Hoshit, I have been unleashed upon the world as a new driver. Watch the ******** out, plzkthnx.
First of all, I MEANT to get up earlier, so that I would have time to get ready and do a bit of studying, but apparently, I hadn't set the damn alarm right. Oopsies. Anywho, I didn't get a change to eat breakfast or anything, so that might have been an addition to my craptacular driving this morning. Hopefully tomorrow, I'll do better after I wake up early to get my day started properly. I couldn't identify any controls or anything out of nervousness. My instructor mad me feel intimidated a bit because of my age and lack of driving skills, but I'll get over that once I get my license. On a side note, I think he's gay....and he reminds me a lot of my friend back home, named Mario. Lol. Anyway, I learned that I should wear tennis shoes and not flipflops when driving. I already knew that, but I was so nervous, that I'd forgotten to do so. Also, I have to work on exercising my legs and ankles a bit more, because my right ankle was killing me after the lesson. XD I also noticed that two of my main weaknesses are that I speed and tailgate a lot. I also don't check my blindspots as much as I should because it feels weird for me or some s**t, I dunno. We drove from Rick's mobile home park to the beach and back in about two hours, obviously taking many detours and parking and such, because it doesn't normally take that long. I get to do it all over again, tomorrow, whee! On that note, I'd better get to studying. Ciao~!
