After spending four years of my life here, I can officially say I wasn't meant to be here. I found it hard to communicate with others—not because of race, culture, or traditions, but because I couldn't express myself without sounding too academic, while others used vocabulary words I had never heard before. Realizing I needed to reach that level of speaking made me know it was going to be hard. Still, I managed to survive those four years, even though I didn't make any friends despite joining clubs. Ultimately, I'm glad I got to enjoy the experience

Today I was driving, and the traffic was really bad. I was in my lane when this big truck, which had literally been cutting everyone off, tried to merge into my lane. I wasn’t letting it in (I know that was kind of rude), but the truck kept pushing forward. I was only moving at about 1 mph with no acceleration, and by accident I bumped into another car.

I was shocked, and the truck honked at me. Then the other driver got out of their car. I was ready to pull over and exchange insurance information, but the person didn’t pull over. They just kept driving, so I thought maybe she wanted to meet somewhere after we exited. To explain the situation better, the traffic was so bad that people were literally driving the wrong way just to avoid getting onto the freeway. Because of the traffic, more cars were still trying to cut in front of me.

Eventually, I lost sight of her and couldn’t find where she went. Am I going to jail? She didn’t take a picture, and I don’t think she had a camera in her car. I honestly don’t know what to do. I feel like crying because I’m so stressed. I’m a college student who is already struggling, and I don’t know what to do.
