i got my first ticket today. i feel like i have all the driving problems ever. i never hear about any of my friends denting the front of their cars or taking of mirrors or getting tickets...but maybe nobody talks about it?
haha whatever. ANYWAYS, here's how it went down.
i picked lauren up from her bf's apartment, and i'm rolling down Francis Rd. (direct reference for any of you from burlington), and theres some cops talking to the left of this intersection i was stopping at. so I CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP...but didn't stop for the required 3 seconds. didn't really think anything of it cause fuck, no one but old grannys stop for that long. for real.
so, i continue on my way, me and lauren are drinking our coffees, and like 20 seconds after i passed that stop sign, i see the cop behind me with his lights on. i was like ya right is he actually pulling me over right now? and yes, he in fact was.
definelty never gotten pulled over in my 3 years of driving. and for something as petty as that...not stopping for the full amount of time at the stop sign. like fuck, come on. needless to say i was not very impressed. and still am not. mom's gunna try and fight it for me. oh ya, AND it was $110. WTF speeding tickets aren't even that much money. seems a little bit excessive to me...
and yep that was about the highlight of my day ahah.
ps the weather is insane. the rain stopped and started about 10 times this morning, literally. then clearled up and it was beautiful. now its hailing. insane. i might stay at my parent's until tomorrow and then take the train back in the morning. we'll see.
anyways i'm going to sulk about not having money to pay this ticket and decide if i want to be back in the city tonight or not.
xoxo
