before & after

anyway i am scared!! i am going for my first driving lesson in a month in a bit, and i am SCARED!!!

i have decided that after thursday im going to take a long break from driving this whole sem and not renew my PDL until april and hopefully book a test for june, before my bbdc account expires. should the test date be in june, i will go back to driving only after exams end in april. ok that sounds like a big risk again because i'd only have a month to learn the whole parking-without-poles but if i spam lessons in may i suppose it should be fine, right? besides, with 6 modules this sem i dont actually want to waste time travelling to and fro bbdc anymore, and i really want to take a break from driving. i think its plain sad that i didnt pass on my first try cos that was the only time i had confidence for driving. now the thought of driving tests just scares me.

and you realise i am making plans for my next test already... hahaha driving is a joke.

woohoo!! driving turned out alright. it was quite fun actually cos i had mr chan. yayness. actually i booked shi fu (cos mr chan had no slot available) so imagine my happiness when i saw mr chan's name on the slip. i mean im ok with shi fu but mr chan's still better so. besides, now i should get my $5 refunded.

im just really worried the same thing happens for my next three lessons and i end up getting instructors i didnt book. its ok if i get any of the three (shi fu, mr chan, hau kw) but if i get anyone other than that im going to flip - for obvious reasons.

anyway he was really impressed i could still remember everything after almost a month of not driving. i was really impressed too, but i was more amused cos he told me his story of how he got his class 4 license (apparently theres this school in jurong which teaches that, and its not like the normal driving schools cos the instructors have their legs up on the seat and all that) and also some gossip about the previous g8001 group.

he was saying from the looks of it i clearly didnt like sim kh or ng hl because "otherwise wouldnt have come to this group (g8033)". so true. i admitted i didnt like alex tan as well. i am secretly damn happy alex tan is teaching honda jazz cos no matter what happens i will never get him as my instructor, ever again. GOOD RIDDANCE. he also said a lot of students like shi fu & hau kw very much. i suppose i will never understand how some members of our society function, but it is way more acceptable than if he had told me a lot of students like sim kh, alex tan or ng hl.

by the way, i tried parking without the poles today, just for fun. it felt very different but the theory is the same and, surprise surprise! it still does not aid parking along public roads because they put something else there in place of the poles. -_-"
