I drove!!

ok, so many of you must be thinking: big deal!

well, ok so i did get my licence about 1.5 years ago..but the only time i really drive is when i am back in singapore.

this time, i didn't really drive till like yesterday. i drove my sister and i down to the airport to pick my mum, dad n youngest sis. it was a little scariee...i mean i never showed it..maybe cept for the fact i drove at the speed limit, never exceeding it, and like way below it at bends..other then that i didn't show it. but i was SCARED i tell you...

i guess i somewhat have a phobia of driving. in a way. cos of my lack of experience. (oh btw i had no problem parking at the airport..miracle!!)
ever since i started driving..even when i was taking lessons, i realized just how powerful a car made you. if you screw up, its not only a damaged car, or the loss of your life, it could also mean the death of others, including total strangers.
yeah, suddenly i could kill without even wanting to.

well, i guess that and the fact that i had MAJOR problems parking the honda stream last summer...i would keep trying to park...up to the point where i got fed up and my dad would park. cos there were too many cars honking at me. haha yes yes what a loser. but hey it was a stupid cramped parking lot near people's park..

anyway, yes, i am happy that i managed to drive there and back. alive. no accidents. no major horning incidents.

gaining confidence.
