damn blogger got my painstakingly-typed-out post screwed so i'll just give a super condensed version.
zy got his license today and took me lam and xz out for a drive. went to 85 market to makan and he drove lam and xz home. den i ask him to let me drive myself home and he said ok. so i did. and boy, was he disappointed. lol...
during move off, i forgot to steer right to clear the kerb so i started and the car mounted the kerb instead. instant fail in a real test. @_@ then i moved off too slowly coz i'm not used to that car (damn short legs, damn seat can't be adjusted too front, wearing slippers and foot-slipping-out, clutch/gas sensitivity different, yada yada yada). the drive home was smooth, although i almost missed a turn. luckily there's not much car so we turned in and drove all the way. there was a police car on the other side of the road around 400+ but another luckily, they didn't bother with us. we'll be so dead if they did. i didn't have a license to start with and zy didn't put his triangle plate (of course, lending me his car when he knew i didn't have a license will be taken into account too). it's just a thought but i'll be worse off than he might be. :p
my heart was pounding the whole drive home! especially the moving off part. fumbled way too much but once the car started moving, it was ok. zy commented that my clutch control ain't good and i change gears too slowly. gotta work on those the next time i have my lesson, which is 2 days from now. it's no secret my clutch control ain't good but it's decent enough to get the car moving yea? haha... a lil self-deception going on here.
can't wait for the day when i finally get my own license. hopefully on my first try. if not, then i'll make sure i get more lessons to perfect my clutch control and pass with flying colors on my 2nd attempt.
