   Driving Problems
Well, tomorrow's the day I finally make my trip back home. So far it looks like the weather will be okay. As I promised earlier, I'll tell you guys why I get so freaked out about driving in the rain.

About two and a half years ago, my dad was driving me to summer camp. It was an away camp about an hour's drive away, so it involved going on the interstate highway. We had just crossed the state line between Mississippi and Louisiana when it started to rain. My dad, of course slowed down due to the conditions. The next minute went by so fast, it didn't feel real. First the car hydroplaned (that is when you go so fast through water on the road, you sort of "float" across it). Then it spun out of control, bumping up against a cement wall on the edge of a small overpass. Finally we ran off the road in a ditch. I guess after typing it out, it doesn't seem so bad, but being in that car, knowing it could have just as easily gone much worse, gives me such an uneasy feeling.
