i need to put this down in words no matter how lame this sounds but damn it's good news. i passed my driving test yesterday. (everybody says yay!) the entire experience was rather exhilirating right from the beginning. seriously, if you had to wake up at six in the morning just to be at the driving centre by seven in the morning, i bet your head would still be rather groggy from the beautiful Disrupted dream you left from. aaron and i were and it was not a very good thing. upon reaching the centre, i stepped on a cat (not to mention it screamed and Thank God it didn't attack me) and the two of us were whisked off to the main centre only at around seven.thirty. we went in to do the theory not knowing we were the only two of four students, the other two being burmese, taking the theory test on the computer. the computerised test was supposed to be meant more for listening but heck it, we just read off the screen and did the test. so we four students started first and barely into the paper test that the taiwanese were taking, aaron and i stood up and left. we finished the test in ten minutes and guess what? we passed. i scored eighty.seven.point5 when the passing mark was eighty-five. Thank God i passed it on first attempt. aaron passed too so when we walked out, we had heads turning towards our direction and upon hearing of our results our instructor, who so by the way was uber uber worried for us because we hardly done the mock tests ever, was visibly shocked, most naturally. i mean we were too. we studied like crap the day before only, and for such a result- i mean we passed. typical singaporean, pass can already la. i remember that. so we went back to the centre and then we waited. did a few practice rounds and then we went out for a beek steak lunch. arriving back at the centre at around one, we waited for the think-they're-so-mighty examiners to arrive and soon enough we found ourselves in the driver's seat. so we went through the all so familiar circuit- reverse parking, S course both forward and backward, parallel parking, railroad crossing, stopping on a slope, accelerating and then it was all over. i made no mistakes, at least not that i know of and THANK GOD I PASSED! aaron made a booboo on the first station and was somewhat in a state of shock when he found out he passed. well he did too anyway. uhhuh, so that concludes our exciting driving test day. right now, i'm a proud holder of a taiwanese driving license and very soon a proud holder of the singapore equivalent.
