Driving Grandmas and Babies*

I am a cautious driver and extra cautious when I am driving children or seniors. One time I traveled with my cousin around Calgary with my her toddler in my backseat. My cousin forgot to attach one of the straps of the car seat but didn't notice until she went to take out -- my driving was that smooth.

Today on my way home, my bus hit a car that ran a red light. The hit car had two babies in the back seat that were taken to hospital. Stupid enough to run a red light but when you are in the care of two infants?!?!? Dad and I checked the news, since nothing was mentioned we hoped that is good news. At the scene we were told they were just being taken as a precaution so I pray that they are alright. Life is big and scary enough but even more when you are helpless or can't understand what is going on. Poor babies.

*Alternate Title: The Butterfly Effect
Last Thursday I asked a question in class and my professor was totally rude to me. I woke up Friday with a cold and have been sick ever since. Today my sinuses started to hurt so I decided to skip my last class, the one with the rude professor. I was well enough to learn but not well enough to put up her nonsense. Since I skipped my class, I took an earlier bus which got in an accident. I wasn't supposed to be on that bus. I had to brace myself so I didn't hit the seat in front of me which hurt my back and neck. I went to the doctor; I don't have whiplash but may be sore for a couple days. My back hurts because I asked a question in class 5 days ago.
