So in my rush to make an update, I completely forgot that this week started out a bust. On my way to work, I got into a car accident on the 710S heading towards Long Beach. I couldn't stop in time and ended up hitting the car in front of me. I reported the accident to the insurance as soon as I got to work and ended up being 20 minutes late to work but my preceptor was cool about it. But yeah, this was my first accident on a freeway and thank goodness it occurred at a part of the 710 that has a shoulder. We were in the lane right next to the center divider and were able to pull over to the shoulder on the left. It was extremely difficult to merge back into the freeway after we had exchanged information. My hands were shakey the whole day at work. Spoke to the adjuster to record my statement and then went to Borders again after work to get a little studying done. I ended up purchasing this pink journal that's proved to be extremely useful! I'm using it to keep track of my spending. I've been trying to spend more wisely and less impulsively lol. Anyways, I hate how there's a lag in the posting of stuff on my statement for my Citicard so I'm just keeping track of my purchases in the journal. I had my dad take a look at my car when I got home and he said everything looked fine. The only thing new that I noticed was that my Honda emblem on the front of my car had fallen off and the hood of my car is little raised. But other than that, everything looked fine. I was mostly worried about damage to my engine but everything seems ok so far.
day 32: the morning after
Nothing exciting happened today. I tried to show up to work a little early to make up for going in late the day before. Went to Borders again after work. I got a call during work to go pick up the stuff I ordered from JCPenney (see post below) and that's what I did. I pretty much became a bum at home after that.
day 33: super productive morning
So I've been trying to get tested for the past 2 weeks but Planned Parenthood was being a dozo and denying all my appointments until I finally got one for this morning. I wanted to get tested before I started my HIV rotation just to make sure that I am negative and I realized that even at UCLA I never got tested. It was pretty cool 'cause I had this nice gentleman helping me today. I gave them a urine sample to test for chlamydia and gonorrhea and a blood sample for syphillis. The HIV test was actually just an instant test that kind of resembles a pregnancy test. So he gets this lancet-like thing to do a finger-prick and then uses the little pipet to get the blood and puts it into this little hole in the HIV test. I didn't get to see the results personally but I saw that there was a large area above the blood hole and one is for the control and one is for the test specimen. I thought it was pretty cool how fast the test could be done!
I then went to deposit money into my new account at Citibank 'cause I had to close my Chase account. I felt like such a nube 'cause I had no idea how to use their ATMs lol. I think I've been spoiled by Chase and their envelope-less deposits and their phone image deposits. So I went inside to make the deposit and also to change my pin.
I also went to go get the estimate done for my car. The guy printed me a copy of the estimate and it said that it would only cost me $165 to get my front bumper and emblem replaced! I was so freakin' amazed because I totally thought stuff like that would cost more. Just cause it wouldn't cost much to replace the bumper, it makes me want to just get it replaced. But at the same time that would mean that I would no longer be able to push shopping carts with my car lol.
Anyways, I did this all before 11am! I felt so freakin' productive!
I did make an online purchase on Sunday (just thought of it now). I've been looking for some skinny cargoes so when I saw them on 9to5chic's Anh, I had to get them! They are originally $78 but there was a coupon on 9to5chic that reduced the price by 50%. Shipping was a whopping $9.99 but it was SUPER speedy (I received the thing today!)!
I saw this Asos boyfriend belt on lovemaegan and I've been looking for one of these belts too so I made the purchase. The great thing about Asos is that it's free shipping with no minimum purchase! AND I found a coupon code thanks to the chloe conspiracy which gave me 10% off so it ended up being $25. I really can't wait to get this in the mail 'cause I've been wanting a new belt for a really long time but I went to Target recently to try to find something but all their belts were XL.
Had my regional meeting today in Long Beach and then we all went out to Yardhouse. I really wanted to go to Starbucks afterwards to get some work done but I felt so sluggish so I just came home right after. Now my eyes are like refusing to stay open lol. What is with this grandma status behavior?! Alright, time to say goodnight!
Hope everyone has a very Happy Chinese/Lunar New Year tomaloes!!
