I'm writing this so I can tell people all about my recent life without having to do it all individually, as doing that would be tedious. Especially the story I have to tell today. Recently I've been so bored with the odd events of my life that I can only bear to tell them in completeness once or twice before it becomes all too monotonous to say.

So, uh. I got my license. Until I turn eighteen, I'm not allowed to drive anyone under the age of twenty around, and those who are 20 or older still need to have a license. Good thing I turn eighteen soon.

I am to meet ~Magic-Dragon-Paul, ~Got-My-Wings, and ~pirate-kittie somewhere soonish. I shall be meeting ~pirate-kittie for the first time, and it shall be fun.

I applied for Petsmart. They only accept people eighteen and over. Hence how ~Kaosbarn ended up getting a job there. What's best is that I only found out I couldn't work there after (s)he applied, and our intent was to work together. It's okay, (s)he will work there, do super awesome, somehow become a seniority, and will then be my boss. ...I hope not, that sounds terrifying. Well, I suppose this summer will be my time to finish arts and such before classes start.

I can't remember what I've said and what I haven't in past journal shits. Uh. Working on art. Some should be up this month or the next. Ish. Most never gonna go up here. Elaborated on this already - moving on.

Uh. Well. I suppose I'll move on the the events of today.

At 9:58 A.M., ~Kaosbarn called from hiser college, waking me up, just to talk. Said being had a counseling appointment at three and was going to be bored until then. We talked a bit. PetSmart called my house after we hung up. They asked for herim, I directed them to cell phone number. Evidently (s)he had gotten to the drug testing stage of the application, which one has 24 hours to do from the time they're requested. So I had to go borrow hiser Uncle's car (which I'd never done and I don't know him too well) since my mom had just taken the car I usually drive, and the other two at my house are manuals which I haven't learned how to drive yet, to drive to heris college so (s)he could drive to PetSmart to sign forms and go to drug testing place. Well, at the stop light after the free way exit, as I let go of the brake of the car because the light turned green, there was an odd clunk noise. Then, as I was slowing down on the hill, I had to push the brake in ALL THE WAY just to very, very slowly work my way to a stop. Oh yay. Furthermore, I smell something like burning rubber. So, I'm not pleased. Luckily I'm very close to the college, so just before I'm going to pull into the place I typically pick her up (well, she drives home since that's the legal thing to do) a car in front of me comes to a stop. By this point, even though I'm way far behind them, the brakes are working so poorly I have to go into the lane to the left (luckily there was no oncoming traffic) to avoid tapping their bumper, not so gently.

Well, best friend drove it (fucking carefully) to a parking lot where we then got AAA to tow it to a workshop place, while we then went to go to her drug testing. Fun times.

Oddly, I wasn't that worried as the brakes failed. I wasn't happy, no...but it wasn't scary either. I knew I'd be fine. I didn't use the emergency brake at all because the brakes worked just enough for me to not need to. Plus, I'd never driven this car, and I feel stupid saying it, but I don't know how to work its emergency brake exactly. I have an idea, but it's not like my car I drive.

So, uh. Now I'm home. So much for spending all day working on novel and arts and such. :XD: I guess I'll just settle for the rest of it, then!

It was really kinda funny at the time. :XD:

Aside from the fact I felt so shitty about it not being my car and all. I looked at him directly in the eyes as I was leaving and said "I will be very careful."

It wasn't my fault, but I still feel bad.

:iconunclegran-gran:
Yeah. I couldn't have possibly known, though. And it really wasn't my fault. At least I found out and was fine instead of someone else finding out and really getting hurt.

It generally sucks to find anything out on the freeway.
