So, I got ready to goto school, jumped in my car and sped off. When I got past the schoolzone on Abrams and Whitehurst the car refuses the accelerate. Started up the car again and within 3 seconds after I hit the accelerator to accelerate a bit, the car dies again. Tried it one last time before thinking – “Oh no! I have to get to school.” I call up my mom and she takes me to school. We leave the car there for the time being with yield lights flashing. Upon arriving at school on my way to my first class, I find out that my instructor for my afternoon class is ill and that his class was canceled. Yay! Time to go home. This is the first time that I rode DART all the way somewhere without the use of a car. Learned that I had to take the 553 from Cedar Valley College to Ledbetter and then take the DART rail going from the red line to the blue line and finally switching onto the 582 to get me to Abrams. I really enjoyed my ride but I have learned that I need to plan DART trips better. It took me 2.5 hours to get from Lancaster to back home. My car (the 1986 Toyota Camry) turned out to have a dead battery and it turned out mom’s car’s battery was nearly depleted as well so it couldn’t jump my car. Well, everything turned out well and I’m now sitting at home after a yummy meal of hot dog and pizza from Sam’s (takes mom!) getting ready to begin homework.
Hallelujah! Thank you Jesus for an interesting day.
