a rough week for many

If I really knew how scary it could be to have been hit by a car...

I still would have been hit by a car.

The collision with me and a white car on Halloween was kind of unavoidable since things can happen no matter how careful you are. But I'm okay, seriously! I only have some bruises on my arm and leg. I was too worried about if I still had all my body parts intact to worry about getting that bastard's information down, even though he did step out to see if I was alright. I feel like I can laugh about the incident since I'm lucky nothing worse happened.

And because I lost power on Halloween no thanks to the monstrosity that is hurricane Sandy, my belated Halloween illustration:

You should be able to view the fullsize on clicking the image, so do that and check out them details.

Right now, my biggest worry is how I'll return to school next week. Power should be restored to lower Manhattan on Saturday (and to SVA's campus) but there is no way I can get out of Brooklyn easily for a very long time. I could take the shuttle...but wait for hours for the bus and to fight with the many others also needing to get to the city? All of options are not very good.):
In all honesty, I can be very prideful about my home that is New York City and to see it so paralyzed and helpless after a storm really does make me anxious and worried.

I hope those who've lost everything can get back on their feet soon, even when the events were so tragic and happened so fast. <3
