Probationary Driving License Holder.

So I'm gonna type out 2 posts today, lol..
Thanks to this girl here.
:D
So ima talk about how I got my PDL.
(the same fella that has the
epic ability to bang a car within 24 hours of getting his driving license)

I sat for the driving test twice, as the most of you peeps already know.
Failed the 3 point turn during my first test.
(you may commence your laughing now, please)
I screwed up the first turn, shuttup. :D
So the car hit the yellow line when I was reversing out, bahh.
On the road test was a breeze though!
Lol ask me personally if you want more information. :P
It was the 10th of November yo.
The week before SPM, I know how awesome that is.

So I sat for my second test on the... 22nd of December... Yeah, haha.
Almost forgot when.
My instructor picked me up about 7.30, didn't have enough time to prepare properly.
So hair was a mess, it sucked.
Reached there, and got my tag.


I'm in the second session, which is around 10.30 or so. -.-
So I had about 4 hours to rot away, awesome.


Them being busy.


Was so bored, I did something totally out of character.
The following image would explain it.


Yes, I bought a newspaper. :D
Amazing ain't it, haha.
Went to a mamak and rotted away with my newspaper, topped with a milo and a roti kosong.
Or was it syrup?
LOL.
I think it was syrup. :D


After rotting there till like 9 something, went back to my driving centre's office.


See the guy in the yellow shirt knocked out?
Apparently he got the third session, which is around 1.30, LOL.
Poor fella got so bored he fell asleep.
Oh oh, see the white girl?
:P


Finally it reached 10.30, what a wait.
Decided to ignore phone from there on, too nervous lah, so there won't be any pic.
But managed to snap a few pics when I was on the track last time.
I thought about bringing my newspaper along to the car or not, afraid that it'll affect my driving performance in any way.
Weird I know, but that's what you do when you're nervous as hell. :D
Mind you, it's 150 ringgit to retake, that ain't a small amount.


The oh so intimidating slope test.


The track.

When we got
there, the lorry test was going on.
So we couldn't do our test until they're done. -.-
Waited for a good 30 minutes or so.
When it was finally our turn, the fresh candidates would so first.
Means the ones retaking(me included) would go after them..
-.-
So yeah, waited and waited and waited..
Saw a cute girl amongst the fresh candidates, she failed the slope test, poor girl. =/
Okay, moving on. :P
By the time it was my turn, it was around 12.50 or so.
Got a very nice Kancil, lovedddd the clutch.
Did the slope test and the parking nicely.
And then......





The dreaded 3 point turn.
So I proceeded to the 3 point turn course, and kept telling myself, "I did it nicely yesterday during practice, and I would do it nicely again today."
Repeated it about... 5 times in my head? :P
When it was my turn, I drove there slowwwllyy.....
Measured my shoulder with the tyres placed there, and made my first turn.
When I was reversing out, I ease up on the steering wheel, in case I was too close to the curb. :P
Made my final move, and went out of the course..
I passed. :D :D
Heart was pounding like mad during the whole 3 point turn test!
Was afraid the JPJ officer would go, "boy, tarik handbrake, free gear, keluar."
That happened during my first test, so I was pretty paranoid.
Ran to get my test card, thanked and shook hands with the JPJ dude.
He asked me how many times I failed, LOL.
Must've been too happy that time. :P


So went back to the office to hand in the test card, and paid 70 bucks for the PDL.
Just when I thought there would be no more payment.

After passing, with my messy, messy hair.


The test card.


So after the whole thing, went back home, and slept. :D

View of the window from bed.


It was somewhat a load of my shoulder, haha.
Now I have to get some guidance from my dad or something, to make sure that I'm actually qualified to drive on the road. =.=
And after what happened, I think I won't be allowed to take the car out for a drive without my parents' approval, lol..
Ah well, it's not like I can't drive at all. :P
Upcoming post, new year's resolution?
We'll see.
Ciaos.










"I want a small car now, lawl."
