»AND I MADE IT.
woah... now its raining very heavily... thunderstorm and all.
well, i manage to pass my traffic police practical test.
i have been very jittery since yesterday. i couldn't sleep well yesterday night. i kept dreaming about stuff... but i did get sufficient rest and my neck no longer hurts that bad.
i was expecting myself to get all nervous and start to shiver and panic. yet somehow i went to a different self... instead i was numb? is that how to describe it? i just felt i had to complete this as right as possible.
yah its just a driving test, why am i so scared and nervous? i have no idea. maybe its different from exams. at least exams you really rely on how well you have prepared for it. but for driving... you have to depend on other factors.
the day you choose, the time you choose. then you ask yourself are you prepared? or at least seemed prepared? then you have to have a good well manageable car. then the tester. does he has a face that seems to devour whatever confidence you have? has he eaten?? is he in a good mood? haha... nah, i was kidding about the eaten and good mood part... our testers are very professional one... kekeeke...
oh yah back to the other factors... then you have the weather, is it fair or rainy?? just now it was fair with a slight sunshine. and now... its raining heavily! gosh... just only 2hrs apart leh. what about those people who took their test at this timing?? and then the traffic. will some drivers go easy on you since they know you are taking your test?? or will they purposely make life hell for you and refuse to let you cut into their lane??
all these all these... arrrggghhh... so i conclude, driving tests are scary because there are many things you can't control... gosh... such a thin fine line between passing and failing.
i was lucky to have a tester who don't look intimidating. i was lucky to have a fair weather. i was lucky when the cars allowed me to cut into his lane during lane change. i was lucky to have a well working car. i was lucky to have people encouraging and giving well wishes. basically... yah that's it...
i am still in shock. not exceptionally happy. more of relieved that this is over. don't have to spend extra money and now that it's over i can spend my efforts on other aspects of my life. :-)
