Today’s topic: Trauma (I have a professor who pronounces it trawma)

It’s been around two years since I started driving, and I never had an accident.. until a few weeks ago. Two accidents in ten days.

Accident 1:

Trying to find a parking spot before class. A girl reversed on me. I talked to her and told her to call her family and suggested that she take her stuff out of the trunk which is now gone. Keep in mind that I drive an SUV, and her car was a Corolla.

After I called Dad (to ask where daftar elsayara is), N. (for comfort), and 777 (to come document the accident), I went to talk to the girl again, and she yelled at me: ENTAY MA ETSHOUFEEN?! SHLOUN MESRE3A CHETHI W DA3MATNI?! MA TESTI7EEN 3ALA WAYHECH? 7ADICH GHAL6ANA MN REELECH LA RASECH! etc. I ignored her, walked away, and locked myself in my car. A while later, her sister knocked on my window. I lowered it.

Her: Entay eli sayga?

Me: Yeah..

Her: ENTAY ELGHAL6ANA MU EKHTI! MA TESTI7EEN 3ALA WAYHECH RAY7A EMSARKHA 3ALAIHA WEHYA MEKHTAR3A MN EL7ADETH?! A3ALMECH 3END ELSHER6A! etc.

Me: ;O (closed window)

Went to the makhfar, and they determined that she was mistaken.


Accident 2

The day after I got my car back resulting from damages done by Accident 1, I left the Shwaikh campus and got stuck at a roundabout. I’m on the rightmost lane, and right next to me is a big truck carrying a container from the port. The cars weren’t moving, but as soon as the car in front of the truck moved, the driver decided to turn. Where would I go? Can’t go over the pavement since my tires were already too close. I beeped my horn, but he kept turning and smashed my side view mirror. I beeped my horn and signaled to him in the mirror not to keep going. He did anyway, and smashed my car. I thought I was going to die. He left.

The hysteria checked in seconds later. A guy came 30 minutes later to tell me that he stopped the truck and got the information. The makhfar were idiots. They didn’t even attempt finding the guy.

    Salamat 3omri :* I really don’t like the system here.. but what I do like is how random people are very helpful sometimes, it really gives you hope that there are some good people out there

    Yeah, true. I gave up hope in those 30 minutes before the guy came.

    so2aaaaaal!!! why did you ignore that girl?!!!! lo ana menech chan shota!! box ay shay!! omg!!!!!!! wai ana 3a9abt:O!

  4. Accident # 1 : They’re IDIOTS
    Accident # 2 : Happens all the time

    overall.. the rate of your accidents doesn’t determine how good of a driver u r .. it is the rate of close calls you escape from that determines.. I haven’t had an accident for a long time driving but then.. about a month or two ago, I hit a walking lady “I actually posted about it” .. So yea, it is bound to happen sooner or later anyhow .. everybody has got to hit someone .. so keep ur eyes open 🙂

    P.S. if I were you, I wouldn’t have played the decent gal .. I would have got out of the car & gave’em a piece of my mind ..the @(&@#^&*^@*

  5. salamat..wallah ma testahlain

  6. kha6ach esow… is that idiotic girl and her sister for real?? mama egray elm3wthat gabil la t6l3een mn elbait w samay bra7maan.. alah y7afthich :*

  7. Yea a few months back my sis was hit by a bus who sped off, they kept saying they cant find the bus o ma3rfeen shino for two weeks, in the end my uncle ra7 7ag the bus company and they said ina the bus driver panicked bes once he got back to his senses he went reported the accident later on that day. So ‘3air ina lafait min ma5far lay ma5far cuz they were confused about who’s jurisdiction it fell under and cause well ma7ad idawim, they cant find a bus which came and confessed to them. I had to call and arrange with a worker in KGL to meet him up 3ind ‘3orfat ilmu7aqiq. La o l7mar ilmu7aqiq was glad to take full credit for finding him. I mean its hard not to find him when im walking him straight into ur office -_-

  8. If I had a world of my own, everything would be nonsense. everyone would be mummery flummery, everything would have meaningless mean, no one will crash, everything will Fiddle the Faddle and the fala-la frog.

    Airbag
    In the next world war
    in a jack knifed juggernaut,
    I am born again.
    In the neon sign,
    scrolling up and down,
    I am born again.
    In an interstellar burst,
    I am back to save the universe.
    In a deep deep sleep,
    of the innocent,
    I am born again.
    In a fast German car,
    I’m amazed that I survived,
    an airbag saved my life.
    In an interstellar burst,
    I am back to save the universe.

    The first two girls were plain moron-material. I’d say morons, but I don’t have enough evidence to support that claim. ;p

    At the end of the day, you’re okay sweetie. That’s what should really matter. 🙂

  15. 1480 was a leap year

    “Trying to find a parking spot before class. A girl reversed on me.”

    Hold up, explain that again, I’m trying to form a mental picture.

    So you were hovering around the parking lot ie in motion then faj2a a Corralla backed up on you?

    “7ADICH GHAL6ANA MN REELECH LA RASECH!”

    lmao now that’s old school.

    “got stuck at a roundabout. I’m on the rightmost lane, and right next to me is a big truck carrying a container from the port. The cars weren’t moving, but as soon as the car in front of the truck moved, the driver decided to turn. Where would I go? Can’t go over the pavement since my tires were already too close.”

    If you were on the rightmost lane in a roundabout, then how was there a truck to your right? You also mentioned that you were close to the pavement so I assume you weren’t stuck near one of the entrances to the roundabout…

    “A guy came 30 minutes later to tell me that he stopped the truck and got the information. The makhfar were idiots. They didn’t even attempt finding the guy.”

    So the police arrived at the scene, didn’t find any information about the driver (who I assume fled the scene based on your description of the events) but then some random dude found and interrogated him 30 minutes later and gave you the info? You’d be in the police station/home/some other place by then no?

  22. ewrfewg
    Apparently, you can’t read and understand what you read simultaneously. That multitasking combination just doesn’t work for you, does it?

    Yes, I was driving slowly around in the parking lot, and she backed up on me. Pretty clear from my explanation, otherwise you wouldn’t have got it.

    I didn’t say the truck was on my right. I said it was right next to me. It was on my left; which makes sense since I explained that I thought I was going to die. The driver’s seat and steering wheel are on the left in Kuwait. Is that news to you?

    I never said the police arrived at the scene. They didn’t. 30 minutes later, I was still in the same spot, frozen hysterically. So, the “random dude” chased the guy, made him stop, and asked for his name and the company he works for. The license plate is on the car, no need to ask for the number. If that’s an interrogation to you..

    Your assumption skills need to be thrown out the window and get replaced by common sense, logic, and reading skills. A little bit of guts won’t hurt either. No need to comment with your identity masked to this extent. But the again, with your tendencies to assume, you probably think I’m a serial killer.

  23. 23 ewrfewg

    wtf?

    you on your period?

    what did I say that was so offensive?

  24. ewrfewg
    I’m not offended at all:)
