The Big Accident

One nice day in the summer my friends, Yvette, Katie, and Kristi, and I were heading up to the Lil Jon & The Eastside Boys concert. Everything was going fine. We made it up there with no problem, found the Excel Center. When we were parked we decided that we wanted to park closer, so I backed out and all of a sudden we heard a bang and my car wouldn't start. We started freaking out, because we stuck up against this car I hit. We then asked some guys to help push it into a parking spot, when it was in neutral. Fifteen minutes later the guy came and saw his car and I went over and admitted to him what happened. So he called the cops and they came over and figured everything out. That night my parents found out what had happened and had to pay for it. After that accident happened I wasn't able to buy a sound system for my car, I had to work more, and I couldn't see my friends as much. These are big changes in my life that I didn't think would happen at that time.

I was not able to buy a sound system for my car, because I had to pay my parents back. I had over a thousand dollars in my account saved for a system and with it I was planning on buying an amp, subwoofers, and maybe speakers and a deck. Even though my car came with a subwoofer, Infinity speakers, and a cad player, I still wanted something bigger and better. I was sad that I had to give my money to my parents to help pay for the damage, because I didn't expect to save up that much money to pay for an accident. I am now going to have to wait to save that money up again and buy them later.

Now that I had to pay back my parents and still pay for my car I had to start working more. I already had an extremely busy schedule with dance, Youth in Government, and I was just going to start gymnastics. Having dance three days a week, meetings for Youth in Government every once in a while, and gymnastics made four days I couldn't work in a week. Then having to put enough work in my rigorous schedule to pay back my parents would leave just enough time to do my homework. I feel at my age that I shouldn't be doing as many stressful things as I am. It sure wasn't something I expected to be doing.

Now since I'm working all the time and doing all my other curricular activities I have almost no time for my friends except on the weekends. I spent almost everyday hanging out with my friends having a good time. Now that I can't
