My Elusive Dream

Happy... Happy... Happy!
Finally attained my elusive dream...ok, kababawan na to...but this dream is sooo elusive talaga... it's not because I always fail in exams but there were always barriers towards the end of the process. I also attempted to have this in Pinas, but again circumstances at that time did not permit... that's why I consider this dream as very "elusive". But this time, it came very smooth, easy and sweet!

As promised in my last week's post, I conquered my fear! Yey!



The inspector even told me that I'm brave enough to choose this day to take the road test since there were drizzles in the morning and inches of snow piled up on the road. I just told him, "I'll be travelling for christmas next week so I need my license now...(feeling ko napressure sya sa statement na to, di kaya?)".

Well, what I did is I practiced driving from 7am til 11am (tagal noh? kapagod nga eh!) then I proceeded to the driving facility and took the test. I had no difficulty in the actual test (actually, antok na antok ako nung actual road test na...parang pagod na pagod nako kakadrive and yung pihit ko ng manibela swabeng swabe na lang kasi hindi na mahigpit ang hawak ko dahil pagod na nga ako... 2 hours lang din ang tulog ko last night). But I had "near accident" experiences in my practice...like,

(1) Naisampa ko sa curb yung kotse dahil sobrang kapal ng snow...diko nakita na curb na pala yun...shonga talaga!
(2) Huminto ako sa gitna ng daan kasi nalilito ako sa instruction netong mga kasama ko, hahaha! Ang ingay kasi nila eh...nabwisit ako, so hininto ko sa gitna, hahaha! Pasaway talaga...

... yan lang dalawa lang naman ang major mistakes ko while practicing. Sa road test, yung return parking lang naman and slight mistake lang kasi diko nagitna sa parking alley.
