Driving...

It's something I should have done a year ago, but I was too lazy. I was scared, and I thought I wouldn't like it. So before I turned seventeen, I decided to get my Learner's license. Drove a few days after Christmas, thinking you know, I'll hate it. I loved it. So much so that I haven't stopped begging mum or dad to take me for a drive. So far, neither of them have been in the car when I've been, driving, except when i drove down the end of the street with mum today.. literally, like.. twenty metres? She's shit scared of the idea of me driving.

My uncle's been teaching me. And my brother's taken me a few times. I love love love driving! Everybody says I'm toooo confident. Gee, not my problem! I just love it! But today, I was nervous for the first time because I drove on a multi-laned main road, and that was a little freaky. Having people tail-gate you, people walking across the road, buses coming, traffic lights going red at the last moment.. and just the environment of having so many cars and things to think about. But it was fu-u-un!

That's one thing I learnt this summer. How to drive. Something I'll never forget...
