taking a deep breath..

recap of the last week: harry potter (horrible sirius black costume, but great movie :) ), working lots but still want a bigger paycheck.., and rotten person hurting one of my very best friends (i wanna kick some....). yup! very exciting week......

heres my quote for today..

"thats what we do, we fight. you tell me when i'm being an arrogant son of a bitch, and i tell you when youre being a pain in the ass, which is 99% of the time. i'm not afraid to hurt your feelings. you have like a 2 second rebound rate and then youre back doing the next pain in the ass thing. i'm saying its not gonna be easy...its gonna be really hard. we're gonna have to work at it everyday. but i wanna do that cause i want you. i want all of you, you and me together...everyday for the rest of my life." ~the notebook (wonderful movie)

dont ignore red flashing lights.........

so.. this morning went back to the dmv. took the written test and....only missed 4 questions! went from failing twice, the second time failing by one question, to passing with flying colors. yay for studying! but then i went to get the road test. well first off it was a pain to even get the road test today! i went over to the window where you sign up for the road test and they couldnt schedule me til the 28!! i would rather not get my license just barely before my 18th birthday..so i went back to my mom and we sat for a second. then we remembered the sweet lady that we went to last week and she said that if i passed the test that i could go back to her and get the road test done that day. so we found her and i went to her and asked if she could take me now. she said that last week was different because it was a holiday weekend..but she'd see what she could do. it pays off being cute and sweet and likeable :) so she went over to the window and she found that someone had signed up twice for today. so! she was able to take me right then! so i took the car and went in the course in the back. well......good news! she said that i had very good control of the car, good at parallel parking and u-turns and such things like that!........bad news.. i didnt signal as much as i should have. i was going a little too fast in the school zone. and i sorta kinda ignored the railroad crossing..which was an automatic fail..so.. i dont have a drivers license. but! now i now what to expect! and next time, on the 28th, i wont ignore red flashing lights and wont get run over by a train and fail the road test! :/

on the road again

two years ago, end of my sophomore year i went to summer drivers ed. i got an a- in the class. i only missed a couple points on the range. and then that september i passed the road test first try. then i had my permit, got all my hours done.. and then a year later my permit expired.. and now, another year later, here i am, graduated from high school, with no permit and no drivers license.. it just simply hasnt been important to me to get it taken care of. but now that i am getting closer and closer to adulthood, i think its about time i get my drivers license. so! i went to the dmv this morning. its best to go early early in the morning when they first open. we didnt have a long wait, and when we were called up, i explained my situation and all they said i had to do was take the written test over again, and the road test over again, and i could instantly get my license! so i got excited and thought that i could get my license today. well i went to take the test and well..i'm a little rustier than i thought i was..it throws a lot of curveball questions that caught me off guard.. so i failed the test. but you get three tries! so i tried again!..and i failed a second time..by..ONE..question.. soooo frustrating!! and they can only let you test twice in one day, which i was ok with cuz i obviously needed to study and i only had one more try..so i took a drivers ed book home with me, gonna drive a little bit for practice, and i'll be going back to the dmv on monday. i'll be taking the test again, passing it this time, take the road test, and pass that as well, and, Finally!, get my drivers license! and after i get my drivers license??.. i'll buy a bus pass.
