A Day of Triumph!

Woohooooooo~!~! I did it! I passed my driving test!

It's been almost a month since I made the appointment and I was kind of nervous. I never expect I could pass the 1st time owing to my failure in passing the road rules test the first time and the speculations from my colleague who has failed the test twice.

Since I did not expect to pass, there was not much preparation done. It's just driving anyway. What can I do? I did not even comb my hair properly.

So I wake up early this morning, took a shower and got myself ready for the test. I drove to the testing centre and got there just on time. Filled up a form and there he is, my driving examiner, calling out my name. We went to my car and he asked me to switch on the signal lights and brake lights to check if they were working well. He then got into the car, gave me some instructions and there we go, hit on the road!

It was a pretty smooth ride and I was driving exceptionally slow compared to my usual driving. The two main tasks I needed to do was reverse side parking and 3-point turn (similar to Malaysia except they do it on the road). Otherwise, it was just a usual drive around and back to testing centre.

we got back and I parked my car. The examiner told me everything goes well. I was delighted. He then commented, "You drive very well. Have you been driving for a long time?" I proudly answered, "Eight years!"
