Lookie lookie...it went BOOM!

I hate trucks. I HATE THEM with a passion. So my mom and I decided we were going to go to COSTCO to get some groceries because really...all we wanted to do was just drive ;p. So anyway, once we get to the car, my mom goes "Should we take the small car instead?" and I...being the clausterphobic one of the two of us, made a collective decision in the name of my comfort to continue with the SUV.(why is this important you ask? well..shut up and read on :) It's important)
So anyway, we were barely 5 minutes into our journey and my mom and I were getting into Pat Benatar's Love is a Battlefield when all of a sudden..........BOOOM!!!! My head gets thrust to my left and my glasses fly off to the backseat. I soon realized that the whole glass window in the back was gone and the boot was somewhat mashed in front of this HUGE white GOODWILL truck. I starting cursing profusely...because..well..what else are you going to do in moments of crisis? Is it ironic that I was reading the portion about reporting accidents in my DPS driving school manual while the accident happened? hm...
BUT essentially...if my mom and I had taken the small car, we'd prolly have been thrashed badly. No joke. See? I told you that was important. Fate totally intervened today :D
What was annoying though, was my dad for insisting that I head over to driver's school 2 hours after the accident. (i'm guessing he kinda got worried that I may crash his other car so safety prolly is his primary concern ;p)
So yea, nobody got hurt-ish (my neck hurts and I can't really turn it AND I've got this bump on my head) but we're all fine...except for the fact that we're not exactly too happy with them trucks roaming the roads driving at these intersections. HMPH!
