Life is like a maze and love is like a riddle
I don't know where i will end up one day
But this is platform for you to stay connected with me
And for me to talk about my life
It may not be interesting to you
But it's a way for me to keep some best memories in my life =D

wooohooo~~~
I PASSED MY DRIVING TEST!!!!!!! I CAN OFFICIALLY DRIVE ON THE ROAD ALREADY!!!!!!
(^.^)(Y)
wahh...the process of the driving test is not like other test/exams that i had before.
it was like fast, short and sweet. =X
about 1 pm, reached and pray at the temple just beside the centre...(pray for a peace of mind) xD
den went in to the centre, get the booking slip, surrenderred IC and provisional license and waited for the start of the warm-up. (that's ard 1.15)
so all along i tot i will be using different car for test, but is the same car that i used all along..
started the warm-up, like normal lesson like that...
but it seems like everyone will give way to u...haha!
everything went smoothly for the warm-up except nid additional movement for vertical parking
lucky i was able to tell if i am about to hit the curb.
the instructor was supposed to park the car back into the "Starting" position.
so one of the instructor from the outside was saying..."park the last one"...
why? because it is "18", "yi fa!!!" the middle empty slot if "14", "yi si (die)"...
LOL! den i aso laugh together...haha! that relax me abit bahx...
den went up to second floor to the second waiting area... (time: 2.05)
i tink i was one of the few who finished the warmup so quickly...haha!
so waited...
while waiting...about 2.20? the previous batch of the those taking test came up to get their results.
because of the design of the room, we wont be able to see who is coming into the room
but we can hear...
and i didnt noe testers will give comments on ur test after that....
already quite nervous le, hearing their comments make it more worse? =X
one of them (i tink failed, =X) was totally owned by the tester...
something like that
"you should master ur basic well first.
you are not supposed to use 1st gear through out the circuit.
your changing of gears is still very weak
i feel that your car is floating and u are not in control of the car.
don waste your money after a few lessons and come for test
people nid 10 lessons u nid double of them"
that's the bits and pieces that i rmb...
and if i am not wrong...i heard someone saying "the instructor is "too good", he never tell me all this before"....
hmmm...this make me thinks that i am lucky to have a good instructor =D
at 2.40, (exact timing for test is 2.45), first person for test is called..
not long after is me..=X
because like so fast is my turn...i tink i forget to greet the tester? =X
all i noe is he said "u will be doing test route 2, no nid to memorise i will direct u...come go to your car"
den i just followed...
i tink he still quite friendly bahx...not realli "Scary" that kind...
so we walked...i get into the car...adjusted seat and mirror...
and that marks the start of the test...
although abit nervous, i still try to keep calm and cool...
until i didnt notice that the sky is turning dark...haha!
1st -- "S" course
nothing much, smoothly passed the snake-like course
2nd -- vertical parking
nothing much aso bahx...
at least i can see i am too far off the curb and did additional movement to reduce the points =X
3rd -- slope (wahhhh ><><><)
damn this is the one that i am most afraid of...=X
and yesh it is one of my "biggest mistake" in my test.
for those who noes, my engine stalled when moving off the slope...
sianed, feels like crying that time...but lucky second attempt can move off smoothly =X
4th -- directional change
maybe is the impact from the slope...although i did wat i supposed to did...i feel like leg shivering? =X
i tink i did calm myself down bahx...
but still something went wrong?
about to turn out...i tink i missed the turning point...it seems like i turned too much out...=X
and i stopped...hoping that my judgement is wrong..i moved forward veri slowly...haha
and yesh it didnt hit the curb =D
** it starts to drizzle when i am doing this....=X
5th -- crank course
nothing much too...although still in progress getting over the slope thingy
heavy downpour..starts...
abit panicky to operate the wiper...haha!
6th -- parallel parking
rain rain go away...that all i wan to sing when doing parking...
started raining heavily....
but i just proceed as normal to do my parking...
(this whole process seems so fast that i was still wondering is the test half gone? )
7th -- out on the street
"turn right go out"...wahh when i hear this...is like half of the test is gone...=X
and when lane -changing i realised i forget to push my mirror back...oh noes...
luckily i spotted early...
before turning out school, i shifted my mirror back...
and the school bus want to turn in when i turning out...
luckily i met this situation before...so i stopped quite early...=X
out on the street....the rain like getting heavier lahx...
while travelling, i realised i tio the most easiest route?...
without U-turn, without slope...woohoo...
that means...not much lane-change...haha!
eh...but i still make mistakes lehx...
about to turn out to the right...
i tot the taxi is going straight so i was prepared to turn...
who noes...when abt to turn he signal right and turned...=X
i tot is the instructor who break for me...=X
and i tot going to fail liaox lahx...><
collecting results...(jus pass 3)
nervous...and i tot i would fail...
tester came in...
u drive quite well...except vertical parking requires addtional movement...
u passed...
i was damn happy lahx!!!...feels like jumping up lorx...(but i didnt)
but still nid to go for some briefing...
i went down to look for my instructor...
haha!!...half-hopping away i tink...
den thanks him alot for guiding me thru this 5 months+
