Wow, I can't believe I haven't blogged here for almost 3 months.
Well, Updates.
Yesterday I reached a major turning point in my life - I passed the Practical driving test!
I am now a fully licensed driver.
My closest friends and family will realise how much this means to me and how it will affect my life.
Words cannot describe how excited I am and happy that I have passed.
Although the words Exhilarated, Excited, Ecstatic, Overjoyed and well, shocked all cover it in small amounts.
All day yesterday (from 4.30am onwards) I was so nervous, my whole being felt like it had been put through a washing machine and put through a mangle! I had a long wait too - my test was a later one - 3.30pm.
I got through it, despite the extreme nerves and worry with just 5 minors (1 was attributed to the 'Show me, Tell me' questions, which I totally stuffed up - your mind goes blank when you are nervous. So, really - it was just 4 minors for road issues. Brilliant.
I even had to do an emergency stop at the beginning of the test too (it was my 3rd test - after 2 previous fails and I never had to do one for the other 2 tests!)...which sent my nerves into overdrive!
I am so glad it is all over though, it's not a test I would ever want to take again. It's so stressful, but very worthwhile. It's the biggest achievement of my life.
Anyway, that's the 'Oscars' speech over. LOL
I will be glad when I have my own car...I can do some serious shopping then...Don't think I haven't forgotten about shopping...never!
