I never liked driving. I thought I never will.
Although almost all my friends are enthusiastic about driving (or racing) I never felt the overwhelming urge to drive or to move a vehicle. Unlike SOMEONE who had been driving illegally for three years. :P
Mom been nagging me to learn because
1) nobody will drive me around when i'm old
2) dad and her are to lazy to drive me around
I protested that i can hire a driver but oh well, my parents are holding the credit cards in hostage.
SO, i registered under fat uncle alvin chipmunk because he is now holding my L liscence in hostage! wth, what weird games adults are playing now. and they call teenager insensible.
Initially, driving was AWFUL. The worst experience ever. Even worse than the time i was scolded by a mom for accidentally knocking her son down with the luggage trolley.
I naturally have very slow reflexes and I naturally react very slowy towards my surrounding. I've already banged the poles, the road divider and almost hit a bird. I slowed down because it was right in the middle of the road, but the uncle scolded me for that. wth, people have no compassion nowadays.
But i have the biggest trouble at the slope. My car's engine never fail to die whenever i reach the top and when i going down. Besides that, I had trouble changing gear cause for some reason, my foot always slide off the clutch.
It doesn't help that uncle loves his car so damn much. Apparently, he said I had trouble controling the cluth and AIYO YOU GOING TO BREAK MY GEARBOX LORRR
that's how he speaks. always got the amplified LOH. :O and he enjoys smacking his forehead and shaking his head and sigh in defeat. he pronounce the window as mirror and oil as OIK OIK.
but his daughter is nice. :) whenever i'm having break, i'll go to her and gossip! I pretty much know most of her family history now. :D very interesting.
Neh, I dont deny what he said because I indeed are having the troubles. so, i started researching.
Student research on the internet to complete the assignments, suiciders googled to learn how to make bombs. Surely I can google on how to drive a manual car too?
Well, I got really loads of great advices! i think i really improved!
and i also asked my buddies for tips! kuan ngee taught me how to control the clutch when driving up hill and that SOMEONE taught me how to balance the clutch and oil so the car can move. although that SOMEONE constantly ejek me. hmph :P and i beg my sister to recite the method to drive up the slope every night so it would go into my thick skull. :)
but thanks a lot ya buddy!
Today, i finally suceeded in driving up and down the slope, side parking and three point turn all by myself! OMG, i felt like i won the F1 race. Wow, if this is how winners felt, sign me up for the race!
btw, when i drive down the slope, i was overwhelmed with euphoria and i started clapping my hands and YESS-ing until i forgot to steer my car . haha, thank god uncle was there.
woohoo! finally i can drive. Although i still look at the gear shift when i change my gear, although i gave uncle a heart attack whenever i forgot to brake when there's an oncoming car, although i always drive out of my lane and although..
GAH! nevermind, i'm proud to be the word worst driver. for now. :)
