Driving myself crazy

October 24, 2006

My friend Eli who doesn’t read this blog is moving into his brand new house on Thursday but when I got my claws into him to take me out driving [I find it intensely aggravating that I have to find someone to sit beside me so that I can practice driving, when really I'm not that bad.  I know it must be boring to sit beside me saying "shoulder check", "red light" periodically and everyone has lives too which makes it so much harder to make time], he was gracious enough to say yes.

We went for a short drive to Farhaven, a place where, once he moves there, a solid half of all my friends will live.  This makes the getting of my license even more necessary, as bus service to this area of town is not the best, and I hate having to ask someone to pick me up from the nearest bus station.

I feel a weird mix of nervous and not over going for my license again.  On one side, I’m fairly confident about my ability to drive; on the other hand, I wonder what this examiner will be like, and if s/he will find fault in the very things that the first examiner said I performed well.  An aspect of this whole process is very subjective and I do much better when it’s an objective thing, dontcha know.

  1. Aww girl, don't worry about it too much. You're a good driver – and I think that they fail most people the first time they take the test. It's a big step and you'll be fine. The subjectiveness might work to your advantage – just flash them a wonderful smile Jummy style – and I'm sure they'll be putty in your hands. Good Luck!
