduation day a few months ago. They were hit by a guy who went to 11 different bars in one night and did 2 lines of crank. The front page of the newpaper made me shiver: 3 Young Men Killed In Fiery Crash: Police Question Driver Who Hit Them, Used Alcohol and Amphetamines. I was there the night it happened, coming home from the club. I didn't see the accident, but I saw the Blazer on fire. the police weren't there yet. It was by the mall and walmart.... We all ran to walmart and called the police. i came back and heard them screaming inside the blazer. only one of them got out alive, he tried to save the rest but couldn't get the doors open when the blazer burst into flames. when i saw who it was, my heart sank.
Another car pulled up, 2 more of my best friends. They said the truck had been traveling towards them in THEIR LANE, they swerved out of the way, and it hit the blazer in back of them. the blazer with my friends in it.
There is a big memorial we all built, right on the side of the road, by the mall, where people bring flowers and pictures and memories every single day. and there's a big sign that says "My friends were killed by a drunk driver."
Today, I lost more people.... a guy who's locker was next to mine for 4 years in high school, who was in my homeroom... a girl i worked with telemarketing... a guy that got me drunk for the first time.... a guy that is my boyfr-- oops, ex-boyfriends very good friend, and his girlfriend. The driver who hit them was on crack. The passengers were all drunk.
WE ALL DO DRUGS ON HERE>>>> i hate drinking, personally... an occasional wine cooler, but that's it. i used to drink a lot, hell-- my town is full of bars and lushes... but when i lost all my friends like that... i swore that i would NEVER EVER EVER under any condition let myself get fucked up and drive. For the safety of myself, my friends, and the other people on the road.
Another car was involved in the accident. a four-year old year and her grandmother. the grandmother died. how does a four-year old watch her grandmother die??
I admit, i've driven on acid before, and K. And I know some of you have done it too.....
PLEASE DON'T GET FUCKED UP AND DRIVE...
I miss my friends. They were a few hugs too short.
