School mayhem and insane driving

Okay, so I’m supposed to have time off school at the moment, but instead of enjoying myself, I’ve been to town almost everyday and it’s always somehow connected to school. Mostly math. I hate that subject. I just don’t have the brains for it and it’s killing me. Today I went and took this huge math test again. I hope I passed, I studied and memorized exactly 35 points worth of exercises. You only need 30, but I learned one more, just on case you know. I don’t know when I’ll get the results, but I’d really like to know weather or not I passed it.

 

Well, after my bloody battle with math, I went to pick up my little sister. Okay, she’s not that little, she’s 17. Anyway, I had to drive across town to get her, because she walks too slowly. Then she tells me to wait for her friend and presses me into driving her home. That meant a de-tour, but I’m not really upset about that. It’s what follows that really ticks me off. I’ve noticed before that the people here can’t drive or choose not to drive according to the laws. After waiting for the bus to pass by, which took a while since the bus driver was on the phone while driving a bus loaded with kids, I turned a blind corner and suddenly there’s a car. With no light I might add. In Estonia it’s mandatory to turn your light on even during day time. So, I did see him, but it brought up some ugly memories.

 

Last August I was cycling home in the dark. I’d been to a party and was on my way home, when I went into a curve, blind by the way, and suddenly there was a black BMW with no head lights driving straight towards me. I barely got out of the way. I mean it’s one thing saving the bulbs when it’s light out, but in pitch black (Who played in that movie?)?!?! I think it might not be such a good idea. After almost hitting me they hit the brakes and turned on the lights. Like it would have helped if they’d hit me. People here love to break the rules. It’s like something you have to do if you live here. I don’t get it. I love rules, they are there for a reason (I guess I’m never going to become an anarchist).

 

Okay, I’ve bitched enough for today. Some interesting news: I’m thinking about starting vlogging on YouTube. So, to make the final decision, I’m going to ask you guys. I’ll lose the what should I review poll and put that question up there. Anyway, see you soon and one short message to you all: we all matter and it’s not important how we look. (Trying so hard to be deep, but I just have to add these remarks… Oh, well…) x)©
