I was trying to drive the car out of the garage, when to my surprise I heard a loud noise coming from the back of my car.

What Was That Noise?

Samantha Wynter from Mexico

One of my problems that always puts me in a predicament is my absent-mindedness. When I really need to concentrate, I can concentrate; but most of the time I'm in the moon.

I discovered this problem once I started driving. Well, I'm not the kind of absent-minded person who forgets that she is driving; I just don't pay attention to important things.

For example, when I was learning how to drive, I fell into a predicament. I was trying to drive the car out of the garage, when to my surprise I heard a loud noise coming from the back of my car.

At first, I imagined that I had hit the trash can, But I looked ahead of me, and there was my own, still intact trash can, so I looked behind me and saw that my car had crashed through the wall.

It took me about three months to start using the car again. Since then, I pay more attention to prevent accidents or other predicaments such as this one!/font>
