2.14.10 Day 19

two years ago exactly i was on a plane enroute to the philippines... what i would do to be in that position again right now :(
another note would be 8 days before that, i was in a crazy car accident. 99% of the days since then i havent given it much thought, but since today is the 14th, and the best valentines day ever was probably spent on an airplane. the days leading up to that were... interesting to say the least.
nothing really happened, it was all just a blur... i mean the car accident sucked. sitting in the passenger seat and seeing the car crash into the tree in slow motion. everything gained a greenish tint. next thing i knew i smelt burnt plastic and my nose was bleeding from the air bag. i look out behind me and my best friend from elementary school was keeled over in pain. the kid driving got out and was pissed that he had crashed his car, seemingly not concerned with the well being of his friends. i pull my friend out of the car set him by the tree, cars pass by and stop asking if we need help. the driver was simply told them no its ok. but the next car that passed i asked them to call 911. and soon they police and ambulance were on their way. my friend was rushed to the hospital while me and the driver were taken in a separate ambulance. me and the driver were fine. my friend wasnt so lucky. emergency surgery and a week and a half of rest and he was fine.

thats the important parts of the story. but valentines day will always have that memory. even though the crash didnt happen on that day, it was close enough. and while there may be more fitting stories to remember about valentiens days. its too soon.
